The Company

Honest Intentions is a brand of Doug Skinner.  He believes the company fulfills its mission on the guiding principles of honesty and integrity.

This principle of honesty led to driving a business strategy to represent ImHONEST.com as its first product. ImHONEST is a unique lost and found recovery service that allows owners of lost mobile devices to recover them through action of an honest stranger. It has since become part of a successor company under the banner, Return.me Doug sees an immense upside potential of reinforcing such a value like honesty.

Going back to the topic of helping mobile device owners, you may remember the days when cell phones were for voice calls. There were no smartphones. Your company issued you a laptop. Your access to the network, the applications, and the data was managed by the corporation. Then came blackberries, then maybe you carried two devices, one personal and one corporate. Things got complicated.

Now days, with the advance of trends like massive security breaches, Software as a Service, Platform as a Service, Big Data, Internet of Things, bring your own device (BYOD), there has been plenty of uncertainty lately. Recent work efforts at Intentional Management have been to simplify the process that companies go through to support their employees, partners, suppliers and customers using cloud services and hand held devices.

He can develop and implement a cohesive go-to-market partner or direct sales strategy for early stage, high growth, and small firms that make value-based offerings to SMB companies in cloud computing and cybersecurity.

Doug’s career is marked by a mastery of all phases of business development challenges, including conceptualization, strategy, pursuing partner and customer opportunities, negotiation, cost cutting, operational optimization, leadership, resource management, market penetration, and expansion.

Doug worked with business owners, IT and software professionals for top companies, Microsoft, Siemens, and Cisco Systems.

His current company offers software and integration services for businesses seeking productivity gains from appropriate architecture, security, and connections between legacy systems, cloud services, and mobile devices with an eye towards reaching key business milestones.

His firm offers integration services, software enablement, consulting on IT solutions, networking, systems maintenance, technology planning, and computer services that can increase productivity, cuts costs dramatically, assure safe and secure operations, and improve work-life balance for crazy-busy executives.

He has been known earlier in his career as ‘cash flow’ Skinner because of his ability to spot financial opportunities, inspire trust and focus on growing the bottom line by increasing sales, attracting new customers, caring for existing ones, improving business processes, and managing risks.

His pastimes are having time to spend with family attending a baseball game or sinking balls on the golf course—in the cup, not the water. You might find him cheering on his hometown Athletics baseball team, or attending a home game at the SF Giants, Yankees or Dodgers ballparks.
