A University of Memphis graduate with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, who spent time in the Navy and working for major corporations, Barger understands the operating nuances of Corporate America, as well as the impact “the voice of the customer” has on any organization.
Now, he has become a leading resource in Memphis for a new revolution in the field of online communication, “Social Networking.” He has been sharing his vision of business in the world of Web 2.0 to entrepreneurs and established companies all over the Memphis area. “Social networking is the realization of a promise the Web made in the early 90’s, that the people would have a voice. That promise is finally coming to life with the proliferation of social media and the wide acceptance of social networking,” Barger said.
