I certainly do not recommend his services...disappeared for 30 days straight and has been sued by multiple former clients. There's more, just google him and search deep.

I have worked with Bill Sipper before he joined Cascadia and after he joined Cascadia. He did a great job for us on both occasions. He is one of the quintessential consultants in food and beverage. I recommend Bill and Cascadia highly.
