Websites that Google and AI can find.
“We hired Nelson to build the website for Origen Ganadero (origenganadero.com) and the experience exceeded every expectation. In just three days, he delivered a fully fledged, professional website that captures exactly who we are: the brand, the look, the feel, all of it. What impressed us most was not just the speed, but the quality of his work and how genuinely he engaged with the project. Nelson took the time to understand our vision, asked the right questions, and brought real creativity and care to every detail. The result speaks for itself: a site we are proud to share with clients and partners. If you are looking for someone who is talented, fast, reliable, and a true pleasure to work with, Nelson is your person. Highly, highly recommended!”
“The most painful part of the process of building any website is to get all of the information, graphics and details about your company to the development team. Nelson does this through a wonderful interview process that happens quite quickly and captures the essence of your company, your team and the mission. ... The best part is that we can maintain it ourselves using the same AI tools that were used to create it.
... I highly recommend Nelson Inno and Everybody Knows You Team to develop your website. In addition to all the graphic and Internet skills, Nelson has deep roots in creativity and entrepreneurship that are highly valuable.”
“Fantastic service. Nelson and his team took my vision for a website and made it happen. Not only did they execute, but they have provided excellent follow up support as well. Highly recommend. check it out www.buildinelsalvador.com”

I have been a member of his innovation methods meet-up in Frankfurt since 2019, where he immensely facilitates cutting-edge training sessions to professionals from various corporate backgrounds (i.e. Legal, Marketing, Finance etc), highlighting the different facets of innovation. I can confidently say that I am a benefactor of the training led by Nelson. He also assists young professionals in learning new managerial skills.

“Nelson is a free spirit and one of the greatest innovation enthusiasts I know. Working with Nelson has been very diverse and a lot of fun. He has great knowledge in innovation related tasks, topics and methods and moreover has the ability to convince and motivate almost anyone to think freely and creatively. It was a pleasure to have worked with Nelson and I would work with him again at any time.”
“Nelson has a very innovative spirit, he loves to look at things from unusual perspectives. He has often inspired me by thinking about things on a digital scale from the beginning to create processes, spaces or products that can result in both digital and analogue. He knows countless methods, ideas and tools that promote innovation and likes to bring them into play in the most possible and impossible situations. I would be happy if we could work together again soon and turn one or the other business model completely upside down in order to put it back on solid (new) feet in the end.”
