Information Technology Advisors    

Guidant Partners is pleased to announce the opening of another location in Lafayette, Tennessee. This new location is a result of the acquisition of an IT company previously located there. We're excited about our expansion and look forward to greater opportunities in this area.

In addition, we are excited to welcome several new members to our team. They include:

Kenny Clayton
Position: Business Development

Kenny is responsible for developing relationships within the community and evolving them into business partnerships. "Guidant Partners delivers cost effective, reliable, and scalable technology solutions to our clients. We manage IT, so our clients can focus on driving revenue and achieving business goals," says Kenny.

Kenny brings the important ability to listen to the needs of clients and prospects, and to communicate, educate, and translate the world of technology in a way that makes sense and relates directly to their bottom line profitability, growth, and sustainability of an organization. Kenny seeks to grow the company through nurturing client relationships, exceeding customer expectations in support, and representing Guidant Partners at community events.

Kenny's wife Sarah is a dentist here in Nashville. They have two dogs named Rocky and Smokey. Besides spending time with family and friends, Kenny enjoys music, UT athletics, and outdoor activities.

Teresa Patterson
Position: Tier 2 Service Technician

Teresa is responsible for providing tier 2 IT support to Guidant Partners' clients. She provides technical support via phone, remote access into client systems, and is more than willing show up on-site for a client if necessary. Her attention to detail and organizational skills bring great value to Guidant Partners. Her strong "customer-first" mentality, coupled with friendly personality, provides quality customer service to clients.

An avid traveler, Teresa is married and lives with her husband and three rescued dogs.

Joey Flowers
Position: Business Development

Joey is responsible for business development of the company and focuses on building relationships and thinking outside the box. His vision is not only to bring corporate business to Guidant Partners in the short-term, but to focus on attracting business in rural America, who often times are with traditional Break/Fix model IT providers or do not have access to an IT provider. This situation ends up costing small businesses in rural America more and he feels Guidant Partners is the ideal solution.

Joey has been married for six years to his wife, Holly, a High School Teacher. They have two small children. When he's not spending time with his family, Joey enjoys hunting, fishing, and ATV riding.
