“Complete Business Systems handled all my website and marketing needs…fast! Joanne Pele and Michelle Mizuno are true professionals, taking the time to learn about my business so they could provide the best service possible.

"I am very happy having met Joanne and her team from Complete Business Systems on the net. Finally someone who really understands what the medium sized enterprises expect from a web design company. Easy and simple but very effective and fast solutions, this is what you will get. My ideas of how the site should perform have been realized perfectly. As a bonus I got “on the job training” for their Content Management System, what a great idea. Thanks to the CMS we will be able to adjust the content of our pages easily, fast and flexible and without additional cost!"

"Wow Joanne! You did it again. This last website is the third one you have designed for us and each time, we couldn't be more pleased. Your artwork is exceptional and your design and layout are professional and balanced. This website was by far the most technically and graphically demanding and you delivered even better than we had anticipated. Thank you so much for your professionalism, persistence, patience, and perfection. What more can I say. You always deliver what you promise and even exceed expectations. I would refer anyone who wants a superb looking and functioning website to you any day."

"I want to Thank Joanne and Complete Business Systems for a job well done! I had to get my business up and running within 30 days and had so many other things I had to concentrate on. I needed someone to take my branding ideas and run with it. Joanne brought my company to life by creating for me a branded look I can be proud of. I love the way the branding transitions between the website, the brochures, the business cards and the letterhead she created. It's a complete package. My customers are making comments on how professional my company looks which sets me above the competition. I have Joanne and Complete Business Systems to thank for that. Complete Business Systems has proven to me that they stand behind their work. Thank you, Joanne, for all your patience and hard work! Alan Robinson

"I would recommend Joanne Pele and Complete Business Systems to anyone looking for quality work for a reasonable price in a short period of time. I have been searching for someone who can work within my budget for the type of logo I was interested in and it took about two months until I ran into Joanne. She quickly understood the concept of what I was trying to accomplish and started working on it right away. I couldn't be more pleased and look forward to using her in the future and will recommend her to all my friends and family. Thanks Joanne for your creativity and hard work!!"

I am 110% COMPLETELY SATISFIED and the unbelievable part of it all was the low cost to complete my project! I will be returning time and time again for them to produce other sites for me. I would recommend Complete Business Systems to anyone wanting a state of the art professional website!!"

"Complete Business Systems did such a great job on my flyer I thought of them when it was time for a new logo design. I knew what I wanted was going to be a challenge and they stepped up to the plate and hit one of out of the park. I love our new logo. Thank you for the superior service!"

"At Treasure islands Of Santa Cruz we continue to be impressed with Complete Business Systems personable attitude. When we asked for help with a project that was outside Complete Business Systems normal scope of work, they said no problem. When we needed a business profile written with an almost impossible lead time, they came through like pros. The company is flexible with however a person wants to work, IE: phone, email, or chat. The staff is super knowledgeable about website design, logo design, and are very responsive to customer needs, and creative with ideas that are outside the box. If you like personal attention please give Complete Business Systems a try, you will not be disappointed."

"Extremely professional, reliable, and easy to work with on our website re-design. They had fresh insight and offered expert opinions while maintaining the integrity of our company's look and feel. I highly recommend working with Joanne and her staff to anyone looking for website design and I actually have! My friend needed a website design and used CompleteBizSystems. She had an equally great experience with them, which is a true testament to their capabilities and quality of their work."

"Complete Business Systems went above and beyond to get my site up in less than a week! They really listened to what my needs were, and designed a Flash banner and classy, professional website to coordinate with my existing logo and marketing materials. Michelle and Joanne took the time to talk to me and ask questions about my photography business, and it’s definitely reflected in my site…it’s exactly what I had in mind. I would recommend Complete Business Systems to anyone wanting an affordable, good looking website and personalized service."

"I would like to very much thank Complete Business Systems and my account representative Joanne Pele for an outstanding job on my company website. I had several choices when I was selecting a webmaster. The number one reason I chose your company was the quick and professional response that I received. We were able to establish a relationship quickly and after providing the content, I had direct input for the look and feel of the site. Joanne and the company kept to the deadline that I had and had the site up and ready within 10 days. The key to having a great webmaster is being able to communicate and get the results quickly to the specification. Joanne and Complete Business Systems did just that. I've already begun making sales. Thanks for a great job. I look forward to a long relationship with my webmaster."

"If you are looking for a company to design your website that is skilled, reliable and patient, You're at the right place. Working with Joanne Pele and Michelle Mizuno has been a very positive experience. When I decided to have Complete Business Systems design my website and logo I was skeptical because I had no knowledge of how websites worked but Joanne and Michelle were unbelievably patient. They designed my logo exactly how I wanted it and are still helping me with issues I don't understand. In closing if you are not a computer whiz and need a company that will stick with you until you are confident using your site, Complete Business Systems is your best option."

Networking is Fun!


One of the best ways to make new business contacts is to spend ”face time” with prospective clients. Chambers of commerce and other local business associations usually hold mixers or luncheons at least once or twice a month, which are great for meeting active business owners. While a few people actually relish “working a room”, for most of us, it can be somewhat intimidating. With these key tips you can learn to master and yes, even enjoy business networking. They work for cocktail parties too!

  • Resist the temptation to hang out with people you already know. The point of networking is to make NEW contacts. Spend a few moments saying hello to friends and acquaintances, but then move on to meeting new people.
  • Remember the name of each person you meet and repeat it back to them, as in “What does your company do, George?” or “It was great talking to you, Lisa”. People love hearing their own names.
  • Don’t hard sell. This is a pseudo-social event, so focus on meeting people and learning about them. Save the selling for later, when you follow up with a phone call.
  • Do a little prep work ahead of time. Have a few topics that you can talk about, especially if they’re relevant to your industry.
  • Smile! This may seem obvious, but smiling will make you look like a fun person that others want to be around. It will help to make you feel relaxed, too.
Above all, remain friendly and open to meeting everyone. You never know who may turn out to be a good source of information, leads, or direct business. So get your business cards ready, practice your smile, and go forth and mingle!
