Mr. Jo Colman

“Hi-- I run Sussex Directories and the team here working on BuildingPros.com. Our goal is simple: to help consumers navigate their way to qualified professionals...and to help professionals find new clients.

We have three directories: The Building Professionals Directory, the Health Professionals Directory and the Therapy Directory with over 20,000+ professional members. 70,000 people per day visit our sites. Sussex's roots were as a magazine company. We continue to publish Psychology Today.

Before building the directories, I owned and ran Spy, Mother Earth News and Country Music magazines. I'm British (educated at Eton and Durham, BA Hons Economics) but have lived in the US since 1987. Anyone hearing my accent for the first time would be forgiven for thinking I'd arrived yesterday!”
