Our Technology Team

Don Cormier - C.E.O. and founder of Doncor.com

Don Cormier founded Doncor.com in March of 1999. As the chief concept developer for many of the projects we are involved in even today, Don still endeavors to bring more value to the customers through his diligent value system and hard work. It sounds old-fashioned, but he still believes there are no shortcuts to completing a job well done. He says, "It is a matter of serving with integrity." Shortcuts will only shortchange the lazy out of their own success. "Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth" (Proverbs 10:4 NIV). It's the oldest recipe in the world for success and it still works.

As a former Vice President of a Toronto advertising company Don learned the value of intense market research. This experience helps our clients reach and even exceed target sales with strategies that connect businesses to consumers  and with lasting results. If effective marketing strategies are what your company needs to connect to consumers, then call 905-714-9222 today and ask for Don.

Don resides in the city of Welland with his lovely wife. A very active member of of the community, Don has worked with many nonprofit organizations such as Meals on Wheels where he served on the board of directors for five years. Currently, Don is working with the Fergie Jenkins Foundation to ensure a greater web presence. With great anticipation for what the foundation is accomplishing, Don intends to continue supporting the organization for as long as their is need.

Don enjoys fishing and kayaking on the weekends and attends a local church group that is very active in the community. Don also loves music, playing guitar and reading. Oh yeah, it's almost impossible to catch Don without an Apple product somewhere nearby. LOL :-)
