About JBS Partners
Founded in Boston
We started JBS Partners in 2002, a year before WordPress was founded and two years before Facebook, while the bursting of the dot-com bubble provided a stark contrast to the years ahead. Our first clients were attained the hard way, by cold calling. The name JBS Partners sounded official apparently because we got some traction.
Over the following years, WordPress grew from a blogging platform to a full-featured website platform that now powers more than 30% of all websites on the Internet. And it is used by such big names as Sony, The New York Times, BBC America, The Rolling Stones, CNN, and NBCSports. It has been an amazing few decades for WordPress!
About Jim Spencer
Previous to founding JBS Partners Jim led technology initiatives as a consultant and an executive at a financial services firm in Boston. Jim started his career as part of the management team that developed an award-winning luxury resort in the Caribbean. The success of JBS Partners can be traced back to Jim’s overriding focus on exceeding client expectations and the ability to translate client needs into technical requirements.
Jim lives in Carpinteria with his wife Wendy.

What’s in a Name?
The name sounded official. The word Partners felt distinguished. Partners, that’s how we view the people we are fortunate to call our colleagues. And our clients are Partners as we work in a trusted advisor role.
