Envirotech Clean Air, Inc.
Envirotech Clean Air is dedicated to helping people live and work more comfortably in their homes and offices. The company was established in 1988 out of a desire to provide clean, safe indoor air for all people. Today, Envirotech Clean Air provides an array of clean air services, including specialized mold remediation and mechanical hygiene. Envirotech’s training and experience has made us the choice of thousands of hospitals, universities, residential homes, and Fortune 500 companies, throughout New England and around the nation.
I created Envirotech Clean Air more than 14 years ago because of my passion for providing clean and safe indoor breathing environments. Indoor Air Quality is an important national health issue for home and business owners.
Several years ago, I contacted Mage to help us build a strategy and an organization that would fulfill my vision and take advantage of the growing need for our services. Mage’s efforts helped us create an effective strategy that led to dramatic growth and value creation over the past four years. Not only did Mage help our marketing and brand positioning, their consultants worked with us to develop a long-term growth strategy to improve our overall structure and profitability, while also assisting us in the creation of a Board of Advisors.
Mage’s counsel and advice helped us focus on our competitive advantages and position ourselves as the leading Indoor Air Quality service provider in New England. Mage has been a trusted and valuable source of ideas and guidance and a strong contributor to the overall success of Envirotech Clean Air. Mage’s consultants constantly provide us with unique and objective counsel that has become an integral part of our overall business success. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Mage for years to come.

Westport Rivers
Westport Rivers Vineyard & Winery
Buzzards Bay Brewing
“For several years our family had been hesitantly considering establishing a Board of Advisors for our two businesses, Westport Rivers Vineyard & Winery and Buzzards Bay Brewing. For reasons of either uncertainty or lack of time, we did not accomplish the task. This all changed when we came upon the name Mage, LLC from an article in the ” Boston Business Journal” citing the expertise of Mage in setting up Boards of Advisors.
A simple phone call to Jeffrey Davis, Chairman & Founder of Mage, created a flurry of competent and skillful activity. Out of this came the establishment of an extraordinarily qualified eight-person Board of Advisors from which we look forward to meaningful advice and consent.
Mage helped us identify and screen numerous qualified candidates, ensuring that the new advisory board has the experience and industry “know-how” to help us successfully grow our business in the future. Mage’s efforts and help will enable us to continue our success in the wine and beer industries.
All the people from Mage who were involved in the process of establishing the Board of Advisors were, and are, professional and productive in every way. Mage’s skilled professionals consistently exceed our expectations. We truly believe we get more than we pay for from Mage, time after time.
We at Westport Rivers Vineyard & Winery and Buzzards Bay Brewing look forward to a long-lasting relationship.”

“As The Handmade Bow Company worked through some very difficult times, it was clear that we did not have the internal resources to solve the significant problems facing us. At the suggestion of our attorney, we engaged Mage, LLC to evaluate our condition, make recommendations for solutions, and participate in their implementation. It was one of the best business decisions that I ever made.
Mage brought the professional resources, positive attitude, and bottom-line results that we needed to transform the company into a profitable venture with a very bright future. Beyond the immediate problem-solving activities, Mage has also been a welcome source of guidance, advice, and action-based support in all operating areas of the company.
From our first meeting, we sensed the difference that Mage could make and we were not disappointed. We now see Mage as a key part of our management team and have made a commitment to a long-term relationship. I see Mage and its people as quality consultants, experienced mentors, and good friends.”
