FAQ
About the Company

Solutionz Innovations is an LLC based in Tampa Florida. TripProximity is the core smart trip technology that powers the various products offered by the Company. The product was first launched in the marketplace in 2015.
The company was formed in the early 2000s as an incubator of a global strategic advisory services firm, the Game Changer Network (GCN). That firm was originally founded by Chicke Fitzgerald in 1996 as Solutionz Holdings, providing consulting services to the top names in the travel industry and working with the investment community on mergers and acquisitions.

The co-founder team also included Mary Jo Becker and George Lynch, who helped to build out the support and marketing infrastructure for the Company. Becker and Lynch are no longer active members of the Executive Team, but continue to provide advisory level support.

How long does it take to implement?

For our venue, event or anywhere tools, it takes literally minutes to install on your website, blog or Facebook page. Once you are done building your tool, you simply indicate that you want to put it on your website and then you can either grab the embed code or you can send it to your webmaster.
If you are installing our dynamic tool in your enterprise system, it may take up to an hour to write the custom script to pass your data to the tool in real time. You will couple that with the embed code and then you will be ready to test. We will assist you with the testing and can even help with implementation if needed for a small fee.
Do you have a Support Desk?
Our Support Center provides a wide range of documentation on the product.
If you are a Level 3 account, we provide phone support. You may upgrade on your TripProximity Portal.
