Founding Partner

The Portal Live, LLC

Born and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Ryan Day earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Kendall Collage of Art and Design in 2004. Embracing his passion for innovation, he opened a successful design firm soon thereafter.

From its inception, the firm focused on providing clients the highest possible return on their advertising investments by creating fully integrated multiplatform marketing campaigns.

Mr. Day draws on his experience to develop elegant solutions to enhance productivity in complex, interconnected consumer ecosystems. Mr. Day works with clients to implement sustainable systems-based solutions that address the ongoing frustrations business owners face regarding low returns on conventional advertising, and inadequacies in the ability to reach motivated consumers.

Before founding The Portal Live, LLC in 2005, Mr. Day studied conventional and emerging advertising models including in-room hotel publications, in-flight print media, location-based digital advertising, intuitive mobile marketing, and social media communications. This provided the guidelines to develop a system that would consistently provide boutiques access to NEW highly motivated consumers, while ensuring hotels enjoyed increased revenue.

Since, Mr. Day has looked to establish The Portal Live as an industry leader in tourist based marketing and interactive hospitality services. He continually follows market developments to effectively incorporate emerging technologies into clients marketing campaigns.

In 2007, Ryan Day relocated to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where he currently resides. He partnered with Priscilla Krammer, who facilitated the expansion of the company in Delaware, subsequently providing access to Florida and the U.S. travel market as a whole.

The Portal Live grew rapidly in 2009 under the supervision of Mr. Day and supported by a team of software developers. They introduced the mobile web-application iPortal, developed to offer the most comprehensive suite of user-friendly features available to date, enabling guests to communicate with hotel management and connect to curated selections of the finest local businesses with the touch of a button.

The company’s revolutionary digital concierge and back-end administration system enables guests to effortlessly access all of the unique services and amenities their hotel and surrounding area offers from anywhere at any time.

Mr. Day remains as a partner and continues to follow the market and drive The Portal Live forward, connecting hotel guests with regional businesses.
