ABOUT US
Who We Are / What We Do
Aposse is a full service business development and project management company specializing in full business architecture, from soup to nuts and full cycle development from concept to cash flow.
Its involvement includes forensics, development, deployment, management and execution.
Its mission is to discover, develop and deploy exciting commercial properties, whether in-house or as hired guns for clients.
Aposse is differentiated by its method; a proprietary system for clearly identifying and mitigating risk, and by its means; the skill set of the executive team and their ability to deliver results on time and on budget.
The result is a profitable development and management company, delivering portfolio-type projects which meet or exceed expectations.
Management
Aposse Partners is managed by John Alphonse Lage and a team of engineers, financial professionals, producers and analysts from around the nation.
John Alphonse Lage
John is a 30-year Marcom veteran, media producer and entrepreneurial businessman. In addition to his own interests, John consults on a variety of projects for others including startups in entertainment, clean energy, manufacturing, real estate, consumer goods and turnaround. He has led several projects and also worked as part of a team. He's lectured on future trends in distribution and particular economies of scale.
Creative executive, producer and analyst, John has acquired over 25 years in film and television, working for NBC, New World, and New Line on development, product mix and marketing.
Starting CMC Multimedia in 1995, John has been involved in every aspect of multimedia, from concept to cash flow. CMC owns a slate of commercial and theatrical development properties, as well as a library of titles.
John is a Six Sigma disciple of the Wharton Method. On the other hand, nothing takes the place of good common sense and attention to detail. Adept at concept, planning and execution, John specializes in modeling, rapid mobilization and deployment, communications and analysis.
On projects of size and scope, John's company, Aposse, tackles analysis, business forensics and due diligence on retainer. Affectionately called a Business Grunt, John's business triage method has been known to get to the heart of the matter sooner than later.
In today's economy, opportunities sell quickly and mediocrity lingers. Nevertheless, getting through the volumes of minutiae in consideration is the challenge.
Almost like battlefield triage, Lage and team have made a name for themselves as being able to take large amounts of information, from a variety of sources, and consolidate and deliver that information in easy to read cliff notes style.
John and Aposse are always looking to meet new clients and explore a challenging new assignment.
