Our Philosophy

Life is hard enough. Hours are long enough for any business owner. We believe in simplification and trust — that's our goal. Life is about lifting one another up, and that's what Vivere is all about.
Vivere — To Live

About Joseph

Joseph Sutliff is the founder of Vivere Colorado and the developer behind every site we build. Based in Delta, CO, he serves clients across Western Colorado and beyond — handling everything from initial discovery to post-launch support personally.

Background & Experience

Joseph brings a background spanning corporate sales leadership, business operations, and hands-on technical work. His decade-plus as Regional Sales Manager at large corporate entities — combined with a national title in business presentation — shaped a client-first approach that carries directly into how Vivere is run today.

About Mike

Michael "Mike" Olmsted is a professional photographer, developer, and co-owner of Vivere. Mike brings a creative eye and technical expertise that complements Joseph's business strategy and client relationship skills.

What Mike Brings

With Mike on the team, Vivere clients get professional photography, creative direction, and additional development capacity — all under one roof. When your project needs compelling visuals to match the build, Mike delivers.

Why Vivere Exists

After years in corporate sales and operations, Joseph saw firsthand how agencies and large firms treat small business clients — as ticket numbers, not partners. Vivere was built as the alternative: direct access, honest pricing, and a developer who stays accountable after launch.

The name says it: Vivere means "to live." The mission is to help real businesses — the kind owned by people who show up every day — compete online without getting gouged or lost in the shuffle.

Rooted in Western Colorado

Vivere is based in Delta, CO and built specifically for the pace and values of Western Colorado — direct communication, fair rates, and no corporate runaround. We work with businesses across the region and take pride in knowing our clients by name, not account number.
