 * Delete. Lacks independent reliable secondary sources WP:RS to establish notability as required by WP:GNG and WP:BIO.  Googling suggests they don't exist.  This article and the one on Paul Raden, another individual connected to Ecount, appear to have been created by an WP:SPA that may have a close connection WP:COI to the subjects for the purpose of WP:PROMOTION.

 * Delete Non notable. Article's claims are padded, for example "is the recipient of multiple national and local awards including Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year" - sounds pretty good until you click on the link and find that it was a LOCAL Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year award (Greater Philadelphia) and was one of ten such awards given out in Philadelphia that year. The New York Times link does not mention him. --MelanieN (talk) 01:24, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
