Jake Roder – Dynamics 365, AI, and Microsoft Partner Ecosystem

Hi, I’m Jake Roder. I’m a serial entrepreneur and Microsoft Dynamics veteran based in Madison, Wisconsin. in addition to writing here on jacrod.com, I run or co-own several companies across the Microsoft partner ecosystem, enterprise AI consulting, and community events. Here’s what I’m up to.


Tapestries Group

Reach out if your team is trying to get real value out of AI tools, or if your dashboards have stopped earning trust. We help small and mid-sized businesses deploy AI properly and build Power BI reporting leaders actually run the business on.


Dynamics User Group

Reach out if you want to join, speak, sponsor, or partner. It’s the largest independent community for Dynamics 365 and Power Platform professionals, built on real answers instead of sales pitches.


The DYN Collective

Reach out if you’re an independent advisor or builder who belongs in the room. It’s a curated collective of the ecosystem’s most credible voices, the people others call before a decision that matters.


Horse Peaks Ventures

Reach out if you need senior hands on Dynamics 365. We work across Business Central and Customer Engagement through portfolio companies, from implementations to rescues.


Pathfynder

Reach out if you want payments that live inside Dynamics 365 instead of bolted on beside it, so finance teams collect faster and reconcile with less manual work.


Bond Consulting Services

Reach out if you need Dynamics 365 licensing, or a partner to own a Business Central or Customer Engagement implementation and stay with you after go-live.
