Celebrating Dan Patterson’s Contributions to fivestar* and His Next Chapter at Ingage Partners
After several impactful years leading Simplesoft CRM Solutions at fivestar*, Dan Patterson, VP of CRM Delivery, is transitioning to a new role at Ingage Partners, a fellow Revision Collective company.
Throughout his time at fivestar*, Dan has helped guide the CRM team through significant organizational and industry changes while maintaining a strong commitment to clients, quality service, and the people behind the work.
Among his accomplishments was the introduction of a standardized support and maintenance subscription model in 2024, an offering that continues to provide value to clients today. Dan also played an important role in strengthening the team’s collaborative culture, even as the organization transitioned to a predominantly remote working environment.
Reflecting on his time at fivestar*, Dan shared:
“Our team’s closeness and dedication to our clients is unmatched. I came in as an outsider, and yet the team embraced and supported me as I learned our business and clients. That continued throughout my tenure.”
As Dan prepares for his next chapter, Damian Bolton has stepped into the CRM Director role, helping ensure continuity for the team and the clients they serve.
Lou, President of fivestar*, shared his appreciation for Dan’s leadership and contributions:

“Dan has been an important part of our leadership team, and we’re incredibly grateful for the dedication, experience, and care he’s brought to fivestar. While we’ll certainly miss having him on our team, we’re excited to see him take this next step with Ingage Partners. It’s great to know he’ll continue contributing to the success of the broader Revision Collective family.”
Dan leaves his fivestar* colleagues with a simple message:
“Take care of yourselves, your teammates and our customers, and always do the right thing. Good things happen when we work hard towards the same goals and do it the right way.”
Thank you, Dan, for your leadership, commitment, and the lasting contributions you’ve made to fivestar*. We wish you continued success in this next chapter!
