# SnS Network Solutions

**Parent company repository.** SnS Network Solutions is a technology-infrastructure
company for small and medium organizations — networking, Linux systems, security,
cloud, managed services, web, and custom software — structured as a **holding
company** that owns a separate operating LLC per division.

This repo holds the **parent-company identity, legal structure, and the catalog of
divisions**. Each division becomes its own repo (with its own legal + insurance
paperwork) as it launches. Business #1, **SNS Infrastructure**, is active.

## Structure

## How it's organized

- **`divisions/`** = the formal documentation library — the parent-company brief,
  the polished one-page brief for each division, plus the holding-company legal plan
  and investment research.
- **`businesses/`** = the working area: scaffold, research, TODO, branding, and (later)
  milestones. Directories are **numbered by importance**; each folder is self-contained
  so it can lift out into its own repo when the division launches.
- **Branding:** all divisions share one identity (navy base) and differ only by a
  signature accent color. Each business folder has a `branding.html` (color sheet +
  a copy-ready ChatGPT logo prompt). Foundation: [`sns.md`](./sns.md).
