About

Strategic Locations Managing Partners Joe and John Sauer grew up in suburban Chicago. They played state champion-level hockey and devoured every Western novel by Louis Lamour.

Those Western characters the brothers admired had a code they lived by: Ride for the brand. The brand was everything. It embodied trust, honor, and commitment. The brand was something to be proud of.

When you work with Strategic Locations, we ride for your brand and support those values.

Strategic Locations is Joe and John Sauer.
