The Sprocket Guys Report Back

Kate Gingold 0 4073 Article rating: No rating

Jim and Don flew down to Palm Beach to attend DNNcon and had a great time networking, learning and soaking up the sun. They also brought back a wealth of information that will be passed on to clients right away.

In fact, the guys found the event so useful and fun that they'd like to bring it back to Chicago next time. Sprocket was one of the organizers at the last DNN event in our area back in October of 2010.

Jim Kendall, business columnist for The Daily Herald, related a too-common story in his post yesterday. He went to the website listed on a business card he received and found an out-of-date copyright, stale blog “news” and a phone number that didn’t work. “Is this business alive?” Kendall wondered. What does the look of your website say about your organization?

Labor Day advertising always seems to feature some burly guy or gal wielding a massive wrench or mallet. Certainly physical labor is hard work, but those of us who wield keyboards and spread sheets work pretty darn hard as well. Even wrenches have been improved to make the job easier, so why not use technology to make your job easier, too?
