I took the family on vacation to the Dominican Republic this year; a working vacation that is. Lessons learned:
1 - Trust your home-based team to be able to cover for you.
2 - Plan for travel delays.
3 - Don’t assume your cell phone will work outside the US.
4 - It is OK to walk away from BlackBerry for half a day.
5 - Never travel without a flash drive.
6 - Convert cash to travel country currency before you leave US.
7 - Many 3rd world countries DO NOT have free hot spots.
8 - Arrange to have grass cut.
9 - Never stop asking wife to travel light.
10 - Gauge yourself - before and after vacation and learn to stay refreshed long after your return.
What is speed networking? I am glad you asked. Well, for the most part it is much like speed dating; not that I have partaken in speed dating, but from what I have seen ;0 )
Here is a brief article about a speed networking event that took place here in Savannah a few days ago. It was pretty intense. I walked away with about 4 viable leads. And I must admit - it was fun trying to communicate what Nicasio does in 45 seconds.
Check out the article.
I was recently interviewed for a tech magazine article. Well, the day arrived when the article was publish - and as I sat back and read it I could not believe how often the writer mis-quoted me.
Tech Journal South is the publication. If you click on through to read it, please note - I am not 100% responsible for what they said I said :0 )
Lesson learned:
Next time someone writes an article, I will insist that I’d be allowed to proof read it for accuracy~
We are proud to announce the launch of our second A La Carte online order restaurant; Polk’s Fresh Market.
The Challenge:
Polk’s needed a way to feature its daily menu to its customers - outside of faxing it to them.
Solution:
A La Carte online order system! We have facilitated the creation of Polk’s Daily Menu online giving Polk’s customers access to the daily menu, place orders, and optin for future specials via email marketing efforts. So, no more paper faxes! Nicasio Design saving the planet one tree at a time!
We have launched a local Savannah Based non-profit orginization.
Problem: The orginization was not happy with their old design, and needed a way to highlight their main activities.
Solution: Word Press was used to handle the required CMS needs while at the same time we presented them with a new design concept which highlighted their events. The customer is well pleased with this solution.
Take a look and give us your thoughts.
