Growing up – making mistakes…
Last week was really a great week. Lots of new membership applications came in, coffee every morning with the boyz, Brian was in town for a trip down memory lane.
There was a first last week, and I really feel bad because of it. No, not the “pity party” bad, just the shucks, I’m gonna kick some more arse next time….
We lost our first consulting client.
After nearly 4 years, a client left us for “performance reasons”. We did everything we could and more to make it work, but in the end, it just didn’t.
It is a very humbling experience. I am still confident that we provide great service and value to our current and future clients (Just ask ‘em). This one just didn’t work out and me pops says not to loose to much sleep over it. Just learn from it, don’t burn a bridge (we didn’t!), and go get ‘em next time.

I think I’m overdue for bringing in some fresh meat…Lemme see what I can do. 
Keep at it! If anyone wants a reference, I can vouch for top notch excellent service.

Member Spotlight
It's been awhile since we had a BootsnAll member stop by the office. However, thank to a recent post on the message boards wondering where the Boots Crew were these days, we managed to arrange lunch with Bideshi, aka Mike (blue shirt below).
With a couple of stints working in South …

Awhile back I posted here about getting into the Boston Globe Travel Show for free. Turns out that was for the trade conference during the day on Friday Feb 19th, not the travel show for regular consumers like you and me that runs from the evening of Friday, February 19 to …
