Working on Vacation Is Great!
This week I am on vacation in Jackson Hole, WY and Wynn and Jim are both in San Antonio at Sea World. You would think that having all three of the Squeejee founders on vacation at the same time would be a problem but it’s not. Today I received two phone calls from perspective customers (it’s always great when they call you :). I promptly returned both calls and closed one deal right over the phone with the other still in the pipe. I pulled out my Mac, shot off an e-mail to Wynn and Jim, setup a call with the client for tomorrow and BAM we are off and running with a new client. There has never been a better time to be a small business owner! With the prevalence of cell coverage and high-speed internet access you can do business anywhere and you can’t beat the view.
Tweet Tweet
Not long ago there wasn’t a Tweet to be heard among the Squeejee team. To tell you the truth I just didn’t get the point. I finally broke down about a month ago and I am hooked. The Squeejee team exploded in a cacophony of Twitter Tweets while we were in Portland, OR for RailsConf. It was great to be able to see what each member of the team was doing at any given moment. I knew what sessions the guys were in, whether they were good or bad, what bar to go to and even who was winning Werewolf. Doesn’t sound like much but it was. Twitter augmented our communications while we were at the conference and it allows you to see a more personal side of your employees. I now find Twitter a part of my daily routine. The only problem is that Twitter is always down! Hopefully Twitter will get their act together, if not this new Microblogger will be tweeting elsewhere.
