Day 1: Meeting With A New Client
This isn't what I had originally planned for day one, but it's not a bad way to start, don't you think? Let that be a lesson to you kids out there:
"Looking to expand your company? Try meeting with new clients! It's an excellent way to find new business!"
It's really that simple.
Monday, we got a call from a company starting a new service who needed some web design and maintenence done. We met in person today after work to discuss some of the details. Kinko's may be your 24 hour office, but IHOP is your 24 hour meeting room. We talked over Dr. Peppers about what this company needs from us. I can't say much more until we see what is in the NDA, but it looks like an interesting project with lots of potential. The potential is in the possibility of this project landing us more projects. It involves working with new technology, and that always looks good on a portfolio page.
If this goes well, it could spawn many "Day" entries. If I'm so busy with clients that I never get around to our list of ideas... well, that would just be too perfect, wouldn't it?
