Business is Booming!

I have news! Our company, D2 Tech Solutions, is going to purchase another company!!! Crazy right?!? I am happy, but also nervous and a little stressed. With this purchase, we will gain 119 new clients! We currently have about 210 active clients. So, that will bring our total to 329! In order to manage all these new clients, David is becoming the new Office / Tech Manager. He will schedule all of our onsite calls and make sure all of our techs are where they are supposed to be and doing what they are supposed to do. He will also be our client liaison, and will be in charge of making sure our 329 clients are happy! We have also brought on new techs, which will allow us to better serve all of our clients and assist with their needs in a timely manner. I will admit, I am a little scared. I would never have though I would ever have purchased ANYTHING as big as another company. But, the opportunity was right - and I had to take it!

We took over all the new clients, and new techs yesterday. Things were kind of crazy, but I think it is going to work out in the long run! I think it was mostly crazy because of our insane weekend. The weekend started off great on Friday with a delicious dinner at The Peacocks. Saturday, we all had to get up early to work at my junior league project - a computer lab at the Fondren Boys home! The older girls helped and got service hours for school. There was a lot of painting, and moving furniture, setting up computers and internet filtering. After an exhausting Saturday, I was looking forward to relaxing on Sunday. Unfortunately, my 2 yellow labs had other plans!! The decided to dig out and escape under our fence. Usually, they come right back, but after 3 hours of searching and calling animal control, I finally decided that I had better get with the program and start typing and printing my 119 letters for my new clients. Because the labs had gotten out again, David decided that we needed to put up an electric fence. He and Elizabeth worked hard at getting the fence done, and finally the animal rescue league called and said that someone had brought the labs there. Danni and I rushed to pick them up before they closed at 4. After we finally got them home, we discovered that the internet was down, and all the TVs were out! It seems that in burying the wire for the electric fence, the comcast cable got cut. Of course the cable company never does anything quickly. We did not get internet back until almost the end of business Monday!!! And that makes it really hard for us to do our business!!!! Hopefully today will be better!

Oh, and I promise to post pics from our New York trip soon! We have been very busy as you can see! : )
