Sitepro Hat Tricks the Telly Awards

Keif Oss — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 15:33:00 -0600

For those unfamiliar with the term "Hat Trick," it's a sports term referring to any one player scoring three times within a single game. If you're like me and grew up on the local ice rink, it's a hockey term. Today's blog isn't about bone crushing hockey action, but instead the Telly Awards. The Telly awards (3oth anniversary this year) recognize the best in local and regional television, web and film production. This year Sitepro was fortunate enough to win three awards on three submissions, hence the "hat trick" reference.

The Science Technology and Engineering Preview at UW-Stout for Girls (STEPS) will be taking place again this summer in June and July. Sitepro is supporting this exciting program by sponsoring two girls to attend the weeklong technology camp.

NoRecessionOnline.com

Mike Phillips — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 16:30:00 -0600

Welcome to our new website "No Recession Online". This website is about hope and optimism. Every day we're immersed in negative news about the economy, lost jobs, housing foreclosures, bailouts... it's enough to keep you from getting out of bed in the morning. Certainly these are real concerns affecting millions of Americans. However, the fact remains that it's not all bad news. There are positive, inspiring stories that we hear every day. I want to share some of these stories with you.

Our company, Sitepro.com, is a website development company. We build websites for a wide variety of businesses. Certainly, not all of our clients are "booming", but there is a significant number that are! Before I go one step further with my story, I must emphasize that the act of building a website to sell "stuff" online is absolutely no guarantee of success. In fact, If you're looking for a "get rich quick" idea, this isn't it.

"No Recession Online" however is a collection of case studies about everyday people who work hard, produce a product or service and deliver that product or service to online buyers. Because we have the unique opportunity to observe this cross section of businesses in action, we see and hear success stories almost every day. Some are small successes while others... hit the ball out of the park!

Because we respect the privacy of our clients, we are somewhat limited in the descriptions we can provide about individual cases though there is enough to accomplish our mission, sharing hope.
