First Blog Post
Written by CF Professional Services Tuesday, July 20, 2010 12:40 AM
Hello and welcome to the site. Let me start off my first post on the site with a brief introduction. The CF in the business name comes from the initials in my name. I realize it may be lacking in originality but the idea came to me late at night and my marketing genius had shut down for the night. But, being a techie, marketing is something I have improved upon in the 6 years I have been "officially" in business. This all really started as a hobby and a way to earn some additional income. What I didn't realize at first was how much fun I would have doing this kind of work. I get immense satisfaction from helping others and am a confessed gadget geek. I figure this would be a perfect business.
While I've only been in business for a short time (2003), I've been working on websites and web development for over 15 years. I've been an instructor for technical and end user training classes and even have a project management certification. But I also really like to be outdoors playing golf, tennis, swimming, etc so some days are really hard to focus on my work. I got a scooter 2 years ago and ride it almost every chance I get (which has not been much lately). I will post a picture of myself when I find one where I look like Sean Connery.
That brings me to the reason for this blog's existence. In the last 6+ years, I've been fortunate to meet some very interesting people. What started out as a way to help make ends meet has become an unbelievable journey and meeting some incredible people along the way. My goal is to share some of those experiences with others and maybe give a little insight into the inner workings of my business operations. I hope to meet a few more folks in cyberspace (yes, that would be you, the reader).
As you will likely learn, I tend to work on client sites before my own. I do want to hear your comments and have every intention of providing a comment system that works well on this site. However, until that is complete, the best way to leave a comment is to send me an email message. I also use this page for custom design requests but I live in an environmentally friendly city (Austin, TX) so it can be reused for your comments.
Thank you for taking the time to read my first post. More are on the way.
CF
