It all started with my first entry on May 15, 2007. It's now been a little under two years since I've started working here and I've certainly learned a lot.
With a few weeks left at the shop and as I get ready to head off to architecture school,
what does the future of the blog hold? Hopefully more bloggers to add!
While I haven't discussed the details with Alex, I might be hired to
write some entries about string trends on the net or business. For now,
the immediate goal is to get our new employees to blog a bit about
their daily shop (good luck if I'll ever get Matt or Maddy to blog on
their own).
You've already met Matt and Maddy,
informally from previous entries, but with the expansion of the
business we've recruited Cassy johnsonas my new replacement. Like
Maddy, Cassy is a graduating viola performance major from Hastings
College but she also brings to the table a background in business
administration (something this shop has desperately needed). Joining us
for a short time this summer is intern Daniel Jacobsen. He has
background in music as well (piano and violin) and is a communications
major at Gustavus Adolphus College. Two fresh perspectives on what goes
on here on a daily basis.
I'll need to get them setup with
another blogger and twitter account. Still haven't quite decided how to
transfer the current account (Corner Violin Shop) onto a new
administrative account for either of the two new bloggers. I've looked
for advice from other bloggers and they all seem to think WordPress
might be a better platform. Probably need to talk to our Argentinian
friend Nestor.
