New Branding? I Think So. - Feb. 17th

Good morning Raleigh! As per the advice of some very sleepy friends, I have moved the posting time of this to a bit later in the morning to see how things do.

With that said, what time would you like to see these come through each day? Click the options below to vote and leave feedback if you have any.

• I enjoy keeping people in the loop, so I like to make people aware of updates that I make to the site. Links to the website via email now work and I started work on more marketing materials, as seen partially in the headers in THIS email. Thoughts?

Last Thoughts

Wasn’t that wind yesterday crazy? I am not a big fan of the heavy winds but I suppose if I was a big fan, I would probably blow the other direction… maybe even it out.

If you weren’t a big fan of that joke, check in Wednesday and I’ll do better. See ya then!
