Something we are wanting to emphasize more and more as we work on growing our business is that in certain cases it really does make sense to “buy local”. The very nature of what we do — design Web sites — is geared towards a global playing field and infrastructure, and we really are happy to work with clients outside our local area (and we do).
However, there’s nothing like sitting down, face to face, over a cup of coffee and talking about an idea, a vision. In meeting with lots of different people in Sonoma County from places such as Santa Rosa, Windsor, Rohnert Park, Sebastopol, I feel like I’m part of a real community, and ultimately we’re all in the same boat together. I like that feeling. It’s exciting to me to know that there are folks living within a 30 mile radius that are going after noble goals and exceeding the expectations of their customers. It’s all too easy to see the hard work and innovation of top companies like Facebook or Apple, and forget about “the little guy” who’s working just as hard and trying new things every day.
So, in the spirit of Buy Local, I’m encouraging you to Partner Local. If you live and work in Sonoma County, or even Napa or Marin counties, I’d love to talk with you and meet one-to-one. An initial consultation is totally free, and I always enjoy the opportunity to share what expertise I can and to ask questions to help you get where you need to go.
