Good Grade from HubSpot
Not a bad mark. Time to work on an A+.
Despite my best efforts I cannot get the code that hubspot provides for inserting your mark. Where there is a will there is a way. I have done a screen capture to display our rating.

Josman Financial Press Ads by Rachael Shea
It's nice to mix things up a little and show off some print work. There is a world beyond the web.
Here are some tactical retail ads Rachael developed for Brian Davis one of the principals of Josman. My only contribution is that "Davo" and I have played rugby together for Bangalow for 6 years.

Sandy Gandhi comedian, cook and friend
A few years back I had the privilege to meet a local byron bay artist and comedian Sandy Gandhi. We are now friends and as a result I get to help Sandy lose her internet virginity as here self appointed business consultant.Over the next month stay tuned as Sandy and I battle out it out to make her fame spread across the web on a naan budget. My original plan was to register a domain name and host a website but that is so predictable. Instead we are going to beg, borrow and steal every pixel and opportunity that we can find for free.
As a good consultant you need to borrow someone's watch so you can tell them the time. I asked Sandy, "what do you want to get out of me, I mean achieve? The answer: sell some books, get gigs and be the ointment for everyone's humourroid.
Here we go. Sell books. Enlighten Up. A literary titterary published by Melbourne Books is available in books shops, news agents and some gift shops in the Northern Rivers and will be available Nationally on the 1st of September. You can buy Enlighten Up online too.
Next stop bookings. Sandy is always a big hit at any event. Heck for the last three years she has brought the Lion's to tears at our annual Curry Night. If you want to book Sandy email her on sandygee1@bigpond.com or call 02 6687 1005. I will be putting up a gig list soon (if I only had a website to put it on...mmmm... more to come.

Fancy Footwork for Blundstone Canada
Blundstone Canada's new website was launched today. It was a bit sad to see the old site go after five years of faithful service. But, just like a pair of blundstones you can only add so much polish before its time to pull on a new pair.
If you get a chance visit to the new site--blundstone.ca and let us know what you think. Nighean is still working away on some more flash candy for the homepage and there are plenty of updates to do. Another great bush team and blundstone result. All hands were on deck for this one:
- design/flash: Nighean O'Brien
- page cutting/content transfer: Mollie Power
- seo/css/code: Andrew Bleakley
- copy editing: Kaleigh Wisman
- consulting: Jason Ferris
- good clienting: Ian Heaps
