The final stretch beckons...

27 September 2010

The last fortnight has been spent trying to knock off the little, usually forgotten, things done. These have ranged from business cards to car parks, to credit cards and system log-ins. The reason why these get forgotten is not because they are not important but because there is an assumption that 'someone' would do it and that 'someone' is usually someone else.

Friday arvo showed a whole flurry of activity as discussions were being raised around specific software and who did what. This was thankfully resolved within the hour with some timely placed phone calls to some key people. I love technology!

The big picture items have been ticked off and as we come onto the final stretch this week, its all about getting those aforementioned details ticked off so that nothing is left to chance.

The team move over this weekend and they came over to have a look today to the new site. Come Monday the 4th of October, it is going to get a whole lot noisier!!

Back to work then.. time's a running!

End of the week...

Friday was all go right from the beginning of the day.

It started off with meeting up Tim Mooney and Madelina about how MaaX assists them in the subscription marketing side of the business. One point that keeps coming through from everyone that I have spoken to is that MaaX has helped them get a better understanding of their business. It provides the transparency and information in an easy format.

The day ended with the monthly drinks here at NZ Magazines in which Sarah invites nominations from everyone in the department for a star of the month award. Then based on the various nominations, Sarah decides upon a winner who gets a little memento and $50 worth of gift vouchers of their choice.

It was a good way to end the week getting to know people away from their desks.
