hiring!

Well its been an interesting time across my various roles the last few weeks. Having been on the look out for good people in project management for months agencyside I finally found one, only to be quickly followed by another. This doesn't happen very often so we'll go for broke and have both if I get my way. Looking forward to having a wealth of it however and I know that the account will benefit from it.

For Mydeo we're still seeking developers but have recently taken on a good guy who's going to help shore up both customer and internal tech support. In a start-up world you can't afford to have someone in every role so this flexibility is going to be a great help, take a load of weight off my shoulders and let some of the rest of team loose to get on with other things.

Thanks for all the messages of goodwill and congratulations on the BestBuy deal too, its been a long time coming and raised a few eyebrows. We are working hard at the moment on the very first phase of integration before any of the marketing starts in earnest so the early signs are good although there's lots to be done. Looking forward to a big christmas!

Partnering with the biggest electronics retailer in the US

Well finally after quite a lot of to-ing and fro-ing we have signed the Mydeo – BestBuy partnership deal and it's out there for public consumption. The official press release is coming out from Best Buy today but its already been picked up by TechCrunch, the Washington Post and CNN.

With a long roadmap of developments and further integration that should hold all users and other partners in good stead there'll be lots more to come on this and the marketing efforts that will surround it.
