And so it begins.

A week ago I joined Marqui as the new Marketing Director. And what a week it has been.

Prior to writing anything insightful, I must offer my special thanks to Janet for all her efforts – not just over the past week where she helped me get acclimated with the various Marketing projects underway, envisioned, or of the past – but also for her contributions to the company. Her voice became the voice of Marqui, and her words set the tone for where we are at today. Many thanks.

In Janet’s last post of just over a week ago, she pondered over who would be continuing to speak for Marqui. Yes, I will be posting, but I will not be alone. The Marqui blog is not just about any one person, idea, or concept. We view the blog as our opportunity to connect with and engage our customers, our advocates, and our partners. To this end, there will be many contributors: from Dale Borland, our President & CEO; to Rick Patri, our VP of Sales. You will also hear from another new hire (who started today) in Ryan Stocker who is Marqui’s new Product Manager and your conduit into the Marqui roadmap and our underlying technology. In time, as we grow, it is my hope that others will also offer their insight.

Many of the faithful readers of this blog (as well as many of our customers) may be wondering about the recent changes that the company has seen. Though you have no reason to believe me when I tell you, “All is good” (we’ve hardly met after all), I am confident that in the weeks, months, and years ahead, you will agree with this assertion.

If you ever have any questions, comments, or concerns about Marqui, or if you simply want to discuss the state of Marketing, our SaaS approach, or anything else that is on your mind, please do not hesitate to comment on the blog or call me directly at +1.604.484.8542. Stay tuned, it is going to be a wonderful journey.
