Gary, Dan and Mike get all 1994 and do e-commerce, here are the notes.

Mission

Provide businesses with websites in a manner that is profitable.
Make it easy to sell whatever products we come up with.

Tasks

Mike: Investigate amazon and yahoo hosting (and possibly inventory) services

Mike: Investigate options at 1and1.com and rackspace.com; get a capable (apache, php, joomla, magento/zencart, coldfusion) server set up!

Mike: Set up magento (or zencart if magento does not prove worthy); either make it cloneable or use multi-store capability.

Mike: Work on Web Apps needed for SCM.

Dan : Investigate "SOE"

Dan : Fire all customers and move to North Carolina.

Gary: Investigate "email marketing"

Gary: Get Michael to do any graphics work we need.

Gary: Harass Mike to get focussed.

Gary: Learn how to spell
Consolidate existing customers
Get new customers
Sell shiznit!

Progress

Here are my most-recent SOE Tips...

Here are Hosting options...

Once I have hosting set up, we can start moving over customers. Possibilities:

Swift Creek Marketing
Dan's 2 web sites and 6 domains
Dan's site to be done August 2007
Mike's zencart base
New customers!

Back after a hiatus. We're reducing scope and focusing on replaceyourfilters.com.

-From Dan: I usually use 1and1.com for hosting. It's $5.99 per year to register a domain and web hosting starts at $3.99 per month.
