My organization, Young Entrepreneurs Society, rented a table at the Garlic & Arts festival the weekend of Sept. 16th &17th in Orange, MA. We were ready to launch blinq.info, our community technology center developed website, designed by our workstudy person from Franklin County Technology School. His name is Dave Wiles and he just graduated from high school, but spent the last year handwriting our site with html. The initials stand for Better Living In North Quabbin and the purpose is to connect the nine towns and to be a system for supporting our Center. Be back soon.

I have been working with a web designer/promoter lately and he is mentoring me as to ways of marketing our website. Roy has designed petershamcommon and orangetowngreen and suggests we sell advertising on all three websites and make the ad dollars go that much further for our customers. He has given me a list of 15 ideas for promoting the site. I am becoming more conscious of mentioning the site to everyone who walks through the door (one of his suggestions). I must remember to focus on getting our site and biz center in the minds of everyone in the area that we can capture. Twice today customers came in to make copies saying that they didn't know we exist! We have to work this thing.
The combination of blinq.info, orangetowngreen,and petershamcommon.com has the potential for serving one another to get ourselves more income to run our sites. I hope to get out and try to sell one or two ads soon.
