An inside look at our latest explorations and undertakings.

Last month we celebrated Minnesota Solar Energy Industry’s 15th anniversary with our new friends at a St. Paul Saints game. It was so much fun meeting the MnSEIA staff and many of our fellow members for the first time. These fine folks are highly passionate about solar, and their energy is contagious. (ha…the energy pun never gets old). We can’t wait to help them find their audiences and tell their stories.

Those of you who know our Creative Director, Beth, know she doesn’t take vacation very often. (We encourage her to go, but she’s one of those people who loves her job that much). A few weeks ago, she finally got out of the Land of Ten Thousand Lakes to visit her family in the Land of Lincoln. And because she couldn’t help herself, she jutted over to the Hoosier State to visit a client before returning home. Our client was thrilled to have Beth there in person helping her with some promotional strategy and materials—all things that could have been done remotely, but real face to face is so much better. It’s something we wish we could do more often.

Megan headed to Ashville NC to meet with her AMI agency owners’ group to share wisdom and discuss ideas and trends in tech and the industry. Among the discussions with her smart agency partners, Megan was advised to bring on a Fractional CFO to modernize and strengthen cat&tonic’s financials. Through the AMI network, she connected with one of the best in the business, Sandy Catour. Look out world—a bigger and stronger cat&tonic is coming your way!

But wait, there’s more
