At the risk of repeating myself...

...I love my job.

This past week I wrote a 2-pager for a potential client outlining the work we suggested and soothing some of the principal's fears about how our methodology could be applied to his small company. (I won't say who until we have a contract, but let's just say they do cool shit for good causes.) Anyhow, as I was writing it, I felt like I was going out on a limb and that the CEO (who I'm partnering with on this client acquisition) was going to edit it extensively. Turns out I was wrong -- he thought it was great. I'd written it as if it was coming from him, but he had me revise it so that it was coming from me, something that I rarely do.

Anyhow, I sent it to the client and today the principal emailed me back saying "This is great -- thanks, Tara. Can we talk on Monday about next steps?" Whoo! So I forwarded that message to the CEO and he responded:

Hi Tara,

Thanks for all your work on this!!!!!!

Sometime in our work with them you get a trip to San Fran on the Firm/Client.

Double whoo! :)

You rock! And your work / job / contribution to society is so interesting....

On a personal note, the more you talk about your work, the more I think a certain small - but growing non-profit IT company could really use your help! :-) Enjoy San Fran when you get there!
