Where do we go from here?

From the 2006 NotebookSep 12, 2006In Focus

Heading into our sixth month of swimming with the sharks in the website design ocean, it has become very clear to me that I should keep close to the shore, for the time being. There are so many little fish out there like us, that I am waiting for the proverbial hook to hit the water. While we have steadily gained momentum, getting numerous small print and web redesign jobs, we are far from being able to swim with the big guys, not that we are trying to.

In order for those who visit our website to get a clearer understanding of who we are, as related to what kind of studio we are building, I have decided to keep a blog that will let potential clients know what we are up to. Trying to be something we are not is not in our company profile, nor is it built into the business model we created. History has demonstrated that a family owned business can potentially collapse over the strains of differing views. When we initially decided to start DigitalRealm, I admit that [my partner] had to rein me in a bit. I had dreams of a huge company, driven by the changing tides of business, and centered on the great American Dollar. Now, six months later, I am wiser to the fact that being great has nothing to do with being big. Knowing this has made our company more stable and prepared for consistent steady growth.

As you visit our site, keep in mind that we believe in quality first, and letting everything else fall into its place. We are about to begin several new projects, and we also invite you to check out what’s going on here in our blog section.
