I almost made it through the day without a holiday post. With a great post already handled by our CEO, I didn't see the need to provide everyone with a duplicate message. That was until a unique event took place in Chicago and I became filled with "Blog Posting" Energy (it's the same as 3 Red Bulls.
Traditionally, the eve of any major holiday provides our Sales Team the ability to catch up on projects, clear out emails, and prepare for a relaxing holiday season. This year was nothing different and as the first members of the team arrived at the crack of dawn, we spawned a couple small projects to keep busy and organize the remainder of the week.
With just a few minutes left on the schedule, a visitor came knocking at 175 W. Jackson Blvd. (that's our Chicago address). He didn't have a white beard, a red coat, nor did he carry a bag full of gifts, rather he was looking for a managed hosting solution and a proposal for a dedicated server. Without a moments notice the Sales Team did what was natural and sat down with this potential client to discuss their needs.
Having current customers, new potential clients, and vendors visit us is quite the norm, but rarely do we have walk-ins and never have we had one on the eve of a major holiday. It was a warm welcome and a pleasant surprise for everyone.
For those of you that live in the Chicago land area and have last minute shopping to do, I wanted to let you know we are open until 3PM and a group of happy joyful Managed Hosting Specialist awaits your visit. You will be required to knock in order to gain access, but with just 3 hours left you have plenty of time to make sure your holiday gifts can include a Linux dedicated server or even a fully managed cluster solution!
Here are a few tips for maximizing your dedicated shopping experience with FastServers.Net.
1.) We don't officially have gift cards, however we will accept pre-payment and provide you with a fully loaded "account" credit for your future purchases.
2.) Gift wrapping is not possible - this will introduce a fire hazard in our data center. However if you want a picture of your server we will be glad to superimpose a digital image and email it to you.
3.) Delivery of all items sold will take place on Wednesday or Thursday of this week, our NOC and deployment team will have tomorrow off.
4.) A dedicated server makes a great stocking stuffer! While you won't be able to actually put the server in the stocking, I will personally make sure you have a picture to present (see Tip 2).
With that said for more holiday cheer please don't hesitate to read the first and original post from our CEO. With that said, please keep in the holiday spirit when rating both BLOG Posts, while we don't expect 10's --> 8 or higher is appreciated!
