A Very Cool Shout Out And A Little Validation

Okay…look.

We know that we’re doing things the right way.  Many of you who have come to our events…well, you know we’re doing things the right way.  But a lot of people still have questions and wonder if what we do is really effective for people and companies…or if we’re just a bunch of folks who like beer with a monthly excuse to drink.

Guess what: everyone’s right, and here’s why…

Beer + Networking = Success

Vision Computer Solutions – http://www.vcsolutions.com/ – is one of the companies that comes to our events.

They had a nice little write-up go live yesterday on CBS Detroit’s website over at http://detroit.cbslocal.com/2012/08/07/vision-computer-solutions-moves-to-larger-hq-stays-in-northville/, all about how they’re growing and expanding into a new, bigger location.

One of their folks that comes to our events took the time to drop this note out via Twitter yesterday:

Couldn’t have done it without the talent we’ve happily hired through @ITintheD events:  http://cbsloc.al/Mrjggu #Growth #SeeYouNextWeek

So yeah, we’re goofballs who like beer and write the occasional humorous blog entry…but my wife in particular likes to remind me that I’ve long since screwed up my monthly excuse to go hang out and drink with Bob and Jeff by having ITintheD.com turn into something “real” that actually helps people and gets things done.

So…you’re more than welcome, Vision Computer Solutions (and Kevin in particular – thanks for the shout out), and thank you as well.  Both for coming to our events in the first place, and for helping us help things here in the area get better.  We appreciate it on both counts.

We don’t claim to be the do-all, end-all, be-all resource when it comes to information technology here in the metro Detroit area.

But we think we do okay in our own way.

Hope to see you at one of our upcoming events – http://www.ITinTheD.com/meet/ – like, you know, the one next Thursday downtown, for instance…
