Graduation and Growth:
Mastering the Next Level in Business
Welcome to this graduation edition of The Compass. At JamboJon, this season deserves reflection. It’s a time to turn around and look down the mountain at how far you’ve come. In this edition, we spotlight our recent graduates and how their unique skill set can give your business a fresh vantage point. In our tech tip, we’ll explore the shortcuts that make life a little less demanding. You’ll get to meet our team member, Shanda Aurich, and hear the latest developments in the FCC’s decision to level the playing field with net neutrality.
As an added bonus, we sat down with our mentor and friend, Jonny Johnson, co-founder and owner of JamboJon, to get his advice for those just starting out or wanting to level up their businesses and websites. One of our most recent case studies shows this advice in real time with an older website that needed some attention. Finally, we’ll answer your burning questions about our experience in different fields in our FAQ section. As always, share the love with family and friends - forward them the latest edition of The Compass for insights into the business and marketing world. Last but not least, we wish a very Happy Mother’s Day to all of you mothers and mentors!
