Last week, Cassie made a road trip out west to meet with the festival committee and show them all of the features included in Saffire.  They must have liked what they saw because they signed up right on the spot!

We’ve already started on the look and feel of their website and will be training them on the software later this week.  It will be ready to go soon so they can take full advantage of their new online presence before Labor Day weekend.

Our partnership with the Chowchilla-Madera County Fair has been a long time coming!  We first met them at the IAFE Convention in Las Vegas.  We were so happy they joined us for our happy hour, and we really had a chance to get to know Dana and her husband, Peter, over cotton candy cocktails.

At WFA, we were excited to reconnect and tell them even more about what we had done to enhance the Saffire software since the last time we were together.  After several more meetings, we couldn’t be happier to officially welcome the Chowchilla-Madera County Fair to the Saffire community.

Since they current contract was just about to expire, we are working as fast as we can to get their website back up by March 1.  Can’t wait that long?  Okay, here is a sneak peek of what their website will look like.

The Amador County Fair in Plymouth, CA is the newest member of the Saffire community.  We first met Troy at the IAFE Convention in Las Vegas, but really had a chance to get to know him at the WFA Convention when he attended our presentation on mobile marketing.  And the rest is history!

We’re getting ready to launch their website soon to give them plenty of time to take advantage of Saffire’s features and benefits before their event this summer from July 26-29.  Check back soon for more details on when you can see their new site for yourself.

Terry’s name may sound familiar, because he was the lucky winner of our TV drawing at IAFE!  (I’d definitely say we  started out this partnership on the right foot, wouldn’t you?)

Since their event is sneaking up so fast on March 13-18, we’ll wait until after their event to get started on their new site.

Please join us in sending best wishes to Terry and his team for a successful event this year.  We can’t wait to get started!

Please join us in welcoming the Central Texas State Fair to the Saffire community!

We’ve been talking with Keith for a while, but we finally shook hands and made it official at the TAF&E Convention a few weeks ago.  Since then, we’ve crossed all our t’s and dotted all our i’s, and now we are officially partners.

Their new website will be launching this spring in plenty of time for their event August 31 – September 2, 2012. Stay tuned for more updates.

PS. I got a sneak peek at their design this week, and we are taking their look and feel to a whole new level.  Can’t wait to show you soon!

Virgil and Angela are a pleasure to work with, and we’re excited for their launch…soon!

Now, we do need to brag on our friend Virgil for a minute.  He was name the TAF&E Professional of the Year at this year’s convention.  Here is a great article about Virgil from the Amarillo Globe-News.  Congratulations Virgil!

Deep in the heart of Texas: TAFE Convention & Trade Show

After a quick trip to California, we were happy to return to Austin to get ready for the Texas Association of Fairs & Events Convention. It was nice to attend an event here in our hometown, and we can say that these were our kind of folks!  The truth is, TAF&E cleaned us out of … Continue reading “Deep in the heart of Texas: TAFE Convention & Trade Show”

After a quick trip to California, we were happy to return to Austin to get ready for the Texas Association of Fairs & Events Convention.

It was nice to attend an event here in our hometown, and we can say that these were our kind of folks!  The truth is, TAF&E cleaned us out of ALL our boot koozies!  We’ll need to place another order soon.

One of the highlights of the weekend was getting to see so many of our clients here in Texas.  We got to spend time with South Texas State Fair, Brazos Valley Fair and several new clients whose websites aren’t quite ready to show to the world.

But hands-down the BEST part of the weekend was our happy hour on Saturday evening!  Our suite was packed with current clients and, hopefully, soon-to-be clients.  We enjoyed cotton candy cocktails (of course!), beer and lots of snacks.

We also gave away a TV which went to Tanner Moore from the Heart O’ Texas Fair & Rodeo.  Congratulations Tanner!

We wrapped up the weekend by attending the Foundation Night Dinner and Dance.  We appreciate Wes Allison for inviting us to sit at his table.  We enjoyed a night of two-stepping and raising money for scholarships!

It is safe to say we’ve already put next year’s convention on our calendar.  See y’all at TAF&E 2013!
