SPONSOR MESSAGE
What You Should Know About Moving to 'The Cloud'

“The Cloud”. You see it everywhere. Everyone wants to be there. People tell you that you need to be there. But what is it? Why is everyone talking about it? What does it mean for your business? What is a Public Cloud, a Private Cloud, a Hybrid Cloud? If you are trying to understand all this before you move there, you are not alone. Learn what is behind “The Cloud”, who the major players are, why you should consider moving there (or not), and more importantly, what you need to know before you choose your Cloud partners.

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Socialie Streamlines Social Media Management

Philly entrepreneur Kristin Adams is a social media success story. Yet when she founded her company Socialie, Adams didn’t immediately recognize how many market sectors could benefit from the social media management tools and expertise that her firm provides.

In the early days, Adams set out to develop a social media tool for the sports and entertainment industry, a sector that has limited technology options despite its huge market size. Quickly, she realized that the company and tool she had created could solve a problem that many industries were facing: how to effectively streamline communications and collaboration in the “back of the house.” Thus, Adams was able to open her user base to Fortune 500 companies, small businesses, retail businesses, and franchises across market sectors.
