A month and a bit ago my friend Harris inquired about doing a website for his company, Seapark. Considering how long it’s been in business I’m stunned that they never needed one before, but I was happy to help. So, over the course of a few weeks, the written input of his PR genius sister and a couple revisions I put together a little site — nothing too advanced at all but it was what they needed.
Harris’ business is industrial glove recycling, which is for the automotive industry (among others) is a big deal. Used work gloves are cleaned, re-used where possible and replaced when necessary. It’s an environmentally friendly practice that helps industrial companies to be ‘green’ and save money at the same time. After all these years, Seapark has a long-term customer base of small, medium and large companies for its services.
The reason for this post is to mention how good their timing was though. A major technology-based company found Seapark’s website not more than 2 days after it went live and gave them a call. After almost 35 years without a website, they got a call from a potentially huge customer in the first two days of being on the web. The timing could not have been better! I really don’t do promotional websites that often these days, but I must admit I feel pretty satisfied that I could help Seapark get rewarded immediately for their decision to put their business on the web.
If anyone reading this actually does call Seapark for more information, tell Harris that I sent you!
