Hard work, smarts and being a nice guy has its rewards. Nan Palmero become a Partner in Sales by 5
August 27, 2009
Erik Darmstter has a simple business proposition. Hire his firm and he will help you increase sales, hence the name, Sales by 5. Hanging out at the Sales by 5 office is a ton of fun and there’s lots great energy in the air. (Oh, they are also do really great and effective work). Ever since the supposed economic downturn, the good people at Erik’s office have been holding “Pitty Parties.” The idea is for friends and clients of the firm to have fun on Friday afternoons by dropping by for a drink and some good food, provided by a local restaurant. So the Pitty Parties are indeed great fun, and a great place to network and meet new people.
As it turns out, Tuesday was Nan Palmero’s birthday. ( In case you don’t know Nan, then you probably live on Mars). Nan’s works for Erik; but no more. As as birthday gift to Nan, Erik made him a Partner in his firm. And that’s pretty cool. So while this post is not about another startup, it is about the mentality of startups that thinks in the vein of growth and big thinking.
During the Flicks and Food Tweet Up at the Roaring Fork, we also celebrated Nan’s birthday with cake, and of course Erik’s surprise for Nan. The lighting was pretty bad, and I tried to tweak the adjustments to the video output. Regardless, I hope it captures the moment in which we all shared.
Congrats Nan!
