DigitalFish Media


It always amazes how God works out the timing of things. Short version for all you skimmers: Less than a week after I wrote my last post, I started a new media company with Alan Gower called DigitalFish Media. Now, as Inigo Montoya said, "Let me 'splain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up."

Alan and I have both been offering media services for a couple of years around Midland. Video services, website development, marketing, etc. We've been dabbling in this and that. Through a series of events, Alan found himself looking for a new job. He kept running into the same old corporate HR department run around... and he had just finished reading the book 48 Days to the Work You Love.

That book is gonna get someone in trouble someday.

If you've read any of my previous posts, you know I am not entirely at ease with my new job. I would love to be able to do what I enjoy for a living. Alan was in the same boat, but his boat is sinking faster since he is currently out of a job. We both have the talent for this kind of thing. He has the marketing degree and the personality to go out and shake the bushes. So, we began this new company. I will continue to work my regular job (for now) during the day. Weeknights and weekends I'll help support Alan in the work load of DigitalFish Media.

It's all very new and we are still putting our business plan together. He spent the last week at Camp Opportunity as videographer. We are already contracted as the official media company of Midland Christian Football. We'll be filming all the games this year. Many things are coming together quickly. I'll let you know more soon.

In the mean time, if you or your company needs a web presence or someone to freshen up your old, stale site, let us know. We offer many other services as well. For more information (or at least as much as we know right now), visit our website at DigitalFishMedia.com.
