Strength: SiteCon Concrete Construction – Interfanatic Customer Spotlight

There are two ways of exerting one’s strength: one is pushing down, the other is pulling up.”

Booker T. Washington

Push others down, or pull others up? Booker Washington doesn’t make a distinction as to what he feels is better, but his actions spoke loudly.

The numismatist in me loves this quote because it features a famous American, well-known on common half dollar commemorative coins of the 1950s. Booker T. Washington Half Dollars are extremely common and even circulated as half dollars in the 1950s and early ’60s. It’s wonderful to put a fantastic quote to a coin – to a man who made a real difference in this country.

(And, it should be noted that the finest examples of Booker T. Washington Half are worth thousands of dollars, even though most are worth but their silver value. Great coins!)

So, I ask you: do you pull up, or do you push down? How do you use your strength.

Interfanatic pulls up. We feel successful when we help others be successful.

Strength: An Interfanatic Quality

When we began over 20 years ago, we got pulled up. As you may know, racecar engineer of GT40 fame Carroll Smith came to our founder and asked for a website. He used his strength. He gave us a shot.

20 years later, we’re still paying it forward. We have fantastic customers (along with the Smith family) that give us the opportunity. Whenever a customer gives us a chance to make them our favorite customer, we leap at the chance.

We’re constantly searching for solid, reliable talent. Many of the artists and technicians who have worked with us in the past have graduated to bigger things. It’s sad to see them go, but when they go, we work with them such that it’s a proud moment – we know we’ve done all we can to help them.

We’re constantly searching for great customers. We love helping customers with small budgets earn enough to reinvest in their business efficiently and grow in success. Sometimes, they go – many of the businesses we’ve worked with have been bought by larger companies. This allows the owners, our customers, to live the American Dream, and it’s a beautiful thing.

Sometimes they stay. For 20 years.

That solidity is our strength. We use our strength to help you grow.

SiteCon Concrete Construction: Strength from Mike Nolen

Physicists know (as do those to passed high school Physics) that the force (strength) of gravity pushes us all down. It is the normal force of that beneath us that pushes back against gravity, keeping us up.

Mike Nolen has been responsible for a whole lot of normal force through the years! First with SiteCon Concrete Construction. Nolen’s concrete projects for cities and counties provided strength for public works buildings to support hundreds of thousands of people around them. That’s strength!

Using the success from SiteCon, Nolen bought an even larger, more prestigious firm, and continues to operate Air Pump USA as its President.

The strength to buy another company! That’s the kind of strength we love to see from our customers.

We designed and built a simple but effective website for SiteCon some years ago. It was our pleasure to work with Mike and watch his success grow.

“The strength to buy another company! That’s the kind of strength Interfanatic loves to see from our customers.”

Nolen goes from strength to strength, and it gives us great pleasure to see that strength build.

The Strength of Interfanatic

This week, we channel the strength of Booker T. Washington to continue pull our customers up during these trying times. We’ve only been here for 20 years, but we’ll be here for you plenty more. Unlike our competitors, we’re in it for you, for the long run.

What is stronger than a steam locomotive? Well, plenty – perhaps a Saturn V comes to mind – but in the late 19th century, there was not much. This kind of train (I found this one in Los Angeles, near the LA Zoo) will always symbolize power and strength. As Booker T. Washignton knows, just like any worthwhile movement, like any worthwhile business, it takes a person, then people to push the train until it has momentum – until it’s ready to fly on its own.

Cook’s Doors & Windows Attacks the Internet Market

Cook’s Doors & Windows, a family company serving Los Angeles since 1923, is assaulting the Internet marketplace after 86 years of working with home owners and contractors.

Like many companies re-evaluating their marketing dollars, Cook’s decided the Internet is more effective for lead generation than the tired old yellow pages, so they’ve redone their Web Site with the intent of capturing more marketshare in the 21st Century.

Cook's Doors & Windows' New Web Site
Cooks Doors and Windows

Their site is now a resource to their customers, primarily home owners building or remodeling and contractors, showcasing links to all of the companies that they carry in one easy place, contact information, and even articles about the saving energy and saving money while going through the process of changing doors, windows, door hardware, and moulding.

Have a look at Cook’s Doors & Windows’ new web site, or check it out as one of our proudest projects on our portfolio at Quietus.us.

DandGPaving.com from Torrance, CA finally goes live!

This project is of particular significance to WSmad because, as so many of our clients have struggled in the past to get a Web Site live, D&G had a web site for a couple of years that never got finished by it’s previous designer.  WSmad is capable of providing that extra service that it takes to make sure our partners are happy with what we do and ensuring that we produce ROI for them; not many can do this the way we do it, and certainly not as consistently.  That’s just the kind of service that D&G provides for it’s clients, so our companies really fit well together!

Congratulations Dan and Keith and the whole D&G Team on your beautiful new Web SIte – certainly an industry leader, just as you are!
