Partner Links and Resources
We've got friends, you've got friends and we believe in helping our friends by referring them to people we know and trust. Everyone needs people they can count on and we know you can count on the following people - our friends, to give you great service, great pricing and they'll go above and beyond to help you.
Email Marketing
We love mailchimp and they even reward us for referring our friends. It's a great tool for email marketing and we know you'll love using it. We can help you set up your account and get started. Follow the link to set up your account and we'll take care of the rest. Oh, and the best part, mailchimp is FREE!
IT Support
Marketing and IT are somewhat intertwined, especially when it comes to web design, setting up email accounts, hosting, and computer/network based interfaces. If your network isn't working properly, give us a call to see if we can walk you through fixing the problem yourself. If we can't, we know you can count on our friends at Southern New England Computer Services. When other IT support told us they had us covered and we found out the hard way that we weren't covered - SNECS came to our rescue. Not only did they get our entire infrastructure humming along perfectly, they were courteous, compassionate and truly empathized with our situation - and the pricing couldn't be more fair.

Commercial Insurance
Our friends at iConnexion helped us not only find insurance, but they helped us find the right insurance for our specific needs. And more importantly, they covered us properly and beat our competitors' pricing because they were able to shop around for the best program and price for the individual policy we needed. They even do yearly checkups to see if there are needed changes as well. Doesn't hurt to get a quote just to compare. iConnexion is "keeping their i on your coverage".

Commercial Banking
Who says there's no such thing as a free lunch? Ok so it's not lunch that's free; it's your business checking. Debbie Piorkowski is your "personal" banking assistant over at Sovereign Bank in Lincoln. Debbie puts the "customer" in customer service. When we first met Debbie many years ago, she came right to us to set up our first account - imagine that, a banker who makes house calls! And in all honesty, we've never paid one dime in fees for our business checking account whether the balance was $50 or more than that...no fees, no minimums, no worries...no catch. (hmmm, that might make a good tagline for Sovereign...)

Background Screening
Checking up on people before you hire them is a very smart business decision - can be one of the most imporant decisions you'll ever make. Most people think that a simple BCI check is sufficient but we can assure you that most criminals are much smarter than what a BCI reveals. BCI's only cover the state of residency. RI is a small state and if your potential employee committed a crime in another state, your simple BCI won't catch it. If they've changed their name or give other false information, your BCI won't catch that either. Remember, "the right employee is a dream, the wrong one can be a nightmare." (hmmm, another possible tagline...) Call our friends over at Hire Image and make a more informed hiring decision; it is more affordable than you'd think and that peace of mind is well worth every dime.

Networking that works!
OK so this one is not technically a friend, but when Amber Kelley, Pam Gaglia and I were looking for a networking group to suit our needs, we couldn't find one that only met a couple of times per month. We're all too busy to meet as a group every week and when we decided to form this group, we realized that most small business owners are too busy too. NGRI was born a year ago and we've grown quickly. We don't advertise the group - it's kind of exclusive because we only allow one business practice per area of specialty. We do like when new people join our group, but we're pretty happy with the results - thousands of dollars in referrals passed each quarter and we have a lot of fun. NGRI is non profit, so all the proceeds from our dues go right back into the group to host other networking events and help our members grow their businesses.
Check out our members, and our "go to" friends at the Networking Group of Rhode Island
These are just a few of our friends that we refer our business clients to. We've got lots of friends, so if you need something specific to help you grow or manage your business, give us a call 877-509-7755 or email us and we'll share our "we've gotta guy/gal" list with you...
