WWW Conference: Unfortunate Announcement

Posted in AlterSage, Events at 1:40 pm by altersage

It is with a great big disappointed sigh that I have to announce that we had to remove ourselves from the workshop list of the WWW Conference.

You may recall how excited we were to announce in July that we would be presenting a really exciting workshop on search engines, their evolution and the adoption of various search techniques. Sadly however we have waited for increased sign-ups, but it seems that the workshops have been slow on the uptake and it is with much sadness that I announce AlterSage will no longer be hosting the workshop at this event.

We have offered to make our slides available to those delegates that had signed up, and may potentially run this workshop again in future on a private basis, interest of course prevailing.

Should you be interested in either or, please contact us and we would be more than happy to arrange.

Another “Sage” joins the team

Posted in AlterSage at 6:31 am by Carla Fourie

The “Sage” team keeps growing :)

We welcome to the team Jonathan Andrews, who joined AlterSage Consultants on Monday in the capacity of eMarketing Strategist. Not shy to dive straight in, Jonathan already published his first blog post on the AlterSage blog on Thursday.

Jonathan is well experienced in the online industry, having previously worked at two online travel companies and a communications company. Before starting his voyage in the online industry, Jonathan obtained a B.A. Cultural and Literary Studies from UCT and a HDip Journalism and Media Studies (Post Grad) from Rhodes. After his studies he travelled to the UK and Canada where he did random jobs where the travel bug lead him.

Jonathan chose the online industry as he enjoys learning and trying new things. The constant new developments in the online industry attracted him, and of course the fact that one can see results from your efforts. In order to stay up to date with the online industry, he enjoys spending time on Bizcommunity.com, Search Engine Watch, emarketer.com, imediaconnection.com and SEOMoz to name a few.

On Friday afternoon we had Charly’s Bakery “mucking afazing” cupcakes and drinks to officially welcome Jonathan as a “Sage.”

We are sure that you can look forward to many more great posts from Jonathan on our blog.

Be sure to join the AlterSage Facebook group to keep informed of what the “Sages” are up to :)
