How did you get involved in WordPress? My partner went to a meetup in Utah and met the Blue Host guy, Mike Hansen. He got us looped into the whole scene and we’ve loved this community! What do you do with WordPress? We offer discounted and revenue sharing credit card processing as well as introductions to SMBs needing their sites updated. We also use and work with developers around the world, speaking and giving back to the community. What has your experience with the WordPress community been like? Very welcoming, friendly, and helpful. We have really enjoyed every event we’ve attended. Why did you want to speak at WordCamp DFW? Because Dallas is my home and I’d like to help in my own backyard and keep helping developers and designers grow their business and the community as a whole. Why did you decide to speak on sales? I have been in sales my entire career it is my specialty as design and development is a strength of the WordCamp attendees…I think that I can add value and hopefully provide useful information and help to the community.   What do you hope the audience gets from your talk? Three things they can do better, and three things they can avoid doing; to better grow their business. Tickets are now on sale for this year’s WordCamp DFW held on Nov. 11-12. There are also plenty of opportunities to sponsor the event or help run it. We hope to see you there!
