It's Time to Thank Our Sponsors

The website launched 12 days ago, and we’ve been inundated with amazing feedback – keep those e-mails coming! We want to know what you want more of and what you don’t. We love compliments and yes, we love constructive criticism too.

By now, you’ve seen the ads that appear throughout our website. You’ll be seeing and hearing a lot about Americard Payment Processing, http://americardpayment.com a leader in credit card processing. That’s because Americard is the official inaugural sponsor of the Steady Elevation website. (Thank you, Americard!) If your business accepts credit and debit cards, we hope you’ll give them a try. We’re impressed with their service and offerings and we think you will be too.

Another sponsor whose ads you’ll have noticed, is TalkSpan http://talkspan.com (Thank you, TalkSpan!). They offer a range of attractively priced telecommunications plans – check to see if one of them is right for you.

If your business is in the B2B sector, contact us for information on ad space still available on our website.

We Have a Winner!

Congratulations to Y. C. on winning the Garmin Nuvi GPS. (YC: Check your e-mail. We need your mailing address so that we can ship the GPS out to you.) We’ve had hundreds of entries and one lucky winner; but as we said at the start, what we really want to do, is create an entire community of winners in business where the winning really counts.

Thank you all for participating in the drawing.

We've Launched!

Break out the champagne! At 9:00 PM Eastern Time, three hours ahead of schedule, the Steady Elevation website officially launched.

The website is the product of the combined efforts of a talented and dedicated team that worked around the clock to help turn our vision into a reality.

Special thanks are in order to WEBexpo, our website design and development firm, for taking incipient ideas from the drawing board to completion seamlessly and professionally. The team at WEBexpo worked tirelessly with us to create a site that’s attractive, interactive, robust and easy to navigate. We think you’ll agree!

The countdown is over but the endeavor has only just begun. We’re in for a long, successful ride – come on in and join the action.

Who Said There's No Such Thing as a Free Lunch?

Thanks Joel!

Thanks to Joel Bodek, Principal of Bodek & Co. for surprising the Steady Elevation team with a congratulatory lunch to celebrate the launch of our website at 12:00 AM later today.

Now that we’re all well fed, we can get back to business, which at the moment consists of tweaking, testing, checking and double checking to pull off a smooth transfer from our beta site to the live server.

The Race is On (Not Just the Presidential One)

It seems like just a week ago that we began the countdown to the Steady Elevation website launch, but it must have been more than that since the countdown is at 7 days, 3 hours and 18 minutes at the moment. Suddenly it feels like a race against the clock as the final tweaks are made, bugs ironed out, and cool effects added in --- look out for our Watch the Lesson application where you’ll get to pull up a chair and watch video lessons on a “big screen”.

We hope you’ll enjoy using the site as much as we’ve enjoyed developing it. The best feature of the website, is that it will be your site as much as it is ours. We’ll be asking for your feedback continuously, and relying on your input to continuously develop the site so that it remains a dynamic forum which reflects the needs of the business community and taps the pulse of the growing entrepreneur.

Keep your eyes on the clock, because we’ll be launching sooner than you can say “My, how time has flown!”.
