The Alma Mater
Our beloved, blessed ASU just ordered! We’re really excited because it’s one of the largest Universities in the country and we have been working on that account for a long time now. 2 in person visits and many phone calls have finally paid off. Thanks, Sun Devils!
I went there for my first year of college and it was awesome. Loved it.
New stores and accountant
Hey all we’ve had some exciting times here at Parker Planners recently. Jesse Dunn is now on board taking care of financial matters. He is studying accounting at BYU’s nationally-ranked program. Welcome, Jesse! See the bio here
We’d also like to welcome Linn Benton Community College to our happy family of college bookstores and Western Oregon University. We’re happy to have you on board and look forward to a long and rockin’ relationship!
R.M. Planner
Hello everyone! We’re really excited for a new product we’re releasing in early August. It’s called the R.M. Planner. It’s a lot like the planner the LDS church gives to it’s missionaries across the world. We have had a lot of requests for this planner so it’s about time we give the people what they want! You can pre-order online by sending us an email on our contact page: http://www.parkerplanners.com/contact.html
Just tell us who you are and how many you want! We will be selling it for $4.99 plus $1 shipping like the other planners. Otherwise check out the BYU Provo and Idaho bookstores and also Utah State. Do you go to another store besides these three? Go into the bookstore and talk to the school supplies buyer! Tell them you need a Parker Planner and they should contact us. We’d be happy to help with that in any way we can.
Take a tour of the R.M. Planner!
Congrats, Josue!
Parker Planners just hired a new marketing and sales phenom, Josue. He’s working on a degree from BYU’s top 10-ranked school of business management and is a soccer fanatic. Welcome aboard!
Right now we’re working on getting into more college bookstores. If the school near you doesn’t carry Parker Planners, go in and request us! All the better if you already use one and can show them an example. Tell us which school it is by leaving a comment on this blog and we’ll give them a call! If they end up carrying our product that’s guaranteed free planners for you and even some cold-hard cash! If you have any questions just email us at plannerlove @ parkerplanners.com <<there are spaces in that email address that you’ll have to erase, we don’t like spam bots
Deseret Book
We are in Deseret Book now! Tell your friends! Starting in about a month our planners will be sold in 24 of their locations and we’re really excited. Right now we’ve been creating a custom cardboard display for them which has proved to be harder than you might think. It’s been really fun, though. Our cardboard engineer has been hard at work for days now.
SLCC
Attention Salt-Lakers: We have a display in the Salt Lake City Community College Bookstore, Redwood campus. This is a great place to pick up your Parker Planner in preparation for the summer term!
New Colors
Parker Planners is changing it up. We are dropping Pink and Purple and adding Dark Blue and a true Red. Before the red was a red-orange so we split the cover into its true colors.
Summit Adventure
Benjie and I are loving the Summit. We’ve met so many cool people and connected with them with our new “social business card” a.k.a. the “Poken”. We got them for free and they’re way cool. Here’s a pic:
You touch the circle thing to another Poken and you automatically have the option of connecting with them on facebook, twitter, blogs, etc.
Summit has been way cool. I’ve met people that traveled from Brazil, Italy, and all over the US to come learn about web marketing. I’ve talked to people from Apple, Microsoft, Paypal, MTV, Intuit, Marriott Int. and lots more. This is the place for cool marketer people in March of 2010.
Here’s Benjie and I with our cool scanner things. There are breakout sessions where people learn more in-depth stuff and our job is to scan their badges as they walk in. This basically is our chance to get to pick out our favorite cool people and stop them in their tracks! I love meeting people and finding out what makes them tick. Its so funny, you feel like you’re best friends with someone just because they work for a company you like. To the best buy dudes: “hey I bought some headphones from you guys!” To the Discount Tire man: “I buy my tires from you!” Kinda silly but it’s more fun than you might think.
Here’s a shot of the huge crazy stage where people like Josh James from Omniture or the CEO of Adobe gives a keynote presentation!!
The stage is hard to see, maybe I’ll get a better pic tomorrow.
Night! Love ya’ll! Keep giving us feedback on the planners and wish us luck with the new Deseret Book relationship!
Omniture Summit
Ever heard of Omniture? DId you know it was started by BYU students and was recently acquired by Adobe for about $1.8 billion? Well every year they have a “summit” where top-notch marketing executives gather to learn about web trends. It costs them $5,000 each. Very luckily Benjie and I will be working the event this year and will get to hear the same things they are!
Wish us luck! We’ll be sure to post the cool things we learn.
Website edit!
We changed the appearance of our website. It’s happier now. What do ya’ll think?
