Home from DEMO

The BatchBlue team is back now from our exciting trip to DEMO. It was a whirlwind of product pitches and speech rehearsals. We’ll be posting many stories (and pictures and videos) starting next week, but I just had to share one telling experience.
Sean, Michelle, Adam and I made the cross country trip back from San Diego yesterday. Exhausted from late nights, active days and a fluctuating time zone, I parked myself in the gate area of the Cincinnati airport and checked the blackberry for incoming mail. I had 17 new messages, including:
- Inquiries from venture capitalists
- An invitation from us to speak at an event in NYC
- New Google alerts telling us we were picked up in Inc. and PC Magazine
- A message from the parent’s association at my daughters’ school asking for a crock-pot to use at the caramel apple booth at the upcoming fall festival
It was a fabulous trip. We are thrilled with the great reception that BatchBook received and is receiving. But it is so nice to come back to reality. We will spend the next day or two catching back up with the families and enjoying a little down time. And then back to the business of building our business.
But first, I need to dig out my crock-pot.
Editor’s note: Here’s a video from DEMO where Pam seamlessly juggles work (script rehearsal) with life (long-distance help with pumpkin-carving).
