Grow with the Flow
AE Enlists BlueTie Email Service

You know that old saying, "Go with the flow." We're taking that a step further. You have to know how and when to "grow with flow" in the ever changing world of technology. In this instance the word "grow" translates into "learning and sharing knowledge to improve services."

When we started creating websites in 1999, the Internet was young. Individual website owners--even big companies with websites--rarely considered purchasing and maintaining their own servers; they did not have the technical expertise or the funds needed to secure and maintain a reliable and fast connection to the Internet. 

As the Internet grew, hosting companies popped up all over the country with advertising pitches that boasted reliability and customer service.  We worked with several companies as we tried to find high-quality website hosting for our customers, but we were constantly disappointed. It was a battle to find a real person to speak to when we needed one, and one-on-one communication was important to us. So we decided to purchase our own servers and host our customers' websites, providing email service and detailed log files that allowed owners to monitor site traffic. We made a point to be accessible if anyone had questions or problems. We've held to that standard for eight years and will continue to do so.

As time has passed and technology has changed, we are again "growing with the flow." In June of 2005, we made a decision to allow the experts in our field to serve email to our website customers by teaming up with BlueTie (www.BlueTie.com). BlueTie powers email and collaboration solutions for small to mid-sized businesses and Service Providers around the globe. Our customers can continue to have their website email forwarded to existing email accounts, or choose to receive website email online via an Internet Browser. We feel more confident in knowing that BlueTie is taking care of sending email, battling spam, and providing extended email services so that we can go about doing what we do best: building online businesses and providing one-on-one communications as we help build those businesses. 

Every Aviatrix Enterprises business website that we own and operate is served email by BlueTie, and we find their service to be outstanding. We use our email accounts all day long, every day, for many websites, so we're well aware of the standards that need to be met. 

The lesson is simple: Know when to "Grow with the Flow." Sometimes that means delegating tasks to those better equiped to do a job. It can also mean making changes that take time and effort.

If you're a person who becomes angry or frustrated when you need to deal with change, remember that the world is ever-changing and advancing, especially in the field of technology. A little effort and patience here and there is usually worth it in the long run. At Aviatrix Enterprises, we're constantly working behind the scenes on your behalf.  Your hosting dollars are reinvested in monitoring, maintenance . . . and change when it's necessary to grow with the flow.
