It occurred to me the other day that over the past year or so, we have built up a dream team of small companies who each excel in their own area and work with us to make all sorts of things happen. Since it appears that people sometimes listen to my recommendations, I thought I’d give you what I today termed (in my head) The Dream Team. Now I have termed it, I will slowly add people (And I have a few more in mind who are currently basking in the glow of my love for their services)

Jadoo Limited

Nicola and I met a while ago and I was immediately impressed by her open sharing of knowledge and her passion for web standards. She now runs Jadoo, which helps people get their websites found on search engines. I know for a fact that she knows her stuff because I have seen some sites she’s worked on and how much traffic they generate.

Covered Co

Julia French has recently be joined by Whitney Sones to further build on Julia’s solo empire as marketer for the startups. I am yet to meet a customer of theirs that doesn’t spent the first half hour talking to you about how much they LOVE Julia… Even when she threatens them with the hatred of her daughter unless they get their stuff sorted IMMEDIATELY. Coveredco are experts in helping you find what makes you unique and making that abundantly clear to everyone around you. A massively valuable service and one I love being involved in.

Code to Customer

Nik, Oli and I worked together on PlanHQ, where we first discovered our dream team status. I accidentally described Nik as Obsessive Compulsive to a potential client the other day… But mean it as a compliment. They wont stop until the coding is done, and it’s done perfectly. I also like how that despite being uber geeks, both these guys get that their customer’s don’t care about the technology, they care about the results.

Watch this space, I’m currently working with all these guys on all sorts of things that I’m super excited about. I predict a big finish for this year!
