Year in review: new clients, new services, exciting changes in 2011
It was a banner year for Palmerworks on many levels.
The company filed Articles of Organization and became a Michigan Limited Licensed Company.
Rick retired from his day job to work full time on the business. Since September 1st, he has been making the rounds of local shop owners explaining the benefits of a good website. His work has paid off. He’s signed up many new clients, including a local dentist, two restaurants, and a “budding” entrepreneur.
Our services have expanded. We’ve added a new division: Palmerworks Corporate Services provides newsletters and other communication media utilizing our writing, editing, and design expertise.
