The purpose of this e-mail is to explain the realignment of duties of certain Goldenfiddle staff so that we may enhance our focus on some of the key marketing initiatives currently underway.
The two major milestones within the marketing initiative are development of a new “optimized” web site and creation of collateral documents to support sales and marketing efforts. Content development was, and remains the single biggest challenge for Goldenfiddle and requires a more focused effort from multiple coordinated resources to get it done.
To meet this challenge, we have shifted the roles and responsibilities of a few people in the organization as follows:
Maria has been assigned as program manager for the marketing initiatives and as such will coordinate the efforts of Sales, Marketing and Product with Katty (marketing consultant we have been working with). Maria has several years of experience in marketing and as a program manager and will ensure a good connection between the multiple constituents. In addition, Renee has taken on more of Maria’s product management responsibilities to allow Maria the bandwidth to work on this project.
Brooke will continue to work on these marketing initiatives with Maria and the rest of the groups as well as continue sher work on the User Conference to ensure another successful event. Brooke has already put a great deal of effort into the marketing initiatives with Katty and these organizational changes will allow sher to continue to do so in a more dedicated manner.
Jerica (formerly in accounting) will assume primary responsibility for trade shows and client site branding / sales support. This is an expansion of her current responsibilities and she will continue to work directly with Marloes and the rest of the sales group.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
Angelina Jolie visits country, says something, is better person than you. Next! In a related story, Jennifer Aniston is old, doesn’t know where her trash is, keeps voicemail from old boyfriends and husbands, and gets The Baster. Aaaaaaand, cliche!

The Guardian talks to former child actor Vincent Kartheiser, who plays smarmy (but lovable!) fuckwad Pete Campbell on AMC’s Mad Men.
He lives a simple life, without a lot of possessions, apparently (we never actually enter the house, so he could be making this all up). “People must wonder when they come to my house,” he says. “But I don’t have a car, I don’t have any furniture, or a TV. I’m not trying to welcome people into my life!”
NYT: “Sea explorers probing the depths of the English Channel have discovered what they say is a legendary British warship that sank in a fierce storm in 1744 with the loss of more than 900 men and possibly four tons of gold coins valued at $1 billion.”
