Technology Should Help You Do What You Do, Better
December 16, 2011
Ha Ha Ha! Happy Holidays from IlluminAge
Our recent holiday card sparked conversations and exchanges with many of our clients and friends. But, one comment sent to senior web designer, Aaron Howard, struck us as a core benefit that we strive to provide to those we have the privilege to serve:
“I admire the patience you demonstrate with me as I try to learn this evolving technology. As a Boomer, I’m a digital immigrant when it comes to all this stuff (and I never was good with second languages). I’ve learned a lot for sure, but my boys think I’m from the dark ages.”- Cathy Knight, Washington Association of Area Agencies on Aging
Clients frequently come to us nervous about technology. They may have never worked on a website project before, have little understanding of how their email works, have never been on Facebook, or they have seen something online that they would love to do in their organization but can’t tell if it’s simple or complicated.
That’s fine! We serve clients who predominately work in aging services, health care, and nonprofit organizations. Their strengths in life are the services and care they provide to the communities they serve. Our strength in life is helping them utilize technology in a way that fits their budget and will help them better achieve their goals.
We welcome questions, and don’t expect our clients to have all the answers…if they did, they wouldn’t need us!
