Why Am I Here?

As I mentioned in my previous post, we have iphones now, so this past week or so has been spent trying to figure out what it does and how this can be useful to us, then how to actually do it, of course. Seems techno challenged hubby is having a bit less difficulty than anticipated, but the kids and I keep getting phone calls or texts asking for help. 

We have a Facebook page now too:

 The idea being that hubby can post while he is in the bush or away at outdoors shows. At least that was the theory. The reality so far seems to be that the pics are taken and then emailed to me so I can set them up on Facebook. We have to change this as it takes some time to do it from my end.

 (This is a lot like hubby and technology)

We expected some results with the Facebook thing, but have been astonished at how quickly so many people are seeing and liking our page. Fingers crossed, but maybe something will come of this.

Why did we suddenly decide to use technology for our business? Well, hunters aren't usually tech savy, but the under 40 crowd is very tech savy and uses it for everything. When we started our business we had identified the 20  to 40 yr old demographic as our target clients. These people are no longer picking up the phone to call, asking for info to be mailed, etc. More and more, our clients were older men, whose bodies weren't quick as agile as they used to be. In short, they wouldn't be clients for much longer.


Of course, hubby didn't hear me, when I'd speak of this, but after a few of our clients spoke about it, he finally came around. The kids and I laugh because he acts as if it is a new idea, and his idea! Anyways, this Facebook thing is keeping me busy updating and learning what more it can do for us.

The next thing hubby wants to do is blog. This should be good, because he hates writing and hates computers. It is also why I finally bit the bullet and started my own blog. First, because I've thought about it for a while, and secondly because he'll be needing help with that too, so I'd best figure it out first. So, if my blog looks different or odd every now and then, it's because I'm messing around with different settings and such.

Wish me luck!
