Posted by Today’s post was written by Alan. He is the Manager of Merchant Operations. He was also our first NETELLER hero.
Only days into 2008, NETELLER officially shifted from a cautious yellow to a speedy green. We were changed; we were bold. And I was asked to be NETELLER’s first brand ambassador. Flattered? Yes. Apprehensive? Definitely.
What? Put myself out there?
I like the company I work for, I believe in the colleagues I work with… ok, if they think this is a good idea, I’ll put my trust in them. Why me? We’ve got a great product and, as my 7th anniversary with NETELLER approaches, I know I’ve been as much a customer as I’ve been an employee.
I soon saw myself all around our office. There was a 5-panel group photo at one entrance, a 3-panel solo shot at another, and, of course, I was on the homepage of neteller.com. Then there was also being the cover on the box of a deck of playing cards. I don’t remember how many packs I’ve given away now. Not just for friends and family, but also to our business partners.
While I don’t find my face around as much as before, I still take pride in being a part of this ambassador team – and our numbers are growing. I’ve shared many laughs and compliments; it continues to be a fun experience.
What? Write a blog entry?
Of course I will.
This is Alan. Alan has flopped the nuts, beat the bonus, and covered the spread (with his favourite team).
