Check out the recap from our last conference of the year... we are so thankful for all the opportunities, new and past friends that make these events so magical! 🤩

The Deltek is one of my favorite conferences to attend each year. Not only is it because I have many connections who often become friends and…

It’s been quite a few busy weeks, let us share our recent trip out to the Pacific Northwest before the next conference that’s happening this coming week!

We took advantage of being on that side of the continent to visit the one of our clients in-person before heading to the Smartsheet conference in Seattle. Flying into Portland’s newly remodeled, still shiny and absolutely stunning terminal really blew me away! I was spinning around in circles trying to take it all in… what a zen space! (A TSA agent actually stopped and asked me if I was okay, and I replied, “I am just in awe of all this glorious space!”😊)

Making our way up to Seattle, we took the Amtrak Coastline train to attend the Smartsheet conference. The Smartsheet conference was quite impressive, and sessions were informative. One of the better structured conferences as it was well-paced with ample breaks; they give you so much information, it’s a lot to take in. Having more than 10 mins to digest between sessions makes such a big difference! Also, the new wing at the Seattle convention center is delightful! The last night of the conference was such a fun one: pickle ball courts, pop-a-shot, ping pong tables, etc… they really know their users’ type!

Smartsheet is such a powerful tool and has so much potential, hearing user cases and what’s to come for the software was really helpful. I left so inspired and excited about what I could do with the application! In addition to the obvious task management capability, it can help keep training consistent across teams, showcase your data in visually appealing ways, and the automation and collaboration possibilities are endless! (If you’re wondering: no, we are not getting a commission from Smartsheet; these are genuine thoughts of the system) 😊 After attending the conference, we have already been able to put one of the sessions’ topic in to practice… that’s a win!!

We are grateful to our clients and their projects as they allow us these opportunities to experience different tools, learn and find ways to help solve day-to-day challenges! (Quattrocchi Kwok Architects

Bonus visit: got to see the wonderful Gail Kinner and catch up on this trip too! We are so fortunate to be surrounded by so many greats!

Reading is immensely important towards the development of children, mentally and physically. We are grateful to work with partners who share the same values, recognizing and supporting their communities towards programs as such. Bravo, Quattrocchi Kwok Architects! 🙌

It must be conference season! 🏃🏻‍♀️
We just returned from Deltek's ProjectCon in Orlando with many great takeaways and new connections!

🕵‍♀️ With better information, data, and accessibility to that pool of knowledge, Marketing teams can make informed decisions, better target their messages, and support sales and business development teams with collateral that is effective.

Attending Deltek's ProjectCon allows us the opportunity to learn more and better ways to use the system efficiently and effectively. This means greater insights to better serve our clients who use the program, too.

Content Marketing Institute's Content Marketing World last month was inspiring, eventful, and insightful as we knew it would be. We'd like to share some takeaways and highlights, because sharing is caring 🙂

Takeaways:
- AI is a helpful tool, use it to help with mundane or for research tasks as it has the whole history and internet as a resource for reference; it cannot replace 'creative' though. Pass tasks to AI to free up your creative-ability and time! 🕰
- Now more than ever is when marketing professionals need to prove their value. While we all have our strengths, the good news is that if you're not great at something, there are resources/talent out there that can help complement your abilities and push the project past the finish line! 🏆

Highlights:
- networking at in-person events are always prime, and you get out what you put in!
- 🙋‍♀️ ask the questions!! not only may others be wondering the same thing, it also gives the presenter/speaker a break and makes sessions more fun and interactive!

Finally, physically and mentally unpacking from the tremendous Content Marketing World 2023 conference in Washington, D.C. (stayed the weekend to say hello to… | 25 comments on LinkedIn

Ever debated whether or not to use a semicolon? Is it a period, comma, or a colon?! 🤔 This Wednesday's writing hump might be helpful.

Words that sound the same but have different meanings are called 'homophones'. This one is easily confused while used so often, so we shared a tip of how to differentiate the two!

👋 We hope you enjoyed your Independence day holiday.

We happened upon a wonderful article about the best way to take selfies, and realized that this is more relevant to most people than they think! While selfies seem to be something more personal, how many times have you had to take a group photo for work that you needed to be included in? 📸 Work events and gatherings are opportune ways to share your team's culture or community involvement, so it's important when you get that chance to snap a shot, and make sure it's a good one!

Check out what marketing guru Andy Crestodina has to share in this article:

The art of the selfie. Everyone takes selfies it, but some people are better at it than others. Let's take a minute to up our selfie skills. In this ... 24 comments on LinkedIn
