Well, this time I beat Rudi to the punch and got this blog post written before he could ask for it – more than two or three times. As is adequately expressed in Calvin and Hobbes (one of my favorites):
“You can’t just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood.”
“What mood is that?”
“Last-minute panic.”
As I mentioned in my last blog post things have been quite busy for us at Keystone Solutions. In addition to the conferences, projects, and other engagements that keep us occupied we have some fantastic changes coming!
We’re delighted to announce that Jason Thompson will be joining the Keystone Solutions team. Most of you already know Jason from his insightful blog entries, his creative implementation and analysis methods, as well as his depth of expertise working with the entire Omniture suite of products. This is all in his spare time after his tireless activity in the measurement community, his charitable efforts on behalf of the “Charity:Water” project, and of course his stunning photo shoots (the tutu was truly a winner and I believe a Marilyn Monroe shot is still to come?). 
And, aside from all of that, he’s just a fantastic person who tries to embrace one of his favorite sayings ‘Be the change you want to see in the world’.
Jason will be leading our Community Solutions practice – another change here at Keystone. As always, we are constantly looking at ways to improve, innovate, and create success for our clients. One of the areas we seem to be most engaged in these days is tackling the challenges our customers face with an ever-growing community mentality when it comes to reaching a particular audience. It can be intimidating to create solutions that truly drive value, leverage the right data, and facilitate the right insights. And who better to help direct these efforts than Jason? Alongside Rudi and the Technology Solutions group he’ll be helping drive our analysis, social media, and community initiatives as well as continue to help broaden our offerings from a product, implementation, and optimization standpoint.
He will also continue to assist on behalf of the measurement community including contribution to the blog, education services, AnalysisExchange, and his many speaking engagements. Busy times ahead!
So again, we are thrilled to have Jason joining a fantastic team here at Keystone. I’m truly lucky to work with some of the best and brightest in the industry and Jason is a great addition to the all-star team I get to rub shoulders with every day!
Jason will be available to our clients after our Summit and eMetrics attendance, but if you’re going to be at any of the conferences with us, stop by and say Hi or meet Jason and the Keystone team – we’d love to see you there!
