📰 AS FEATURED IN
📰 The Paramus Pennysaver
A quarter-page advertisement in the March 2002 issue. We wrote the article ourselves and submitted it as “editorial content.” They ran it. We have a laminated copy in the office.
Page 14, below the Lost Dog notices.
📺 Local Cable Access Ch. 47
Dwayne appeared for 4 minutes on “Tech Talk with Herb” in November 2002. He explained what a firewall is. Herb did not understand. The segment was not repeated.
Aired: 11:30 PM. Estimated viewers: 7.
📌 Bob's Diner Corkboard
Our business card has been pinned to the corkboard at Bob's Diner on Main Street since 2001. It is next to a card for a plumber named Sal. Sal gets more calls than us.
Card replaced monthly. Bob charges $2/month for this. Worth it.
🌐 GeoCities IT Ring Newsletter
We were mentioned in the GeoCities IT WebRing monthly email newsletter in May 2002. The mention was: “New member: Suck IT Consulting (Paramus NJ).” We count this.
Readership: ~31 people. We know 2 of them.
