AnswerConnect Celebrates a Milestone
Last Sunday—on what was easily the sunniest day of the year—over a hundred AnswerConnect employees and their guests gathered at McMenamin’s Edgefield to celebrate a decade of great service, daring innovations and wonderful people. We shared stories, enjoyed some good food, raffled off prizes and, for many of the work-from-homers, met co-workers previously only known through chat. And, since distance has never stopped us before, we set up a live feed for those associates unable to make it. Here are some highlights from the party:
Training Coordinator Erik Baylor, Account Manager Shaw Millerman and his wife, enjoy some burgers.
Business Operations Manager Phil Shen and Client Services Associate Sean Haragan show off their “Thank You For Calling” and “How May I Help You?” T-shirts: two phrases near and dear to a virtual receptionist’s heart.
Senior Program Manager Joe Baker shows off his raffle winnings. Among the prizes were $250 gift certificates to Solestruck.
After a video detailing the rise of a long-distance phone company based out of a garage to an international company answering calls for thousands of clients, Phil Shen and Web Designer Josh Iwata presented Director of Strategic Planning Shaun Clark and CEOs Michael Payne and Monty Wirth with framed prints of our company manifesto:
We honestly couldn’t be more proud of our company. A heartfelt thank you to all the employees and clients who have made this company what it is and continue to help us grow. Here’s to the next ten years!
