It’s been a busy Spring so JenTekk is pleased to announce the completion and launch of a second website this week: Terri Howie (dot) com

Terri Howie’s services include Specialty Auto Sales and Auto Financing for credit challenged customers.

JenTekk is pleased to announce the launch of LIDO Skin Care – an eCommerce website solution developed with Joomla 1.5 CMS and VirtueMart.

I met Sarah, A smart, sweet and ambitious young lady, at Bikrams Hot Yoga.
Before and after classes we discussed her goals of one day starting up a company and selling her own line of 100% natural skin care products.
As a friend and business owner myself, I was excited to help Sarah make her dream a reality.
Side by side we took the journey together… discussing what it took to start-up a business, registering her business name, her .com and .ca domain names, securing a reputable host and finally strategizing the development of her website, including the use of Joomla CMS, her site’s look & feel, and possible eCommerce solutions.

Thank you BlueFur for this great little article:
» BlueFur.com Customer of the Week: Jeannette Duguay.
Quoted from the article:
“An avid fan of BlueFur since 2004, entrepreneur Jeannette Duguay (“Jen” to friends) wears a variety of hats.
For starters, she is the owner of JenTekk Web Solutions, a website design and development company. Based out of Richmond, JenTekk has been…”

Lots of good things are happening down at BlueFur. This recently added feature – Customer of the Week – is just one of many to come.
You see, on Feb. 11th 2010, BlueFur announced that it is now under new ownership and that we can expect lots of positive changes, especially in the customer care and service dept.
I’ve always had great response with the customer service – so to read how they are going to turn it up another notch is simply fantastic. Keep it coming!
Congratulations to new owners Ben & Joel. All the best to you and the gang at BlueFur!

It’s that time of year again when the BC Library’s Association starts gearing up for the annual Kid’s Summer Reading Club.
JenTekk has had the pleasure of creating the Kids SRC website for the past four years.
We’ve just received the official news today… that we can make it 5 years in a row!
Kids SRC 2010 Theme: READING ROCKS!

Judging by the above poster, this year’s theme is going to be a blast to design for.
Thanks to BCLA and the great people with Kids SRC – I look forward to working with you again!

It is with mixed emotions that JenTekk announces the retiring of pet project Cafe Yogi.
This time last year I was in the throws of creating Cafe Yogi – a Community for Bikram Hot Yoga Enthusiasts, which included a blog and message board.
I admit, I bit off more than I could chew by trying to tackle a second community – while also nurturing Tazzu – an IT/Business Community that I co-founded several years ago with my business partner Rastin Mehr of rmdStudio.
Long story short, I did not have the time to nurture the yoga community as it needed, and was only able to commit to sporadic blog posts & forum posts, which is unfair to the members.
So, rather than let it die a slow and painful death, I’ve packed it up.
Before letting it go, I did however back up the site (Joomla, phpBB3, and WordPress) and databases. With some interest shown in purchasing it, someone might yet pick it up and revive it.
It’s been wonderful getting to know the very enthusiastic, caring and supportive Bikram Hot Yoga Community. You will still be able to read posts about my Bikram Hot Yoga journey on my Facebook page!
See you there, I wish you all well.
Namaste!
