Top 3 Reasons Digital Marketing Rocks

Thursday, April 1st, 2010 by Mariah Hibarger

Mariah Hibarger - WELD Account Executive

What job allows you to Facebook at work, write blogs, produce videos, study Web analytics, optimize Web sites and get to know lots of incredible people all at once? Working for WELD, I get to do all of that and more! Here are my top three favorite things about working for WELD in this new digital world:

1. Variety - Every day brings with it new challenges. I do get bored easily, so WELD’s fast-paced environment suits me just fine. In adventure activities such as whitewater rafting and downhill mountain biking, you have to react to the rapidly changing environment around you; the same thing is true of my job. Digital marketing is as dynamic and fast paced as any other profession in today’s job market. What I’m doing at any given moment is always related to other processes and factors, and daily and even hourly changes switch things up and keep me on my toes.

More and more people are living their workaday lives untethered from any sort of office. They’re called “digital nomads.”

In a recent article in the Washington Post, reporter Michael S. Rosenwald follows these 21st century professionals as they work in hotel lobbies, airports, coffee shops and even poolside.

The quote on the impact of connectivity says it all (my emphasis added):

“Asked where her co-workers were, Moysey said, ‘I don’t know, because it doesn’t matter anymore.’” (more…)

When Work Blurs The Line With Life and Play

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009 by Reid Williams

One goal every person on the WELD team shares is to maintain a healthy balance between work and play.

We’ve each taken the hard road in life, trying to turn what we’re good at and passionate about — the active, outdoor lifestyle, communication and technology — into a successful business.

The WELD team recently wrapped up a web build and content production for a client in economic development — The Woodlands — and it does a good job of reminding us why we chase that dream here in Southern West Virginia.

What comes to mind when you think of West Virginia? (more…)

Get Outside, and Go Ride Your Bike

Sunday, May 17th, 2009 by Reid Williams

Team WELD-NRB Biking

Part of what we call the WELDlife is balancing your quality time in and out of the office. Put another way, one of the reasons we choose to live here in the New River Gorge of West Virginia is because we play as hard as we work.

It won’t surprise you, then, to learn how proud we are of Team WELD-NRB.

Team WELD-NRB is a grassroots cycling team. The idea is pretty simple: WELDers and the staff at New River Bike and Tour Company rounded up riders young and old to represent our area in mountain biking and road races around the Mountain State.

The team hopes to raise awareness of the benefits of a healthy lifestyle that includes outdoor activities, not to mention how West Virginia provides unbelievable terrain for those who love travel-by-pedal-power.

At WELD, we want the world to be a healthier, happier place. We honestly believe our work can help accomplish that goal, and it’s important for us to walk the talk when we’re outside the workplace.

So we bike.

If you’re into cycling, the team’s website also includes gear reviews of all the stuff they’re trying out. (And it works for some of them — we’ve already had a first-place finish!)

Does your office have an extracurricular club? How do you explore your community after you punch out for the day?
