The Brick Wall of Learning Drupal
With just about anything new, there is a learning curve. Getting a new cellphone requires learning a new interface. Upgrading to a new operating system requires the same. Development tools also have learning curves, and Drupal is no exception. With Drupal though, it seems like people run smack into a learning wall instead of a learning curve. People new to Drupal tend to struggle for a long time to grasp the basics and many give up. Why is this?

Cross Training Pays Off
As an Account Manager at LevelTen, my primary responsibility is to bring in new accounts and help grow existing accounts. Whether it be attending specialized meet up groups like the , or general networking events around the Dallas/Fort Worth area, I’m counted on to bring in new business. Occasionally, a client will shift priorities or impose a tight deadline causing everyone in the company to hunker down and put on multiple hats.
LevelTen's Stimulus Package - No Vote Required
It’s official.
We are now entrenched in the worst recession since the great depression, and everyone’s talking about stimulus packages. Bailouts are everywhere: banks, real estate, auto manufacturers, municipalities, home owners and the unemployed. Just about everybody is receiving help - everyone but small businesses. Which we know is the hardest working sector of the economy. We know this because we are one – which is exactly why LevelTen has come up with our own Stimulus Package for small business owners.
