Author-it Milestone Party, July 2008
July was a special month for the team here at Author-it. After several years of rapid growth, in July of this year the company hit a milestone for sales that was such an achievement that it warranted a party to celebrate!
Now we don’t really need much of an excuse here at ASC to have a party (in fact most Friday nights there is a game of somewhat rowdy Texas Hold-’em accompanied by a few glasses of New Zealand’s famous Sav Blanc..) but this really was a special occasion.
ASC has been growing very quickly over the past few years, making the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 Asia Pacific two years in a row, and looking good for a third. Maintaining such a high level of growth requires discipline, hard work and above all team-work, so for the company to achieve this particular milestone ahead of schedule was something that we were all justifiably proud of.
As part of the expansion plan, the New Zealand HQ recently relocated to plush new offices in Albany on the North Shore of Auckland (situated less than ten minutes from the beach..) and, conveniently enough, right above several of the best bars in the area. After a careful ‘selection process’, the venue was hired, the band booked, and the party was on.
So, in brief, the night was a smash. The food was superb, the bar was free and everyone has a good time. Looking back on it now, the decision by management to hold it on a Wednesday night showed a highly developed sense of Business Strategy…..
