New Company Name

A month ago I announced that The Smart Planner will be transitioning to a new company, and today I am excited to finally announce the new name! My new company (and a labor of love) is Splendid Communications.

Splendid Communications will focus on helping companies in the wedding and event industries communicate effectively and powerfully through online media. Anyone can start a blog, or a open a Twitter or Facebook account, but not many use it effectively for their business.

The Think Splendid blog (which is this one), will focus on advice, insights and best practices for special event companies using social media for business. You'll notice some cosmetic changes throughout the week as we update the header with the new name and work out some of the technical stuff attached to the previous domains.  You'll also be able to find all content for wedding planners under The Smart Planner Archives.

You can also follow me on Twitter under the name Think Splendid. If you are currently following me under the name The Smart Planner, the name will change on that account and you don't have to do a thing.

Thank you so much for all of your support thus far.  Both The Smart Planner and Splendid Communications would never have existed without the support of the professionals in the wedding and event communities and I am so grateful to be able to have such amazing peers.

Liene,
This is an idea that's time has come. I think many of us out here really need this kind of resource for education and clarification of what has become a very technical world. I am so excited to read about your useful, candid and so helpful insight, technical "demystification" and knowledge. I know this will continue to be a successful venture for you, we are all out here rooting for(and thanking!) you!

I L-O-V-E the new name! It's simple, easy to spell, and above all is different enough that clients won't confuse you with someone else. Great choice!
