our first order
Thursday, January 8th, 2009Back in the day, new businesses would take the first dollar and tack it to the wall behind the cash register.
What’s an e-commerce entrepreneur to do when they finally receive their first cyber-order?
Simple:
1. Snap a photo of Our Founder with the camera function on my Blackberry
2. E-mail it to myself
3. Open outlook and upload the jpeg
4. Tweak the heck out of it
5. Import it to my photo gallery
6. Open a new post in Wordpress
7. Switch the edit mode to HTML
8. Browse my computer for the image
9. Realize that I forgot to rename the photo to something other than a number.jpeg
10. Swear
11. Reopen the photo gallery and rename the photo: order packin petey
12. Resave the image with new name
13. Go back to Wordpress
14. Upload the image
15. Write the post
16. Publish the post.
Yes, I agree, computers make everything easier.
