Distributors can sign up, track metrics of the campaign and see customer ordering history. Sundog is also creating an email wizard that will allow for easy customer signup, along with promotional email strategy to increase sales leads.

The online directory will offer more usability compared to traditional printed directories. Church members can look up names, photos, addresses, email, phone numbers and even hobbies or interests of each family member within the congregation. Administrators can add new members and create groups within the congregation.

500 Pairs of Jeans = 1 House
While the national collection goal is 100,000 pairs of jeans, each local store goal is to collect 500 pairs before November 3rd, 2009. Sundog’s individual goal is 100 pairs and after just two weeks, employees have donated more than 80 denim items.

We invite you to join our efforts by sharing this cause with your coworkers, friends and family. Holes in the knees, ripped pockets, too big, too small – doesn’t matter, we’ll take them all and turn them into a cozy home for someone who needs it.

What To Do With Your Donated Jeans
All of their 200 stores across the country are accepting donations.  Check their store locator to find a Vanity near you. As a thank you, you’ll receive a 25% discount coupon toward a new pair of Vanity Jeans for every pair brought in for recycling.

This year is especially exciting, as Trollwood recently moved from its flood-prone location in north Fargo to a new facility across the river in Moorhead.

On July 24, 81 Sundog employees and family members enjoyed The Wiz in Trollwood’s new 2,500-seat amphitheatre. We thank the students and staff for another amazing production—and we congratulate them on the beautiful new facility.

The total was $298.71. Sundog matched the employee donations, doubling the donation to $597.42. That’s roughly 4,180 meals or $7,170 in food product for the Great Plains Food Bank, because every dollar donated equals $12 in food.

The certification program recognizes individuals who have demonstrated proficiency in various Adobe product suites. Experts must pass one or more exams specific to the product.

Nick will now pursue the ACE Rich Media Specialist designation, which requires further testing in Flash and Flex.

A graduate of Gustavus Adolphus College, Nick earned a bachelor’s of art degree in international marketing and advertising design. Before joining Sundog, he worked in the Twin Cities for General Mills, DreamWorld Studios and Pearson Education. He resides in Fargo.

The company hired Sundog to create television and radio ads and place advertising to recruit young members (ages 18 – 23) and increase its mortgage business. Sundog created the campaign concept, “This is my Town and Country Credit Union Commercial,” to tie all the
ads together into a cohesive campaign.
