The Official OpenRain Blog

The best new business leads are referrals from happy clients, so when we recently received these great testimonial blurbs from active OpenRain web products and services clients, we just had to share the love!

“The team at OpenRain was easy to work with, took time to explain the process, handled our needs efficiently and gave us our own Project Manager…that went above and beyond to make sure we were kept in the loop on their progress and responded to our questions and additional requests with care and concern…If you’re looking for reliability, ease of use, quality production, and great people to do business with, go to OpenRain.” -Al A., Business Owner, OpenRain Client

“OpenRain has been working with us on a major undertaking for the past year and a half, on a high visibility Ruby on Rails application that interacts with the complex data model…During this time, OpenRain has come to be seen as valued and respected members of our website team who are fully integrated within the group of developers. OpenRain has also provided consultation and recommendations on our server architecture and scalability and are actively engaged in process improvements. Throughout OpenRain has been professional, knowledgeable, and an asset to our team…and come highly recommended both as software engineers and architects and particularly as Ruby on Rails developers.” -Kristen L., Business Manager, OpenRain Client

“…will go above the call of duty to make sure what they develop is what you are looking for. I’m looking forward to the long term benefits from all their efforts and a continued relationship with their office as my business grows.” -Ryan O., Business Owner, OpenRain Client

OpenRain Software is smack dab in the middle of a rapid-fire marketing event campaign, hosting three separate ribbon-cutting parties for Tempe, Chandler and Gilbert businesses over the course of several weeks to promote our small business web presence product. Tempe was last week, Chandler this week, and Gilbert next week. That’s a whole lot of wine and networking! Here’s a quick video of our Chandler Chamber ribbon cutting this past Wednesday. Also check out some great pictures courtesy of @casademora!

Mutually beneficial, win-win partnerships should be built to last. And to create all that good, predictable business mojo, you need to incentivize participation on both ends. We’ve done this in the past, but have not created a formal program… until now.

Today we’re officially introducing OpenRain Partner programs to all our clients, vendors and other affiliates to incentivize these lasting bonds. Clients and vendors with formal relationships established in over three month intervals will now receive discounts on our already competitive development rates. When qualified as a marketing partner, businesses complementary to OpenRain’s core market (such as vertical partners in the design, hosting and support spaces) are also eligible to receive  four-figure referral bonus as well as free co-branded marketing materials!

Good referrals from trusted sources to reputable businesses are the cornerstone of organic business development, so participation in all of these programs will be limited and provided only to other reputable firms and individuals. Contact us to discuss!

We’ve been using FiveRuns TuneUp as a quick and easy tool for proactively identifying performance issues in production Ruby on Rails applications. (TuneUp is free and brain-dead easy to use for any Rails developer, so definitely check it out.) We’re excited to announce our RAMP program partnership with FiveRuns and look forward to seeing more services such as Manage in the future!
