Happy Birthday J. Ottman Consulting—Celebrating 20 Years
July 28, 2009 by Jacquelyn Ottman
Dear Clients and Friends,
Today marks twenty years since I started J. Ottman Consulting.
A lot has happened since 1989! I thought green would be mainstream by 1995 (!), but I’m delighted to see it’s finally here.
In 1989 there were no green conferences, books on green marketing or green websites (or even the Web). Today it’s gratifying to go to conferences, socialize on Twitter and Linked In, and see how many consumers, professionals and organizations are now incorporating the environment into their decisions and purchasing.
I’ve got a lot to be thankful for – including too much learning to qualify or quantify, three books, hundreds of speeches around the world, scores of wonderful clients and associates, and the support of fabulous friends and, of course, my dear family. I would like to thank all of YOU for your support of both me and J. Ottman Consulting and our employees and associates. It’s been a true pleasure working with you all.
In closing, the most important lesson I’ve learned is that although we’ve come a long way, we’re not done yet. That’s all of our jobs for the next twenty years.
All the best,
Jacquelyn A. Ottman
