Jigsaw Has Something to Say: Company Launches Blog "Garth's World: Life of a Sales Guy and Other Business Tales"

Garth Moulton, VP of Community and Jigsaw Co-founder, Shares Voice of Jigsaw Community in Company Blog

SAN MATEO, CA - March 11, 2008 - Every day, more and more companies are creating blogs as a way to engage in meaningful conversations directly with their customers and community. As an online directory of business contact and company data, that is built, maintained, and utilized by its community, Jigsaw (http://www.jigsaw.com) has worked closely in partnership with its community since its inception. In another community-driven move, Garth Moulton, Jigsaw co-founder and vice president of community, has launched a new blog on the company's site, "Garth's World: Life of a Sales Guy and Other Business Tales" available at: http://www.jigsawsblog.com/.

"Think of 'Garth's World' as a gallery for the musings of Jigsaw members-the sales people, recruiters, marketers, and small business pros who want to share their hardearned wisdom with others, and pick up some tips too," said Moulton, "We aim to rise above the din of corporate speak to provide our community with a place to share personal anecdotes, lessons learned, and a good bit of humor; all adding up to a valuable and enjoyable resource."

As vice president of community development at Jigsaw, co-founder Garth Moulton leads all activities and outreach serving Jigsaw's community of over 400,000 members. Drawing upon his strong affiliation with the Jigsaw brand and community, and his success as a sales executive at several technology firms including Digital Impact (DIGI), Sawyer Media, Personify, Open Environment Corporation and Cambridge Information Network (CIN), Moulton has a broad perspective to offer others.

"Our members are the center of Jigsaw. We have the utmost appreciation for them, and greatly value their contributions and opinions," said Jim Fowler, co-founder and CEO of Jigsaw. "The blog provides another avenue to generate conversations that support our members' professional needs, and given Garth's superb story-telling capabilities-he's an experienced salesman after all-we're pretty sure they'll be entertained in the process."

The blog engages individuals with valuable information including: tips and tricks to better leverage Jigsaw's tools; amusing stories from professional sales, marketing and recruiting experiences; new feature announcements; important Jigsaw milestones and community-focused updates and news. Along with the Jigsaw database of business contact and company information and its ongoing webinar series on best practices in data management, "Garth's World" is another Jigsaw resource to support sales, marketing and recruiting professionals.
