Zoopy...it has begun

I have refrained from blogging about this for the past few weeks. Partly because I had a lot to do at M&G Online before I left and partly because there is still a lot that I had to find out about Zoopy.I managed to get much done with M&G and have the utmost confidence that they are on a path to absolutely fantastic things under new leadership. A new GM has taken on Matt's role, Jason Norwood-Young has taken on Vince's role and I can almost certainly say that M&G is heading down one helluva great path and we are all in for some interesting times.Moving on to Zoopy.I have taken up the position of Gauteng GM for Zoopy. The decision to move to Zoopy was a tough one because it meant that I was leaving a company and brand like Mail & Guardian Online. But Zoopy presented me with some very enticing ideas, goals and movements for the next 12 months or so. The plans are innovative, interesting and like nothing being done in the online market in SA at this point in time. I couldn't say no to a chance like this.Basically I am going to be setting up Zoopy in JHB for now. That means staff, offices, equipment and most importantly relationships with anyone who thinks they can offer something of value to our vision.That's all I'm going to say for now as it has been a long day and I have yet to step in to my first meeting here in Cape Town. Bring them on.For those of you attending the 27 Dinner in CT this week, I'll see you there and look forward to meeting many of you for the first time in real life, really!
