“Hey Jeff, we need you to blog”. I’ve been hearing this for
quite some time, and I’ve done my best to avoid it because I wasn’t sure what
blogging was and if it would require any activities that I dislike such as
exercise. OK, I’m probably at that age where I could go either way with this
blogging thing. I could claim that I’m too old and don’t understand it, or I
could willingly jump right in. I guess the fact that I enjoy Facebook and absolutely
live with my iPad means that I won’t get away with the “too old’ argument. So
here goes….

Welcome to EPI’s new website! I had no idea how much time
and work it would take to build a new site that accomplished all the things we
dreamed about! This has been a long, exciting, frustrating, rewarding,
educational and fun project for our team. And I have to mention our outstanding
friends at Russell Herder for their creativity, hard work and ability to tell
me when one of my ideas was just plain stupid without me knowing it.  From
a behind-the-scenes look, we basically parked our 1988 Honda Fourtrax of a
website and built a new RZR 1000 version. Yep, it’s really that much better. If
you call us and ask Michelle how much better it is from a functional and
administrative perspective, she’ll drop the phone and do what we all call her
“happy dance” around the office. 

What does this mean to you? You get to enjoy a more
enjoyable shopping experience with easier searching, quicker ways to find your
product, more shopping and check out functions and best of all, our site is now
very “mobile friendly”! I’ve tested the heck out of it on my iPad and Galaxy
phone and if an old school guy like me can easily move around the site and
shop, I know you’re going to love it.

Well, I think I’m all blogged-out for now. But fear not, I
plan to keep this up (every now & then) so check back. If you don’t see
updates at least every now & then, call Kendra and complain, as it’s her
job to pester me to do this.
