Koreans in Seattle!

It was a fun week as my Korean team visited Seattle for training this week (and next week for some). With days full of non-stop training, we were able to get a few breaks here and there for entertainment, including dinner Monday night at Seattle's The Pink Door and Happy Hour tonight with the legacy DRIVE folks at Temple Billiards!

Not only did the Koreans learn the ins and outs of the AdNetwork business, but they also got a few tips in the obstensible "quote/unquote" hand gestures as well as the many uses of the descriptor "crazy"... as in "Good morning, you Crazy Koreans" and "now THAT is crazy, as in not good crazy".

It was pretty awesome to see folks from DRIVE New and Old come together for a night on the town with the new Korea team, especially given that this week marked the 5th anniversary of DRIVE serving its first ad in 2003 (we enjoyed a reminiscing string with legacy AQNT leadership this morning in celebration of DRIVE's birthday).

And now I head off to introduce the business and provide additional training to the DRIVE folks in India! Yes, Avid Reader, I am off to Mumbai in under 12 hours and need to get packin'! Take care for now -- look for new posts from my Asian adventures here oh so very soon!
