Exciting news! We've been sponsored! - April Fool!

Posted Apr 1, 2011 | ~2 minute read

On this fine Spring day, we have some excellent news to share that has a huge impact on [codepotato] and our plans going forward.

We've been in talks for quite some time with a number of companies about potential sponsorship, ultimately to better our offering to clients, and have made significant headway with a particular company. The details are still being ironed out, but i can confidently share the following with you.

Since 14 February this year we've been in frequent communication with the operations directory of Albert Bartlett potatoes, a company that shares the same charisma and drive as we do. They have embarked on a successful television marketing campaign recently to raise awareness of their company and products. They are well known for their "off the wall" adverts and have created quite a stir in the otherwise dormant potato industry.

We've struck a deal with Albert Bartlett to allow them to market and promote their products through codepotato's website. In turn, they will provide our clients and business partners with a significant discount on the wide range of potato-based products that they offer. Needless to say, this offer is huge, not only for the otherwise stricken Albert Bartlett but for our clients.

Talking to trade press earlier, the Operations Director for Albert Bartlett said :

"Partnering up with codepotato just makes sense. They have done an excellent job demonstrating the versatility of potatoes to the web industry, and their passion and way of business is on par with our own. Sure, it may seem like a odd choice of partner, but we're certain that this partnership will work. We love being different, and what better way to do this than to work hand-in-hand with another innovative company."

We're ecstatic about this opportunity to work with Albert Bartlett, and look forward to "peeling the skin" of our competitors and giving them a jolly good mashing.
