Faces of Roundpeg: Allison – The Devil’s Advocate

I learned a long time ago, if you want to be successful you need to surround yourself with people who don’t think the same way you do and who are good at the things you aren’t. If you are very lucky you will find someone who cares enough to disagree with you. I am very lucky, because I found Allison. She argues with me, she asks pointed questions, she corrects my grammar and spelling, and tells me when I screw up. As annoying as that is, I can’t imagine life at Roundpeg without her. Allison loves structure and routine, so when I suggest something new, some change in our operating...

Why Playing Hooky Can Help Your Business

At Roundpeg, we love to play hooky. It’s not that we don’t love our jobs or aren’t passionate about marketing and web design and all that other good stuff.

We even got paid for our time. It’s a pretty...

The hardest thing to learn was that I couldn’t cast a new member in the same role. Each new person...

Faces of Roundpeg: The Boy Band

They had many nicknames in the Indy business community, but to us they will always be The Boy Band. An unlikely duo, Jay Mattingly and Taylor Brough  shared a sense of  fun and a passion for what they did which allowed them to find a collaborative rhythm. As solo artists they brought dramatically different backgrounds, skills and personality styles to Roundpeg. Taylor was the quiet one.  He would often hesitate, thinking carefully about what he wanted to say. When he spoke up, it was worth paying attention.  After three years of working together, he could read my mind and my...

That’s A Wrap, Week Ending January 20

Hard to believe that the Super Bowl in now less than 3 weeks away. As we hear about the almost daily changes going on with our hometeam Colts, we’ve got our noses to the grindstone over here at the ‘Peg. Seems as if this January is redefining the word “busy”. Blogging is one of our top priorities here, and although I’m pretty sure you’ve also had a busy week, check out the Roundpeg topics that made it to our blogposts: Leftover but Don’t Miss It - An Articulate Account Scott, our summer intern, helped us out during his winter break. Here are his...
