Veteran’s Day is just around the corner!

Hello folks, how’s your week been? I had a visit from my packaging salesman today – Darrin Blackmore from Crown Packaging here in Lenexa Kansas. I’ve been working with Darrin for years, not only is he an amazing project manager and packaging specialist, but he’s also an amazing friend of mine that is an oak tree of a guy. “Oak tree” because this guy is rock solid and is the best in the business!

So he came in guns blazing today. I think it was the coffee. He donned my kevlar desert storm helmet – I keep it in my office when I need to think 😉 and brought some laughs to the business this morning.

You WILL buy these boxes Ryan!

It appears that Darrin is in terrific form today, but it’s no coincidence. He is a decorated US Navy Veteran. GMM2 Darrin Blackmore of the USS Jesse L. Brown, FF1089 and his tour was from 1984 to 1988. All kidding aside, Darrin has seen combat, has fought for our freedoms and is an amazing guy.

To all of the US Veterans, this Friday 11/11/11 is a tribute to you, and in light of the impending celebration we’ll release a coupon code in Darrin’s honor.

When checking out online, use coupon code “darrin” to receive 20% off of your next repair with us (for an iPod, iPhone, MacBook or any other repair!) – this coupon will expire at midnight on 11/11/11 so take advantage now! All you need to do is promise to look at this picture and get a laugh out of it.

I did.

Have a great Wednesday, Ryan

Mission Repair iPhone app has been submitted!

Hello again! Where have you been? I missed you! I’ve been neck deep in business. We had a record month in March and truth be told I’m happy to wrap it up. Our Mission Repair anniversary is tomorrow (Yes it’s on April Fools Day!) and we are planning a little BBQ luncheon and cake for the company. It’s going to be great to get outside (will be 80 degrees out tomorrow) and we can get a little sunshine on our faces at the same time!

We have made it through another HUGE project here at Mission Repair and we have officially submitted our very first iPhone and iPod Touch App to Apple. We are just now waiting out the approval process and you can be sure that I’ll let you know when you can get his free app! It’s very exciting and we are thrilled to be at the end of this process and get the project into Apple’s hands. Here’s what you’ll see on your iPhone Desktop:

PROTECT ME!

The PROTECT ME (patent pending) app will enroll your iPhone into our iPhone Protection Plan from your location anywhere in the USA. You’ll be able to apply coverage against breakage and add extended protection that will cover your phone even after the manufacturer warranty expires. It’s a fantastic deal and it’s the first program of its kind- where the same award-winning iPhone Repair company sells the protection plan AND performs the service on the iPhone. Check it out, and it’s only here at Mission Repair!

OK, I’ll be back soon with more app updates and more app fun. Take care, talk to you again very soon!
