It’s that time again – where we give our our friends, fans and publishers an inside look at our amazing team members here at Lijit.

Not only is Lijit HQ in downtown Boulder, but if you combine all of our employees we boast a group of cyclists, marathon runners, skiers, snowboarders and health food aficionados. It’s safe to say, we’re big fans of our Earth, as are our amazing publishers.
Here’s what some of our publishers are writing about on Earth Day:

Shelly came to us at just the right time. Ben needed help with the mound of support tickets that were burying him and Lijit needed more women on the team. Basically, a win-win for everyone involved.

It seems that over the past few years, there has been an explosion of crafty folks who have started blogging and sharing their expertise (whether it’s stamping, scrapbooking, painting or general craftiness) in the online space. We’re happy to have seen many of those crafting bloggers sign up with Lijit and are continually amazed at their skills. One that we couldn’t let slip by without further focus is Kelly.
Kelly writes a blog called, appropriately enough, Kreations by Kelly that documents her many crafting experiences. Although she’s become slightly famous for her sock monkey creations, she also makes bracelets, quilts, children’s clothing and best of all, beer koozies. But in addition to being talented in the arts, she’s also a smart cookie. I mean, she’s using Lijit on her blog, after all. Let’s see how blogging has helped Kelly to spread the word of her creations.
Last Friday, we, as a company, all hit the slopes. A day spent shredding on slightly-icy snow is probably the second best company team-building activity ever invented. (This is only surpassed by skiing some sweet pow-pow together.)
Really…is there anything better that seeing your co-workers bundled up and tearing down the mountain?
Like I always say, the company that skis together…
Eats lunch together in the lodge?
And takes a break from the slopes by drinking a beer together in the lodge?
And then drinks beer together once they’ve returned to town in a company-sanctioned happy hour?
It’s obvious that we had a VERY productive Friday together as well.
And that we enjoy each other outside of work.
