Whoo! We just got back from Staffing World 2012, and what a great show it was.
It was wonderful seeing and hugging all our clients! What a job, to be able to see each other face to face and discuss challenges, upcoming enhancements and new visions!
We are thinking of having a User Group meetup the day prior to Staffing World 2013. Are you in? Let us know if you'd be interested, and the topics you would find most relevant.
Speaking of fostering user knowledge, you use COATS regularly, which makes you something of an expert on it. You could help me and YOURSELF out; your knowledge could win you money! Send us a "Did You Know" for COATS and you could win a $25 gift card. We will even post you on the DYK COATSsql Facebook page for your 15 "posts" of fame :)
Hoping Fall brings you some beautiful weather and a great end to our 3rd quarter,

 Focus: Staffing World 2012
It's the year's big event for the staffing industry and all its many supporters. This year, we visited Las Vegas for Staffing World. What follows are the tales that were approved not to stay in Vegas:
Essential StaffCARE threw a blowout Healthcare Hangover party at PURE on the top of Caesar's Palace--complete with the "baby" from The Hangover. (Sorry, Brad and Krystal, for the line confusion!)
The food was amazing! Staffing World did a fabulous job and so did the restaurants at The Venetian (for breaking my diet).
Elton John - FAB U LOUS ! What a man, what a career, what a stage!
Shopping - While Tom left UP in the game of gambling, my pockets were a LOT lighter in the game of shopping.
But most of all, what an awesome opportunity to meet our clients! It was great to take a few moments to sit and listen to their needs, to hear their praises and to discuss their visions - priceless!
Thanks for so much for coming by the booth and showing your support. My apologies for not having time to spend one-on-one with each and everyone one of you!
To give us the chance to connect one-on-one, we're considering having a COATS User Group event next year, the day before Staffing World starts. A combination meetup and breakout session, this will guarantee some dedicated client/COATS time. Let us know if you are interested!

Help us Help YOU!
 The COATS Users Group on LinkedIn is starting to heat up! Many users are discussing the new Employee Portal! We created this group for COATS users to discuss the software with us and with each other so we can all get more out of it.
This is a members-only group, so you don't have to worry about anyone wandering in and spamming us. Unfortunately, that means you do have to apply for membership, but we promise you'll get in; all you have to be is a COATS user. We look forward to seeing you there!
