Happy February! WE MADE IT! Year-End is over. What a year and it's only two months in!
I have a feeling even more change is on the horizon, so please be certain to log into the Customers Only site and OPT IN for the UPDATES! Just because you get this newsletter does not mean you are OPTED IN to receive all updates.
We are trying to make it to a number of conventions this year! Keep your eye out for us, starting this very week at TempNet. We'll be in Dallas for the Texas Association of Staffing conference in April, then hit the North Carolina Association of Staffing Professionals conference the week after that. To see our full conference schedule, click here.
We know many of you have the Affordable Care Act on your mind, so we will also be attending the ASA Law Conference in Washington, DC in May. We hope to bring back good news and detailed regulations.
As always, we value the partnerships and input of all our COATS clients. Please don't be afraid to give us an earful of your good and bad experiences as well as ideas for enhancements.
Onward and Upward,

Did You Know We're on Pinterest?
 We've caught the latest wave in social media and have three boards on Pinterest:
Feel free to follow us or repin or just peruse our boards. See you there! We're Also on Google+
 We've also established a page on Google+ for everyone who's on that site. We're posting mostly the same content as on our "Staffing Stuff" Pinterest board. But we must admit, it's a little lonely there right now. If you're on Google+, please let us know and we'll try to form a little staffing outpost on it. :-) |

 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!
