Here are my 5 Resolutions for 2009:
1. Listen to our users more. The Alot.com brand is a phenomenal product. We need to break down walls and allow our users to give us feedback about the product. This will allow for champions for the Alot.com brand, and provide a forum for us to share information.

3. Test, test test. Our team has so many great ideas that will enhance our users experiences that it behooves us to test everything.

5. Stay focused. As we grow and continue to generate revenue, it’s easy to rest on your laurels. We need to stay focused and push each other (especially in such a volatile economic environment.
