What do Alicia Keys, AC/DC and Dido have in common? Well, for one they are all great musicians, but for EpikOne they are all part of a global analytics intiative we're spearheading for Sony BMG Music Entertainment. Sony BMG selected GAAC partners EpikOne for North America and KeyMetrics for Western Europe to launch Google Analytics across their global network of recording artist and label websites. After considering other leading web analytics software providers, they chose the combination of EpikOne, KeyMetrics and Google Analytics enabling them to allocate more resources to the people and process of analytics instead of hefty analytics software fees.

Making the Move

Well, we are excited to announce that as of July 1 we have a new area code and brand new digs. We've vacated our warehouse space that got us started as an e-commerce consulting and fulfillment company to a fancy new office with 20X more windows than we have now (no joke!)

Our new space at 7 Kilburn St. in Burlington gives us ample space to stretch the legs, think more clearly and enjoy the beautiful scenes of downtown Burlington.

Notes from the story included:

"Epik expects to grow from 20 employees at the beginning of the year to 40 by year's end.
Winslow's company is far from unique."

"Around the nation, a wide range of companies are still hiring. Some of the new jobs are even in areas that are shrinking, such as financial services. Some positions require advanced degrees, but a variety of skill levels are in demand. High-tech companies, including Epik, are especially looking for workers."
