Let's Talk About Stuff.
Our Blog
Our goal in posting our blogs is three fold: To introduce timely industry news that is relevant to our clients; to post items we find interesting and entertaining, and finally, to give you a glimpse of TSW US “Behind the Curtain”. We take the business aspects of what we are doing very seriously, but we like to have fun, hopefully that shines through here.
Our Blog is a puzzle being assembled. Sometimes the individual pieces of the puzzle don’t look like the whole picture once completed – You have to keep adding pieces one at a time to make the image clear. We hope you keep coming back to see how the TSW US puzzle takes shape.

Insights on Working From Home
One of our team member has reviewed her first week of WFH, amazing insights from Desiree Metzger.
Working from home has made me realize that a home office is not a luxury, it’s a necessity. Apart from eating all the snacks the first few days, emotional eater over here, I am working at the dinner table. This is away from the television and closer to the modem.
My first few video calls proved, working from downstairs isn’t going to be possible. It is probably for the best, the man cave equipped with it’s 75” TV would not have been the most productive space.
The first few days last week, proved productive I got quick replies to emails. As we got closer to the end of the week, those responses started to dry up. Tough to take and created some anxious feelings
At Connections we have a variety of programs that will help clients navigate these uncertain times. E-commerce brands will see an increase in sales as brick and mortars experience a decrease. We can help brands ‘piggyback’ those E-Commerce sales with an implied endorsement to the new potential customers.

May 21st is World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development
Today, May 21st is World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development. 2018 is also the year at TSW when we focus on diversity. In keeping with our historic theme of having fun while getting meaningful exposure to other cultures, we are hosting a “Pot-Luck” lunch. Each employee is bringing in a dish that reflects their heritage and will be sharing a unique or insightful point on how their background and culture impacts how they see the world. It should be fascinating, and yummy. We can’t wait!
Home Depot Textile Expansion Brings Death to The Company Store PIP

Cascarones
At TSWUS, we are firm believers that in embracing new experiences from other cultures, we become more well-rounded as people. One of our 2018 corporate initiatives is diversity. Part of building diversity is building for it. That means understanding other cultures.
While our offices are already diverse here in the US, we are always ready to join in the challenge of having a little fun while learning about other cultures’ traditions. Today, we jumped in with both feet. Both feet, a broom and a dustpan.
While a Mexican tradition, Cascarones in the US, are common around Easter as there has been a merging of Mexican and US holiday celebrations. Having one of these confetti eggs broken over your head is said to bring good luck. It is also confirmed to be quite fun and very messy.
Fun, Educational, Messy, Addictive. Perfect!
