ImOn Insider

After hunkering down during winter and then spending the last month social distancing and working from home, your home may be ready for some spring cleaning. So we tracked down some apps to help you tackle this task. We have also included a couple links with information on how to clean and disinfect surfaces in your home during  the COVID-19 pandemic.  Enjoy and happy cleaning!

It's the best time of the year for college basketball - the Big Dance is here. As the tournament madness gets underway, we wanted to make sure you know how to watch your favorite teams and catch every dunk, buzzer beater, and upset while both at home or on the go.  

What is Internet Speed?

Over the last decade, the Internet has really changed the way we live, do business, socialize, and stay informed. So it is important that your Internet speed is fast enough to keep up. We all know how frustrating it is to have to wait for your website to load or your video to buffer! 

The last decade saw some huge leaps in technology. In fact, tech moved so fast that some things that came out in the last decade seem outdated now. To keep up with the speed of today’s tech, ImOn has expanded and upgraded their services over the last decade. Check out our tech timeline from the last decade:

The holiday season is upon us and one of the sure-fire ways to get into the spirit of the season is to grab the family and enjoy a classic holiday movie.

When it comes to holiday films and TV specials, there is a plethora of titles to choose from. So we thought we would help you whittle it down to the must see favorites, by asking our ImOn employees to vote for their favorite holiday shows.

There are two types of people in the world: those that love the thrill and adventure of Black Friday shopping and those that lock their doors and hide. But there’s something all holiday shoppers can agree on—a great deal.

Appreciation is a two-way street for both companies and customers. Customers hopefully appreciate the products they’re buying and the business should appreciate its customers. After all, you wouldn’t have a business if it weren’t for the customers. Sounds like a healthy relationship with a nice balance of give and take. But, that’s not always the case. Sometimes customers feel buried under promotional emails, flyers, letters, or phone calls. That’s because some companies can be so focused on acquiring new customers, that they sometimes forget to take a step back and say, “thank you” to the ones that are already loyal to them.

At ImOn Communications we celebrate making connections. It could be making a physical Internet or cable TV connection in your home,  or it could be the connections we make with our customers, colleagues, and community on a daily basis.

And if you use ImOn's Internet service, it will get there faster than cupid's arrow.

Resolutions may be hard to keep, but doesn’t mean they’re doomed to fail. According to psychologist John Norcross, you have the best chance of sticking to your resolution when you set one that’s realistic and attainable—in other words, one that you can work little by little.

“Track your progress by recording or charting the behavior in question,” says Norcross. “Reward your successes, [and] reinforce yourself for each step with a healthy treat or a compliment.”
