Welcoming a new WSB sponsor: Eagle Electric of Seattle

Today we’re welcoming another West Seattle-based business to the WSB sponsor team: Eagle Electric of Seattle. They’re reachable at 206/246-7123, and they’re online at eagleelectricofseattle.com. At left you see Eagle Electric‘s mascot, who keeps eagle-eyed watch over a strong family business: When Wendy and Dave Lind welcomed daughter Amelia into the world five months ago, Amelia became the 5th generation of Linds to live in West Seattle. Dave’s dad Larry Lind started Eagle in 1982 and has extended the service range from West Seattle and White Center to Burien, and as far south as Tacoma. Dave took over from Larry in 2001. Dave tells us the whole family has worked hard and gotten high marks from clients for their fair pricing and the overall appearance and quality of their work. They’ve received positive customer referrals not only from the WSB Forums’ Reader Recommendations section, but also from Angie’s List and Service Magic. Eagle is a member of Electricians’ Success International – a US and Canadian business group made up of 350 contractors. They’re members of the Better Business Bureau, Master Builders Association, the Eaton Certified Contractor Network, and the West Seattle Chamber of Commerce. Welcome to Eagle Electric! We appreciate their support and we appreciate your support for all WSB sponsors, who make it possible for us to bring you real-time West Seattle news, information, and discussion — just like Eagle Electric of Seattle, we are here for you 24/7. If you’d like to see the full list of sponsors and/or find out how to join them in reaching thousands of people every day, here’s the place to start.

Unintentional irony on the new Eagle Electric Ad – want to know who created that very Tile Ad?

To find out, go to this page:

http://www.b-townblog.com/2008/07/15/welcome-our-latest-advertiser-eagle-electric-of-seattle/

The original Ad (which is on both the right sidebar and in the Eagle Electric Blogvertorial feature story on the B-Town Blog) was created and designed by Scott Schaefer, Publisher/Editor of the B-Town Blog (and http://www.whitecenterblog.com).

FYI…it is known that this is unintentional and accidental, but it’s definitely worth a mention since this whole neighborhood blog thing is starting to take off, and this is just too funny to not point out – one blog sells a merchant an Ad, creates it and posts it, then 7 weeks later another one does the same, and Blog #2 gets art from Advertiser, which was made by Blog #1!

(don’t worry Tracy, the B-Town Blog has no intentions of suing WSB for plagiarism…)

Scott pointed that out in person after the CityClub event tonight. As I told him there, the art was provided to us by the client. Clients routinely have art created for advertising in multiple sources – we sell ads all the time that are created for newspapers or other web sites as well as for our site. If you are trying to say that the client did not have the right to provide that art for advertising in additional media, please speak to them about it, and we will wait to hear from them – TR

We spoke with the creator of our ad Scott Schaefer, he has given us his full blessing to use the ad he created anywhere we see fit. For us to want to use this ad, is a compliment to his artistic ability. Thank you Scott! Look for similiar ads on the back of the Metro buses in the region… let us know when and where you see them (get the bus number {not route #} and send us an email), and we will send you a coupon for money off of electrical work!

Sorry, comment time is over.
