Warm Wishes for a Happy and Restful Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving season, we want to express our gratitude for something we’re thankful for every day—our electric cooperatives. They’ve been at the heart of Inside Information since our founding in 1995. One of these co-ops, Lake Region Electric Cooperative (LREC), has been with us since the very beginning. Check out this month's featured idea from LREC: a legislative appreciation dinner email.

Of Milk Moustaches and Meeting Trends

By Julie Elliott, President

Before the world of Microsoft Teams, Inside Information criss-crossed the country for quarterly client meetings. Fast forward to today—and many of those same conversations now happen virtually. Still, there’s something special about meeting face-to-face—and fall remains packed with opportunities to do just that.

30 Years of Data, Dedication, and…Time Saved

By Julie Elliott, President

Back when Inside Information was founded, there definitely wasn’t an app for that. A lot has changed since 1995, but our co-ops still continue to work with us today. Why? It's not about skills — it's about time.

30 Years of Inside Info: The Power of Play

By Michele Cavin, Creative Services Director

Did you know? Inside Information's #1 core value is: We are fun team players that don’t take ourselves (too) seriously. We bring a playful spirit to work, work together to get things done, and are genuinely interested in others’ cares and concerns.
