“Broadband has greatly enhanced our business and level of professionalism. While we have always been a technology-based company, getting broadband certainly made communicating easier and less frustrating,” said Mia Thompson Brown with the Knowles Co., a real estate and property management company in Northeast Harbor.

“We can now send more and more via e-mail, which is imperative,” said Brown.

The company now has a full-time ad coordinator to handle all of its media and electronic advertisements. “Our Web site, which has won two awards, allows us to offer more to our clients because [most] have broadband connections. In addition, we advertise more on the Web than ever before.”
