Method Community

Our company is all about systems. We are fanatical about them. We maximize as much efficiency as we can out of our team and waste no time on tasks that can be automated.  How else do you think a small 13 person company could pull off a monster project like Method while still maintaining our existing brands?  Blood and sweat will only ...

If you take a look at the Intuit Marketplace, several applications state they have “syncing” capabilities with QuickBooks.  If you have ever shopped for an add-on to QuickBooks, you know that the degree in which these third-party applications can sync with QuickBooks varies depending on who created the application. The QuickBooks SDK allows ...

Unless you’ve been living under a rock or don’t have a clue what the “Internet” is, you’ve probably heard of the sites called Facebook and LinkedIn.  Both of these social networking sites have grown in popularity over the last few years.    Method now has a developer network group available on Facebook and LinkedIn.  ...

On Friday (September 5th, 2008) Method has filed its first patent application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office!  In fact it is the first and only patent that our company, Alocet Incorporated, has ever filed, and let me tell you, it is quite a process. What for you ask?  Well, if you break method into two parts: the ...

I can’t believe the Sleeter Group Conference is just around the corner!  It feels like just the other day we were preparing for Las Vegas where Method made its first appearance @ the 2007 Sleeter Conference!  Method will be a Gold Exhibitor @ the 2008 Sleeter Conference. This year, things were done a little differently and attendees of ...

Ever hear the term “The best of both worlds”?  Oh come on, I know you have.   For those of you who haven’t heard of this, here’s what it means: “The best of both worlds” is to have the best aspects of one choice and the best aspects of another choice when you have been asked to select between two choices.  Every now and ...
