July 16, 2003 – For the first time in over two years, there has been a shuffling of executive positions at YNOT Network, LP, owner and operator of Webmaster resource site YNOTMASTERS.com.
“YNOTBob” Rice, who has been with the company since February of 2000, has been promoted to the position of President in addition to his responsibilities as Vice President of Webmaster Sales and Advertising. Outgoing President Greg “Otto” Geelan remains with the company as Management Consultant, General Counsel, YNOTNEWS Editor, and Legal Chat Board Moderator.
YNOTBob states, “I have been very fortunate in my adult Internet career to be surrounded by the ethical and hardworking employees and leadership here at YNOT. I firmly believe that if you surround yourself with quality people, you will put out a quality product!”
He adds, “We still have many outstanding services and positive changes coming in the future. YNOT will continue to raise the bar and launch new features to help Webmasters maximize their online businesses. Otto’s hard work and dedication have been instrumental in creating the excellent infrastructure YNOT needs to keep growing. I am eagerly looking forward to this new challenge with open arms and I am very proud of the direction, business practices, and work ethic that we all worked so hard to establish here at YNOT for a long time running.”
Geelan had this to say about the changing of the guard: “When I took the position of President with YNOT in January of 2000, in addition to my previous position as General Counsel, I found the job extremely challenging. There was much to be done in regard to making the company more organized and efficient. There were few standard operating procedures and policies in place company-wide, including accounting, sales, business development, human resources and legal processes, and there was much that we wanted to do to improve the quality and quantity of services we were offering. It took a couple of years and a lot of hard work by a dedicated staff to turn the company into a fine-tuned, efficient machine.”
He continues, “Once everything was in place, I wanted to turn some of my time and attention to other challenges I’d been hoping to pursue. I approached the other YNOT executive staff about my desires, and they expressed interest in taking on more responsibilities. So over the past few months, we have been transitioning the executive team into their new roles, with Bob taking on more and more management duties. This has freed up time for me to work on the other projects as my role with YNOT evolved into a part-time position. While I am not leaving YNOT and my ongoing responsibilities with the company will remain my first priority, I am now able to devote a significant amount of time to other matters, which I am very excited about.”
As for passing the leadership torch on to YNOTBob, Geelan states, “Bob has been crucial to the success of YNOT and I am extremely confident in his ability to lead the YNOT team. I will fully support him in any way that I can and look forward to YNOT’s continued success under Bob’s tutelage.”
Geelan recently formed a law firm with Richard Chapo of AdultInternetLaw.com, which provides legal services to Webmasters and other clients. He plans to launch additional ventures in the months to come. The entire YNOT team wishes him all the best in his new endeavors.
