Some say the grass is greener elsewhere. We would say, the grass is greener where you water it. In the heat of summer, are we staying relevant in our approach, refreshed in our work ethic, and ready to cultivate thriving client partnerships? Are we thirsty for success?
I’ve got a cartoon illustration in my office that I like to share with people. It’s four cows, each leaning their necks over to the others’ side of the fence to eat grass. As employees, sometimes we’re sometimes prone to think the same way.

Communication, collaboration, and cold, hard hustle. That's what gained the trust of the City of Jacksonville in Central Arkansas, and landed Dan Gallion his biggest deal at Datamax to date. He DEFINITELY put the legwork into this one.
Arbor Day Foundation
Texas
Datamax once again partners with the Arbor Day Foundation in their 50th year to support their reforestation mission and reinforce their "power of trees" message. To date, Datamax has helped plant more than 8,600 trees in nationwide forests.
The Four-Leaf Clover is an elusive plant that grows under extremely unique environmental conditions and is said to bring good luck. We don’t believe in luck at Datamax, but we do have a four-leafed approach to growth: Acquisition, Diversification, Penetration (FTAs) and the Cultivation of Culture.
