@Kristen (aka “KW at IMA”): Thank you so much for your kind words. Maybe I can join you and Julie on a call via SLC…

@Chris Healey: Thank you! That is very nice of you to say. The Bronto Blog is in excellent hands with Julie, Kristen and Kelly. I believe that it will be even better!

Hey DJ – congratulations on behalf of everyone in the email industry. Your blog is on our required reading list, and seeing the 100th post departure was kind of a shock but really looking forward to Kristen Gregory, Kelly Lorenz, and Julie Waite’s posts.

DJ, I only had the pleasure of working with you for a couple weeks before settling down with Julie as an Account Manager, but none-the-less I enjoyed working with you. Any time you would make a guest appearance on a weekly call was much appreciated! :)

Good luck to you always! Enjoy the move and I look forward to hearing from you at BSF AND via Twitter!

@jess: You are in excellent hands with Kristen.

@amyblack: Last of DJ Waldow? Yeah, right.

@Jake: Thanks for your kind words. Right back at you. You’ve helped tremendously on the deliverability front.

@Justin: You’ll certainly hear more from me. Also, I’m very confident that the current team of Bronto bloggers will make this place even better!

@Eric: I’ll never forget that first call into Bronto. Not sure I ever told you this, but I chose to call you b/c of the Wade Boggs connection.

@Jay: Never a bother. Great working with you always.

@everyone: I’m truly humbled by your comments

Adios, DJ. Glad you called back that day in 2005 I was rude to you on the phone…

DJ,

Wow.

Congratulations on 100 posts, countless more connections/relationships – and on leaving this blog in good hands. Well done on the transition.

I think I speak for everyone when I say I look forward to hearing more from you (as Jess notes you’re unlikely to fall off the radar entirely) as your own journey takes its next turn.

Cheers to you and to all at Bronto.

DJ was probably one of the first guys in the Industry when I entered Email Marketing one year ago! He not only fed me truck loads of information (not personally, but through everything he’s written and contributed to) but impassioned me for the Industry and giving back to the community which has ultimately lead to my job role within my current employer.

I’m so glad to hear that DJ is still staying in the Industry and will be interested to see what shapes he takes on in his new role as well as what legacy he leaves behind.

Thanks DJ, it’s been a damn fun ride and I’m pretty sure you’re not gonna let it stop just yet.

DJ, you’ve been an incredible brand ambassador for Bronto and a crusader for all that is good and right in the world of email marketing! I’m sure that last part won’t change a bit.

Congrats on a job well done and good luck (not that you need it) on your next adventure! I KNOW that we have not heard that last of DJ Waldow. : )

Dude, you rock!
