Go Play Watch DOGS!
At ACK we have what we call “Go Play” days, which are days where employees can take a paid day off to go and play. There is also something in there for non-paddlers that I actually did for my Go Play day, not because I didn’t want to go paddling but rather because it was [...]
12/14/12 It’s Not About Remembering, It’s About Never Forgetting
I don’t spend much time blogging, I often wish I did but I never really feel that what I want to share is worth sharing and inconsequential to our Blog. For some reason last Friday 12/14/12 has me feeling different and I wanted to take a moment and reflect on the heinous crime and absolute [...]

When Less is More – Email!
Over the past 5+ years ACK has been known for stellar communication on orders. Currently, when you place an order you get a confirmation email immediately — typically before the page finishes loading. Then we fire off an “Order Processed” email to let you know we have charged your credit card and that it is [...]
ACK.com
It’s been a long 6 years but we’re finally able to celebrate a small victory — acquiring www.ack.com! Each May we were greeted with disappointment as the web address was always renewed, but things changed this year as we finally got a hold of what we now consider one of our most prized possessions, ACK.com.

Kustomer Service
Our Kustomer Service team has recently grown again and with that came an idea. Our customers always say that at ACK our Kustomer Service is different and stands above the rest. That’s when I realized that we should be calling it Kustomer Service. Why Kustomer service with a “K”? Well aside from being different, it isn’t [...]
