Most kids today are using myspace.com and facebook.com regularly. Many children are “safe” users and know not to give out personal information, but many kids are posting VERY personal information and photos. This information should not be given out. Children sometimes don’t know what they are doing and how it can affect not only them, but their friends and families.

As I’ve been spending the last 5 months starting up my business full-time, I have been told many times over to blog. I kinda winced and said “I hate reading blogs”. Blogging was the last thing I really wanted to do.
Then…a business associate told me that he blogs and he said it was a good advertising technique, so here that girl blogs now.
Stay tuned for more fun blogs to come!

Bio sheet!
Call That Girl (CTG) is owned and operated by Lisa Hendrickson, and around the metro area Lisa is affectionately referred to as “the IT girl” or “that computer girl”, hence the snappy website: www.callthatgirl.biz . Given that Information Technology is a male-dominated industry, Lisa and Call That Girl offers a new approach to everyday computer woes.
CTG originated in Minneapolis, 2003 as an at home computer repair company focused on supporting women users. CTG was a sole proprietorship in the summer of 2004, and while working at the Mayo Clinic, Lisa found that physicians also needed her computer expertise in their home offices. Lisa has been working ever since supporting a variety of industries, including: Universities, Military Networks, and Research and Development, but she has never forgotten the Call
That Girl dream. Lisa and CTG aspire to support women and home based businesses on a level that far exceeds the competition, never compromising value and repair.
“I love troubleshooting and helping the customer. I will only work in positions where customer focus is #1. I also believe that teaching is a certain aspect of computer repair. Clients need to be informed of not only their choices of service but to learn how they can avoid repeat calls for future repair”, states Hendrickson.
Running CTG is an around the clock job, but Lisa still enjoys non- technical hobbies such as vintage shopping and collecting, traveling and shooting pool. She also volunteers at Resource INC, a community support service for those coming out of drug rehabilitation, welfare and veteran status. In addition, Lisa works to provide technical advisement for children’s health organization, Camp Get-A-Well-A.
Her goals for herself reflect her efforts at CTG, to make a difference in people’s lives and to help others while sharing her talents and passion.
