The Companion Group Website – Expanding our Horizon
I’m proud to say the day has come. Not only are we celebrating our 30 year anniversary this year, but we’ve also re-launched our website and blog! Not everyone will be as excited as me and our team, but this has been a project in process for some time. When I joined The Companion Group I immediately started brainstorming ways to improve the website, everything from design and layout to content and resources. My first thought was:
We have such a large market presence, dedicated employees, and great customers – why don’t we show that off
We’re building our reputation within the social media world and are very pleased with our following and their interaction level. It’s no secret that consumers drive our business and listening to their feedback is not only important, but essential since the web is now king. Consumers have so many outlets to express their love and appreciation (as well as frustration!) online. Companies who are not taking advantage of these platforms are surely missing out. Simone does a fantastic job of finding the most informative and fun things online. If you’re not following us on social media, you are missing out!
Website Cliff Notes
Here’s a quick rundown of our top pages you’ll want to keep an eye on.
Recipes
Over the years we’ve created and accumulated a fairly large library of delicious recipes. We’re finally putting them together in an easy to find location. Here we’re posting everything from our beer can chicken to our pizza cone dough. You’ll want to bookmark this page, I promise!
Videos
Our YouTube page has become our flagship social network and media account. This is where we post all of our videos, which include product demonstrations, how-tos, recipe execution, and more! We’ve taken this one step further on the site by including all videos in an easy to find table format as well as full transcripts for those of you who don’t have the patience to watch a full video (myself included).
Blog
For any of you following our old blog, you’ll want to change that bookmark! Here we cover everything from product news to office fun.

Our products have garnered coverage everywhere from the smallest blogs to major publications. Check out our press releases for the latest company news.

A Shout Out to Our Industry Peeps:
What to Expect from Us
We’re always brainstorming the latest and greatest grilling and barbecue accessories to bring to market. Since our venture into pizza tools and accessories, we’re giving you every trick and tip we we’ve learned to step up your pizza game. Juggling The Companion Group website re-design, marketing, advertising, and the release of our revolutionary new pizza oven was challenging – but I did it! Well, who am I kidding; I wouldn’t have completed this project had it not been for our talented creative department, Simone, Nick, and of course Chuck’s patience.
Stay tuned for more and be sure to follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, YouTube, Instagram, and Pinterest.
