Mallorca Tech Stories
A new installment of our Mallorca Tech Stories, which, as you already know, are pieces of content (in Spanish, for now) about the technological ecosystem of our region. A section in which we chat with people who have launched personal projects, large companies, community leaders or people who simply have an interesting personal story. As this newsletter clearly demonstrates, in our islands there are interesting stories to tell, which deserve to be told and which unfortunately do not arouse enough interest in the general media.
This time we chatted with Xavier Idevik, CMO of DonDominio. A super inspiring story, of a person who joined the company to help in the customer service department and now leads the marketing department of a domain and web hosting provider with more than 170,000 customers. Seems easy.
Both Xavi and DonDominio are closely linked to initiatives related to the digital world, in fact, that is one of the pillars on which they rely to continue growing. Read the full story to find out what else they do to attract and retain customers to the point of exceeding 400,000 managed domains.
👉 He has also left us a gift for those who reach the end of the story, an exclusive 50% discount for the readers of this newsletter to transfer or buy your new .COM or .ES domain.
