Meeting recording: https://fathom.video/calls/561006842
| Name | Role | Org |
|---|---|---|
| Sebastian Gant | Account lead | Asymmetric |
| Melissa Cusumano | — | Asymmetric |
| Mark Hope | — | Asymmetric |
| Bodo Liesenfeld | Owner/operator | Liesenfeld International / Cordwainer |
| Tamilyn Liesenfeld | — | Liesenfeld International |
| Erica Lathrop | — | Cordwainer Memory Care |
| Maria Lastoria | — | Cordwainer Memory Care |
Note: Erica and Maria joined late; Bodo conducted most of the meeting solo with Sebastian.
This was the final pre-launch check-in before the Cordwainer website went live. All feedback from the previous meeting had been implemented. The remaining open item — the Careers page job listings — was explicitly deferred to post-launch to avoid holding up the go-live. Ad campaigns were reviewed and performing within target ranges.
| Decision | Detail |
|---|---|
| Website launches Thu Feb 12 | Asymmetric (Mark + Sebastian) will push staging to production Thursday afternoon. |
| Careers page deferred | Job listings will be added after launch; will not block go-live. |
| Google review responses out of scope | Asymmetric will not respond to Google reviews. Bodo will assign this internally. Asymmetric can advise on strategy but not execution. |
| Meeting cadence shifts to biweekly | After a quick post-launch check-in on Tue Feb 17 at 10:30 AM, meetings move to every two weeks. |
The Careers page exists on the site but will launch without job listings. The process to populate it:
All job types (not just managerial) can be listed. Sebastian already has Amanda's contact from a prior handbook update.
| Event | Status |
|---|---|
| Punch of Love | Finalized and live on site; email scheduled. |
| Caregiver Support Group | Finalized and live on site; email scheduled. |
| Cupid Carryout | Revised version due to Erica tomorrow (Feb 11) based on her feedback. |
| March events | Design begins after Cupid Carryout is approved. |
Erica raised the need to respond to all incoming Google reviews (positive and negative) — a standard reputation management best practice. The previous agency had handled this.
Decision: Asymmetric will not take on review responses. This is outside their scope given client volume. Bodo will identify an internal owner. Asymmetric remains available for strategy guidance (e.g., how to solicit more reviews, response tone/approach).
Tuesday, Feb 17 at 10:30 AM — Post-launch review of the live site. Biweekly cadence begins from there.
