Rebranding a .Org
Marker Seven is excited to be working with an amazing startup non-profit, The Human Needs project.
Founded by actress Connie Nielsen and leading green builder David Warner, HNP's mission is to create game-changing infrastructures called 'Town Centers' in poverty-stricken areas of the world, beginning in Kibera, Kenya. The Town Centers will provide fresh water, electricity, healthy food, education, Internet, and access to micro-credit using methods that are both ecologically and economically sustainable. It's a revolutionary idea we are convinced will better the lives of those who need it most.

Marker Seven's State of the Business Meeting
Marker Seven recently enjoyed an educational and fun-filled day of paintball, hiking, fireside grilling and team building on a 1500-acre ranch in the beautiful hills of Marin County. As an added bonus, a biologist working on the property talked with us about efforts to protect endangered local species such as the red-legged frog, the steelhead trout and the many rare plant types that inhabit the area. The day included a “state of the business” presentation to align our goals for the coming year and to talk about Marker Seven’s vision for the future. This off-site adventure was a great way for our team to connect with one of the many pro bono projects we are...

Integrating Salesforce with Drupal 7
We were recently inspired by Salesforce’s annual “Dreamforce” conference to show how important it is for Drupal websites to integrate with Salesforce. The most common use case for integrating Salesforce with a Drupal site is something like this: Visitors fill out a contact webform on a Drupal website. The data from the form submission is transmitted to Salesforce, where it’s stored as a new record (or "lead" in CRM terms).
The old way to accomplish this integration (before later versions of Drupal 6.x and Drupal 7) was to use Salesforce’s API along with a Salesforce Suite Drupal module. There’s also a...
Marker Seven launches web solution for Pearson Media
We're proud to announce the release of one of our latest projects: an integrated web solution for Pearson Media's (part of Pearson Education) online media courses.
