PacketFront Seeking UTOPIA Supporters

PacketFront is looking for UTOPIA supporters both in member and non-member cities to organize some peer-to-peer marketing efforts and spread information about UTOPIA via word-of-mouth. Please e-mail Chris Hogan, VP of Marketing at PacketFront, at Chris.Hogan@packetfront.com if you're willing to help spread the network in member cities and get your city to join. I already know of a few small groups in Sandy, West Jordan, Taylorsville and Salt Lake City who are eager to join and the word on the street is that Cedar City has considered switching to pledging status sometime soon to speed construction.

Given the well-funded opposition to UTOPIA from Qwest, Comcast and the Utah Taxpayers Association, it's absolutely critical that we show up in force at future city council meetings and do everything we can to raise awareness and get others to sign up for service. Ten of the eleven pledging cities have decided to "double down" and give UTOPIA a second chance; it's up to us to help prove that this increased risk wasn't for nothing.

    Hi Jesse,

    Just sent them a note that I would love to help out in any way. I live in Layton in the first phase construction area and I’m chomping at the bit to get them to run the fiber the last few feet to my house! 🙂

    I’d also like to give you a big thanks for all the great work keeping us informed, I know it takes a lot of your time and it is VERY much appreciated.

    Steve
