The question surprised the waiter at Las Cruces Tex Mex.
“Can I hold it?” an excited Lindsey Patton asked, referring to the SpotOn Handheld device the waitress was using to take the table’s orders.
The waiter obliged, satisfying Lindsey’s appetite for SpotOn technology.
“I was having a little moment,” Lindsey says, chuckling while thinking back on it.
Lindsey worked at news organizations for 15 years before coming to SpotOn, but her first job as a teenager was at a local diner, so it’s easy for her to see how tech helps restaurants.
“Things would have been a lot better then with the tech we have now,” Lindsey quips.
Lindsey has been in Sales Operations for SpotOn for three years, working remote in New Orleans. An avid traveler, she’s maximized SpotOn’s remote work setup, enabling her to visit cities across the county… as well as SpotOn clients across the country.
“I’m going to need to eat while I’m visiting these places,” Lindsey says, “so why not support SpotOn clients while dining out?”
What started with eating at local New Orleans SpotOn restaurants such as Katie’s Restaurant & Bar and Central City BBQ has taken her to SpotOn clients in Louisiana, Michigan, Illinois, Maryland, Washington, D.C., Florida, and Colorado, with plans for more in the works.
