Why you should visit your dentist in Ann Arbor regularly
Taking care of your smile doesn't have to be complicated, and you don't have to do it alone. Your dentist can help, and that's why you should visit your dentist regularly. Dr. Craig Blogin in Ann Arbor, MI, wants to share the importance of dental visits and how often you should have a dental examination.
You should visit your dentist at least once each year for:
- A complete dental examination during which your dentist will assess the health of your teeth, diagnose tooth decay, gum or periodontal disease, and other issues, and answer any questions you may have
- Dental x-rays which allow your dentist to see the roots of your teeth, supporting bone, and other structures not visible during the clinical examination
You should also visit your dental hygienist for a professional dental cleaning at least every six months, more often if you have periodontal disease. During your dental cleaning, your hygienist will:
- Clean all hard and soft deposits from your teeth and polish your teeth, removing all stains
- Take measurements of the health of your gums and the bone which supports your teeth
- Provide the knowledge and tools for you to keep your smile healthy at home
Remember that keeping your smile healthy also keeps your body healthy. Visiting your dentist regularly can save you time, money, pain and stress. That's because your dentist can diagnose and treat dental issues before they can become major dental problems. Some of the risks of delaying dental treatment include:
- Bleeding gums turning into bone loss
- Bone loss turning into tooth loss
- Decay turning into the need for a root canal
- Decay turning into the need for tooth removal
- Tooth removal resulting in the need for implants, partials, or dentures
Remember to visit your dentist at least once each year, and your dental hygienist at least every six months to protect your smile. You deserve to have a healthy smile for life, so call Dr. Blogin in Ann Arbor, MI, today!

The worldwide swine flu situation continues to evolve rapidly and WHO raised the pandemic alert level to phase 5 last night.
By 7 pm yesterday, nine countries had officially reported 148 cases of swine influenza A/H1N1 infection. The US Government had reported 91 laboratory confirmed human cases, with one death. Mexico had reported 26 confirmed human cases of infection including seven deaths.
The following countries have reported laboratory confirmed cases with no deaths – Austria (1), Canada (13), Germany (3), Israel (2), New Zealand (3), Spain (4) and the United Kingdom (5).
Further information on the situation will be regularly updated on the WHO website. WHO advises no restriction of regular travel or closure of borders. It is considered prudent for people who are ill to delay international travel and for people developing symptoms following international travel to seek medical attention, in line with guidance from national authorities.
There is also no risk of infection from this virus from consumption of well-cooked pork and pork products. Individuals are advised to wash hands thoroughly with soap and water on a regular basis and should seek medical attention if they develop any symptoms of influenza-like illness.

During his media interaction, Matt Hardy revealed that he is not was not going to be retiring. He just needed time away from the ring to deal with his injuries, before making a full comeback when his body would allow him to.

It has been a while since I have ventured into the world of Primark. Every time I walk past the place it is busting to the rims with far too many people. (I have space issues!) As the rain poured down on a very miserable Thursday evening, I knew it would be the perfect time to tackle my fear as no sane person would risk the rain.
I have to say, I am so happy I went. The latest Spring/Summer collections are stunning. The seas of bold and vibrant colours were a joy to witness. I spent quite a few hours browsing around at my own pace and taking and trying everything on.
One item I bought is possibly the prettiest dress I have ever seen. I know what colours work with my skin tone, bold and bright. And of course it was a beautiful chiffon number. The base colour is a vibrant yellow with flowers throughout the dress. From turquoises to pinks, no colour has been left out.
There is also a purple skinny belt with it to nip you in at the waist and give you more of a shape. It's sweet and short and perfect for summer nights on the town. The best part of the evening was the price. This beautiful bargain was only £13.
I also bought a few other things but I'm saving these for my other posts. Hope you all have had an amazing weekend. Have fun!

Jason Trawick No Longer Britney's AgentMay 24, 2011
News surfaced several days ago that Jason Trawick is no longer apart of Britney's professional life, but I had bigger chickens to fry.
Famos LLC, a partnership with musician and media impresario, Dave Stewart and legendary Rolling Stones frontman, Mick Jagger, asked Trawick to oversee the company's arts and entertainment brand.
"F*star is a white-label of the famos* media syndication platform, specifically tailored to address the unique needs of individuals and entities with broad digital reach and influence. In his new capacity, Mr. Trawick will continue to work closely with his former employer as the new online service, currently under wraps at http://www.famos.com, readies for a planned summer debut."
Trawick, who's worked for the William Morris Endeavor Agency for years, has represented stars such as Taylor Swift, Hilary Duff, Pauley D (Jersey Shore), Paris Hilton, Heidi Klum and Britney herself.
Rent Sidon, Famos LLC founder and CEO, "We're delighted to have Jason on board with us at famos*. He clearly grasps the distinction between digital fame and real-world celebrity, and he's got the experience, credibility and instincts to effectively bridge the two."
Mr. Trawick says, "As agents, we're constantly getting pitched deals with some new technology that's going to revolutionize this or monetize that, when basically they're all just reading off the same script. Famos* is a different animal — a disruptive technology that respects the artist and values the fan, which is basically everything my clients ever wanted."
Adds Trawick, "It's a very exciting opportunity for me professionally, and I'm humbled to be a part of such a visionary partnership."

Some women who will undergo Cesarean operation can ask their physicians to do tubal ligation after giving birth if they don't plan to have additional children.
Aside from women, even men can also undergo surgical birth control methods through vasectomy. Vasectomy prevents sperm cells from passing to the penis to avoid fertilization. However, it's still necessary to have another form of protection as sperm cells are still in the system three months after the procedure.

Today's cyberattacks are bigger, more sophisticated, and more destructive than ever. All it takes is one breach to devastate an organization, and tarnish its brand. Therefore, CISOs and CIOs1 must be able to stay one step ahead, proactively anticipating and minimizing IT risks. This kind of foresight is particularly critical as organizations adopt new digital platforms, cloud-based systems, and mobility solutions, all of which increase the attack surface.
At times, the weakest cybersecurity link may lie in a vendor's IT system—which means that organizations have to not only monitor their own IT risks, but also those of their third parties. They also need to comply with a range of IT regulations like GDPR, the SOX Act, FFIEC mandates, PCI-DSS, GLBA requirements, HIPAA, and NERC-CIP2, as well as IT governance standards such as those set by NIST and ISO 27001/23.
Managing all these requirements and risks the traditional way—i.e. using siloed systems and manual processes—is neither effective nor efficient. IT risks, regulations, controls, and related data are only growing more numerous and complex. To gain better control over them, many organizations are looking to integrate and streamline their cybersecurity management efforts.Download Solution Brief

I am a Deaf queer mixed latinx femme and a full time activist advocating for accessibility within the LGBTQ community in San Diego. I use they|them pronouns. I hold an AA degree in Alcohol and Other Drugs Studies and I also have a BA degree in Sociology. I am pursuing a Master's degree in Public Health.
As part of my community work, I am currently involved with San Diego Pride, San Diego Trans Pride and SheFest as their accessibility manager, making sure their events and meetings are accessible for all people with disabilities including Deaf folx. In addition, I provide free accessibility training workshops for community members, event organizers, organizations and agencies that serve LGBTQ folks in San Diego county.
Inaccessibility is a public health matter and will continue to be prevalent as more and more people are becoming disabled and they experience multiple disabilities as well as intersectional oppressions including discrimination. I believe that a sense of community is vital for the Deaf + LGBTQ population to thrive. It brings feelings of identity and pride as well as kinship, and is made possible through processes such as full accessibility, communication, inter-group relations and networking. This is where my true passion comes in, networking and building a support system with ready access to resources, services and events for all members of the LGBTQ community in San Diego.

More than two (count 'em, two) years ago, I had suggested myself as candidate for the post of proofreader (unpaid) to the United States Tax Court. See my blogpost "I Volunteer," 4/6/16. My offer was not taken up, for reasons that seem obscure to me.
So I remember today Harold Ross, legendary editor of the New Yorker magazine, which, in my college days, I dreamed of editing.
It was said of Ross that he believed only two persons were universally known by only one name, Houdini and Holmes (sorry, Judge; Ross meant Sherlock). Wherefore, Ross was wont to blue-pencil every piece wherein a person was referred to for the first time by only one name, no matter how prominent the person or unique the name, with his famous phrase "who he?".
The joke was that he once blue-penciled a drama criticism wherein the name "Euripides" appeared with a "who he?"
Well, at last I can ape my salad-days' hero.
Here's Estate of Eunice Sherwood, Deceased, Anthony Sherwood, Independent Administrator, Docket No. 25111-17, filed 9/25/18. It seems the late Eunice became the late Eunice post-petition, so Judge Gale amends the caption appropriately. Then he approves the late Eunice's attorney's (whom I'll call Mr. W) exit, as none of Mr. Sherwood the Indie Adm'r, his counsel, or IRS, objects thereto.
But there remains the question what happens now.
Judge Gale deals with that. "In the circumstances, we conclude that Mr. W lacks authority to act on behalf of decedent's estate and must withdraw from the case. In view of Mr. Sherwood's appointment as administrator of decedent's estate, we will order that he be substituted as a party. In the event Mr. Sherwood does not wish to prosecute this case, he should consent to a motion by the Commissioner (respondent) to dismiss for failure to properly prosecute. Mr. Sherman is advised, however, that– barring any concession by respondent–a dismissal of the case for failure to properly prosecute will result in a decision in respondent's favor for the entire amount of the deficiency." Order, at p. 2.
"Mr. Sherman"? Who he?

Insights from Linguistics
by Dr. Ichak Adizes
On my recent trip to Russia to receive an honorary doctorate from the Academy of National Economy of the Russian Federation (following Stanley Fisher, who received it last year), I made a discovery that confirmed an illumination I had had thirty years ago.
I have reported about that illumination in my tapes and in one of my books. Let me summarize it quickly, explain what experience generated it and present to you what I recently learned about it in Russia.
Around 1972, I was lecturing in Monterey, the economic powerhouse of Mexico, to the top management of their industry. At that time, since I did not yet speak modern Spanish, I lectured in English via simultaneous translation.
I dislike using simultaneous translations. One reason is that I use jokes in my lectures, and occasionally, by the time the audience laughs (if they do at all), I am already on a different subject. On that particular day, frustrated, I asked the audience if they would mind if I lectured in classical (or medieval) Spanish. How do I know classical Spanish? Well, I am a descendent of the Spanish Jews who were expelled from Spain in 1492, during the Inquisition, because they refused to convert to Christianity. Those Jews, called Sephardim, spoke this medieval Spanish, called Ladino, at home and among themselves for hundreds of years. My grandmother did not know any other language but Ladino. So I learned to speak it from her. If you listen to it, it will sound like a mixture of Spanish, French, Portuguese, and Italian; apparently all these languages originated from Ladino.
So here I am in Mexico with some of the most respected and powerful Mexican oligarchs, trying to deliver 20th-century material in 15th-century language. And guess what? Something very interesting happened.
At a certain point in my lecture I noticed that the audience was not following what I was saying. So I asked them in 15th-century Spanish, in Ladino: "Did you hear me?" They replied that in modern Spanish, "to hear" is a completely different word. In modern Spanish, the word I had just used, "sentir," means "to feel." In a sense, I had asked them if they'd "felt" me when I'd meant to ask them if they'd "heard" me.
The word "sentir" in French means "to smell"; in Italian, "to listen," in Spanish "to feel". Five hundred years ago, one word was used to signify all of them: to hear, to listen, to feel, even to smell. In effect, the word meant "to sense." In modern Spanish there are still remnants of various older meanings of the word "sentir." When one is hard of hearing, Mexicans describe that as "mal de sentido," which is like saying "hard of feeling." And a one-way street they call "un sentido," as if to say "one-way feeling."
My illumination was that if one word had once had all these meanings, it must mean that, back then, when one heard, one also listened and one felt. In other words, one actually sensed what was going on.
That was thirty years ago. Then, about ten years later when I was consulting for the Greek government, someone told me that the same linguistic phenomenon exists in the Greek language. In Corfu, an island a bit isolated from the rest of Greece where people speak a somewhat more classical Greek, they too use the same word to mean "to hear," "to listen," and "to feel."
Now, in Russia I have found that in Ukrainian, which is a Slavic language, the word "chut" means "to listen"; while in Russian and in Serbian (another Slavic language), it means "to hear."
These findings cannot be considered a fluke anymore. I do not believe that the Spanish, Russian and Greek languages were ever so similar that they would parallel each other in the use of the words "to hear," "to listen," "to feel," and "to smell." Thus, it seems that my illumination of thirty years ago has been confirmed: Regardless of culture, land, or language, five hundred years ago people were apparently more "together": when they heard, they listened and felt what was going on.
Modern man has different words for these different phenomena – which means that today it is possible to hear without listening, to listen without feeling, and even to hear and listen and still not sense what is going on. A modern person needs training in order to develop awareness and sensitivity, which apparently was a natural capability for people hundreds of years ago.
With the advance of technology, we have three different words. We are disconnecting. We need psychotherapists to be our intermediaries, to help us feel what the other person who is in pain is trying to tell us. We need to take courses on how to become more aware, and we have to pay to be trained to feel. We use words that indicate an increasing insensitivity, increasing distance from each other. Listen to the words: "tune out," "turn off," "fade out." An animal is more integrated than we are. Take for example my dog. When I get home, he comes to smell me, and from the smell he knows how I feel: he senses whether to go to a corner and leave me alone or that I am ready to play and scratch his tummy. Compare that to people, even those I am very close to. By the time they've listened to what they've heard – and then actually felt what I've said, I might have become too desperate to communicate anymore.
Are we falling apart? While we are technologically advancing, are we "losing it" as humans? Does development on one hand lead to disintegration on the other hand? Do centripetal forces necessarily give birth to centrifugal forces? Ironically, while the globe is becoming a big village, countries are breaking apart and blind nationalism is pushing us further away from each other. Are centripetal and centrifugal forces operating at the same time? Is there a balanced, zero-sum game going on somewhere?
Does anyone else have examples of this phenomenon in their language? Whether yes or no, what is your reaction to this illumination?
Here is another observation:
In some languages certain words have no translation, which to me means something: If the word does not exist in a particular language, perhaps the speakers of that language do not recognize or appreciate the phenomenon that the word signifies. The more they articulate a phenomena with different words , the more it means to them. Eskimos for instance have many words for "snow": soft snow, hard snow etc., while we have only one word: "snow".
Now note this: I have reported in almost all of my books that the word "management" has no translation in any of the 52 countries I have lectured in so far. Except for Hebrew, all the languages use the English word "management" because their own languages have no literal translation. Even the French, who tenaciously insist on using French words nevertheless when they want to talk about management they use the English word. It is the same with the Spanish language: it has words which translate as "to direct" and "to administer," but these are only aspects of the managerial process and do not encompass the full role of management. When the Spanish want to speak about management, they use the English word. And as I discovered on this trip, this is also true of Russian.
Why is this happening? Is it because the managerial process as we know it is a Western/American invention rather than an indigenous process that the rest of the world recognizes as its own?
What do you think?
Here is another insight I got from watching how words get translated.
When one of my books was being translated into Swedish, I recieved a call from an editor who told me that there is no Swedish word for "entrepreneur." The editor wanted to use the word "creative" instead. He added, however, that during the Middle Ages, a Swedish word meaning "entrepreneur" actually did exist. How interesting this is. Could it mean that since the word died out over the years, then maybe the phenomenon also died?
In France, the word "entrepreneur" (which is a French word) is used to describe a real estate developer. It is not a generic word signifying anyone who builds any business, as we use the word in English. It is possible that the French narrowed down the meaning of the word "entrepreneur" because the phenomenon of entrepreneurship is also dying in France – while the word "administration" is flourishing: There are dozens of schools for administration but not one for entrepreneurship. Can we further say that the decline in the use of the word and of the prevalence of entrepreneurship might partially explain the economic woes of the French economy? I know this argument is a bit of a stretch, but what do you think?
Another interesting finding from my trip: In Russia today, there is no word in their language for the concepts of either "accountability" or "privacy." How might this affect the development of market forces, competition, and managed entrepreneurship?
Here is another one: Not all languages have a translation for the English words "effectiveness" and "efficiency." Hebrew, for instance, has a word for "efficiency," but not for "effectiveness." They translate "effectiveness" as "purposeful," which might be acceptable to describe long-term effectiveness (to have a purpose is long-term effectiveness), but does not describe short-term effectiveness.
This missing word for short-term effectiveness explains to me a phenomenon that I've observed both in business and political meetings in Israel. The participants in these meetings can get very Talmudic: lots of arguments and vocal disagreements. But after a while you wonder: What are they disagreeing about? What is the agenda? This would not happen in the United States, where the short-term focus is maintained and the meetings end with decisions that are effective.
In Sweden, too, the language is missing one of these words. I cannot remember whether it was "effectiveness" or "efficiency," but knowing the culture, I would bet that the absent word is probably "effectiveness." The Swedes are very organized and thus efficient – but effectiveness is not a strength. This is just the opposite of the Norwegians, who are "effective" but not "efficient."
Does anyone have other examples of words that exist in English but not in other languages, or words in a different language that do not exist in English? Take the Japanese word "Hi": It does not exist in English. It is often loosely translated as "yes." Many Americans doing business in Japan have gotten into trouble because of this translation, because they believe that their Japanese counterpart, in saying "Hi," has become fully committed to a plan or idea, when in reality that is far from being so. "Hi" is translated as "yes" because it is as close as the translator can get in English to the Japanese language; while in Japanese it means: "Yes, I hear you. Tell me more." It is not the real confirmative, binding commitment that "yes" means in English. In Japanese, "hi" is better translated as "I am not saying 'No.' Yes, let us continue talking." The word "hi" reflects the Japanese cultural preference for non-confrontational negotiations, while for us in English, "yes" is "yes" and "no" is "no." It's much
more black and white.
As I lecture around the world, I pay attention to how words are used and translated, and in doing so I learn a lot about other cultures and their managerial process. I also pay attention to folk expressions – what the grandmothers say. There is much to learn from old wisdom, but let us leave that for another Insight.

"Multiple hospital visits"
About: St John of God Midland Hospital / Critical Care Unit St John of God Midland Hospital Critical Care Unit Midland 6056 St John of God Midland Hospital / Emergency Department St John of God Midland Hospital Emergency Department Midland 6056
Posted by ospreysn94 (as ),
One morning about a year ago the person I care for was given his depot injection prior to attending his appointment with the psychiatrist at Swan Mental health. During the visit, it was found that he was mentally not well and a decision was made to admit him to SJOG Hospital.
I visited him at least once a day and found him to be ok, but drowsy at times; during the last time I visited, I noticed that he was having difficulty staying awake, so I left so that he could go and have a rest.
The next morning I received a phone call at approximately 6am telling me that he had collapsed and had been taken to the Emergency Department. I asked if he was alright and was told yes he was; I went to work. At about 9.30am I phoned to check on him and was advised to make my way to the hospital as he was now in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).
I did not understand the reason given for why he ended up in the ICU. I was told he was very sick.
During the stay in ICU I was asked 'if he had done this before', I understood this to mean 'has he overdosed before'. I answered 'yes' but this had been a very long time ago/many years ago and nothing recent.
I was asked about his current medication and gave a list.
When he recovered he was transferred to a General Ward as he was having difficulty walking; he was referred for physiotherapy. We attended one appointment and found this not to be very useful as he was given exercises. In my opinion he needed something more than exercises to help with his mobility.
When he was discharged from hospital, he walked out with the aid of a walking stick.
He is obese and has Type 2 diabetes, and none of these illnesses have posed a problem up to this point. I acknowledge that he had not been very compliant with taking his oral medication at this time.
He was admitted to hospital another two times since the above:
End of 2017 – he had two abscesses near his rear, which had to be drained surgically; this was done and unfortunately, he discharged himself from hospital. On returning home, he was now using a Webster Frame to assist with walking. Note that the surgery was carried out using an epidural injection in the spine. Has this procedure affected his mobility?
A few months ago – he was very unwell and admitted to SJOG with very low oxygen levels, swollen legs and feet and unable to move at all. I understood on this occasion he had very low oxygen level, he had pneumonia, and he had difficulty breathing.
He is relatively young man, obese, and had no difficulty walking prior to being admitted to SJOG originally. It is a regular occurrence for him to be admitted for mental health treatment spending 2-3 weeks in hospital then returning home.
On this occasion I am left wondering what caused him to collapse and end up in ICU, and why he cannot walk, and if he will ever walk again? Why has no long-term assistance been organised for him to help with his mobility?
Did the epidural injection affect his mobility?
Why (with the most recent visit to hospital) was he not referred to the Rehabilitation area for assistance to help with his mobility? He is still unable to walk without the aid of a Webster frame; caring for him is taking its toll on my health and wellbeing.
In the main we do not have an issue with the treatment received at the hospital apart from the incident which occurred during the first admission described above. With subsequent admissions a social worker has been involved in working with him and has been very good and organised for a provider to help prepare the midday meal for four weeks (as I am at work and he unable to do this himself).
Dear ospreysn94,
Thank you for your feedback regarding the admission of your relative to St John of God Midland Public Hospital. Your feedback has been brought to my attention and I was sorry to learn of your experience. I would like the opportunity to meet with you personally to discuss your ongoing concerns. I look forward to meeting with you and discussing how we can work together and achieve the best possible outcomes for your relative with any readmission to our hospital. Please contact the Consumer Liaison Coordinator on 9462 4901 to organise a time to meet should you wish to do so.
Kind regards
Michael Hogan
CEO St John of God Midland Public Hospital

Karwa Chauth 2019: Significance, Rituals and Beliefs
17 Oct 2019
Get Your Hand-written Janampatri By Our Experts.
Karwa Chauth festival falls on the fourth day in the dark fortnight of the Karthik month. This year it will fall on October 17, 2019. While married women observe the fast for the longevity and well-being of their husbands, some maidens observe it with a desire to get a good partner.
Some important aspects of Karwa Chauth:
On the Karwa Chauth day, the Shiva parivaar, that is, Lord Shiva himself, Goddess Parvati, Lord Ganesha and Lord Kartikeya are supposed to be worshipped. The family of Lord Shiva is considered to be the most ideal one and both Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati are known to confer great marital happiness and material prosperity. The other deity who holds utmost importance on this day is the Moon.
The alternative beliefs:
In the days of yore, the festival of Karwa Chauth was celebrated by a bride and a specially chosen woman to be her best friend in her in-laws place as per Karwa Chauth story. The bride could confide anything to this 'friend' in her in-laws place, and it was mostly a friendship with the aim to help the bride get to know her in-laws better and break the ice to establish communications. However, over time, this aspect of the festival fizzled out and women started observing a fast on the day, four days into the Kartik month, to pray for the longevity of her husband. Are you facing a rough patch in your marital sphere? Do you feel that the charm in the relationship is lacking? Then our personalised report - Marital Problems is tailor-made for you!
Some of the most important paraphernalia that form a part of this festival are: Kumkum (Vermillion), Honey, Incense Sticks, Flowers, Cow Milk, Curd, Ghee (Clarified Butter), Lamps, Wheat, Camphor, Sieve, etc.
The military angle:
Karwa Chauth also used to be celebrated in the north and north-western parts of India by the wives of soldiers when they were about to depart on a long-distance journey in the line of duty to protect the country. Their wives prayed that their husbands emerge victorious and return safely. It is spoken of in the Mahabharata that Krishna told Draupadi that if she fasted on the day of Karwa Chauth, the Pandavas would come back safely from the war. Our tradition is very rich. It has some very powerful methods to help us live well. One such technique is Kundli Matching, where the horoscopes of the boy and girl is matched before they get married.
Other legends:
Karwa Chauth falls in the wheat sowing season, that is at the beginning of the Rabi crop season. In ancient time wheat was stored in huge earthen pots, also called 'Karwa', and since it falls on the fourth day of the Kartik month, it began to be called Karwa Chauth. Women would pray for their husbands to reap a rich harvest. Then there is the belief that if unmarried women fast on this day, they are likely to get a very handsome husband.
Karwa Chauth symbolises the spirit of romance and affection between a wife and her husband. Some Bollywood films have beautifully depicted the concept of this festival.
On Karwa Chauth, women wake up early, finish their morning chores, and then worship Lord Shiva, Parvati and Ganesha as per the puja vidhi, and then they eat something, but this is done before Sunrise. Once the Sun rises, women start their fast, and do not even drink a drop of water as per the Karwa Chauth vrat vidhi. After Sun-set, when the moon rises, they look at the face of their husband through a sieve, and then break their fast.
On Karwa Chauth, the women are generally advised not to indulge in strenuous activities. Moreover, even after breaking the fast, light food should be consumed.

Top Reason Residential Lawn Maintenance Contracts Are Bad Business
Good Business Strategy Vs A Good Story
How To Get Traction In Your Business
Why Building An Organizational Chart Is Important To Your Company
How Do I Structure A Competitive Employee Compensation Plan?
Should I Accept Lawn Maintenance Subcontractor Jobs?
In this video, Jonathan gives the pros and cons of accepting lawn maintenance subcontractor jobs.
I've had a number of Service Autopilot clients and individuals that watch Lawn Care Millionaire email me and ask this question. It has to do with management companies that control a lot of work. Maybe not necessarily a property management company but you might imagine in this scenario a company that has foreclosed on properties and has to have or find a contractor to go out and mow the property, change the locks, wash the windows, or perform some level of service. There are a lot of these companies and basically they will give you work and they will pay you for that work. Basically they'll give you a list of maybe 50 jobs they need you to service. You'll do the 50 jobs and they'll give you a check.
I'm not sure what you call those companies. I think of them as management companies and there are a lot of these. We have quite a number of Service Autopilot clients that will work with these companies. Over the years, we've had some Service Autopilot clients that exclusively built their entire business around getting a spreadsheet every week from a management company and doing as much of that work as they possibly could. They would then send in before and after pictures and get paid.
The question was, is this a good idea? Should I take this work? Should I accept the lawn maintenance subcontractor jobs? It comes with a contract that you have to sign. Is it a good thing for my business? My answer most recently, and I've given this answer before, is I don't think that doing work with these management companies is a great long term strategy to build your business around.
Their jobs generally pay less. They don't generate as much revenue for you as a job where you went out and sold it and found that client yourself. Also, these jobs tend to be harder on your equipment and they tend to be more difficult to perform. These are generalizations. That's not always true but that's been my finding and my understanding in talking with others.
The other concern that I have about jobs of this type is that if you get too much or too many of these jobs, you're building your business around one customer. If they stopped giving you work, it could be really bad for your business. It could potentially end your business if they make up too much of your revenue. I would say that early on if you're just getting started or you're very small that accepting this type of work might make sense strategically. You might want to accept this type of work for some period of time while you're learning how to sell and market and bring in your own work.
In other words, you would perform this work for a while. It would help you bring revenue to your business which would help you grow, hire employees, buy equipment, things of that sort while at the same time you're working on marketing and getting your own clients where you eventually replace the work you're getting from the management company with your own clients. You would slowly phase out of accepting that type of work.
My answer is, I think it makes sense strategically for a short while in your business. But, don't let it get you distracted from doing your own marketing and getting your own clients. If you take so much work from the management company that you're so busy and you're doing most of the work yourself that you're now too busy to go really build a business, all you've done is secured for yourself a job and you're not building a real company. That job could all go away one day if the management company stops giving you work.
That's my recommendation on how to think about taking lawn maintenance subcontractor jobs.
Why I Don't 100% Agree With The EMyth for Landscapers
What makes a lawn care business successful? Learn why I don't 100% agree with the EMyth for landscapers.
A very long time ago I read the book, EMyth, by Michael Gerber. It's a really good book. It was a very influential book. It absolutely had an effect on how I think. But, thereare a number of reasons why I don't completely agree with the EMyth for landscapers. At first glance, if you read the book, you will think that you need to create a process and a procedure and a script for every single thing in your business.
While a lot of that resonates with me, and it makes a lot of sense, and I do think you need a lot of that in your business, what I feel that possibly isn't communicated is that in the world we live in today, where we are running McDonald's type businesses, and what the next 10 years looks like, I believe that if you're going to be a dominant company, your team will not be reading from scripts. They will not be following step-by-step procedures in most every activity. It's not realistic.
Rather, the ideal is that you train your team how to think. You train your team how to talk. You invest significantly in the training process. This isn't a new idea. This isn't my own idea. This is what a lot of very savvy companies do. Take somebody like Zappos. It's a very good company. Their individuals working the phones and selling new shoes are not reading from scripts. They are very well trained. Individuals that can figure out how to solve problems and are empowered to solve their own problems on behalf of the client.
Take Hilton. Hilton is not necessarily my favorite hotel chain, but take a Hilton-type hotel and better, Four Seasons. The individuals in that company have been very well trained. They know how to deal with problems. They know what the most common problems are that could present themselves. They know the most common scenarios that they might bump into in dealing with their clientele, and they've been trained on how to deal with those problems. Then they've also been trained on how to critically think and how to be aware of a situation. That's what's needed in our business. The idea of reading EMyth and creating a step-by-step checklist procedure has absolute value in the business and is needed in the business, but that's not enough.
I think for many of us we think if we create a new procedure or add something to our employee handbook, problem solved. Taken care of. No. It's not solved. Adding something to the employee handbook solves nothing. Nobody wants to read that stupid thing anyway. What they really need is communication. That's what the team needs. They need training, they need instruction, and that's very difficult.
It's easier for us to tell ourselves, "I'll just create a procedure around this. I'll just modify the guidelines or the handbook, problem solved." What I'm saying is that's our easy out as business owners, and as managers. What we really need to be doing is reassessing how we are training, how are we communicating with our team so that our team can solve these problems themselves. The procedure, the process and the task list is an aid that supports a very-trained person that knows how to think critically, to solve problems, and to look out for the company and do what's best for the company.
That's my argument against the black and white implementation of the EMyth for landscapers. I hope that helps you really think about how you can train and make your company great through training.
How Do You See Your Life After You Sell Your Company?
Your life after you sell your business may not be all that you imagine. Here is why…
Recently I recorded several videos about selling your company and it is something that I've thought about for years from different experiences I've had in business. This goes all the way back to mid 2000 in terms of experience in selling your business and thinking about it. It is a topic that I am very aware of and it is a topic that affects both the very small business owner and the multi-million dollar business owner because in both cases you are thinking about it. Many times it is the dream of both, the small guy and the big guy. The little guy a lot of times is in the middle of being frustrated and burned out and dreams of the day he can walk away from their business. The bigger guy might have those exact same dreams, because as you get bigger, your problems don't necessarily go away. You just have different problems.
I think that it is an important topic to think about no matter where you are in business even when you are small. The reason for that is, as you build your company, if you are building just to sell, you build your company completely different and you work on your business in a completely different way. You are more worried about building top line revenue and growing profit as fast as you can whereas, in my opinion, if you are building your company to keep it, you are more worried about culture and people and procedures and systems and things of that sort. Not that you don't worry about those things when you are building your company to sell it because all of those things help you get your company sold at maximize price. Yet you just think about things at a different level.
You want to make sure when you are going to keep your company, that you are still going to want this thing in 5 or 10 years. Whereas when you are building it to sell it, you might mentally let certain things go and say, "I don't care. That's going to sort of be the next person's problem."
I said all of that to lead into a point. I was talking with someone that I am friends with that is very successful, has built multiple very successful businesses, and is at a point where he can take off for 1 or 2 months at a time easily. I am not at that point anymore because I have Service Autopilot. I couldn't be gone for 2 months. Whereas, this individual can and what he has observed from being gone for quite a period of time is it gets pretty boring because all of your best friends still have jobs. They are still working and you can't just call them out there in the middle of their life. They can't necessarily just take off and travel. They might have kids or maybe you have kids and your kids are going through school and your kids have sports.
What he has observed and even other individuals have said the same thing. The idea of selling and walking away, not really having much to do sounds wonderful but, the reality of it is, once you do that, what do you do? Who do you do it with? Everybody else still has a job and everybody else is still working and not everybody else can get away.
I say all of this because I think back in the beginning, you need to know whether you are building to sell or building to keep. You may change your mind but you at least need to know up front because if you are building it to sell, then you are going to do things differently than if you are building it to keep. And what if eventually you have the realization that you know what, maybe selling isn't as great as I thought it would be. Maybe I should focus more on building a great company, one that can run itself. Maybe I should focus a little bit more on solving some of these problems in my business instead of ignoring them because I think they are going to become somebody else's problems down the road.
My point of the video is to consider, and maybe try to look at if you were to sell the company, meaning that you are not going to work as hard on building a great company that you'll own in 10 years. If you are building it to just sell it, what will you do when you actually sell the company? And, if there is a way that you can experience that and find out for yourself, I think that might change your attitude on selling. The other thing about this is I have known a number of people that have sold their companies and become very bored very quickly and in most cases they've sold their company and within a couple of years were disappointed that they had. Even though they made a lot of money, they miss being in the game, they miss having the friendships, they miss being challenged and they miss all of that.
This is two fold. One, try to figure out for yourself exactly what you'd really do if you sold this thing and you had 3, 5, 6 months a year to do nothing. What exactly would you be doing in your life? Is that really something you want? And two, once you have that answer, what might you change within your business, the way you are doing things, or the problems you are not solving, to make it a company that you do love that you will want to keep 10 years from now.

Do You Need A COO Or CEO For Your Company?
This video explains whether a COO or CEO is a better option for your company.
I talk a lot about building a real company that can run itself and that doesn't require your daily involvement. I really do believe that's the ultimate goal of business. You want to build this asset that can generate wealth for you and it becomes an investment in the sense that you don't have to actively participate in it every day to make this thing run and operate.
The goal for many is to get a president or a CEO or someone to run this company. But, here is an alternative thought. What you really need is a COO. You could be CEO or president, they're almost interchangeable terms in most cases. You could be the CEO and still create a pretty exciting, amazing lifestyle and still generate a lot of wealth and not completely relinquish all of your duties within the company.
The number one position that you need in your company so that you have some time and freedom to get away is a COO. It's a Chief Operating Officer. This is the individual that essentially runs operations.
Now, when you're smaller, your operations manager generally isn't the same person that can grow into becoming your COO. COO is typically a term you'd use for a bigger organization. So, your operations manager when you're doing $500,000 or $1 million probably isn't going to be the COO of the company when you're doing $10 million, unless that individual is really learning and studying and growing as an individual. A lot of times you're going to have to replace that individual and bring in someone that has some experience in that area.
The COO is going to run operations. They're going to do a lot of hiring. They're going to do a lot of firing. They're going to make sure the processes and procedures are in place. They make the engine of the company run, whereas the CEO, which might be you, is more the strategy, the strategic thinking, the big ideas, the moving the company forward, leading, and recruiting. A lot of those roles, they can take 60, 70, 80 hours a week, but most of the time they don't really. What I mean by that is if you have a great COO, operations manager, you as CEO could really get away from your company for three weeks. You could get away from your company for four weeks and the company will still keep turning and running.
I created the video because it's very easy to think you've got to hire a president or CEO to run your company. You believe that until you get to that point, you won't have built a real company and that's not necessarily the case. What I'm suggesting is that what you really want to focus on is operations and then hiring a COO-type person to run the operations of the company. You don't have to completely walk away from this thing to be a great company that can sort of run itself to be a real company. Rather, you could put yourself in a position where all you do is the core CEO-type activities of strategy and some money and key hires and things of that sort.
When that's all you have to do within your business, now you have a lot of time to do other things. You have a lot of time to go on trips, a lot of time to be involved in your family's life, or to start another business or to do something else. Now you're not consumed by the daily grind of everything that goes into building and running a company. Think in terms of COO versus CEO.

How are you getting the feathered edge? You cannot use FHMX RGB Raster
Effects with spot inks.
I have also seen a bug in FHMX radial gradients when using spot inks. I
suggest using a blend of ellipses (or crescent shapes, in your case) and
paste inside a clipping path.
If you upload a picture of the logo to a web site, someone here can probably
advise you if and how it can be built with spot inks.

Looking For A New Car For Your Teen? – Tips and Ideas
When you look for a new car for your teen, your top priority must be SAFETY. Teens are known to be more impulsive and negligent when they drive, which is confirmed by statistics showing that teens are involved in significantly more fatal crashes than adults.
Regardless the type of car you choose (new or used, cheap or expensive), make sure it is as safe as possible and offer it as a gift only after you educated your child to drive responsibly by enrolling them in one of the Colorado Springs driving schools.
Here are some car buying tips for you.
Find the right fit
For teens, a mid-size car is the ideal choice. Large trucks and SUVs can be too much for fledgling drivers, while small cars offer limited protection in the event of an accident.
Make sure the vehicle has safety features
The most important ones are airbags, ESC (electronic stability control) and VSC (vehicle stability control).
New vs. used
There are advantages and disadvantages in both cases. A new car has the latest features and amenities, but it is a big investment and putting such an investment in inexperienced hands is risky. Some parents prefer to wait until their teen gets more driving experience and, in the mean time, they opt for a used car instead of purchasing a new one.
Either way, you should avoid vehicles with high horsepower and, if you buy a second-hand car, make sure you also pay attention to the mileage, check maintenance records and get a pre-purchase inspection.
