Retail
The retail industry stared down the apocalypse and continues on. Dramatic changes have come about, and a new vocabulary has arisen including omni-channel, real time conversion, clienteling, point-of-sale system, RFID, etc. Plenty of retailers are thriving in this new area, and the industry as a whole is growing.
So, whether you’re a retail seller, proprietor of retail related technology, or an industry publication, I can provide your customers/clients the content they need to navigate the dynamic landscape. By the way, my work which has been geared toward both e-based retailers and traditional brick and mortar.
Construction
The construction industry is booming these days and is expected to continue to grow in coming years. I’ve interacted with all types in the construction industry from those who create the designs, to those doing the heavy lifting, and to those writing the checks.
So, whether you’re an architecture firm, general contractor, developer, construction company, or an industry publication, I can help you spotlight a project, highlight an employee, or explain a technique. My work has focused on all areas of construction including: commercial, industrial, residential, and highway.
Education
Straight from over a decade in the high school and college classroom, I speak the language of education. I’ve worked with all the key players – parents, educators, administrators, and students – and understand their needs and concerns.
So, whether you’re an innovative Ed Tech company focusing on personalized learning to help students develop skills and reach their potential or an education publication espousing the needs of collaboration, engagement, and community, I can help. One more thing, I create learning materials that engages and empowers students.
I’m a neat freak, and I’m raising an 11-year-old slob. Where did I go wrong?
I also worry about my kids growing up to be slobs. So far they’re pretty tidy, but I don’t know what I’d do if they one day have houses that are grimy and cluttered and stinky. Would I have to stay at a hotel when I came to visit?
Isn’t it easier to overlook a mess when it isn’t your own?
I don’t know. I’m just as touchy.
Funny thought/question.
I think my kids particularly BR is going to need to be able to afford maid.
Thanks so much for this essay over at my place, Larry. And as the mother of two messy sons who seem to have grown up neater than their mother, can I just say… I’m grateful that’s the case?
Thanks for the opportunity Wolfie. It was a pleasure working with you.
Left a comment over there. Nice post, Larry.
Thanks Carrie.
I confess I am not an exceptionally neat person. Papers pile up. Books are haphazardly stacked here or there around the house. This can go on for weeks then I will be overcome with the need to tidy and clean. And then, after some months, like a whirlwind, usually at 2am, I tear through my house putting books on shelves, papers get filed, floors get washed. That lasts about a week and then slowly the clutter finds it way back into the neatness. Sigh, it’s a pattern.
I like you anyway. I just feel more content and at ease in a cleaner atmosphere. It’s my issues.
Hmm, I don’t know. I’m trying to instill a clean-up-when-you’re-finished routine. I used to be better at sticking to it, and then I just kind of got lazy. So, I’m trying to get back into that.
My son, as of now, seems to like cleaning and like things neat. But I don’t know what will be later on, or what his sister, or future siblings, will be like.
At any rate, I have my hands full just trying to get the house decently clean, and convincing Yitzchak that putting things in the right place the first time actually saves time and energy later on.
It’s definitely not easy to keep the place as clean as we would like. It doesn’t always happen.
I hope your son continues to like cleaning.
