WOW we've reached 100 newsletter issues!
100 newsletters . . . boy does time fly, it was five years ago when I started out with a free "Google Blogger" account, which I was using to post a few remodeling pictures to prospective customers. [ Read that story here]
Shortly after, the blog "A Concord Carpenter Comments" turned into what is today known as "A Concord Carpenter," a recognized tool and how-to web publication.
The team [All Pro contractors] at ACC uses our PRO knowledge and experience to help folks solve problems and to educate on best practices in the remodeling industry.
Becoming a web publication with a newsletter boasting thousands of subscribers was not easy and my team at ACC works on it every day. The key to ACC's success is today's tip below.
Today's Tip
Here at Concord Carpenter we believe the key to business longevity and our success is balanced on being consistent and providing you with honest, quality content.
1. Consistency
Consistency is an element no easy to maintain. Being consistent in everything we do helps turn a
"once in a while" into an "everyday" effort. It takes time to turn an act into a habit.
The importance of consistency in business seems so basic as to not
need discussion. Yet many companies, especially smaller ones,
operate on a day-by-day, disorganized,
undisciplined and inefficient manner.
The frenetic, never-enough "time, money, people" reality of small
business can make us feel like we're running on a hamster wheel.
2. Quality
Quality is one of those golden elements that every business would like stamped upon it.
In my opinion when you consistently bring quality to the table you get repeat business. Trying to develop repeat business can be a challenge but is not impossible. A business with a track record of consistency and
quality has a high percentage of customers who re-order and a higher
percentage of referral customers.
Happy, contented customers tend to
tell their friends and families about businesses they've had success
with or products they like.
Be consistent with what works and
offer the highest quality possible in goods and services and you'll
stand a good chance of business success.
Concord Carpenter's Weekly Photo
Here at ACC we've been seeing alot of these spiders. It's called a black-and-yellow argiope spider. (Argiope aurantia)
Even for spiders this lady is quite attractive and one of our more
conspicuous species of orb weaving spiders. Orb web means it spins a web like a
circle. The species name "aurantia" comes from medieval Latin "aurantium" meaning
"orange (the fruit)".
Other commonly used names for this spider are golden
orb-weaver, yellow garden orb-weaver and the writing spider.
In case you were wondering all members of the Argiope spider family are considered harmless to humans.
September 20th is National Tradesman Day
Right now the construction industry is the facing a shortage of skilled laborers. High-schools have nearly eliminated trades education from their curriculum and only 6% of high school students consider a career in the trades
The expectation that EVERYONE in each subsequent future generation should go to college is just silly. Equally as silly is the idea that all laborers or blue collar workers are not intelligent or successful. Really? READ THIS!

A GOOD Story!
Story of the Two Wolves:
One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said:
"My son, the battle is between two wolves inside us all. One wolf is
evil, filled with anger, envy, greed, guilt, jealousy, lies, and pride.
The other wolf is good, filled with peace, love, humility, kindness,
joy, generosity and compassion."
The boy thought about the story and then asked his grandfather: "Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee answered, simply, "The one you feed."
