Lower Your Operationg Costs with PowerPort Power Pedestals

Leave a comment

FLEXIBILITY IS A SNAP

Lower your operating costs while raising your customer service levels . Our PowerSnap technology is an industry exclusive that allows you to change out receptacles and breakers just by snapping a panel in and out. It is as easy as removing four screws, pulling the panel out and setting in a new, or your existing, one back in after maintenance and reattaching. In just a matter of minutes, problem solved and repairs can take place safer in the shop if needed. No more replacing a pedestal, rewiring on the property or breaking the pedestal down for annual maintenance inspections like traditional pedestals. Most electrical parts are standard too and can be bought locally – no special size breakers, light bars, etc. that require special ordering .

See pricing and options here.  Many other configurations are available, call for a quote (954) 284-7447.

Evacuate The City

Evacuate The City plays Vans Warped Tour

Leave a comment

After winning a local band competition through months of online voting, Evacuate The City won an appearance on the Orlando leg of the tour.  They were only allowed enough time to perform 5 of their songs, but they made the most of it.  The crowd really got into it and they guys video taped the whole thing via GoPro cameras mounted on their instruments.  I can’t wait to see what they edit together.

Unfortunately, Laurie and I were unable to attend this concert, we would have stood out like two sore thumbs in that crowd, but we will be at the bands next appearance at Venue  578 on the 10th.

Follow my exploits as I progress through the Quick Start Challenge coaching program.  Lesson one completed tonight that addressed making a blog / posting an update.

Well, look at that….I accomplished the first action item.  Thanks for your excellent lesson, Dean Holland.

The easy one is over….the next couple of weeks will be a lot of fun.

Hangin’ at Strataglass

Leave a comment

Is this cool, or what?  As much as I love spending time with my friends at Strataglass, now I get to spend even more time with them and make a little money, to boot. I will be contracting for a short while to help out as they progress through their new transformation.  What transformation, you ask….read on.

Strataglass was recently acquired by Herculite Products, Inc (press release here: http://www.herculite.com/hubfs/Press_Release_Strataglass_5-8-15.pdf).  This move opens a new chapter in the already impressive Strataglass story as well as boost the Herculite Brand, a win-win in my book.

I am so lucky to spend time with the likes of Walter Johnson, III, Peter, Carla, Junior, Chad and the rest of the Strataglass crew (all great folks) and now I get to see more of an old acquaintance from my Rorys Marine / Scalise Marine days, Craig Zola.

I’ll still be providing excellent service to my Your Ship’s Store customers, I’m not replacing that role, just expanding my horizons to learn even more about Strataglass and Crystal Clear 20/20.

Don’t be surprised if you call and hear, “Good Morning, Strataglass.  This is Randy, how may I help you?”

Just for fun, Where Am I?

Where Am I
Never let it be said that Kerri and I do not follow directions.

I have been having a little fun on my social media pages:

and

with a little game I am calling “Where Am I?” where I post a photo and caption and wait for the right answer.  Some have been answered correctly, most not.  Try your luck, drop by any of the three above pages and render a guess.

Bee Clean Marine

Introducing Bee Clean Marine

Leave a comment

I have been operating a small ‘Green Certified” cleaners site for about two years now.  With Google’s recent mobile requirement (mobile ready sites will be a big ranking factor later this month), I moved the site to a new shopping cart.  Not only did the site move, I renamed it from Bee Clean Home to Bee Clean Marine and am in the process of adding a Marine Supplies line to it, Including the IMAR Yacht Detailing products and boat dock accessories.

One of the most exciting additions (for me, at least) is the naming of my mascots, the two bees in the header.  The nautical one was easy, Swab-Bee but I struggled with the home and office character.  Then it came to me, instead of Home-Bee, Homer-Bee, etc., it is my site, it should be Randy-Bee.  And so it is.  I will be incorporating the bees into my listings with personal advice under “Randy-Bee says” and “Swab-Bee says”.

The new site is a work in progress, there is a lot to add, but my goal is to make it an authoritative site, as well as an eCommerce site.  Not only will it have products for sale, but usage and proper care recommendations also.
