June 17, 2010 - Meeting Notes

Ron Mecham (ronald.mecham@trulymail.net) from Truly Nolan Pest Control (801 466-3400) was our featured member this week. It is a little creepy to talk about bugs and rodent problem but Ron does it with great gusto and enthusiasm. He explained about their four season approach to pest control. Ron's tag line is "If you don't want to live a bug's life, call Truly Nolen".

Summer - Increased insect populations eat voraciously during the summer. Why do we see more of them in the summer? Because insects can move faster during the summer, they are less afraid of predators and more likely to be seen. It's the right time to treat the landscape and harborage areas where insects live. Truly Nolen meets "speed with speed" by using fast-acting products during the summer. 





One of the biggest concerns was the safety of the products that they use since two small children died earlier this spring when a pest control operator from another company misapplied a chemical. Ron assured the group that Truly Nolen doesn't even use the chemical in question, in fact, their first concern is for the safety of the client.

Several of us in the group have used Truly Nolen and find them to be knowledgeable and professional, explaining what they are going to do and then doing it. They also make follow up visits if you are not 100% satisfied.

Mark (Charlie) Fuller from C and M Doors, Inc. (801 654-3950) or (candmdoor@yahoo.com) was the featured business of the week.  Mark brought several sample of the types of things that they offer to perspective clients from simple interior doors, classic exterior doors (customer carved) to garage doors. He also talked about the door hardware (locks, handle sets, and hinges) , bathroom hardware (towel bars, soap holders, and tp holders) and modular closet organizers.

Think of Mark when you hear:
   1. People who are talking about finishing their basement (doors, bathroom hardware and molding,
   2, People who are talking about changing their front door. 
   3. People who have a drafty house (air coming in around the door seal).
   4. People who are remodeling their house or are updating cabinet hardware.
   5. Property managers

Louise High from RBS WorldPay (merchant services or credit card processing)  was our featured member this week. Louise explained to the group that her philosophy is to help perspective client truly understand what the real cost for processing a credit card is - full disclosure. She also sent some time painting a good picture of some of the reasons that most merchants have a disdain for credit card processors and some of the scams that are being run in the business community. As a "direct processor" RBS WorldPay has fewer parties in the transaction and thus is very competitive in rates and Luise will not encourage a potential client to switch if it is not a win for the prospective client. Louise can be reached at  801 623-8838 or by email at: l.high@comcast.net.
