“It’s the thought that counts” is something you often hear when it comes to gifting. Well, that isn’t true if the gift is forgettable. Then, it’s just a waste of money and a lost opportunity. That’s why I use Deby Lexow and LOCLE Box. They know the power of meaningful connections—and there’s no better way to show appreciation to our clients, colleagues, and team than with a unique, thoughtfully curated gift. That’s why LOCLE Box is my go-to gifting service! By the way, LOCLE Box isn’t just for Ohioans—I send gifts to people across the country. I love that my clients get to see really cool small batch, locally made products that represent THIS area. From one-of-a-kind gifts to custom creations, LOCLE Box offers everything you need to make sure it’s not just the “thought that counts” but that the gift is also memorable. Don’t wait! You can plan your order ahead and choose when you want it shipped—talk about stress-free holiday gifting! If you procrastinate – you run the risk of having to do all the shopping yourself and sending something "normal". Once their calendar fills up – you’ll be out of luck. Head over to www.loclebox.com to get started today. #HolidayGifting #ClientAppreciation #SmallBusiness #ShopLocal #LOCLEBox 

Wow! Sometimes you need to sit back & take it all in. After a business catch up / breakfast date with my husband it got me thinking about how far we have come. I've been overwhelmed by the positive feedback we've received about Gift Me Up in the recent weeks. From remarks like: "This is really interesting" "We've been looking for something just like this" "We really like your product" "Exciting initiative" The response has been truly heartening. In fact, we have even had suggestions to take our gift boxes on Dragons' Den! It's comments like these that reaffirm my belief in what we're doing. Sure, not every pitch receives an immediate response, but when we consistently hear such encouraging feedback, it's impossible not to feel that we're on the right track. It's moments like these that fuel my passion and commitment to delivering something truly special with Gift Me Up. #corporategifts #giftsforcustomers #giftsforemployees #giftsforevents #giftprogrammes

I attended the Growth With Renny Conference two days ago and boy it was value packed! Every speaker definitely delivered over 100%. According to Mrs Bisi Soji-Oyawoye, how you start a thing isn’t as important as how it ends. Her session was so profound, easy to grasp and I was too inspired by her. Guess what I did right during her session? Followed her on Ig and LinkedIn because I want to keep seeing. What you see is what you become yes? There you have it. Happy new month people. #productmanagers

We bid farewell to one of our long-time outstanding team members, Brenda Phillips, as she retires after 34 years with our company. Before she moves into retirement we took time out to learn a little about her and who has positively impacted her professional and personal life. 1. What would be your death row meal? There are so many things I love. Probably a nice juicy steak, topped with mushrooms and onions, sauteed in butter, loaded baked potato and salad w/ ranch dressing. For dessert, a sliver of carrot cake and a sliver of chocolate cake. 2. What could you make a Ted Talk about with little time to prepare? Game shows. I love them. Ask me the host or the game rules or even some of the contestants, and I could talk forever. Jeopardy is my fave. 3. If you could get an answer to a mystery (i.e., Bermuda Triangle, Amelia Earheart ), what would it be? Where is my husband Clark’s good watch? It disappeared when we moved, and he thinks I trashed it. I promise I didn’t. 4. Who has had the most positive impact on your life? There have been so many. My parents probably first and foremost. They were young parents, with six kids, who were strict, but still loving. We always had what we needed, but never too much. My dad was in the military and my mom maintained our household. We had trials and tragedies but were always able to move forward with love and gratitude. Secondly, I would have to say Rick, David, and Steve here at Hoidale. These guys cleared the path for this journey I’ve been on for the last 34 years. They are three very different personalities, each with fantastic skillsets. And lastly, I can’t leave Clark out. He’s the most patient man alive to have put up with me for all these years. He has insights and goals and dreams and ideas, and there’s nobody he would rather share them with than me. (Or Sandra Bullock.) Are you ready to grow with us?

June marks 8 months since we landed our first client at Narrative Social and here’s some things I’ve learnt: - Who you own a business with is SO important and makes or breaks a company. Thank you Emily Smith for being the best 🫶🏼 - You meet some amazing people when you really put yourself out there. - It’s impossible to offer every possible service at the start, niche down and offer what you’re best at. - Making mistakes is how you grow and I’m so grateful for any mistakes we’ve made so far. - Realising you’re the expert in what you do & clients are trusting you for a reason. (Imposter syndrome sometimes comes in hot😂) - Have big goals to work towards but lay down the foundations with small goals to help get you there. - Celebrating your wins (big or small) is so important. - Never undersell yourself for the sake of gaining a client Heres to the next 8 years 🥂

A big thank you to all our clients, friends, and supporters of Space Craft Joinery for making last night's 'Around the Kitchen Counter' event such a success! The energy in the room was fantastic, with familiar and new faces—it was a real treat meeting clients in person who I’d only spoken to over the phone or via email. The team got a real buzz out of it, too! Special shoutout to Amy Springhall, our amazing MC, who brought energy and laughs throughout the night. Amy was the inspiration behind the event, and we’re so grateful she agreed to collaborate with us to make it happen. Our panelists—Kellie, Sally, and Tamsin—shared some valuable insights: - Sally Ness reminded us that turning points often only make sense in hindsight, and her mantra, “Love life and life will love you back,” resonated with everyone. - Tamsin Simounds spoke about leaving radiography to pursue coaching and public speaking, and emphasized that facing our fears is where real growth happens. - Kellie Campbell-Illingworth reflected on winning the Young Gun Award in NYC, a turning point which has opened many doors for her. She encouraged us to stay true to ourselves and own our accomplishments. A huge thank you to Claudia and Peter from Alluca, who served their 2013 Taking Flight Sparkling Rosé—a small batch wine that was a real hit. Peter kept everyone’s glasses topped up all night and this no doubt helped to keep the conversation flowing! Before wrapping up, I shared some exciting news: Over 50% of our best clients come from referrals. To build on that, we’ll be sending out a survey to ask what kind of incentive would encourage you to refer us more actively. Whether it’s a case of wine, a local restaurant voucher, or a weekend getaway at Ingoldby Road, we want your feedback! Finally, a huge shoutout to the team for their help getting this event off the ground, especially Karen, who was as emotionally invested as I was. We can breathe easy today and share a little high-five moment. 🖐️ #SpaceCraft #AroundTheKitchenCounter #ClientReferrals #CommunitySupport
