Minuteman Press Franchise in Gastonia, NC Has Grand Opening for New Father-Son Team Tony & David Marder

Minuteman Press International Inc

Tony and David Marder are the new owners of the Minuteman Press franchise in Gastonia, NC. In January of 2023, Tony and David purchased Minuteman Press in Gastonia from retiring owners Pam and Bill Joles, who owned the business for nearly 32 years since July of 1991. On Thursday, May 25, 2023, Tony and David held their official Grand Opening at their shop located at 495 East Long Avenue in Gastonia. The event was sponsored by the Gaston Business Association and had a fiesta theme that included margaritas, festive appetizers, a food truck, and a mariachi band. There were also plenty of raffles as well as a ribbon-cutting ceremony that served as a celebration of Tony and David’s new venture while Pam and Bill were also in attendance to help pass the torch. In the below interview, Tony shares how he and David originally came into contact with Pam and Bill, and how that relationship grew to the point of purchasing the business. Tony also shares how he’s been building his business since the purchase and why print is so vital today. You purchased the business after working in the shop for a couple of years. What were your roles/experiences as employees and what drove you to buy the business? Tony Marder: “Interestingly, even before working in the shop, Pam and Bill Joles were previous coaching clients. We met via our local BNI and Chamber memberships. At the time, I focused my business coaching with family-owned businesses and Pam and Bill engaged me to assist. I noticed how they were avid readers and spent focused time on goal-setting and systemization. Just before and during the pandemic closures, I asked if they needed someone very part time for deliveries or light finishing work to fill some of my open schedule. At some point in early 2021, I asked Bill ‘how he intended to land this thing’ and he said, “Why? You want to buy a business?” My answer was, “Absolutely not!” But an hour later I mentioned that I felt this may be a good fit for me and my son David, whom I know to be very adept and resourceful with machines and computers and technology in general. David joined the team as print production specialist in May of 2021 specifically to learn the finishing work. Having a bit of a graphics background didn’t hurt either and he quickly added pre-print typesetting and other aspects of pre-print work to his overview. Knowing this was a good fit and having almost two years of on-the-Job experience with Pam and Bill made it a much easier decision for us to move forward.” What has the support from Minuteman Press International been like for you? Tony Marder: “Having experience with franchise teams, I expected the support system to be there. I was especially impressed with the FLEX software and the strength of the training and process protocols. The local team made the transition easy and the Home Office training team is concise and thorough. Every call or need is quickly handled and everyone jumps in to help with urgency as needed.” How do you describe your business and capabilities to potential clients? Tony Marder: “We can produce anything that can be printed or find someone in our organization that can; we will produce and deliver quickly high quality work that helps them run or grow their business or organization.” What are the high-demand products and key growth areas? Tony Marder: “Our most requested items are business cards, forms, labels, stickers, letterhead and envelopes, booklets, manuals, newsletters and mailings. We would like to feature more mailings, interior signage, posters, decals and graphic design.” What are some of the key ways you’ve grown your business since taking over in January of 2023? Tony Marder: “Relationship marketing via phone and face to face direct marketing to existing and past clients, as well as SEO/SEM Marketing, active membership in the local chamber and Rotary. Planning now for future postcard mailings featuring postcard mailing as well as special promotions.” How would you best describe your community? Tony Marder: “We have a small but dedicated and loyal community. We are a volunteer and philanthropic community of diverse folks raising families and enjoying our corner of the world. We have a lot of natural resources that draws a wide range of individuals to the area spanning entrepreneurs, professionals, service-related businesses and manufacturers. We enjoy the closeness of the Charlotte, NC Metro area without the cumbersome things that make larger cities less attractive. Around here we say that ‘we don’t tell anybody about it, but if they find it on their own then it’s perfectly okay with us.’” Why do you think printing remains so vital to businesses today? Tony Marder: “Print is everywhere. I can’t go anywhere without seeing print in action. Every business or organization uses print at some level; either to run or grow their business. I feel email and social media marketing has its place but lacks a personal touch or relationship that could be developed. Print solidifies other marketing sources and cements brand recognition. People read, so giving them something to read is the best way to keep them engaged.” What are the biggest rewards of owning your business? Tony Marder: “This is a cashflow business with a lot of upside potential. Cash is certainly king when it comes to owning your business and this one is no different. Personally, I’m in it to help my son secure a future and continue to provide inspiration for the team. I’d like to see us increase what we can give back to our community and find more ways to engage the public.” What advice would you give to other business owners right now? Tony Marder: “Attract and hire people smarter than you, then get out of their way and give them room to shine. Find a mentor who has documented experience with the legal, financial and accounting arenas and do not resist being pushed closer to the fire. Get in there and get it done.” For more information about Minuteman Press in Gastonia, NC, visit https://minuteman.com/us/locations/nc/gastonia/ Learn more about #1 rated Minuteman Press franchise opportunities at https://minutemanpressfranchise.com Contact Details Minuteman Press International Chris Biscuiti +1 631-249-1370 cbiscuiti@mpihq.com Company Website https://minutemanpressfranchise.com

Antitrust Regulations: FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE) Shows Business Owners How To Stay Ahead Of Impending Law Changes

Benzinga

By Jad Malaeb, Benzinga In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, staying informed about regulatory changes is crucial for organizations. FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE), a leading market intelligence platform, offers comprehensive solutions that keep business owners up to date on all regulations that could impact their operations. Rachel Kirkland, an expert in antitrust laws and their effect on the economic environment, has written about the subject on the FiscalNote blog. In her article, Kirkland delves into the basics of antitrust regulations and their potential impact on organizations, emphasizing the importance of remaining knowledgeable about these laws and how they evolve. Antitrust laws aim to safeguard the free market, promote consumer benefits and prevent larger companies from abusing their power to eliminate competition from smaller entities. The foundation of antitrust policy lies in four milestone acts, three of which have existed for over a century. The Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890 prohibits monopolies and establishes free competition. The Clayton Antitrust Act of 1914 defines unethical business practices, while the Federal Trade Commission Act of 1914 established the Federal Trade Commission as a key enforcer of antitrust policy. The Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 requires all parties to report large transactions to government bodies for review. While the pressure on big tech companies to avoid anti-competitive practices has grown, the adoption of new antitrust legislation remains uncertain. Keith N. Hylton, a professor of law at Boston University, highlights the challenges in writing industry-specific antitrust laws without affecting other sectors. Several proposed bills aimed at regulating Big Tech, such as the American Innovation and Choice Online Act and the Open App Markets Act, have not yet reached a full vote due to differing opinions and lobbying efforts. The enforcement of antitrust laws has evolved with policy shifts and changes in recent times. Economic stress and the impact of the pandemic have prompted policymakers to reconsider the enforcement of antitrust regulations to enhance the resilience of the American economy. The Biden administration has taken a more aggressive approach, issuing an executive order to address abuses of power and involving multiple government agencies in regulatory roles beyond the DOJ and FTC. Government affairs professionals must understand antitrust policies and compliance, as the current administration emphasizes competition in every industry to improve Americans' lives. Antitrust goes beyond mergers, acquisitions and price points; it also encompasses issues such as fair wages and avoiding policies that disproportionately affect marginalized communities when competition is stifled. Compliance with antitrust laws is crucial, and organizations should invest in training their employees to ensure they understand acceptable corporate practices. Staying informed about the ever-changing landscape of antitrust regulations is essential for organizations. FiscalNote provides a comprehensive solution that automatically alerts government affairs professionals to any changes in existing or upcoming policies and regulations. This platform connects professionals with the right stakeholders to protect their organization's interests and ensure compliance. Antitrust regulations continue to be a significant concern in government bodies, as recent developments such as Nvidia's soaring earnings and concerns about monopolization in the computer microchip industry have highlighted. Navigating the complexities of antitrust laws requires businesses to remain proactive and informed. FiscalNote offers a reliable resource to help organizations stay up to date with evolving regulations and ensure compliance. Click here to learn more.

Morey Creative Studios Rebrands as Hypha Development, Unveils Expanded HubSpot Services

Hypha Development

In response to evolving industry trends and societal shifts, Morey Creative Studios, a leading HubSpot Partner Agency, is thrilled to announce its strategic rebranding to Hypha Development. Today’s transformation includes the addition of three innovative service offerings aimed at reshaping the company’s trajectory for the coming decade and beyond. “Over the past couple of years, we’ve seen three distinct trends begin to reshape the landscape around us: the increasing importance of alignment across a company’s tech stack, greater awareness around non-financial metrics as a measure of corporate success, and the rise and improved utility of artificial intelligence (AI),” said Jed Morey, Founder and CEO of Morey Creative Studios, now known as Hypha Development. “As a company guided by its ‘Grow For Good™’ motto, the changes we are announcing today—including three key new offerings—reflect our view that these trends are going to reshape the business world as we know it over the next decade and beyond,” he added. “They also position us to play a fundamental role in helping our clients to survive and thrive in this emerging environment.” Integrations & Implementations Stemming from its close partnership with HubSpot, Hypha Development is capitalizing on the platform‘s move toward the enterprise sector, creating the opportunity for the agency to increase its responsibility, handling everything from client services to implementations and integrations. Having developed an in-house integrations and implementation service, Hypha is now able to manage most HubSpot-related projects independently. “For the past couple of years, we’ve seen more and more companies struggle to extract maximum value from their tech stacks,” explained Jon Sasala, President of Hypha Development. “With an ever-expanding suite of services available both across the HubSpot ecosystem and beyond, we’re delighted to be able to offer the ability to seamlessly connect existing disparate systems, alongside the expertise to offer recommendations on current and future setups for our clients.” Social Impact Reporting Hypha Development recognizes the rising demand for ESG metrics, impact investing, and conscious capitalism, both from businesses and consumers. With deep-rooted expertise in content and narrative crafting, Hypha is launching a social impact reporting service to help clients tell their impact stories, a strategy it sees as the next evolution in content marketing. To support that effort, this week the company released its inaugural social impact report, which examines ways in which it is trying to make a difference in the world, better support its team members, and help other mission-driven organizations succeed. AI & The Future of Marketing The emergence of generative AI tools has reshaped user interaction with technology. Hypha is leaning into this trend by developing a product offering centered around AI for a seamless website experience. Hypha’s vision is to harness closed-loop AI systems that can answer user questions based on specialized, client-specific information produced by its in-house content experts. “We’re building toward a world where consumers expect to interact as fluidly with a website as they would with a customer service or sales rep,” continued Sasala. “While the shifts in human interaction with technology will redefine much of our industry, the need to feed those AI models with informative, expert content represents a massive opportunity for us to leverage our established content marketing expertise in an entirely new way.” Rebranding Announcement Rebranding as Hypha Development represents a natural transition for the organization, which previously changed its name to Morey Creative Studios in 2018. The new corporate identity, combined with its mission to effectuate positive change, will enable the company to help clients succeed in an ever-evolving digital landscape and strategically embrace new technologies. This includes a refreshed brand name, site, and messaging—all unveiled today. The Hypha Development team is looking forward to entering this exciting new chapter, continuing to push boundaries and exceed client expectations. Hypha Development is a purpose-driven, New York-based HubSpot Partner Agency specializing in engineering custom solutions to help B2B organizations big and small generate more leads, increase revenue, and achieve sustainable growth.

Don’t Get Scammed: Tips for Avoiding Fraud After a Natural Disaster

YourUpdateTV

Click to view video accompanying this release: https://youtu.be/YCGvYBaBZes With hurricane and wildfire seasons on the horizon in many parts of the country, damage and loss to homes from these natural disasters can be unavoidable. The National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) is warning those living in areas that could suffer from a natural catastrophe to not only be prepared for the disaster, but to be on guard for fraudulent contractors and vendors who take advantage of victims in the aftermath. Oftentimes, dishonest contractors target neighborhoods affected by disasters and make unsolicited stops at residential properties. They will take homeowners’ money, often overcharge them, and do shoddy or no work at all, promising that the insurance company will pay for it all. Insurance fraud related to natural disasters costs billions of dollars every year, which results in higher premiums for policyholders. In some cases, individual homeowners are on the hook for up to tens of thousands of dollars they may not be able to recover. On Tuesday, May 23rd, NICB President & CEO David J. Glawe conducted a nationwide media tour with TV stations across the country to discuss how to avoid home repair fraud after a natural disaster and many other consumer-friendly topics, as part of the organization’s third annual Contractor Fraud Awareness Week. During the media tour interviews, Glawe discussed: The steps homeowners can and should take prior to a natural disaster and how preparation can help reduce chances of becoming a victim of fraud; The kind of fraud that takes place following disasters while victims are trying to put their homes and lives back together; The best practices for disaster victims when hiring contractors or vendors and tips for avoiding dishonest contractors; The most common methods fraudulent contractors try to scam disaster victims; and The resources available to help homeowners and other disaster victims dishonest contractors or report fraud when they encounter it.
