Sites in Google Apps for Business Team Collaboration
Posted on 18. Nov, 2009 by Tracy Sigler in Small Business Tools
If I sound mellow in this one it’s because A) I had a huge, and awesome, dinner at Sunny Point Cafe in west Asheville, and B) it’s a little past my bed time. This video is almost 10 minutes but if you’re interested in using Google Apps in your small business I think you’ll find it worth your time. If you don’t, check your warranty.

Conservation Pros – Small Business Brief #8
Posted on 12. Nov, 2009 by Tracy Sigler in Small Business Briefs
Yesterday I met with Carl Donovan of Conservation Pros. They are a building performance contractor specializing in retrofitting solutions to existing buildings and homes. From their site:
Your home is wasting tons of your money. The US Department of Energy has proven that the average American household wastes as much as 50% of its energy dollars through duct leaks, building envelope leaks, outdated systems and deferred maintenance.
That’s more than just wasted money, it’s also wasted energy. As we’re all aware, that energy is getting more and more scarce and is creating an enviromental dilemma that currently has no known solution.
We can help.
Contact them for everything from duct sealing to a complete green renovation.

Oh my butt was killing me by the end of this ride! I had a mountain biking mishap a month ago, broken ribs, and this was the first long ride on the road bike since then. Oof!
Anyhow, this ride started at the office of Steve Miller D.D.S. Steve is a dentist in Asheville with an office on Chestnut Street. North side crew in da house! Steve is also a member of the Asheville Bicycle Racing Club.

Melon Bicycles – Small Business Brief #6
Posted on 09. Nov, 2009 by Tracy Sigler in Small Business Briefs
Last week I spent some time with Loran and Andrew at Melon Bicycles in Asheville. I guess it’s more accurate to say Arden because they are located in the Small Business Incubator there. I know some urban commuters like folding bikes because they are easier to bring into the office than a full size bike. I used to work in an office building in the DC metro and I commuted by bike almost every day. The building owners didn’t want bicycles on the elevator because they were afraid they would tear up the swanky paneling. Not that it stopped me.
I would think people with boats, RVs, anyone traveling to things like festivals or motorsports events would find a folding bike more convenient than some type of scooter.
Anybody out there own or want a folding bike? I’m curious how you plan to use it.
Check out Melon Bicycles’ site for more info about their Slice line of folding bikes.
