You’ve heard it many times… PPC practitioners face a growing problem with the lack of visibility and control into exactly where our spend is going.
There were at least three pieces of news sharing this theme in the last few weeks alone:
• Display targeting behaviour was widened (with ‘and’ becoming ‘or’ for the different targeting methods…)
• The Content Network targeting optout became misleadingly greyed out… (more on this below)
• The removal of ‘similar audiences’ was announced
But the theme itself is not news (I first wrote about it four years ago, and it wasn’t news then either…)
Before we look at the best response to it, let’s take a deeper look at the dynamics of what’s really happening here, and why.
First – as clear as the pattern is – is it really a problem?
We can certainly find PPCers who embrace the automation of bidding and targeting decisions…
But yes – it is a problem that we can’t sufficiently see or direct where our ad spend is going… and it’s not just that some PPC professionals tend to be control freaks.
(I can neither confirm nor deny that suggestion… )
Because the truth of ‘where our ad spend is going’ is also changing, and not for the better.
Some degree of low-quality ad inventory has always slipped (or been slipped…) into our campaigns – and this has increased over the years, for perfectly logical reasons.
As one PPC commentator asked rhetorically while railing against one of the many ‘unwanted expansions’ of Google Ads targeting this week, “is $65bn profit per quarter not enough for them?”
Totally understandable sentiments – but the answer to that question is no; it’s not enough…
Not because of greed – but because, as a public company, growth is essential for Google’s financial health.
It’s not enough for Alphabet to make billions; it needs to make more billions each year in order to justify (and increase) its share price.
On that basis, Google’s decision makers actually have a legal responsibility (fiduciary duty) to make every reasonable* effort to maintain and protect that growth (*NB one man’s reasonable is another man’s PMax…)
…and as it happens, Alphabet’s latest financial figures gave them no cause to celebrate.
(credit to Neil Andrew as the source of the comment quoted above. Well worth following for PPC updates and tips.)
And so, in this pursuit of growth, as Google rushes to accommodate ever more advertiser dollars, it needs in turn to increase the inventory it has to sell…
This is what lies behind the gradual expansion we’ve seen, from the core, high- value inventory that used to be sufficient for all parties concerned – into the lower-quality inventory we now struggle to identify and keep at bay.
This ‘extra’ inventory has shown up in various ways,
From content network as an add on (which is almost always best to remove, but which as mentioned above, Google has now made appear mandatory with a new greyed out opt-out box to tick…)
…to ‘Targeting Expansion’ in display campaigns
…to the removal of a simple method for excluding mobile app placements (“adsenseformobileapps.com” – a happy memory for those long in the game…)
…to the problem of clicks from countries that we aren’t targeting. It became much harder to identify these after the change to the way location data was presented in 2021.
With Performance Max campaigns, the option to target users ‘in or regularly in’ our selected locations was first added and then quickly hidden from the campaign setup process….
Speaking of which, the fact that this option changed from ‘in’ to ‘in or regularly in’ was yet another small opening of the door to that lower-quality inventory.
I could go on (and have done elsewhere, often enough…)
But it’s too easy to rant against these constant incursions. Far more productive to understand the bigger picture.
And on that – the best exposition I’ve seen is from Rand Fishkin, founder of Moz and Sparktoro. Watch his excellent explanation here of the depressing ‘Ad Slurry’ principle… How platforms monetise lower-quality inventory with increasing aggregation and obfuscation (not naming any names ).
To summarise (in case, understandably, you can’t bring yourself to click away from this page…), while ad inventory varies in its value – both to a given advertiser, and in general terms – ad platforms have an incentive to monetise as much of their inventory as possible. Advertisers have a converse incentive to pay only for the inventory that they deem profitable, and not a step beyond it.
Those platforms then use various methods (like those listed above…) to ‘blend’ that lower quality inventory with the higher-quality – such that it’s either hard or impossible to see – or at any rate, hard to avoid.
We don’t need to be conspiracy theorists to note this dynamic. It’s an entirely understandable – possibly inevitable – result of the way our incentives as advertisers and those of our ad platforms diverge.
1 Be aware of the issue – and how it manifests itself in different platforms and campaign types…
Some are far worse than others. Performance Max for example is notorious for its lack of detailed insights. In those rare moments when the curtain is pulled back – the view can be alarming.
Take this case, of a high-end travel advertiser, using Performance Max-for-Travel campaigns, with a hotel feed and the usual set of assets.
On checking the ‘Performance Max campaigns placement’ report (one that it’s well worth being aware of…)
No comment needed.
But this leads on to the next item, which is
2 Get to know the controls at our disposal – reduced as they may be – to combat low-quality impressions and clicks when you see (or suspect) them.
In the case above, account-level placement exclusions are the answer…
This method allows the blocking of whole categories of app.
The gaming categories would often be good candidates for that…
3 Keep an eye on your metrics – and a keen eye on what they really mean.
For example, low CPCs aren’t necessarily a good thing
and there are subtle ways in which ‘aggregated data’ can dilute the true picture.
Search partners traffic is a good example of this problem (but takes a bit of explaining…. Read tip #8 from my free guide, 10 advanced paid search tips)
4 Find and turn to a trusted partner to do this kind of advanced monitoring for you.
A one-off audit (the kind of thing I offer in one-to one sessions) may be what you need…
or if you’re looking to sharpen up your own PPC eyes, consider something like my paid course and membership Google Ads Level Up.


Are you tired of high energy bills during the hot summer months? Did you know that your HVAC system’s SEER rating could be the culprit? According to the U.S. Department of Energy, heating and cooling account for nearly half of the energy used in a typical home, with air conditioning alone accounting for 6% of all the electricity produced in the United States. That’s why understanding your HVAC system’s SEER rating is crucial for maximizing its energy efficiency and lowering your energy bills. In this beginner’s guide, we’ll break down everything you need to know about HVAC SEER ratings, from what they are to how to improve them. Let’s get started!
What is a SEER Rating?
A SEER Rating is a measure of the efficiency of a heating and cooling system. It stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, and it’s an index that shows how much energy your HVAC system uses over the course of a year. Specifically, it measures how much cooling a system can produce per unit of energy consumed over the course of a typical cooling season. In other words, the higher the SEER rating of a system, the more efficient it is at cooling your home while using less energy.
SEER ratings are calculated by dividing the total cooling output of an HVAC system by the total energy it consumes in a given season. This gives an average efficiency rating for the entire cooling season, rather than just a snapshot of efficiency at a single point in time. SEER ratings typically range from 13 to 25, with higher ratings indicating greater efficiency.
It’s important to note that SEER ratings only apply to air conditioning systems, not heating systems. For heating systems, a different rating system called the Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating is used to measure energy efficiency.
Why Does SEER Rating Matter?
SEER rating matters for a number of reasons, including:
- Lower Energy Bills: One of the most significant benefits of a high SEER rating is that it can lower your energy bills. Since higher SEER-rated systems are more energy-efficient, they use less energy to produce the same amount of cooling. This translates to lower monthly utility bills for homeowners and businesses.
- Environmental Impact: Lower energy consumption also means a lower carbon footprint. By choosing a high SEER-rated system, you can reduce your energy usage and help to reduce your impact on the environment.
- System Longevity: HVAC systems with higher SEER ratings often have more advanced technology and higher-quality components, which can lead to a longer system lifespan. This means less maintenance and replacement costs over time.
- Increased Comfort: Higher SEER-rated systems are often designed to provide more even cooling throughout a home or business, resulting in increased comfort levels.
- Improved Home Value: Upgrading to a high SEER-rated HVAC system can increase the resale value of your home. Potential buyers may be willing to pay more for a home with an energy-efficient HVAC system that will save them money in the long run.
What SEER Rating Should You Choose?
The SEER rating you choose will depend on several factors, including your budget, climate, and specific heating and cooling needs. In general, the higher the SEER rating, the more energy-efficient the system is. However, a higher SEER rating also means a higher upfront cost for the system.
When choosing an HVAC system, it’s important to consider your budget and how much you’re willing to spend upfront versus how much you could save on your energy bills over time. Additionally, consider your climate and how much you use your HVAC system. If you live in a mild climate or don’t use your HVAC system frequently, a lower SEER rating may be sufficient.
What is a Good SEER Rating?
Because the environment and the home will influence the SEER rating, it can be difficult to define what constitutes a good SEER rating.
For instance, someone who lives in the South would consider a SEER rating of 20 to be good, but someone who lives in the North might think a SEER rating of 15 is sufficient.
As of 2023, the Northern States will require a domestic air conditioner to have a minimum SEER rating of 14, while the Southern States will need a minimum SEER rating of 15. If a person currently owns an air conditioner, they won’t need to consider this; nevertheless, all future purchases must abide by this.
So an air conditioner with a good SEER rating will typically have a value of 14 or higher. These days, a central air conditioner’s SEER rating is typically 16, on average. However, there are models with higher energy efficiency, some of which can reach a rating of 23.
If you’re not sure what SEER rating to choose, consult with a professional HVAC service provider like Home Service Solutions. Our experienced technicians can evaluate your needs and recommend the right HVAC system with a SEER rating that fits your budget and energy efficiency needs.
Do Higher SEER-Rated Air Conditioner Units Cool Better?
Higher SEER air conditioners will generally cool more effectively, but the size of the home and the climate must also be taken into account.
However, there are two reasons why higher-rated SEER units will perform better at cooling, and these are as follows:
- Variable airflow (speed at which the air is blown)
- (Variable-speed compressor) with two stages
A lower SEER AC unit will feature a single-stage compressor rather than a 2-stage speed compressor. As a result of their going on and off in moderate weather, uneven cooling (hot and cold areas) are more common.
Additionally, because air conditioners must run continuously to remove humidity from the air, air conditioners with lower SEER ratings also experience higher humidity levels.
How Much More Efficient Is A Higher SEER Rating?
Higher SEER air conditioners are significantly more efficient than those with lower SEER ratings. The SEER rating with the lowest efficiency level is 8 and the one with the highest efficiency level is 22, which is 64%.
The efficiency boost between a high-end HVAC system and a middle-of-the-road one is about 40%.
Will The SEER Rating Be Affected By The Size Of My Home?
The SEER rating of a house depends on its square footage (living area). 20 BTUs are typically required per square foot of living area for air conditioners. Tonnage, which is how central air conditioners are rated for cooling, must be converted from BTUs.
A dwelling space will require 0.0016 tons of cooling per square foot since 1 ton is equal to 12,000 BTUs. This indicates that a cooling HVAC system for 600 square feet has to be 1 ton, whereas a system for 3,600 square feet needs to be 6 ton.
Even if an air conditioner has a high SEER rating, the living area won’t be properly cooled if it doesn’t follow this equation.
Does A Higher SEER Have More Benefits?
There are two key advantages to take into account while choosing an AC unit, and they are as follows:
- improved cooling
- lower energy costs as a result of the efficiency
Higher SEER air conditioners will give superior cooling since, as I’ve already mentioned, they will have a 2-stage speed compressor. Additionally, because they are more efficient, they won’t consume as much electricity, which will reduce an energy bill.
How to Improve Your HVAC System’s SEER Rating
If you already have an HVAC system and want to improve its SEER rating, there are several steps you can take. These include:
- Regular Maintenance: Regular maintenance is key to keeping your HVAC system running efficiently and improving its SEER rating. Make sure to schedule regular tune-ups and filter replacements with a professional HVAC service provider like Home Service Solutions. A dirty filter or clogged air ducts can reduce your system’s efficiency and increase your energy bills.
- Upgrading Your Thermostat: Upgrading to a programmable or smart thermostat can help you better control your HVAC system’s energy usage and improve its efficiency. With a programmable thermostat, you can set different temperatures for different times of the day, allowing you to reduce your energy usage when you’re not at home or during the night.
- Improving Your Insulation: Proper insulation can help keep your home or business cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, reducing the workload on your HVAC system and improving its efficiency. Check your insulation levels and consider adding insulation to areas that may be lacking.
- Sealing Air Leaks: Air leaks around windows, doors, and ducts can cause your HVAC system to work harder to maintain a comfortable temperature, reducing its efficiency. Sealing air leaks with caulking or weatherstripping can help reduce your energy bills and improve your system’s SEER rating.
- Upgrading Your HVAC System: If your HVAC system is old or inefficient, upgrading to a newer, more energy-efficient system can help improve its SEER rating and save you money on your energy bills over time. Today’s HVAC systems are much more energy-efficient than those from just a few years ago, and upgrading can lead to significant energy savings.
How Do Costs Relate to a SEER Rating?
The price of an AC unit will depend on its SEER rating. A lower SEER rating air conditioner will often be less expensive than one with a higher rating. However, it should be remembered that an air conditioner with a higher SEER rating will use up to 40% less energy, which will result in lower monthly energy costs. As a result, air conditioners with higher SEER ratings may ultimately (and to a certain extent) pay for themselves.
SEER rating and cost are closely related when it comes to HVAC systems. Generally speaking, higher SEER-rated systems will cost more upfront than lower-rated systems, but they will save you money on energy bills in the long run. Here are some key points to consider:
- Higher SEER Ratings Cost More: HVAC systems with higher SEER ratings typically cost more than those with lower ratings. This is because higher-rated systems use more advanced technology and often have higher-quality components.
- Lower Energy Bills: While higher SEER-rated systems have a higher upfront cost, they can save you money in the long run by using less energy and reducing your energy bills. Over time, the savings on energy bills can help offset the higher initial cost.
- Return on Investment (ROI): The return on investment for upgrading to a higher SEER-rated HVAC system will depend on a variety of factors, including the cost of electricity in your area, how often you use your HVAC system, and the cost of the new system. It’s important to consider these factors when deciding whether upgrading to a higher SEER-rated system is worth the investment.
- Tax Credits and Rebates: In some cases, upgrading to a higher SEER-rated HVAC system may qualify you for tax credits or rebates from your utility company. These incentives can help offset the cost of the new system and make upgrading more affordable.
What Savings Can Be Expected From a Higher SEER Rating?
Even if the rating of the units only goes up by one, the savings from having a higher SEER rating can be significant.
The new regulations that the DOE (U.S. Department of Energy) will put into place in 2023 would result in a total reduction in energy expenses for American residences with air conditioner units of between $2.5 billion and $12.2 billion between 2023 and 2052.
Over the following ten to twenty years, the typical homeowner can anticipate saving thousands of dollars.
Understanding SEER ratings is essential when choosing an HVAC system for your home or business. A higher SEER rating generally means better energy efficiency and lower energy bills over time. However, a higher SEER rating can also mean a higher upfront cost. It’s important to consider your budget.

The subscription ecommerce market is big. Globally, it’s grown by 100% year-on-year for the past 5 years and is projected to reach $473 billion by 2025 in the US, with the UK expected to grow another 72% by 2022. And that was all pre-Covid, this past year has accelerated the trend even further. The key to a successful subscription business is winning at retention. This post will cover the basics you need to have a robust retention strategy for subscription ecommerce.
Not every customer will keep up with their subscription. It’s unrealistic to expect 100% of them to stay subscribed. But there are things you can do to help retain customers or entice them back if they do leave. You can also leverage their advocacy to keep things growing.
To help consider the whole subscription user journey, at every level, we work with a different kind of acquisition funnel.
This acquisition funnel goes one step further than the classic awareness, consideration, conversion funnel that you may have seen before. In this model, we consider how to retain customers once their subscription is active and limit the churn rate. We also think about their potential lifetime value and how referrals can help to bring more customers into the fold.
You may have heard about growth hacking. This term refers to a series of marketing tactics that are focused on not just sustaining your business, but growing it.
In the subscription ecommerce world, you need to think differently to a traditional retail model . For example, when developing a performance media strategy, you’ll plan different messages, content and offers for different people, depending on where they’re at in their journey with you, e.g. are they prospects, subscribers, potentially about to drop off or actually big advocates?
Often the challenge isn’t in the acquisition of new customers through your normal conversion-driven campaigns, but actually holding on to them. When you keep hold of them successfully, they’re likely to advocate for you. And when they do this, you’ll start to generate more customers on a referral basis. Consistency of this method will allow you to keep growing.
Prevention is always better than a cure. Especially when it comes to lapsed customers. You need to ensure you’re providing an exceptional experience and giving the minimal amount of reasons to unsubscribe.
Your churn rate is a critically important metric for companies whose customers pay on a recurring basis. Regardless of your monthly revenue, if your typical customer doesn’t stick around long enough for you to at least recoup your average customer acquisition cost (CAC), you’re in trouble.
You need to give them a reason to stay and a reason to advocate for you. This is the quickest path to growth. We’ve listed a few ways to build loyalty with your customers and encourage them to advocate for you.
We hope that this post around retention strategy for subscription ecommerce has helped with ideas of how you can strengthen your business and increase profitability. If you have any questions, please get in touch.

The past speaks for itself. Techframe was born in March 2000, having started its activities in January 2001, with the objective of developing information systems, for niche markets with high growth potential, using methodologies and revolutionary practices to date, and which are still at the forefront of technology. We were the first company in Portugal to advocate the use of SQL databases to support Executive Information Systems and one of the first to provide an internal email system for large companies, with feedback information on emails sent. For almost 20 years, we have added world class products to our portfolio, striving for innovation and disruption.
The present is comfortable. After working in several business areas, always with great success, and at the time we were preparing for internationalization, we concentrated all our efforts on a system, and data services, aimed at the Intellectual Property sector, which supported the company's growth, the entry of a venture capital company (Portugal Ventures) in the shareholder structure and its internationalization to three continents. More recently, and after the recovery of the dispersed social capital, Techframe diversified its operations in three major sectors, and currently has facilities in three locations and strategic partnerships, enabling its direct presence in three continents.
The future is brilliant. The consolidation and development effort of the last few years has enabled the diversification of sectors of activity, and the alignment of a set of products with release dates distributed over the next three years, reinforced with the acceptance of the application, of almost one million euros to Portugal 2020, for a Research and Development project, and with the establishment of a partnership with a Spanish associate, which will expand the company's internationalization and sustained growth. At the same time, the increase in the investment in internal research, enabled the acquisition of know-how and the strengthening of the team in the area of the identification of graphic and textual patterns for industrial property systems, in the area of modeling and animation for the entertainment industry, in the area of artificial intelligence for the information systems industry and in the area of virtual and augmented reality for the digital games industry.

Arsenal Player With Highest Wages
Mesut Ozil is currently the highest paid player at Arsenal. The German signed a contract extension in January 2018 worth £350,000 per week, set to last till June 2021.
At the time, the club was under a lot of pressure due to both Ozil and Alexis Sanchez’s uncertain future. Eventually, Wenger decided to swap out the latter for Henrikh Mkhitaryan and made Ozil one of the club’s, the Premier League’s and even the world’s highest paid players.
The second highest paid player at Arsenal is Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who arrived at the club over a year back from Borussia Dortmund on a record fee of £56m. The stark contrast between the Gabon international and Ozil’s wages will give you an understanding on how far Arsenal are overpaying the former Real Madrid player.
Arsenal Players On Expiring Contracts 2018/19
|Name & Position||Date of Birth (Age)||End of contract||Contract option|
|Danny Welbeck||Nov 26, 1990 (28)||30.06.2019||–|
|Denis Suárez||Jan 6, 1994 (25)||30.06.2019||Option to buy|
|Nacho Monreal||Feb 26, 1986 (32)||30.06.2019||–|
|Carl Jenkinson||Feb 8, 1992 (27)||30.06.2019||–|
|Stephan Lichtsteiner||Jan 16, 1984 (35)||30.06.2019||–|
Danny Welbeck‘s spell has been riddled with injuries as the 27-year-old spends his final year of his contract with Arsenal on the sidelines, nursing a hit on his ankle. He has mostly operated as a secondary striker, since his arrival from Manchester United in 2014.
It is unclear at this point whether Arsenal will re-sign the 42-time England international to a new deal.
Denis Suarez arrived on a 6-month loan spell from Barcelona in January 2019. While the Gunners did not have to provide a guarantee of purchase in the upcoming summer, they are obligated to pay around £20m to acquire the Spaniard’s services on a permanent basis.
Nacho Monreal arrived at the Emirates for £9m in 2013 and since has eclipsed into one of the best full-backs in the Premier League. Currently 32, Monreal still remains a key figure in Arsenal’s defensive lineup under Unai Emery. With the side clamouring to hold off the weakest of opponents, it is almost mandatory for the club to renew the Spaniard’s contract for longer.
“It would be wise to keep hold of the Englishman”
Carl Jenkinson continues to be a third choice full-back for Arsenal with very rare appearances in excusable domestic cup games. With Stephan Lichtsteiner’s future uncertain and Hector Bellerin not available till September 2018, it would be wise to keep hold of the Englishman.
Stephan Lichtsteiner arrived from Juventus on a free last summer. He is the second oldest player in the Arsenal ranks behind, Petr Cech (36) and was supposed to be a one-year rental.
However, with Bellerin out of action till the next campaign and given Lichtsteiner’s unimaginable engine even at this age, the former Swiss international should definitely be recalled for another season.
Arsenal On-Loan Players’ Contracts 2018/19

|Matt Macey||24||Plymouth Argyle||30.06.2019||31.05.2019|
|Krystian Bielik||21||Charlton Athletic||30.06.2020||31.05.2019|
|Takuma Asano||24||Hannover 96||30.06.2020||30.06.2019|
It’s hard to tell how much Arsenal are paying these players exactly. Especially with all these performance bonuses and such. But we got this information from reliable sources.
The data about Arsenal players’ contracts is up to date and confirmed by reliable sites like Guardian, Transfermarkt, BBC, etc. The weekly wage figures of Arsenal players cannot be 100% accurate because no club discloses this information to media or fans.
Arsenal’s History In Top Tier English Football
Also known as the Gunners, Arsenal have spent most of their history in the English top-flight. The club has enjoyed UEFA Champions League football for over 14 seasons in a row under former manager, Arsene Wenger.
Arsenal’s home ground, Emirates is currently the 9th largest stadium in the United Kingdom behind Tottenham Hotspurs’ White Hart Lane and Celtic Park. They are also in Deloitte’s top ten list of the world’s richest clubs.
While their finances have taken a hit since their failure to qualify for the Champions League for the past 3 seasons (including the current one), Arsenal have adjusted by controlling their transfer expenditures.
They currently have one of the highest wage bills in the Premier League after the signing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Sokratis Papastathopoulos and Mesut Ozil to his new ginormous deal.


In Australia, restaurant owners and slot machine fans can breathe a sigh of relief. After several weeks of closure, the government allows pubs to be reopened and the machines, which are affectionately known in the country as “pokies”, to start operating from June 1st.
This means that a more than two-month dry spell will come to an end on the coming Whit Monday for players and operators of restaurants and pubs. At the end of March, the Australian government ordered a nationwide closure of shops due to the rapid spread of Covid-19 infections.
In the pubs, however, there are strict hygiene and distance rules. For example, operators must guarantee a minimum distance of 1.5 meters between all those present at all times, with only one person allowed to be in each 4 m². If there are too many devices in a room, the operators have to switch off as many of them until the distance rules can be observed.
Australian gamblers saved a billion dollars during the Covid-19 shutdown of land-based gambling establishments. It is estimated that Australians spent around AUD 1.5 billion less on gambling during this time.
According to the Australian media, however, the announcement that they will be allowed to operate their slot machines as long as food is served in their shops and no more than 50 people are present should be much more interesting for the pub owners.
The approval to operate the pokies is part of the efforts of the Australian government authorities to support the restaurants that have been particularly hard hit by the Covid-19-related closings.
In addition, the government has postponed tax payments on income from the pokies until the end of August. However, there are already several voices on the part of the operator that require further help.
But the joy of the restart announced for the beginning of June is not shared by all companies in the gaming sector. For example, casinos and gaming halls must remain closed until further notice.
For them, the time of uncertainty continues for the time being, because so far the responsible politicians have not commented on a possible loosening in this area.

A day in the life of Wendell Verret is like a Where’s Waldo? book; in the course of a day, you never know where he might pop up. The man who can’t say “no” to helping Delcambre, its nearby cities or its fishermen is always looking for the next project or collaboration to bring attention to the area and the industry that have been part of his life.
It’s been nearly 12 years since this attorney has traded his briefcase for more casual attire and become port director of the Twin Parish Port Commission. His day-to-day activities have him overseeing the planning, direction and operations of the port, but also an industrial fabrication facility, the North Pier Marina, and the boat landing and pavilion at Bayou Carlin Cove. Few people know better than Wendell how important a hub Delcambre is for Louisiana`s seafood industry.
In his efforts to help local farmers and fishermen sell their products, Wendell started a farmer’s market in 2013, which he eventually brought to the pavilion at Bayou Carlin Cove where fishermen sell shrimp from their boats. Through grant monies obtained, he has grown the Delcambre Seafood & Farmers Market to one with just over 53 vendors, and attended by an average of 1,100 people each month.
Like the market, many of Wendell’s projects are intended to create jobs and/or boost the local economy. When he initiated the e-commerce site, the Louisiana Direct Seafood Shop, it was to help small family-owned fishing businesses sell their seafood online to customers across the country. He was also instrumental in developing a brand label for their catches: Vermilion Bay Sweet.
“I like the process of conceiving and implementing new initiatives; it gets me very motivated,” says the man who spearheaded the future Acadiana Regional Seafood Hub to be built in his childhood stomping ground of Erath. It’s a project that will support small business development of the seafood industry and other food-related businesses. “I like to see growth of the economy in the communities of Delcambre and Erath,” says the Jefferson Island native.
From cooking demonstrations that promote Louisiana seafood to education workshops for shrimpers and collaborations with LSU’s AgCenter, Wendell has done his best to highlight the importance of the shrimping industry. “I want to see shrimpers stay in business as long as they can, so I’m in favor of anything we can do to help that,” he notes.
Wendell’s extensive volunteer work has given him a broad sense of “community” and aided him as port director. He served as chairman of the Greater Iberia Chamber of Commerce and currently sits on the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors. He is also co-chair of the Vermilion Chamber of Commerce Business Advocacy Committee and is actively involved in the Greater Iberia Chamber of Commerce World Championship Gumbo Cookoff.
An accomplished cook himself, he prepares many of the lunches served at the monthly markets- a little known fact. On weekends, you’ll find Wendell experimenting with new recipes from his home kitchen in Broussard, or working in his garden. And…the only thing that gets him more excited than a bountiful shrimp season is fantasy football season.


Employee development and growth are crucial components of any successful business. Investing in these areas not only benefits the employees, but also the organization as a whole. By providing opportunities for employees to learn and grow, companies can enhance their skills, improve their performance, and increase their engagement. In today's competitive job market, it's more important than ever to invest in employee development and growth in order to attract and retain top talent.
In this article, we will discuss strategies for promoting employee engagement through investing in employee development and growth. Whether you are a small startup or a large corporation, these strategies can help you create a culture of continuous learning and development that will benefit both your employees and your company. So let's dive in and explore the various ways in which you can invest in your employees' development and growth, and ultimately drive success for your organization. To truly understand the importance of investing in employee development and growth, we must first look at the main reasons why companies are implementing these initiatives. One of the main drivers is to improve the overall health and well-being of employees.
This includes mental health support, stress management techniques, tips for achieving work-life balance, and strategies for promoting employee engagement. By providing resources and support in these areas, companies can help their employees thrive both personally and professionally. For example, implementing a mental health support program can significantly benefit employees who may be struggling with anxiety or depression. These programs can include counseling services, workshops on stress management techniques, and resources for self-care. By addressing mental health concerns, companies can create a more positive and supportive work environment for their employees. Additionally, promoting work-life balance is crucial for employee well-being.
In today's society where constant connectivity is the norm, it's easy for employees to feel overwhelmed and burned out. By offering flexible work hours, remote work options, and encouraging employees to take breaks and disconnect after work hours, companies can help their employees achieve a healthier work-life balance. Employee engagement is also a key aspect of investing in employee development and growth. Engaged employees are more committed and motivated, leading to higher productivity and job satisfaction. Companies can promote employee engagement by fostering a positive workplace culture, providing opportunities for growth and development, and recognizing and rewarding employees for their hard work and contributions. It's important to note that investing in employee development and growth is not only beneficial for the employees, but also for the company itself.
Studies have shown that companies with engaged employees have higher profitability and lower turnover rates. By creating a positive and engaging work environment, companies can attract top talent and retain their valuable employees. Overall, investing in employee development and growth is essential for promoting employee well-being and creating a positive workplace culture. By providing resources and support for mental health, work-life balance, and employee engagement, companies can create a healthier and more productive workforce.
Work-Life BalanceAchieving a healthy work-life balance is crucial for both employees and employers. It not only leads to happier and more fulfilled employees, but also improves productivity and decreases burnout rates.
Here are some tips for promoting work-life balance in your workplace:
- Set clear expectations: Make sure your employees know what is expected of them in terms of work hours, response times, and availability. This helps them plan and prioritize their time effectively.
- Encourage breaks: Encourage your employees to take breaks throughout the day, whether it's a short walk outside or a quick meditation session. This can help them recharge and avoid burnout.
- Offer flexibility: Allow for flexible work arrangements, such as remote work or flexible hours. This can help employees better balance their personal and professional responsibilities.
- Lead by example: As a leader, make sure to practice what you preach when it comes to work-life balance.
If you are constantly working long hours and not taking breaks, your employees may feel pressure to do the same.
Mental Health SupportIn today's fast-paced work environment, employees are often under a lot of pressure to perform and meet deadlines. This can lead to high levels of stress and anxiety, which can greatly impact their mental health. As employers, it is our responsibility to provide resources and support for our employees' mental well-being.
Mental health supportcan come in various forms, such as employee assistance programs (EAPs), counseling services, and even mindfulness training. EAPs offer confidential counseling and support for employees dealing with personal or work-related issues.
Counseling services, either through in-house therapists or referrals, can provide employees with a safe space to talk about their mental health and receive guidance and support. Another way to promote mental health within the workplace is by offering mindfulness training. This can involve workshops or classes that teach employees techniques for managing stress, improving focus, and increasing overall well-being. By providing these resources, employers not only show that they care about their employees' mental health but also equip them with tools to better cope with the demands of their job.
Creating a healthy work cultureis also essential for promoting employee mental health. This can include encouraging work-life balance, promoting open communication, and fostering a supportive and inclusive environment.
When employees feel supported and valued, they are more likely to have better mental well-being and engagement in their work.
Employee EngagementEmployee engagement is a crucial aspect of a successful and thriving workplace. It refers to the level of commitment, passion, and connection an employee has towards their work and the organization. When employees are engaged, they are more motivated, productive, and have a higher sense of job satisfaction. This not only benefits the employees themselves, but also the company as a whole. So how can companies promote employee engagement through investing in development and growth? Here are some strategies to consider:
- Provide opportunities for learning and development - Employees want to feel like they are continuously learning and growing in their roles.
By offering training programs, workshops, and conferences, companies can show their employees that they value their personal and professional development.
- Encourage open communication - A key element of employee engagement is feeling heard and valued. Companies should create an environment where employees feel comfortable sharing their thoughts, ideas, and concerns with their managers and colleagues.
- Recognize and reward achievements - Employees who feel recognized and appreciated for their hard work are more likely to be engaged. Companies can do this through regular performance evaluations, bonuses, or even simple gestures like a thank you note.
- Promote work-life balance - In today's fast-paced world, it's important for companies to prioritize the well-being of their employees. By promoting a healthy work-life balance, employees will feel less stressed and more engaged in their work.
This will lead to increased productivity, profitability, and overall success for both the employees and the organization.
Benefits of Investing in Employee Development and GrowthInvesting in employee development and growth is a win-win situation for both employees and companies. It not only helps employees enhance their skills and advance in their careers, but also brings numerous benefits to the company as a whole. Let's take a closer look at why these initiatives are beneficial for both parties.
1.Increased Employee Engagement and RetentionInvesting in employee development and growth shows employees that their company values them and is willing to invest in their future.
This leads to a sense of loyalty and commitment, resulting in increased engagement and retention rates. When employees feel valued and supported, they are more likely to stay with the company for the long term.
2.Improved Performance and ProductivityEmployees who are continuously learning and developing their skills are more likely to perform better in their roles. As they gain new knowledge and capabilities, they become more efficient and effective, leading to increased productivity for the company.
3.Enhanced Company Reputation Companies that prioritize employee development and growth are seen as progressive and forward-thinking. This can improve the company's reputation, making it more attractive to potential employees and customers alike.
4.Better Succession PlanningInvesting in employee development and growth allows companies to identify and groom potential leaders from within the organization. This ensures a smooth succession plan and reduces the need for external hiring, which can be costly.
5.Positive Work Environment When employees feel supported and have opportunities for growth, it creates a positive work environment. This leads to happier employees, reduced stress levels, and a better overall workplace culture. As you can see, investing in employee development and growth not only benefits employees, but also has a positive impact on the company as a whole. It's a crucial aspect of promoting employee engagement and creating a healthy and thriving workplace. Investing in employee development and growth is crucial for promoting employee well-being and creating a positive workplace culture.
By providing resources and support in areas such as mental health, work-life balance, and employee engagement, companies can see an increase in productivity, profitability, and employee satisfaction. It's time for companies to prioritize the well-being of their employees and invest in their growth and development.


How Do Apps Make Money?
The mobile app economy has grown exponentially over the last decade and is showing no signs of slowing down. With millions of apps on the market, it’s no surprise that app developers are looking for new ways to monetize their products. So, how do apps make money?
One of the most common ways app developers make money is through in-app purchases. This is when users purchase virtual goods within the app. This is often used in games, where users can buy virtual currency, extra lives, or special items. In-app purchases are also commonly used in subscription-based services, allowing users to unlock additional features or content.
Subscriptions are another popular way for app developers to monetize their products. With this model, users pay a recurring fee for access to the app’s services. This can be a one-time fee, or a recurring fee. Subscriptions are often used for streaming services, cloud storage, productivity tools, and even gaming services.
Advertising is another popular way for app developers to make money. With this model, developers integrate advertisements into the app, which can be clicked or viewed by users. Advertisers then pay the developer for the clicks or views. This model is often used in free apps, as it is a great way to generate revenue with minimal effort.
Affiliate marketing is a form of marketing in which a business pays a third-party to promote their products or services. This is often used in apps, where the app developer will integrate links to third-party products or services. If a user clicks the link and completes a purchase, the app developer earns a commission.
App developers have a variety of ways to monetize their products. In-app purchases, subscriptions, advertising, and affiliate marketing are all popular methods for generating revenue. With the right strategy, app developers can make money and grow their business.

Ed’s redesigned website helps him get paid faster.
“Our business is 100% online. Therefore, not ranking for our services is a death sentence for our business.
At ﬁrst, we just wanted to know why our PPC campaigns weren’t performing.
However, after consulting our local digital agency, we realized our website was outdated, and a redesigned site with SEO capability was the need of the hour.
We decided to go down that route, and we couldn’t be happier. The price we’re paying for SEO doesn’t even come close to what we were spending on PPC, and we now have more business coming in than ever before.
We also added an ordering form to our site. The form captures all the client’s details; we then submit and invoice the form, and get paid faster.
Previously, although simple, the entire process was done manually — using email, phones, etc. Our SEO services are performed monthly and include blogging.
I can see immediate progress after every monthly post, and even get notiﬁed when the blog goes live.”

The third step to reviewing a business valuation report involves identifying any major scope limitations, restrictions and qualifications rendered on the value conclusions. This helps ascertain whether or not the valuator conducted sufficient work to support the value conclusion. The extent to which the valuator’s scope of review has been restricted can seriously impact the reliability of the valuation findings.
A business valuation report should explicitly identify any limitations in the valuator’s scope of review. In Canada, Chartered Business Valuators (CBVs) must follow the Practice Standards of the CICBV for Valuation Reports. In this regard, Practice Standard 110 states,
"The Valuation Report shall contain a scope of review that clearly identifies the specific information on which the Valuator relied to arrive at a conclusion. Where the conclusion is qualified by a scope limitation, regardless of the type of Valuation Report being provided, the limitation shall be explained, setting out the reasons for the limitation."
Potential scope limitations to consider when reviewing a valuation report include:
- Not having access to relevant information or key documentation;
- Not being permitted to interview key individuals;
- Not conducting a site visit or a tour of the company’s operating facilities;
- Not relying upon other specialists outside the valuator’s area of expertise (e.g. real estate appraiser, machinery and equipment appraiser, etc.); and
- Not having reliable financial information (e.g. financial statements prepared internally by management and not audited or reviewed by an external accountant).
Where do you find scope limitations in a valuation report?
Scope limitations should be separately identified in the valuation report and may be set out in one of the following sections of the report:
- Scope of Review & Limitations
- Restrictions & Qualifications
- Conclusion (e.g. immediately preceding or after the conclusions)
- Methodology or Valuation Approach
Limitations in the scope of a valuator’s review can negatively impact the quality and reliability of the value conclusions. Scope limitations are generally easy to spot as there is typically a section in the valuation report designated for their identification. Occasionally, scope limitations may not be explicitly highlighted in the report. They may be alluded to where the calculations are being explained or in the notes to the schedules where the valuation calculations themselves are contained. It is, therefore, worthwhile to scrutinize the report for any indication that the valuator was limited in his/her scope of review and question what impact that limitation may have had on the valuation conclusions contained therein.
If you have any questions regarding matters involving the valuation of your business or if you would like an independent business valuator to assist in your review of a business valuation report, contact us at www.vspltd.ca.

Start Early and Contribute Regularly:
One of the key strategies for maximizing your Roth IRA contributions is to start early and contribute regularly. By making contributions at the beginning of the year, you give your investments more time to grow tax-free. Additionally, setting up automatic contributions from your paycheck or bank account ensures a consistent saving habit, making it easier to reach the maximum contribution limit.
Take Advantage of Employer-Sponsored Retirement Plans:
If your employer offers a retirement plan, such as a 401(k) or 403(b), consider contributing to it alongside your Roth IRA. Employer-sponsored plans often provide matching contributions, which can significantly boost your retirement savings. By taking full advantage of these matching contributions, you can maximize your overall retirement savings potential.
Consider Backdoor Roth IRA Contributions:
High-income earners may face limitations when it comes to contributing directly to a Roth IRA. However, there is a strategy known as the “backdoor Roth IRA” that can help you overcome these limitations. It involves making a non-deductible contribution to a traditional IRA and then converting it to a Roth IRA. Consult with a financial advisor or tax professional to ensure this strategy aligns with your financial goals.
Leverage the Power of Tax-Free Growth:
One of the primary advantages of a Roth IRA is tax-free growth. By investing your contributions wisely, you can maximize the potential for your investments to grow over time. Consider diversifying your portfolio with a mix of stocks, bonds, and other assets based on your risk tolerance and long-term goals. Regularly review and rebalance your portfolio to ensure it remains aligned with your objectives.
Utilize Spousal Roth IRA Contributions:
If you or your spouse has little or no earned income, you can still contribute to a Roth IRA by utilizing spousal Roth IRA contributions. As long as one spouse has enough earned income to cover the contributions for both individuals, you can contribute to separate Roth IRAs for each spouse. This strategy can effectively double your contribution potential and boost your retirement savings.
Consider Roth Conversion Strategies:
If you have a traditional IRA or an employer-sponsored retirement plan, you may explore Roth conversion strategies. Converting these accounts to a Roth IRA can provide you with tax-free growth potential. However, it is essential to carefully evaluate the tax implications and consult with a financial advisor to determine if a Roth conversion aligns with your financial situation.
Stay Informed and Seek Professional Advice:
Tax laws and retirement regulations can change over time. To ensure you are maximizing your Roth IRA contributions effectively, stay informed about any updates or changes. Consider seeking guidance from a financial advisor or tax professional who specializes in retirement planning. They can help tailor a strategy that suits your specific needs and goals.
In conclusion, maximizing your Roth IRA contributions in 2023 requires careful planning and consideration. Start early, and contribute regularly.


It’s important we start conversations today around integrating Kansas City schools with the same information. School desegregation reached it’s peak in the US in 1988. In the 1987-88 school year, KCPS received a AAA rating from the state, the highest possible. However since Brown v. Board, a series of subsequent court decisions reduced court oversight and the ability of districts to desegregate.
Among them: decisions that concluded funding did not need to be equal for students within each state; the Milliken v. Bradley decision which blocked metro-wide desegregation plans; and the Missouri v. Jenkins decision that ultimately blocked salary increases for KCPS teachers and staff as well as funding for quality programs.
“The Court agreed with the State’s argument after examining the district court’s goal of crafting the School District into one “equal to or superior to the surrounding” suburban school districts. The Court found that salary increases to employees, instructional employees or otherwise, would make the School District more attractive and contribute to the impermissible goal of inducing non-minorities students from outside the School District to enroll in schools within the District.”
– MO v. Jenkins: The Beginning of the End for Desegregation
Today the public schools in Kansas City, both district and charter, are very segregated both racially and socioeconomically. While the school aged population in Kansas City is close to 30% white, public school enrollment by white families is nearer to 10%. And although district-wide public school enrollment shows 55% of students are low-income, individual school enrollment rates vary widely – a handful of schools enroll under 30% while many others enroll over 70%.
The differences in resources and challenges between these schools is inherently unequal. Privileged segregated schools are proud of their community partnerships, volunteers, parent involvement, and fundraising. But concentrating middle class and affluent families in a few schools directly results in the isolation of low income students in poverty concentrated schools. These schools face many more challenges, including students experiencing trauma from eviction, homelessness, and food insecurity.

Ireland's No. 1 FREE magazines for parents & teachers of primary school children
JK Services has been proudly taking care of Munster's electrical services for over 35 years, and to celebrate, are giving away a voucher for €500 for solar panels installation for a family home PLUS a €150 restaurant voucher for The Glass Curtain, Cork, and a runner-up prize of €150 restaurant voucher for The White Horse in Cork.
A solar panel system can be installed on the roof of most homes by JKS, and south facing to be most effective - or alternatively fixed onto external walls or located on the ground. Lower the cost of your electricity bills, heat your home using solar power - increase the resale value of your home.
As energy prices continue to rise, more and more people are looking to renewable energy such as solar panels for their home. By installing solar panels, not only will you be able to make savings on your fuel bills, but a new Government scheme will also mean individuals will be able to sell their own renewable electricity into the national grid in the near future. The average family* will save €400 per year on their electricity bills using solar panels on their home. They will also be entitled to a €2,100 grant from SEAI for the solar panel installation which costs approximately €5,400. This means an annual return on their investment of 12% for the lifetime of the installation – not bad when banks are offering 0% return on savings!
T&Cs apply. Competition entries accepted via website only. The promoter’s decision is final. Prize is €500 JKS solar panels installation for home (or electrical work to the same value) plus €150 restaurant voucher for The Glass Curtain, Cork. One runner-up prize of €150 restaurant voucher for The White Horse, Cork. No cash alternative. Prize is non-negotiable and cannot be transferred. Full details on request. Personal email address is required to enter. Opt-in marketing newsletter is not a condition of entry. Only Irish residents aged 18 and above are eligible to take part. Closing date 30 May 2021. Full T&Cs available on JK Services website. This competition is not endorsed, sponsored or administered by Facebook, nor is Facebook associated with the contest.

Inca Kola is a soft drink (or as I call it, pop) that originated in Peru in 1935. It was created by an English immigrant and is as ubiquitous in Peru as Coca Cola is in the United States. Widely popular in Peru, it does not have much of a role in foreign markets, outside of the Latin American specialty shops. The drink is yellow in color and apparently was made from 13 different flavors derived from plants and carbonating it; strangely, the drink tastes like bubble gum (so maybe bubble gum isn’t all artificial flavor after all?). I doubt that today it is still made from plants, but it is nice to know its humble roots were organically based!
The drink was a success and grew in popularity over the years. During the 1940’s, Peru began experiencing a movement toward national pride and Inca Kola used this to their advantage by heavily advertising the drink with traditional Inca icons which the population slowly accepted as the unofficial drink of Peru. (The real drink of Peru is Chicha, a corn based beer). Since then, this drink has increased in popularity and market share and put a dent (temporarily) in the global domination of Coca Cola.
Peruvians are fiercely patriotic (much like Brazilians) and to stop supporting their “national” drink was ludicrous. Inca Kola dominated the market and kept Coca Cola at bay. Sometime in the 90’s, most fast food chains (notorious for serving Coca Cola products) switched from offering regular Coca Cola to Inca Kola. Talk about a slap in the face! Until this point, Coca Cola had never had any real competition, let alone from a much smaller operator. Who would have thought that a small Peruvian company could take on such a goliath…and win!
I think this just goes to show what can be done by a company who knows their market and knows how to brand themselves within that market. They definitely did not have the kind of money that Coca Cola had (and has), yet they were able to maintain so much market share that the only way Coca Cola could win was to purchase the company; which it did in 1997. Inca Kola still owns the trademark rights within Peru and even operates the bottling process for domestic and global markets. There are only two other smaller bottlers in the USA that supplant it.


Graduates Continue Entrepreneurial Education
Graduates Take Courses and Raise Money for Future Enterprises
We are pleased to say many of the 2013 Sega graduates who finished their formal education in December are continuing their studies in Entrepreneurship. This past Saturday, fourteen of the graduates enrolled in a 10-week course at the Magadu Entrepreneurship & Business Training Institute (MEBTI). This course is sponsored by Sega and designed to be the final culmination of all the business training the students have received.
These students also have a plan to raise money to help start their businesses at the end of the MEBTI course. To do so, the girls will attend other MEBTI conferences and events where they will sing, dance and tell poems in exchange for donations. These donations will be divvied up among the students to help with the initial funding of their enterprises. The girls performed at one such conference last week and it was a great success!
We are proud of our graduates for taking steps to help their dream businesses become realities!
