Talk on home and garden:

  1. Opt for a front loading washing machine over a top loading washing machine

If you want your clothes to last longer, it’s worth opting for a front loading washing machine over a top loading washing machine. As front loading washing machines are designed to be gentler than top loading washing machines.

2. Wash your underwear in a delicates bag

Instead of placing your underwear straight into your washing machine, protect your underwear by placing your underwear in a delicates bag. Which you can then chuck into your washing machine.

3. If you have hardwood floors ensure to wax them a few times a year

In order to protect your hardwood floors, it’s well worth ensuring to use a hardwood specific wax to treat your hardwood floors a couple of times per year.

4. Find out what types of vegetables you can replant

Travel Talk: 6 Travel Tips

December 11, 2018 by Tristan Leave a Comment

If you love discovering new travel tips, continue reading to discover 6 travel tips which are well worth utilizing.

Travel Talk: 6 Travel Tips

  1. Keep a small, travel-sized pack of tissues in your daypack or handbag

As you never know when a bathroom in a foreign country may run out of toilet paper, it’s well worth keeping a small, travel-sized pack of tissues on you, when you travel.

2. Only bother packing one pair of clean underwear for each day

While some travelers may recommend packing as many pairs of underwear as possible, the reality is that you can always wash your underwear in the sink and hang it to dry in your hotel’s shower, if need be. So don’t waste luggage space by packing too many pairs of underwear.

3. If you’re female it’s well worth packing 1-2 sports bras

Even if you don’t plan on spending your vacation days in your hotel or resort’s gym, it’s well worth packing 1-2 sports bras as they’ll come in handy if you plan on taking part in adventurous, active activities. Examples of which may include mountain biking, horse riding, and quad biking.

You can even use a stylish sports bra as a makeshift bikini top if you feel like taking a spontaneous dip in a pool, beach or river which you come across.

4. Pack a small, microfiber towel in your luggage

The reason why it’s a wise idea to pack a microfiber towel in your luggage is that if you go swimming at a beach, before continuing traveling, you won’t have to wait a long time for your towel to dry. Better yet, you won’t have to contend with putting a smelly, damp towel into your luggage. Which is never a good idea!

5. Pack photocopies of all of your travel documents in different pieces of your luggage

As an example, you should never leave the country without taking a few copies of your passport, which you can then store in your checked in luggage and carry on luggage. When you check into your hotel, it’s also a great idea to lock a photocopy of each of your important travel documents in your hotel safe. Just to be on the safe side!

6. Don’t travel without travel insurance

Deciding to travel without purchasing travel insurance could be one of the most expensive mistakes that you’ll ever make. Especially if you find yourself in a medical emergency and have to find a way to pay tens of thousands of dollars for the medical treatment which you need in a foreign hospital.

7. Only pack clothing items which you can easily mix and match to create various stylish outfits

You’ll find it far easier to come up with new outfits to wear on your upcoming vacation if you only pack clothing items which you can easily mix and match in order to create at least 6 different outfits. Also, pack a few cheap accessories such as belts and scarves which can make an outfit you’ve already worn look brand new.

So if you’re an intrepid traveler, you’ll definitely find all of the travel talk, travel tips listed above helpful.

December 11, 2018 by Tristan Leave a Comment

If you’re the proud owner of a local business, continue reading to discover must-read tips on running a successful local business.

Invaluable tips on owning a local business:

  1. Make sure to get involved with your community

If you plan on running a successful local business, you’ll be far more likely to succeed if you make a genuine effort to get involved with your community. Some great ways to get involved in your community are to sponsor a local sports team or community group or to sponsor a community event such as a fair, festival, parade or fun run.

Not only will choosing to get involved with your local community help increase your business’ brand awareness and significantly increase your business’ sales and profits figures but you’ll also feel great seeing what a difference your business can make to the members of your community.

2. Offer regular sales that your community will want to take advantage of

As an example, if you own a restaurant you may want to offer two meals for the price of one meal on a specific day such as Tuesdays in order to draw patrons into your restaurant.

Alternatively, if you run a boutique style store, you may want to create a buzz around your business by offering half-priced days, when any item which has a yellow sticker is 50% off its recommended retail price. Which will allow you to sell stock which you’re looking to get rid and will encourage customers who wouldn’t normally visit your store to walk in and take a look around.

3. Offer a loyalty card that will encourage locals to visit your business on a regular basis

It’s human nature to want something for nothing, so if you’re able to offer your repeat customers discounts for visiting your business on a regular basis, locals are bound to flock to your business. In the hopes of getting a percentage discount off their shopping or to receive a free product.

4. Create new jobs for locals

If your business grows from strength to strength, you’ll have the opportunity to create more jobs for locals, which will garner more attention for your business. As an example, you may be able to get an article about your business featured in a local community newspaper, which could increase your sales statistics.

5. Treat every customer like a VIP

If you give your customers surly service, customers are highly unlikely to shop at your business again. Which can be extremely damaging when you operate a local business. Worse yet, the disgruntled customers who you upset may tell their friends and family members to avoid your business, which could cost you hundreds of dollars of revenue in the near future.

6. Consider operating an online store as well as a brick and mortar store

In order to increase your customer base, it’s well worth setting up an online store as well as a brick and mortar store.

So if you take the six tips listed above to heart you should be able to build a following for your local business, which will guarantee that your business stays in operation for years to come.
