Summer came late this year and seems to have ended early. School is in session, the days are shorter, and everyone is back to the hustle and bustle of life. Life has changed over the last couple years. Our year (or two) at home allowed us to get creative. Many finished that home project, found a new hobby, and even started a side gig.

LETTER
During the Great Recession that began in 2007, a gig economy started to rise. What is a gig economy? Investopedia defines it as, “In a gig economy, temporary, flexible jobs are commonplace and companies tend to hire independent contractors and freelancers instead of full-time employees. A gig economy undermines the traditional economy of full-time workers who often focus on their career development.”
In life after COVID-19, we see the gig economy starting to rise again. People have been enjoying their flexible schedules and work from home lives. Their side gigs have become a way to earn more cash or a creative outlet. Our community is loaded with side gigs, and we bet you didn’t even realize it.
Did you know Jake’s Bakes has a full-time job? Or Erika at Hi Honey has three!? I bet you had no idea that the owner of Bearscat Bakehouse is also a college professor! Even our team at Bismarck Magazine has side gigs! Learn all about our designer Jenna and her side gig with us and be sure to read all about Sweat Co. where our publisher Hannah coaches on the side. Whether it is a creative outlet or a way to earn a little extra cash, a second job can be fun! Be sure to read their stories and support their small businesses!

With business analysis, security/anti-virus and mobile support, along with other services, Silicon Plains has positioned itself to showcase the North Dakota way of doing business. Co-owner and CEO Dan Polk, recently awarded the Entrepreneur of the Year by the Bismarck-Mandan Chamber EDC, has always had a passion for making people’s lives a little easier and well-protected when it comes to their IT needs. As founder of Silicon Plains in 2009, Polk indicated the company has always been about developing the proper relationships.
SERVING THE PLANET STORY: KAREL SOVAK PHOTOS: NEWAGE CREATIVE
A majority of people have probably heard of the tech hub Silicon Valley in ForCalifornia.people on the prairie of North Dakota, there may be a best kept secret that is now making its way beyond our borders. Silicon Plains proudly proclaims it's “serving the planet” from the company headquarters in Bismarck.
Silicon Plains
“Our motto is ‘Do what’s right, no matter what, even if it gets you fired’,” Polk expressed. “That kind of commitment is hard to find, but I won’t accept any less. I grew up in the technology industry
It is that dedication to quality, as well as the building of trust, that has helped in the scale of growth the company has
and learned early on how terrible the typical computer person or company can be about listening to understand or being trustworthy.” Polk indicated it is one of the most important aspects of providing quality customer service.
Polk knows that it is important to have a synergy work with a company so that both parties are more than satisfied with the “We’veresults.alldealt with that super technical person we couldn’t get along with or were convinced they were wasting our time and money”, Polk stated. “I decided to change that completely and as a result, Silicon Plains now delivers business outcomes wildly better than any other IT firm. We learn from our clients, we believe in their businesses and goals and we build our solutions around their expectations and our requirements. Of course our technical staff is brilliant, but we’re also the ones you can trust to do the right thing. No matter what.”
12 BISMARCK MAGAZINE | SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER 2022 achieved. Silicon Plains has established its new headquarters in downtown Bismarck with a recent renovation on Main Street. That move was needed because Silicon Plains has positioned itself as one of the top 15% largest IT companies in the world.
“Even at 3 employees, I made sure
“Every minute and every dollar made has been about investment since I started Silicon Plains in 2009,” Polk explained. “Since then we’ve grown to a multimillion dollar, multi-state powerhouse of cyber security, IT helpdesk and consulting solutions. We grew because early on we understood exactly what it meant to be the best: do what no one else has been willing to do. We hyperinvested in our people, our processes and our corporate maturity much earlier than our competitors. Every dollar made went back into the company’s future, not fancy offices or billboards on Main ThatStreet.”commitment came from day one with the organization. Polk justified that reasoning as a commitment no matter how big the company would become.
Crushing their competitors is only one aspect of their growth. Their recent acquisition of one of Colorado’s largest IT providers has allowed Silicon Plains to open a second office in Denver.
BISMARCK-MAGAZINE.COM 13 we were in regular meetings about servant leadership,” Polk noted. “Day one we were learning documentation for compliance purposes, creating and attending relationship building events with our clients and paying for great health benefits, education and skill development for our staff. We have a saying at Silicon Plains: ‘If you don’t keep learning, one day you’ll come into the office and you won’t feel like you belong. The company will have moved on, and it’ll be too late for you!’ This kind of business and career investment has been exactly why we’ve crushed so many competitors and grown so quickly.”
“The IT services industry is changing fast,” Polk said. “In 2009, what we were offering was unique and ahead of our competitors by at least a decade. It was a ‘be first’ strategy, and it worked. Since then most of the industry has copied what we do. Obviously we’re flattered.
Polk discussed how such acquisitions will allow for viable sustainability in a dynamic industry like IT.
Asmanagement.”forwhatisnext with Silicon Plains, Polk said the company is setting itself up for future growth.
Now that they’re actively trying to keep up, we’ve moved into our next phase of growth and sustainability: strategic acquisition. We’ve completed our merge with Complete Technology Solutions in Denver, Colorado and we’re expertly positioned as an absolute powerhouse of purchasing power and IT service Thatexcellence.”expansion will rely on the expertise of others in the field who share the philosophy Silicon Plains established since its roots. Polk explained how the new acquisition will meet those requirements.
To make sure we’re always financially healthy and powerful we have Nicole Kohler, our Chief Financial Officer. She has unmatched skill and experience in all areas of vision-driven financial

“Herb Miner, our Chief Operating Officer, will be leading our service group to make sure we never take our eyes off the ball,” Polk said. “He’s an absolute animal.
“We’ve also created a separate division within the company to pursue further acquisitions and have hired an industry consultant along with a mergers and acquisitions company to make sure our deals make sense,” Polk added. “We have investors ready to help finance this pace of new growth as we can’t afford to jeopardize our world-class service by spending all our own cash. We could not be better positioned for what’s around the corner in our industry.”

SIDE GIGS HOW THEY DO IT ALL
Simple Sugar MARK AND REBECCA BINSTOCK
Rebecca: “Simple Sugar started because our oldest daughter has severe food allergies and couldn’t enjoy traditional things at parties, like cake or ice cream. For her birthday, she requested cotton candy, and we tried to find some place that made cotton candy or that we could buy it from in town. We really struggled to do that. Eventually, my husband was like this is ridiculous, there should be something, so he researched and bought a machine, and we started making cotton candy. We were told we should use prepackaged sugar and then we started looking at it. It was full of a bunch of artificial things and artificial colors and a lot of it was made in a facility that manufactured tree nuts and peanuts, so our daughter still wouldn’t have been able to eat it. We decided, let’s see if we can make our own flavored sugar, so we use local produce and sugar, and that’s the only thing in our product.” Do you make anything besides cotton candy?
Rebecca: “Simple Sugar”
Rebecca: “No, that’s kind of the cool thing. We wanted it to be exclusively cotton candy so we could tell parents or people who are consuming our

Mark: “By volume, definitely strawberry. I think it’s just because it’s familiar to everybody. Some of the other ones like honeyberry, juneberry, chokecherry, they’re not as well known. Up until a year and a half ago I’d never heard of a honeyberry, so I’m guessing other people haven’t either.”
Rebecca: “People can order online directly through us through our social media. We do not have a website yet, that’s coming soon. It’s always at the Bisman Community Co-op over on Sweet, and at BisMarket on Saturdays in the summer.”

Rebecca: “It’s a berry that people grow in North Dakota, and they are delicious. They’re really high in antioxidants as well, so you can throw them in your smoothies or whatever.” Mark: “Call it health food if you want.”
“Cupcakes, cakes. Cakes are my favorite. I do more unique types of breads and pastries sometimes. Baklava is a very popular one. Macarons are a lot of fun, too."
Honey Bee Bakery
“It’s a great creative outlet. I’ve always been kind of creative with food… It’s a lot of fun and the sky’s the limit. The more interesting orders people come up with, the better.” What kind of baked goods do you make?
20 BISMARCK MAGAZINE | SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER 2022
“Ever since I was little, I’ve been baking. I took over making the cake for all my siblings from my mom when I was younger. I started doing it more for friends and family, and then my brother asked me if it would be a good idea to try and do this as a side business. I pushed it off for a while because I was busy enough with work at the hospital, but then he convinced me to let him make me an Instagram account… and it just took off from there.” Why do you love baking?

What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever baked?
“I made like a five-tier Avengers groom cake a few years ago. That took like 20-30 hours to make because it was like five separate projects just all stacked on top of each other.”
“I just love it. I lose track of time honestly. I can be on my feet 15-16 hours just working on projects before I realize I need a nap or take a break. The more creative license that my customers let me have, the more fun I’m able to have in the kitchen… I love that I can make a hobby and a passion I’ve had since I was little into a side business.”
“It’s a juggling act that’s been working out for me so far. It’s nice that I can do this as a side hustle and I don’t have to cram too much into one work week if I don’t want to… When I have lighter weeks at the hospital, I can take on more orders, or if I know I have big weddings coming up, I’ll just take some time off from the hospital to do this.”

“Family members had encouraged us to try selling our bread… We moved to Lincoln, and there wasn’t a farmer’s market. There was a community Facebook page someone had posted on asking if a market was started would people sell and buy at it. I messaged the person and said we’d love to do this, if you need help coordinating, let us know. She messaged me right back and said yes, I could use some help. So my wife and I and that couple started the Lincoln Farmer’s Market in 2020… We started selling a few different flavors as we went on and grew in popularity. How has your business grown since then? “We have been able to expand into hummus. That started in October of last year.

“I just met with another local hummus producer that’s selling in stores now, and she said that we had inspired her to start selling their hummus… I’d rather compete against local producers rather than national chain producers. Nothing against people that go national, but that dollar that’s local is just more impactful. As of today, we have three local hummuses at the co-op and one national chain. It’s pretty cool.”
“It’s really about boundaries and what are your goals. Ours is not to become huge… I really encourage people to think about not having to give up one passion for the other. If you want to make it your full-time thing, great, but it’s possible to do both. Just depends on what your goals are.”

We ran that for a few years, and then I bought him out in 2009. We changed the name to Bearscat in 2011, and that’s when we went out on our own… slowly we opened the Mandan store, then the

Any plans to make Bearscat your full-time gig? “I’m not good at plans. I just go with the flow. With the school, they only offer us contracts yearly. Every year my contract comes up and every year I contemplate. But I did sign my contract for this year, so I’m teaching for at least one more year.” We heard you’re opening a second location in Bismarck! “Yes, it’ll be next to Starbucks on Third and Indiana. It’s been a long process. Our original plan was to get construction done and be open last fall and it was quickly realized that wouldn’t happen… But they’re supposed to be done with construction the end of September.” What’s your favorite part of owning Bearscat? “Probably the expansion. I’m always out there looking for what’s next… It’s always fun to me to get out there and open a new store and stuff like that.”

Jen: “We are both owners of Design That Sells.” What is Design That Sells?
Nate: “Design That Sells started four years ago, but we’ve been doing staging for probably six or seven years. It started because I was trying to create relationships with local builders since I sell furniture and do interior design stuff.”
Nate: “Design That Sells is a home staging company. We basically bring in furniture and decor and make a home ready for the market. I work with realtors, for sale by owners, and builders, so when a potential buyer walks in, they can envision themselves living there. Instead of walking into a big vacant room with nothing going on, they feel welcome. It actually helps the builder or realtor potentially sell it faster and for more money.”
How did your side gig get started?

Nate: “When we started getting busy, it was very chaotic. It still does happen, but now we have a coordinated schedule where we have certain days that we stage. If we need to stage on a different day we’re going to make it happen. We want to do the best we can for the client... We also have an awesome team that helps out.”

At one point in time it was a cartoon chicken. In a moment of panic I was like, I’m not getting a chicken tattooed on my body. One of my hair clients, her daughter had just done spring break, and they had these permanent bracelets done. So in my moment of panic I looked online to see if there’s any place in Phoenix or Scottsdale that did it. We ended up at a sketchy tattoo shop… but we found these bracelets and I fell in love. And I have no chicken tattoos, so that’s also a bonus.”

The Secret to Skin
Before After
As the weather cools down, and we prepare for the fall and winter season, now is the perfect time to start a session of peels. While hot temperatures and exposure to the sun can complicate the results of a skin peel, the cooler months are the best time to ensure the best results. The recommendation for skin peels is to do a series of 4-6 peels, getting one every 4 6 weeks. Kharma Vida offers nine different kinds of peels that all offer different benefits. Through a deeper exfoliation of your skin that removes the layer of dead skin cells, peels help products penetrate better, give the skin a better glow, reverse skin damages like fine lines, pigmentation, acne, acne scarring, textural issues, pore size, and improve the overall health of your skin. Peels are not only for the face either. You can get a peel on any part of your skin. Back and chest peels are popular solutions for acne, and thigh and arm peels are popular for textural issues. Prior to the actual peel, there is a recommended consultation with an esthetician to choose the peel that is best for your skin at the time. The actual peel only takes 25 minutes, and the team at Kharma Vida makes the process enjoyable and relaxing, even giving their clients a scalp massage. Peels start at only $60, so reach out to the estheticians at Kharma Vida to get your consultation for healthier glowing skin today! Call (701) 751 0870 or visit their website at kharmavida.com for more information.
