THE NEW 335 PRESSURE WASHING UNIT. BUILT TO THE ORANGE STANDARD. There seems to be an acceptance that low pressure water jetting systems are fragile and prone to breakdown. We don’t believe just because it’s not ultra-high pressure, it should get a pass on reliability. In fact, it’s exactly why we’ve built the new NLB 335 3,500 psi (241 bar) hot water pressure unit. The 335 is built to the same standards as our industry leading high pressure systems and building reliability to our standards means profitability to you. If you’re ready to learn about how a real unit can operate, look at the NLB 335. Just another reason why the industry gold standard is orange.

ABOUT ONLINE MARKETING IN THE NEWS
Having an internet presence is necessary for all businesses today, from the smallest shop to the biggest multinationals. But there are common myths that can make starting online marketing seem SPOTLIGHT overwhelming. In startups already struggling with budget, business owners may even wrongly conclude that online marketing is not really worth the investment of time and money. That is a mistake that can seriously impede a business from realizing its growth goals in today’s digitally-driven consumer market. Fortunately, there are ways that entrepreneurs in the portable restroom rental business can avoid the kinds of mistakes that can lead to the problems that have lent to the myths. What Online Marketing Evolution Means to Small Business To be fair, some myths may have been somewhat more valid in the past, but are now long outdated information. Seeing past myths about online marketing is essential to the success of today’s growing companies. Still, unwarranted fears sometimes hold back business owners from taking the right steps to establish their online marketing. This means they’re not

competing where they can most readily connect with their prospective and current customers. An internet presence is necessary for all modern businesses, from the small Main Street shop to the global chain. With almost any commercial growth phenomenon, there are early systemic challenges. In the case of the explosion of online sales and marketing over the past 14 years, one problem has been in the area of educating smaller businesses to utilize abundantly available digital tools. But, today, more and more startup entrepreneurs are maximizing profitability by getting past web marketing myths and taking full advantage of this essential marketing resource.

The Most Common Myths About Online Marketing Knowing how to protect and make the most of your investment in your online marketing program will allow you to reap the benefits from online marketing. Those benefits should far outweigh the concerns about risks involved in marketing your business online. Find out what you need to do to avoid the kinds of potential stumbling blocks in marketing campaigns and programs online that have led to false beliefs such as these:
1.
WEBSITES NEED CONTINUOUS UPDATING. There’s a more general marketing myth that continuous change is necessary. While it won’t work well to
Vi s i t Us

Optimize your website’s design, architecture, network of organic links, keyword placement, meta-titles and descriptions, blog content, headers, and other SEO elements. assume that creative work on your site is a one-time need, there’s also no reason to change your business’s image if the one you have is serving you well. So, do routinely test for indicators of need for changes on your site. But, don’t make changes in order to adhere to the false principle that there is a need for constant change. Routinely test upgrades, analyze results to help determine possible needs for improvements, and use insights gained to help build solutions. Don’t hold out for creative perfection, because thinking you can achieve it is another kind of myth. Just create something good, and use it to start gathering response data to help you observe and be responsive to trends.
2.
DRIVING TRAFFIC REQUIRES NON-STOP BLOGGING. The myth of need for constant blogging can lead business owners to push themselves to the point of fatigue and can even dull their passion for their own businesses. Just
set a schedule for your blogging that makes sense for a busy person, based on the kind of business you’re in and the actual amount of your income that you can directly attribute to the blog. Be reliable for your readers — publish on time, and don’t skip publication dates. If it feels too grueling to keep outputting content, change your strategy. Fortunately, because of the organic nature and rapid pace of social, blog content is recyclable. Some readers miss a post’s original publication, others have forgotten what you wrote, others wish they had digested some of the information better. Some content is “evergreen,” which means it’s timeless, always relevant. Update the general perspective of a post for readers, add some new points of information, reassign shared links throughout the piece, and reformat it to further freshen it up.
3.
SEO IS NOT REALLY NECESSARY. Your online marketing depends upon the effectiveness of your SEO (search engine optimization) efforts. Excellent creative design can’t work for you if it’s lost in the cybersphere, among countless other insufficiently supported hopefuls. Optimize your website’s design, architecture, network of organic links, keyword placement, meta-titles and descriptions, blog content, headers, and other SEO elements. Focus on enhancing your users’ experience, to generate higher click-through and conversion rates. To maximize its effectiveness, SEO cannot be treated as merely a periodic investment.

So, don’t use your social page to make sales presentations. Use it as an opportunity to engage with your readers in a more social way. People will interact with you in a more positive way in a social communications space that is designated for that particular kind of engagement. Offer posts on topics of interest to your readers. Offer some point that will amuse, inform, educate, inspire them, and maybe will stimulate conversation. According to the PEW Research Center (2019) “seven in ten adults (69%)” are Facebook users. They’ve come to the social space to engage on a more social level. So, you’re in the right place to have genuine dialogue with your audience.

FACEBOOK PAGE REPLACES THE NEED FOR A WEBSITE. For all of its abundant opportunities and spectacular ROI, social media cannot serve as a replacement for a business’s well-designed website. The website is the company’s digital store. Prospects and current customers must be able to go over to your site and purchase your products and services there. Your website needs to look sharp, function smoothly, be easy to navigate, have unbroken internal links and external links (if applicable). Your site needs to contain all the operations needed to obtain information and execute transactions. If a website’s maintenance is poor, it will generate low SEO rankings. The company’s credibility will predictably be impacted, as customers discover the site is being maintained in an unprofessional way.

SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING IS COST-FREE. It’s true that there is no charge for using free social platforms. But, of course, maintaining an active presence means you’re using resources for creative and for P R O D U To C Tincrease W AT CH user engagement. your volume of leads from social requires applying additional resources, just as with any other kind of marketing. Fortunately, social media marketing costs per lead are relatively low. Social also yields a relatively high number of leads. Facebook alone has a billion active users! Google+ has 100 million users. Approximately 74% of U.S. users report that they I NsiteTdaily.

Altogether, a staggering 70% of internet users spend time on social platforms, according to the PEW Research Center (April 2019). So, your company’s customers are likely to be users of one of these social networks. Therefore, while social marketing is not free, the numbers make it clear enough S P Oimplemented T L I G H Tappropriately, the media should be that, when expected to deliver substantial returns.

SOCIAL IS TOP OF FUNNEL ONLY. Advancements in data utilization tools for targeting, monitoring ad venues, and targeting on Facebook and other social platforms have enabled direct-response tracking. These resources, as well as analytics, automation, and other state-of-the-art web marketing have made social media the world’s most productive source of new and repeat sales for many businesses. Using the warm, social quality of messaging is especially appealing to today’s consumers, who prefer more genuine relationships with the companies they choose to do business with. Social engagement also gives your business the opportunity to be where your customers and prospects are spending time. There, you can offer knowledge as an authority in your field, provide instruction, welcome opportunities to help with issues, and use what is learned from complaints to make necessary product and service improvements. You can also be there to employ a proper process for dealing with an inconsolable customer. Engagement on social media promotes a brand, attracts leads, and provides a quality space for staying in front of current customers.
10.
SOCIAL ONLY WORKS IN CERTAIN INDUSTRIES. It’s a serious mistake to assume that social marketing can only be effective in certain industries, and that those are all B2C. The majority of industries do well to engage their prospects and current customers through social channels. Start by identifying the social channels that are most fitting with the kinds of products and services that your company offers.

Access your social accounts routinely, and respond to people within a reasonable timeframe. Use closed-loop reporting software to track traffic driven to your site from social media sources as well as the totals of leads and conversions generated by them for your business. MOVE PAST MYTHS AND BRING YOUR BUSINESS ONLINE. Watch out for online marketing performance reports that are based on insufficiently, or inappropriately analyzed data. These can produce information that takes key data out of context and causes serious misinterpretations that can lead to wrong decisions about your actual need to bring your business marketing program online. That’s an unfortunate direction that is sure to negatively impact your company’s profit margins and growth. Some digital marketing myths may have had some merit in the early days of the web, but those are long-resolved as real causes for digital marketing concerns. A good place to start your online marketing endeavor is in taking time to do a little research on myths about online marketing. When you do get your online marketing program in place, keep up to date on changing trends in business marketing, and adapt your marketing plans, to enable your portable restroom business to continue to compete optimally online.

ELYRIA, OHIO – August 12, 2019 - The industry’s most powerful wet/dry vacs are now giving pros more to love: the RIDGID® NXT line of 6, 12, 14 and 16 gallon models recently underwent an ergonomic makeover, with enhanced features designed to make jobsite cleanup even easier. “Jobsite cleanup is never a fun task for the professional, and it’s one that can often slow down a job. RIDGID wet/ dry vacs have always been known for their superior pickup performance; we wanted to see if there were new ways we could make the cleanup process better,” said Sabrina Witkowski, RIDGID Global Marketing Manager. “Working alongside professionals in the field helped us discover some clear ease-of-use innovations that could help tradespeople get on to the next job faster.”
Redesigned features include: 4 A front-to-back top carry handle for more comfortable grab-and-go maneuverability 4 Added comfort-grip side handles for extra ease in lifting, carrying or emptying the vac 4 A new drum key and side latches that create a tighter lidto-drum seal to securely keep dirt, dust and debris inside the vac 4 A larger on/off switch for easier operation with gloved hands 4 A built-in cord wrap to more neatly store the cord for transport All of the vacs also include a new ultra-flexible locking hose that won’t pull loose and is four times more durable than a standard hose. The 12, 14 and 16 gallon models include an updated utility nozzle that delivers a 77% increase in pickup power.

ELYRIA, OHIO – August 6, 2019 – The RIDGID® K-5208 Sectional Machine, the most powerful compact sectional machine on the market, just got better with the addition of a new transport cart for easier jobsite maneuvering and storage. The K-5208 Sectional Machine Transport Cart is designed to reduce plumber fatigue when moving the K-5208 and cable carrier from work truck to jobsite and features an integrated stair climber to minimize body strain while climbing and descending stairs. The cart can be stored both vertically and horizontally with the ability for the K-5208 to be operated from the cart when in the horizontal position. It also has a wheel lock for enhanced stability when in use or stored. “Overwhelmingly, when talking to plumbers about the RIDGID K-5208 Sectional Machine, we heard first about how much they loved the machine, and, second, about their desire for a dedicated cart to support it. We’re excited to now offer the RIDGID K-5208 Sectional Machine Transport Cart that, along with the already lighter K-5208 sectional machine, will enhance jobsite ergonomics even further,” said Brendon Goede, product manager, underground technologies, RIDGID. The K-5208, weighing 30 percent less than the RIDGID K-1500 Sectional Machine, is purpose-built to cut through the toughest roots with a ¾ HP motor and cable that can spin up to 700 RPM. It’s designed for drains 2” to 8” in diameter. It features a tool-less clutch adjustment to quickly switch between 7/8” to 1 ¼” cable sizes. The K-5208 also comes with a Trident Sectional Cable Decoupler for disconnecting cables

Here’s a dif ferent kind of portable restroom business. Pit Stop’s owner, Charlie Hatler, stands out in the industry with his unique and highly ef fective business model and world-class marketing ingenuity. We’re grateful to Charlie for taking time out of his busy morning, between fielding calls, to share a little of his company’s story and some truly fresh and fascinating general business insights with ALW readers.
The First Pit Stop in Chattanooga My dad started in the business in 1964, when he partnered up with Portalet, which was nationwide back then. They wanted to set up a satellite office in Chattanooga. He worked with them for a few years. Then they pulled out, and he bought the inventory from them. He changed the name to Porto Toilet. I started working with him in 1983. At that time, we only had around 100 construction-grade toilets and about 10 for special events. I had been running the company since 1983. I was just out of high school when I came to work for the company and almost immediately took the reins. My dad would come by now and then. Then, I bought the business from him in 1993. continued on page 34

I use an accounting firm for bookkeeping and payroll. The office worker answers phones, does monthly billing, and keeps routes out. My son is still in college, working on his degree in general business administration. He comes in and works part-time, when he’s not in school.
We’re basically in a service industry.
To succeed, the important things are to provide good service and keep the equipment in good shape. Asked about special issues involved in sending his team and equipment into surrounding states, Charlie discusses the requirements and logistics. We have to have dump permits, to operate in Georgia and Alabama. We maintain those permits whether we’re currently doing anything in there or not. We currently service about a 35-mile radius, which includes Cleveland and Dalton Georgia, and every place in between. Especially for construction, we try to stay within the 35 miles, because those accounts require weekly servicing. For special events, we’ll go farther out, because those involve just a delivery and a pick up. The yard guys pick up, and the delivery drivers will do some repairs before they go out. Delivery route guys can also do small repairs on customers’ sites, instead of bringing the units all the

way back in for something minor. I usually clean the restroom trailers myself, to make sure they’re up to my standards. Key Challenges for Pit Stop Management The challenge is keeping the quality of service up as employees come and go. Employees are the biggest challenge. I’ve hired a lot of people through friends and family members of current employees. Charlie commented that, in many cases, when people have got a family member judging them, they do a better job. The Pit Stop owner said he has three people from the same family working for him currently. They’re cousins, uncles, etc.. This offers a helpful alternative perspective for business owners around the industry who worry that hiring family members of current workers might somehow lead to performance issues. Advice for Industry Newcomers from Charlie Hatler, Owner Pit Stop Portables, Chattanooga TN We’ve grown the business by service. We’re basically in a service industry. So, to succeed, the important things are to provide good service and keep the equipment in good shape. We have to keep the trucks in good shape so that we’re not breaking down and missing service. Provide good service — that’s the key. You can charge a little bit more. You might not get them at first, but you can later, if they’re not getting good service. They’ll be willing to pay ten dollars more for a well-serviced unit than for one that’s not being cleaned. If you do a good job, you’ll be alright. We will add here, for new entrepreneurs in the portable restroom rental industry, by any means, follow the example of Charlie Hatler. Respond to your market’s particular needs, as he has uniquely done with Chattanooga’s demand for an upscale appeal in porta potty units for many local events. Recognize stages of scaling during which consolidation may be more advantageous to achieving more robust controls on logistics and costs. Above all, any by any means, fully utilize your critical online marketing resources, as Charlie Hatler has done so effectively for Pit Stop Portables — a preferred provider for the TVA as well as Chattanooga’s events and construction markets.

WE’RE FAMILY.
We’re a family owned business — and have been for over 50 years. This doesn’t mean we’re small or lack vision. And, it sure as heck doesn’t mean we take shortcuts. Rather, being a family owned business means we truly care. It means we are united. It means we have integrity. It means we take pride in our craftmanship — after all, our trucks are our lifeblood. Our custombuilt vacuum trucks are assembled, by our family, with the utmost love and attention to detail. When it comes to reliability, you can’t beat Transway. We think you deserve some family — Don’t you?
CUSTOM BUILT. DRIVEN BY YOU. 314 Lake Avenue N., Hamilton, ON L8E 3A2 | t: 800-263-4508 | e: sales@transwaysystems.com | www.transwaysystems.com
