SMALL BUSINESS
Cheating on sleep can cost your business “There are not enough hours in the day.” Virtually every small business owner and entrepreneur laments, like I do, that there’s not enough time to complete everything we have to do. So, we stay up late, get up early. We try to gain extra hours by cheating our sleep. But we may be cheating ourselves and our businesses. Because, it turns out, getting a good night’s sleep may be a secret to small-business success. Most of us don’t think so. We view sleep as something optional. But in reality, fewer than 5 percent of people can perform well on only a few hours of sleep a night. The rest of us need seven to eight hours every night. Entrepreneurs and RHONDA small-business owners ABRAMS need to be able to think clearly. We make decisions and solve problems, deal with people, try to be creative. We need the energy to put in a full day’s work.
‘High-level brain regions’
“What we have discovered is that high-level brain regions required for complex judgments and decisions become blunted by a lack of sleep,” Matthew Walker, said in the newsletter SciTechDaily. Walker, who heads the Sleep and Neuroimaging Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley, explained that sleep acts as a storage function for all the information we gather during the day, clearing the way for us to start learning and processing new information. Recent studies indicate a lack of sufficient nightly sleep is correlated with: » Impaired short-term memory » Impaired decision-making » Decreased creativity » Weakened immune system and greater susceptibility to illness » Obesity » Depression » Increased likelihood of developing Alzheimer’s » Increased likelihood of developing cardiovascular disease
Travel issues
When we don’t sleep enough, we suffer. And our businesses suffer

along with us. As difficult as it is to get enough sleep when you’re in your regular routine, it’s much harder when you’re traveling. You may be in a different time zone; you eat at irregular hours; you’re in unfamiliar surroundings. One hotel is trying to address this problem with science. “If you’re on a business trip, you want to be at your best,” said Fiona Harris, international director of public relations for Corinthia Hotels. “That night’s sleep is the most important thing in determining whether you’ll have a great day. So we said, ‘Let’s put science behind this.’ ” The Corinthia made improving the quality of their guests’ sleep a major company initiative. Working with Dr. Guy Meadows, head of the United Kingdom’s “Sleep School,” and nutritionist Jeannette Hyde, they identified key components of good sleep. They even created a “Sleep Retreat” at their London property, including special menus, massages and optional one-on-one sleep consultations with Meadows.
Tips for sleep time
You don’t have to go to London to apply some of the techniques to get better sleep and be on your game when running your business. Here are some tips to improving your slumber: » Eat protein at every meal. One surprising thing Corinthia’s Harris discovered is that a lack of protein is
often associated with sleep problems. » Eat foods rich in the amino acid tryptophan, especially during the last meal of the day. Tryptophan increases the production of the sleep hormone melatonin. (Turkey, for example, is high in tryptophan, and it’s one reason we’re all sleepy after Thanksgiving dinner.) » Forget that nightcap. Unless it’s warm milk, that is. A nice shot of brandy may make you drowsy, but impairs sleep quality. The Corinthia serves warm milk and a pumpkinseed cookie (which is high in tryptophan) at bedtime. » Stop using blue light-emitting devices early in the evening. Electronic devices, such as smartphones, computers and e-readers reduce melatonin, decreasing sleep quality. » Establish a regular bedtime routine. Go to bed at a certain time, read a physical (not electronic) book, and then turn out the lights. » Exercise early in the day. Getting enough exercise helps you sleep well, but not if it’s done at night. It’s tough to convince yourself that going to bed early and getting a full — and good — night’s sleep is critical to your small business success. But science shows it is.

Susan Isaacs is a gardener who continually cultivates Richmond to produce new opportunities for the city and its residents. She grows readers by getting almost-free kids’ books to give away at every opportunity. She produces new ideas by the bucket load, hoping some of them will reap a harvest of new opportunities for the community. As Wayne Township trustee, she’s found fertile ground for programs that help her clients enjoy more secure lives. Her weekly schedule would exhaust many, but it is bread and meat for Isaacs. Township trustees in some communities have uncaring reputations. Why did you want this job? I never set out to do this, but I love my job. I was appointed to fill a vacancy five years ago and then nobody ran. I’ve always loved doing things for the community and helping people. I really love it and I have a wonderful staff. There are a lot of things that trustees across the state are doing that we’d like to do, but being in the county administration building limits that. It’s difficult to do things in the evening because the building is closed. When our lease is up, we hope to have a place where we can expand what we can do. Sprout of Control, which has created several community vegetable gardens in the city, is a program you helped begin. What does it mean for Richmond residents? Most low-income residents can’t afford fresh produce. Growing produce was a way for them to have access to fresh food and take ownership of the project and work together. Getting to know each other can transform a community. I’m not involved now, but this year, Sprout won a $1,400 grant to build raised beds so senior citizens can garden. It’s going to be in place at the Leland Legacy by summer. I hope we can get gardens throughout the city. What other community-building projects do you support? The Laundry Project, a day when people can do their wash at the Laundromat for free, is a great project. We also provide socks and under-

CONTACT INFORMATION » The Wayne Township Trustee’s Office is in the county administration building, 401 E. Main St., Richmond. Learn more at waynetownshiptrustee.com or (765) 973-9392. » The Grassroots Action Center at 819 E. Main St., Richmond, is designed to empower area residents to meaningfully impact their community.

wear for kids on that day. If you can’t do your laundry, it’s a big deal. We have kids going to school with crusty socks. It’s sad. And every kid who comes gets a book through the First Book organization. When I get a hug from a little boy or girl, it makes my day. Do you have other community projects in the works? I’m proud of the Grassroots Action Resource Center, which helps
small, non-profit organizations improve their efforts. There’s information on funding, volunteers, liability and other issues. We use Earlham students to do research and design programs. The center also provides meeting space for non-profits. The Innovation Station on Main Street is a wonderful development downtown. It helps people who have an idea, things like how to make the city
more beautiful, more livable. We’re focused on $500 projects. We hope to have a half-day workshop soon for $500 projects. These ideas are an important piece in improving our corner of the world. In a year or two, you won’t recognize downtown. Women’s issues also are important to you. How are those being addressed? The Wayne County Foundation’s Women’s Fund is already helping the Laundry Project and JACY House (a program of the Children’s Justice and Advocacy Center) and some others, but we’re looking at something more impactful, like a women’s center. It’s a pressing issue. The lack of a homeless shelter for women and children is a problem. There’s a need for transitional housing, from poverty to independence. We want to bring together the people who are working in these areas and fill any gaps. There are a lot of great women in the community who are interested in this. How have you helped clients of the trustee’s office? We try to do things that make lasting change. We have programs on managing money. My degree is in accounting, so we work together. They bring me the whole ugly mess of bills and we sort through it. I often tell them they have to pay certain bills or I can’t help them. But when they can see the light at the end of the tunnel, it’s a terrific relief for them. I think it helps that I know Richmond. I grew up on Randolph Street. My dad worked factory jobs, but we never thought we were poor. What was your first job? I was a waitress at Pizza King, the one that was under the bridge on Main Street. Within a year, I was the manager. I managed a lot of restaurants. I came back here after 15 years and finished my accounting degree. I went to work in a CPA firm and I was the most talk-able person there. What do accounts do all day? They look at numbers! I love to talk to people and I wanted to be involved in the community. Life is what you make it. I think this is a great community. There are some cool people who live here and a lot of strong women.
SUMMER PROJECTS
Chamber Center for Excellence will help improve community ativity and artistry. They help put us on the map, drive business and improve the quality of life.” The Centerville Playground project will raise funds to provide a playground that is welcoming, safe, and fun for families in the Wayne County community by replacing the current equipment. Playgrounds allow children to grow and develop physically and cognitively as they refine their motor skills, coordination and skills related to social interaction. Additionally, playgrounds encourage children to maintain an active lifestyle because they learn to associate joy with exercise and activity. These benefits significantly impact the health and quality of life children experience in the Centerville and Wayne County community. Denise Lanman, director of education and events at the Chamber, said, “We are really excited about the impact that the Centerville Playground Project will have on the community. It benefits not only the residents of Centerville, but the whole county by providing another public park for everyone to enjoy.” The Chamber Center for Excellence is currently accepting donations for the new Centerville playJOSHUA SMITH/PALLADIUM-ITEM ground equipment.

This summer, the Wayne County Area Chamber of Commerce will use the Chamber Center for Excellence to facilitate unique community improvement. Two projects, the Festival of Murals 2015 and the Centerville Playground Project, will set the stage for future opportunities relating to the Center. Amy Holthouse, president and CEO of the Chamber, said, “I am really excited to use the Chamber Center for Excellence in new ways for proTREVOR grams like the Festival OAKERSON of Murals and the Centerville Playground Project. These initiatives show that we are moving forward as an organization, that we are really working to make the community better.” The Festival of Murals 2015 will be a series of art activities, with the headlining event being a juried mural competition. For this competition, about 10 artists will be selected to paint murals on pre-selected walls throughout Wayne County during June, July and August. This will allow the community to experience the creation of these public works of art firsthand. Other activities may include artist receptions, mural tours and public voting for additional awards. The Festival of Murals is a program being produced by the Festival of the Arts, hosted by the Wayne County Chamber of Excellence and sponsored in part by the Wayne County Tourism Bureau, Richmond Historic Depot District and Richmond Furniture Gallery. The program began in 2010 and 24 public works of art have been created thus far throughout Wayne County, Indiana. Natalie Richert-Sumner, board chair of the Chamber, said, “The Festival of Murals is really a lasting investment in the community.

“I think people just like being outdoors,” Alexander said. “I know I do. My wife and I often look, when we go out, for a place where we can sit outside and eat and have a drink.” The Richmond area has followed a national trend of expanded outdoor dining, with more than 20 area locations available in the warm weather months, that have been developed during the past 10 years. About 15 years ago, other than picnic-style seating outside some fast-food restaurants, the only outdoor dining option offered was at the Olde Richmond Inn. Olde Richmond Inn owner Galo Molina has shown he values that option in a restaurant. Each of his other eateries — 5th Street Coffee and Bagels, Galo’s Italian Grill and Ainsley’s Café overlooking Brookville Lake — each offers some version of outdoor seating. Eleven years ago when Chuck Wellings opened Wellings Steakhouse and Chuck’s Sports Bar at 1500 N. E St., his elevated patio seating became the second outdoor dining option in town. And it was, and it remains, the only restaurant with a sand volleyball court and leagues. Wellings said spending time in Florida, where outdoor dining is more common, gave him inspiration for his patio area. “In the summer time, it’s really good,” Wellings said.
The past two summers have seen a bit of decline in attendance and use, Wellings said, because the weather has been cooler and gasoline prices higher. This year, he expect to see a turnaround. “When it’s warm, it really makes a difference,” Welling said. Still, the patio is a popular area for class reunions and get-togethers, and it’s great for those who want to watch the sand leagues. “A lot of families come and sit upstairs at the other end to watch the volleyball,” Wellings said. No matter the weather or gas prices, volleyball remains a popular attraction. He said the restaurant has been fielding calls for some time now from people asking when the leagues will begin. The official start date, Wellings said, is May 13, with league games on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

SUMMER PROJECTS
www.pal-item.com § Maximum Business §Palladium-Item Media Group, APRIL/MAY 2015
Grow your business this summer with marketing tips that won’t break the bank Warm weather is finally here. Consider some ideas to incorporate the summer season into your marketing plans. Whether it’s a busy or quiet time for your business, here are some things you can do to take advantage of the summer months.
Take your business into the fresh air
Don’t wait for your customers to come to you; look for ways to get in front of them. Whether you run a retail store, restaurant or provide a service to customers, consider the following: » Take Part in Local Markets, Events and Fairs — What better SHARON way to win new busiHARVEY ness? » Take Your Food Business on the Road — If you are in the food business, taking a concession stand on the road is a great way to earn money and give new customers a taste of what you have to offer.
Offer a themed week or day
Like restaurant week or Small Business Saturday, think of ways to really showcase what your business does for one week or one-day only. You could even partner up with complementary businesses or those in the same district as you and co-market each other’s products, services and specials with fliers, coupons and teasers. Try to come up with a theme and weave it into your marketing and advertising.
Give back to the community
.
8
Community projects are a great way to build your brand and give back to the community. Why not organize or sponsor a community service day or charitable event? Pick a cause that’s a good fit for your business and reach out to the media, in addition to your own marketing, to publicize it. You can also deduct certain expenses related to any volunteer work or charitable giving.
Summer-ize your marketing activities From your website to your email newsletter, look for ways to incorporate summer themes and information that are relevant to your customers. Send out newsletters that showcase your summer specials, but mix it up with good content—summer fashion tips, recipes, or pet care in the heat.
Drum up business with promotions
If summer is a slow season for your business, consider offering financial incentives to increase foot traffic. Don’t just dive in with a wholesale across-the-board discount; instead, consider some of the following options: » Discount Certain Products and Services —Test the market to see if you can shift slower selling products with a limited-time discount (say, for the month of July). Promote your offer to a select segment of your email list, perhaps those who haven’t purchased from you for some time. Monitor the results. If the offer works, then consider extending it to other products and consumers next month. » Package Promotions – Offer a discount if customers buy more than one product or service. For example, buy a coffee and a doughnut for $3.50 instead of $5. » Off-Peak Specials — Many people have more flexible schedules during the summer months. Consider ways to draw people in during your off-peak hours, whether it’s a timebound discount or another incentive (free corkage, bring a friend for half price, or a free consultation). Sharon Harvey is public affairs specialist for the U.S. Small Business Administration office in Indianapolis.

Those attending the Power of Pink Pajama Party, organized by Richmond Kroger employees to benefit the Susan G. Komen Foundation, fill their plates from a buffet during the fifth annual event.
Kroger’s pajama party helps fight cancer For the fifth year, the staff of the Richmond Kroger made a special effort to raise money for the Susan G. Komen Foundation. The Kroger Co. has been a sponsor of the Central Indiana Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure since its inception. The Richmond Kroger raises an extra donation through its annual Power of Pink Pajama Party, which was April 11 at Forest Hills Country Club in Richmond. This year’s event raised about $4,600, about $400 more than in 2014. During the event, guests — most clad in pink PJs — were treated to food; a wine tasting; an array of pampering services such as manicures, facials and massages; opportunities to do cake decorating and flower arranging; games such as bingo and a cake walk; and a silent auction. Part of the Richmond store’s inspiration for its Power of Pink event is store manager Natalie Lucas, who is a breast cancer survivor.

Lemonade Day is set for May 17 around Wayne County. Participants are asked to register soon for the event. They are encouraged to learn about entrepreneurship and leading up to Lemonade Day. And the day isn’t just about lemonade. Last year, kids sold everything from chips, cookies and cupcakes to jewelry to increase their profits. Participants are asked to give a portion of proceeds to a charity. Lemonade Day has become a national educational effort. The idea was developed by Richmond High School grad Michael Holthouse, a technology entrepreneur who is determined to see children build character, savvy and responsibility that are part of good business practice.
