Member Profile We feature members in Chamber Connection, like Executive Cleaning LLC in Wausau: NAME: Bob Schneider OPENED: January 2012 CHAMBER MEMBER SINCE: 2012 MISSION: To serve our clients with honesty and integrity by providing comprehensive cleaning services, floor refinishing, window cleaning, and Bob Schneider construction clean up in a timely and through manner. We are committed to provide an added personal touch to every facet of our work that provides ultimate satisfaction to our clients and services that are ‘a step above the rest.’ STORY ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS YOU REPEAT THE MOST OFTEN: I started the business in 2012 because I felt clients were not getting the service that they were looking for. I came up with doing business just by a hand shake and not locking our clients into contracts. I was taught that your word meant something and people would respect and want to do business with going back to the ‘old principles.’ Today we are 60 employees strong and doing 1 million in sales. We have been a partner with Cleaning for a Reason since November 2014. We currently are cleaning the homes of nine cancer patients. What we do is offer free cleaning services to people undergoing cancer treatment. This way they can focus on their health while we take care of cleaning their homes at no cost to them.
CHAMBER HIGHLIGHT: One of our highlights is that this past year we did the Chamber’s Business EXPO. It was great to connect with so many people, clients, and businesses. The amount of people that stopped at our booth was unbelievable to me and the connections we made for Cleaning For A Reason were very valuable. OTHER ACCOMPLISHMENTS: We as a company are 1 out of 8 janitorial companies chosen throughout the U.S to test new products that want to be introduced on the market in 2017. We produce data and reports on the products and they go back to manufacturing to make the adjustments. We have seen packaging changes, fragrances, and other things because of our import. We are excited to see how this all will turn out and we can start implementing these new concepts into our company in 2017. BEST RECENT READ BOOK: A really good book I recently read is ‘Business by the Book: The Complete Guide of Biblical Principles for the Workplace’ by Larry Burkett. DREAM JOB WHEN YOU WERE GROWING UP: My dream job was to be an airline pilot. I almost went to pilot school in Florida. FAVORITE SNACK: My favorite snack is salted cashews HIDDEN TALENT: The gift of discernment If you have a member you’d like to see profiled in this monthly feature, contact Brian Otten at botten@ wausauchamber.com.

Wisconsin Metal Manufacturers Alliance found that by 2017, more than 1,600 manufacturing jobs would need to be filled due to retirements and company expansions. To address this issue, the Wausau School District is developing high school manufacturing programs that are high-precision manufacturing learning labs designed to provide students with relevant, real-world experience in high-tech careers in manufacturing and engineering. “To ensure a skilled workforce, education, business and industry, and the community must work together to develop highly-skilled workers to maintain a successful, vibrant economy in central Wisconsin,” said Jon Winter, career and technical education coordinator for the Wausau School District. Greenheck made a $10,000 donation to sponsor the purchase of a 3-D printer for the program. Ten percent of the donation will go toward a scholarship for a student to attend a technical college for manufacturing. “The coming need for highly-trained manufacturing employees is startling. It’s great to see that Greenheck and the Wausau School District have teamed up to address this issue,” said Matt Spink, manager of recruiting at Greenheck. “A manufacturing career can be extremely rewarding.

Marshfield Clinic Health System announced its new ‘Caring for the Chippewa Valley’ plan to build a hospital with attached cancer care on land the Clinic has purchased near its Eau Claire campus. Officials said owning and operating a state-ofthe-art hospital in Eau Claire is an important move that allows the organization to offer the highest level of care locally while gaining more control over the cost and quality of care it has provided in the community for more than two decades. “Data from the Wisconsin Hospital Association shows residents in Eau Claire and the Chippewa Valley face some of the highest health care costs in the state, and building a new hospital puts MCHS in a strong position to start to change that,” said Dr. Susan Turney, CEO. “Our ‘Caring for the Chippewa Valley’ program makes us a truly integrated local health care system.”
