2739 New Businesses Failed Yesterday, Today, and Will Tomorrow

May 24, 2022 (Global News Distribution) -

8 Simple Steps is on a mission to keep businesses in business.

2739 New Businesses Failed Yesterday, Today, and Will Tomorrow…

8 Simple Steps, a business education firm, instructs, mentors, and empowers entrepreneurs how to simply eliminate the overwhelm, mistakes, and complexity of starting, building, and scaling a profitable and sustainable business so they can prosper, enjoy the journey of entrepreneurship, and not become a statistic.

Maureen Edwards, founder of 8 Simple Steps, award-winning branding, marketing, and business strategist, 2x inventor, and national SCORE speaker, has experienced the entrepreneurial journey 6x’s over.

“I have experienced the good, the really bad, and the elation of entrepreneurship. I know the nuances, challenges, errors, stress, and accomplishments that can only come from doing it, making mistakes, and embracing the journey. I know the possibility of losing it all, including my financial future. But I also know how success can be achieved, and it can be simple to do,” says Maureen.

The Mission is Simple…

With 8 Simple Steps, Maureen is on a mission to impact at least one small business a day who is just starting, struggling, or wants to scale stronger on how to generate revenue, attain profitably, and secure sustainability to reduce the business failure rates. “I share my mess, missteps, and lessons learned. I don’t want any business owner to go through what I did when they don’t have to,” says Maureen.

After building six profitable companies, years analyzing why businesses fail, and understanding and implementing the processes for success, Maureen created two proprietary blueprints for small business owners that are simple to understand and simpler to execute.

The S.T.A.R.T. and V.A.L.U.E. Accelerator Are Not Same Old, Same Old…

Small business owners everywhere now have access on how to build their business to stay in business with simple roadmaps that are cost-effective, outcomes-based, and includes hands-on mentoring.

What makes S.T.A.R.T. and V.A.L.U.E different? “As a mentor, not a coach, I am truly in the trenches with my small business owners. No throwing them a course that tells them why and what they need, then leaving them to figure it out alone. Their success is my success, and success takes us working together,” says Maureen.

With several hundred entrepreneurs participating thus far, Maureen is very clear that not every business is the right fit for the S.T.A.R.T. and V.A.L.U.E. programs. “I curate the right entrepreneurs for the small mentoring sessions, and I am very honest if a business needs to reconsider their business viability. I don’t want them spending money and wasting time on something that may not give them results. That defeats the whole purpose of my mission,” Maureen explains.

Expanding Market: Reon Adds New Range Of Products To Its Amazon List

March 3, 2022 (Global News Distribution) -

A Japan-based company, Reon has launched a new brand of products designed for maintenance of aquariums and home use. 

The company, which is well known for exporting Japanese products, is now looking forward to expanding its reach and customer base by promoting the development of private brands and original products. 

Top in the list of Reon products is the Reon Aquarium Tweezers that come with extra long handles and Stainless Steel for handling aquatic fish plants. 

The tweezers are designed with a tapered tip that is suitable for installing water plants in narrow spaces and also allows one to make the layout they want in the aquarium. 

Besides, it comes in a small size suitable for children and can be used for long without getting tired.

The other product is the Reon Aquatics Plant Weight Anchors, which are designed to prevent water plants from floating and instead give it a straight-up erection.

To use the anchors, all that one needs is to attach the anchor to the base of the water plant, pick it up with tweezers, and insert it into the soil. 

This prevents the plant from floating up and holds it firmly in place as if it were rooted in the soil, eliminating the stress of water currents and shrimp messing with the plant.

Apart from preventing the water plant from floating, the anchor contains nutrients that the water plants need after they are planted. 

This helps the plant by acting as a temporary root for until it grows roots, preventing it from floating away due to buoyancy and water flow, while providing the water plant with the nutrients it needs.

Third in the latest list of Reon products is the Reon Hand Pump Bottle which comes with a dispenser to ensure you achieve maximum cleanliness by not having to bend it over for liquid supply. 

The bottle can be used conveniently without transferring germs from one person to another and is easy to use by both adults and children. 

It has a push part, which is used to supply the liquid to both the nozzle and the push part; hence one is able to maintain their hands clean without the struggle of opening and closing the bottle.

The bottle was designed in the middle of the pandemic and can be used anywhere, be it at home or in supermarkets where so many people run the risk of transferring bacteria to one another when they open and close the same bottle.

The fourth latest product by the Japan-based company is the Reon Aquarium Purifier Rock Stone Décor. 

To achieve its high quality status, the stone is handmade by powdering the raw material of “Senmai-stone”, a high-grade natural stone from Japan, which was formed through repeated decomposition and condensation over hundreds of millions of years.

Before using the stone, it is recommended that one rinse it slightly with water and putting it in a tank to make the water suitable for keeping goldfish and shrimp. 

The recommended amount is one per 10 to 20 liters (338 to 676 Floz)of water.”

Sekikawa Tatami Brand Launches New Line Of Products For Carrying Small Items

March 3, 2022 (Global News Distribution) -

In its effort to maximize customer reach and expand its market, Sekikawa Tatami  has resorted to expanding its product portfolio with the latest products added to its Amazon listing.

The new Sekikawa products are specifically designed for carrying small items while traveling or even when on a walk. 

The products are made from original Japanese materials, giving them an authentic feeling and an international image that is in line with its policy of promoting the development of original brands. 

Top in the list of the Sekikawa brand is the mini wallet dubbed the daruma doll coin purse. The purse is designed with woven fabric unlike the printed patterns that are common in purses. 

For protection of content in the purse, the maker designed a stiff zipper that holds the both sides of the purse firmly in place. 

The coin case has a daruma pattern. Daruma is commonly regarded in Japanese society as both a good-luck charm and a constant reminder of one’s goals.

Besides, the long lasting fabric gives its durability and the zipper opens widely, making it easy to take items out of the purse without any struggle.

The other interesting item that has been added to the Sekikawa brand is the travel cosmetic pouch organizer that is designed to help in carrying makeup tools when traveling. 

The cosmetic pouch organizer is very common among Japanese women and is mostly used to carry a series of makeup assortments. 

The bag comes with small compartments that help one organize the content in a professional manner. 

Besides, the woven fabric is stiff yet pliable, so it does not lose its shape when filled with stuff and fits the contents of the pouch. 

Silvery Japanese kanji (chinese characters) are embroidered on the black fabric. These kanji represent the names of fish. It is a stylish and cool design.

It is durable and looks good because of the fabric on the inside. The zipper opens wide, making it easy to see and take out the contents.

 It goes at a market price of $32 for every unit and can be used to many parts of the world.

The third item in the Sekikawa list is the Sekikawa Pattern of Waves in Blue Ocean pen case that is designed with a rather unique material that gives an authentic feeling of beauty and safety at the same time. 

It is made of the Seigaiha(waves in blue ocean ), a traditional Japanese pattern that reminds us of the blessings of the wide ocean, and the infinite pattern of the waves is a good omen for happiness that will last forever, and a wish for a peaceful life for people.

The woven fabric is stiff yet pliable, so it does not lose its shape when filled with pens, and fits the contents of the pen case. It has a zipper that holds both sides of the case tightly and ensures you don’t drop any of your items when packing or unpacking your pens. 

It’s currently available in the market at $30.00 and ships around the world.

Cattlemen’s Coffee House in Franklinton, Louisiana Holds Grand Opening Celebrations with Support from Crimson Cup’s 7 Steps to Success Coffee Shop Startup Program

February 25, 2022 (Global News Distribution) -

Cattlemen’s Coffee House in Franklinton, Louisiana held Grand Opening celebrations on February 8, supported by coffee shop startup consultants from Crimson Cup Coffee & Tea. The shop at 1809 Main Street joined hundreds of coffee shops in 30 states that receive coffee, training and ongoing support from the award-winning coffee roaster’s 7 Steps to Success program.

On February 8, Washington Parish coffee lovers gathered at Cattlemen’s Coffee House in Franklinton, Louisiana to celebrate the grand opening of the independent coffee shop at 1809 Main Street. A $1 special on all espresso-based drinks attracted new customers.

“Thank you to our amazing customers for showing up today and to our staff that rocked the house!” said Owners Schantell and Lane Russell. “God blessed us with a good day, and for that we are so thankful! We look forward to serving our community for years to come.”

The Russells and their team learned how to open a coffee shop through the 7 Steps to Success coffee shop startup program of Crimson Cup Coffee & Tea, an award-winning coffee roaster based in Columbus, Ohio.

7 Steps Customer Growth Rep Heather Ciranna attended the grand opening to help ensure a successful event.

“Warm congratulations to Schantell and her team!” she said. “We had a fantastic time at their Grand Opening celebration, and we’re honored to be a part of the great impact they’re making on their community.”

In developing their independent coffee shop, Schantell and Lane sought to bring their local community together over terrific coffee. The shop also pays tribute to generations of cattlemen in Washington Parish.

“Coffee makes people happy and brings people together,” Schantell said. “Also, farming and cattle ranching have played a huge role in my family’s heritage through four generations: my great-grandparents, grandparents, parents and finally, us.”

Although they love coffee, the couple had no experience in running a coffee shop.

Lane’s career has been in offshore and international oil drilling. Schantell has worked as a nurse in neurology and pain management.

She stayed with her cousin in Baton Rouge while attending nursing school. “I went to a coffee shop called Charlies that had a great environment,” she recalled. “We wanted to bring something like that to our community.”

A search for support led to Crimson Cup’s 7 Steps to Success coffee shop startup program.

Based on Seven Steps to Success: a Common-sense Guide to Succeed in Specialty Coffee by Founder and President Greg Ubert, the 7-Steps program has helped open over 300 independent coffee shops in 30 states.

“We’re excited to welcome Schantell and Lane to the Crimson Cup community,” Ubert said. “We look forward to helping them grow their business in the months and years to come.”

A one-stop shop for independent coffee shops, Crimson Cup supplies award-winning coffee, coffee business expertise, hands-on training and industry-leading coffee shop supplies.

Seven Steps coffee shop startup consultants guide new owners through every step – from finding a location and writing a strong coffee shop business plan to laying out the shop, training staff and more.

“I had no idea what I was getting myself into,” Schantell said. “After discussing franchising options with other roasters, Crimson Cup almost sounded too good to be true.”

“But it truly is as good as it sounds. The one-on-one relationships throughout the entire process ensured I was never left to struggle on my own,” she added. “The 7 Steps team was always available for questions and support. They’re awesome!”

She found Step Two, Focus on Efficiency Of Equipment Layout, the most valuable. “My coffee house is in a unique location, so the help with making it as efficient as possible was really helpful,” she said. “The book is still in my office, and I refer to it all the time.”

She had this advice for others who are considering opening their own coffee shops: “Don’t try to do this on your own. Don’t think that Crimson Cup is too good to be true; they really are so helpful throughout the process.”

The new coffee shop serves a full menu of hot, iced and frozen espresso drinks – including mochas, lattes and cappuccinos – as well as iced coffee and tea, cold-brewed coffee, hot chocolate, fruit smoothies and organic infused teas. Orders can be placed in shop or through a mobile ordering app.

The coffee, roasted by Crimson Cup, is winning 5-star reviews from local coffee drinkers.

“The coffee is the best coffee I’ve ever had,” said one Facebook reviewer.

The roaster’s exceptional craft and specialty coffees have earned top industry honors, including Good Food Awards, Golden Bean North America, and Roast magazine’s Roaster of the Year.

The signature drink is the Cattlemen’s Mocha, which melds white chocolate, caramel and steamed milk with an espresso base. It can be served hot, frozen or over ice.

The Russells invite everyone in Franklinton and Washington Parish to visit Cattleman’s Coffee House at 1809 Main Street, inside the new Forshag’s Drugstore across from Riverside Medical Center.

“We designed our coffee shop to give special meaning to our community and its heritage,” Schantell said. “Cattlemen nowadays are not recognized for their perseverance.”
