Modular Home Offices are Changing the WFH Landscape

Modular offices can be moved at any time as your projects and needs change. They are fast, mobile, and extremely affordable.

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we work and how people use their offices. Working from home has become a way of life, and having access to an office on the go has become increasingly popular in many different types of workforces.

Now more than ever before, people are working from home. Some businesses have scrapped their offices altogether, enforcing a permanent work from home policy, while others are now implementing policies allowing employees to work from home two or three days a week.

Those who have jobs that have them consistently changing locations are also looking for new, more cost-effective options for workspaces, which is why modular home offices are becoming more and more popular. In fact, they are changing the entire work landscape.

Here’s how.

What is a Modular Office?

A modular office is a type of stand alone office that costs significantly less to construct and build than an actual building or office space. They can be built and erected in just a few hours and can be placed in places like your backyard, a construction site, or any other type of setting.

Modular offices are used when someone is in need of a portable office space that can be easily modified. They are built for people or workforces who need office space at temporary locations. They must be built quickly and efficiently to accommodate a workforce’s needs.

Modular offices provide workforces with temporary, quick office spaces for all sorts of different settings and industries. They can be built very quickly – often within just hours. These mobile offices are extremely convenient because of the fact that they can be built much quicker than a conventional office.

Modular Offices Are Extremely Affordable

One of the biggest benefits of a modular office is that they are extremely affordable and cost much less to build than regular office buildings. In fact, they can be built for as low as $40 per square foot, making it a much cheaper option.

Great Temporary Space

Modular offices are great for people who need a temporary office space. They can be easily moved to a different location at just a moment’s notice and they can be used for multiple jobs. They are a great option for people who have workforces that are rapidly changing, such as construction sites. These office spaces can be built and removed based on your own specific needs and are ideal for those who have rapidly changing areas of work. This can save a lot of money in the long run.

Modular offices can be moved at any time as your projects and needs change. They are fast, mobile, and extremely affordable.

Pennsylvania Skill bolsters veterans groups across the commonwealth

Pennsylvania Skill, made up of amusement and gaming small business owners across the state, supports hundreds of veterans organizations through skill game revenue and donations. 

The group, along with Pace-O-Matic, which provides the technology for PA Skill games, believes those who served our country should be honored, and one way to do so is to make sure their organizations are funded.

One recent $5,000 contribution was made to Veterans Promise in Dickinson City in Lackawanna County allowing the group to finish building a large meeting room. Veterans Promise offers an outreach for PTSD, suicide prevention, drug and alcohol education and other support for veterans and their families. Click here for a short video about the organization and how the donation-supported their efforts. 

“It is amazing when a group like Pennsylvania Skill says that what you are doing is important and ‘we want to support you,’” said Dave Ragan, president of Veterans Promise.

Pennsylvania Skill regularly provides donations to veterans organizations. During the last year, it provided $5,000 to the Sellersville American Legion in Bucks County after the group’s building was severely damaged by flooding. A donation of  $10,000 went to Folds of Honor near Pittsburgh that provides scholarships for spouses and children of fallen and disabled service members.  

The organization also assisted the Beech Creek American Legion Post 623 in Clinton County last year with a free takeout meal for veterans on Veterans Day.

“Without the revenue from our PA Skill games we could not have opened our club during the pandemic, said David Grimm, a member of the American Legion. “The games were really a lifesaver for us.”

American Legions and VFWs around the state say they count on the revenue from skill games to keep their doors open, pay their employees and make donations in their communities. Farrell VFW Post 5286 in Mercer County, for example, says it gives away practically all of its skill games revenue to programs in the community. Click here or below to watch a video detailing the support skill games to deliver by the Farrell VFW.

“Pennsylvania Skill is proud we can support those who served in the armed forces,” said Pace-O-Matic President and COO Paul Goldean, a veteran who served as a squad leader in the U.S. Army’s 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment. “Pennsylvania has one of the largest veteran populations in the country and we want to make sure the doors of VFWs, American Legions and places like Veterans Promise stay open.”

Stok, a provider of sustainability and high-performance building services, announces Devon Bertram as Vice President of Sustainability Consulting. Based in the firm’s Denver office, Bertram is a six-year veteran of Stok and services clients across the country. Her transition replaces Jacob Arlein, who was recently named Stok’s Chief Executive Officer.

“We’re tapping Devon’s deep expertise during a pivotal time in the evolution of real estate,” said Arlein. “As organizations evaluate return-to-office strategies, ESG priorities, and the need for impact at scale, Devon’s background and technical knowledge will help companies understand how their real estate presents a significant opportunity to commit to occupant health and wellbeing, act upon climate goals and strengthen brand value. Stok’s team members and clients will benefit from her leadership and guidance, both assets in bringing the real estate industry forward.”

Equipped with almost 15 years of experience, Bertram advises clients on how to define, develop, implement and manage customized sustainability programs and standards for their building portfolios that authentically align with their corporate brand, values and purpose.

She will support the growth and development of the firm’s subject-matter experts and new strategic initiatives that strengthen the company’s commitment to high quality, proactive client service.

Bertram’s people-centric method and collaborative approach to solving complex problems related to building performance and environmental impact involves working with clients to determine areas of material importance, identifying opportunities for improvement, and applying research-based, cost-effective and data-driven solutions. Beyond action planning and program development, Bertram tracks, measures and manages impacts (including energy, water, waste and emissions) of clients’ real estate portfolios to understand baseline performance, establish goals, and implement strategies for ongoing progress.

“The breadth and depth of Stok’s sustainability expertise empowers our clients to establish informed goals and achieve results that address environmental and social needs as well as maximize real estate investments,” said Bertram. “As companies address climate and return-to-office challenges, I’m excited to collaborate with our interdisciplinary subject matter experts to bring impactful and multifaceted solutions to our clients’ ever-evolving needs.”

A recognized leader in her field, Bertram has facilitated over 50 LEED certification projects in the United States and internationally, and she frequently serves as a speaker at industry conferences, including USGBC’s Greenbuild and ILFI’s Health in the Built Environment Summit. Her expertise spans a range of industries and project types, and her list of clients includes Twitter, Delta Dental, Starbucks, Sephora and Subaru.

Have content marketers thrown in the towel?

Typeset releases State of Writing 2021, a global study into writing effectiveness

State of Writing 2021 (second annual report)

Something is clearly wrong in the world of content marketing. According to the findings of a global survey, 70% of content marketers are either not satisfied or only somewhat satisfied with the performance of their written content over the past year. What makes this figure especially alarming is the survey respondents were extremely experienced content marketers – with more than half of the 204 respondents having more than 11 years’ experience in the industry.

That’s the key finding in Typeset’s State of Writing 2021, produced in partnership with Mantis Research.

You can find the full report here: https://typesetcontent.com/blog/state-of-writing-research/

It’s the second year Typeset and Mantis have produced the State of Writing report, which sets out to discover where business communicators – marketers, communications professionals and small-business owners – are experiencing success and where they are falling down in their writing projects. The purpose of the research is to learn what separates the best writers from those experiencing less than satisfactory results and to share these findings with the wider business community for everyone’s benefit.

“The findings this year prove that achieving success with written content is not easy, regardless of how much experience you have,” Sarah Mitchell, co-founder of Typeset says. “The good news is, despite a disruptive year with Covid-19, content marketers say they feel optimistic and energised about the future.”

Other stand-out findings from the research include:

  • Nearly half of content marketers still struggle to know what their audiences want to read
  • Only a third of content marketers are having their copy proofread before publication
  • SEO writing is now the norm for most content marketers, even if they don’t recognise it
  • Content marketers have a real opportunity to improve editorial rigour and leverage the benefits for their brand.

Subscribe to The Write Fit newsletter to receive regular updates from Typeset on writing effectiveness.

Entrepreneurs are Leaving $30k-$100k on the Table Right Now- It’s Time to Find It

Internationally-Recognized Business Success Coach Vanessa Shaw Shares Insight for Entrepreneurs

Most successful entrepreneurs have what it takes to play big: a growing business, a big vision, hunger for more – they’re lifelong learners and action takers. But they also know that they can easily get stuck in the day-to-day weeds, getting in their own ways – and end up being the greatest bottlenecks in their businesses. Here are the top ways even the most successful entrepreneurs are leaving $30k-$100k on the table.

Mindset We all know the importance of mindset, but it’s especially true- and so often overlooked- when it comes to business. We’re not just talking about positivity here, although it certainly plays a role, of course. But in this instance, we’re referring specifically to clarity and confidence.

Entrepreneurs have to be crystal clear on what they offer and how they serve to achieve their greatest success. Why? Because confused people don’t buy. Next comes the confidence- and excitement. You are the only person who can do what you do, the way you do it. And you do it well, with proven results. Stop worrying about what clients can afford. Stop giving away services for free. Stop playing small and own your talents. And while you’re at it, raise your pricing. Did you know that most business owners can increase their rates by 8% with no pushback at all? By making your offers more compelling and exciting, you make it that much easier to hear yes instead of no.

Prospect/Customer Interaction The heart and soul of any business is its customers. Too many entrepreneurs leave this piece of the puzzle to chance, which not only means that there’s money left on the table, but that there’s plenty of unnecessary extra work, too.  The key to scaling your business is in defining and pursuing your IDEAL prospects, and releasing any that are energy-draining and costly. And don’t forget about past prospects who may not have yet found a solution and past clients who may have a new challenge they’re looking to address.

Once you’re working with your ideal clients and not wasting valuable time- and resources- on the wrong ones, the game changes. Why? Because those ideal clients become your greatest assets. They genuinely want to work with you and they know that your success means their success, so they’re willing to help in any way they can. Ask them for introductions- and for their feedback. Both are key to taking your business to the next level.

Personal Connection and Business Practices Successful entrepreneurs know that it’s easier- and seven times cheaper- to keep an existing customer than to get a new one. Sure, a huge factor is the services and solutions you’re offering, but another factor- and one that’s so often overlooked- is your business practices. Simple things like sending correct invoices, on time, and including all the extras that you do, can add up to big results.

In today’s modern age of hustle, many of us rely heavily on impersonal technology to make our lives easier. But at what expense? The single biggest way that business owners are leaving money on the table is by overlooking the incredible impact of human connection. Face to face interactions are 34 times more likely to result in a positive outcome than emails. Knowing that fact, why would we ever miss an opportunity for a personal follow-up with a prospect? Why would we ever submit quotes or proposals digitally rather than presenting them as part of a collaborative conversation establishing value? Converting digital connections into personal ones is key to scaling your business.

We all know that there are so many moving parts to a successful business and that increasing revenue is the bottom line, so leaving money on the table just isn’t an option. But by shifting your mindset, capitalizing on your customer interactions and adjusting your business practices to increase value on human connection, you’ll be surprised at how simple it can be to find the $30k-$100k you didn’t even know you were missing.
