Tom Luciano & DJ Harrington

Everyone knows Tom Luciano, the training specialist from Miller Industries and DJ Harrington, better known as the “Tow Doctor” in the towing industry. When I am the Tow Doctor, I wear a doctor’s coat with EMS inscribed on it. EMS stands for EDUCATE, MOTIVATE, and HAVE A SOLUTION.

Over 10 years ago, Tom Luciano shared with me what he and his friends do for young boys and girls who have no dad so they can still go fishing. When I heard about his passion for giving boys and girls a day of fishing, I just had to write about it. The article was published in the Power Source magazine, a trade publication for the auto recycling industry.

This article explained about Luciano’s desire to help young kids and what a great guy he was that he took in fishing equipment of all kinds. Here’s how Luciano gets that fishing equipment. I mentioned everyone should be checking the back of trucks and trunk of cars for any used fishing equipment. Furthermore, I asked if any was found that it be saved and shipped to my Georgia home. The week after the article ran, I received tackle boxes and assorted floaters. Tom and his friends went to work restoring the equipment. They take kids on the water to fish….sometimes it’s for the very first time.

Affordable Care Act

You have been hearing a lot about the "Affordable Care Act" (ACA)

 

1. How is it going to affect the way I run my business?
2. Is it really affordable?
3. What if I ignore it?
4. How does it affect me and my profit?
5. What are the penalties and fines?

 

The answer to all these questions will be coming over the next few weeks and will give you plenty of time to plan your future. Some of the reasons you want to offer health insurance to your employees are:

 

1. Your competitor’s offer a health plan and some of your employees have quit to work for your competitor.
2. Health Insurance for you and your employees – gives you       “Peace of Mind”

 

Overall – The ACA is going to raise consumer’s prices on groceries, dry cleaning, and every other consumer purchase. My dry cleaner has already raised his prices by 10¢ on shirts and 20¢ on dry cleaning, grocery prices are also raising – Towing & Storage rates will have to increase to cover insurance costs, etc. So, what is the answer?

We can discuss that next.
