By: Steve O'Dea, Pacer Solutions Expert It has been too long since I have last posted a blog for you, my trusted blog readers. I will work to get back to a regular schedule of posting articles on a weekly basis. I have a few thoughts I would like to share.First and foremost, pollen is absolutely brutal this time of year in Southwest Florida. Because of our colder than average winter temperatures, it took longer for the oak trees to bloom and when they did all varieties are blooming at one time.…See More

By Steve O’Dea – Pacer Solutions ExpertI would love to talk about college basketball and how the brackets are going to shake out and then subsequently be dismantled by Cinderella State University, the fighting Glass Slippers, but I will leave that to the experts. What I am going to talk about is the scramble to find parts to fix our warm weather equipment in order to be ready for when the warmer weather actually hits. Cabin fever has reached full pandemic in the winter of 2010 and the…See More

By Steve O'Dea - Pacer Solutions ExpertThis seems like a dumb question. Of course competitors cannot be customers because, they compete against us. We need to find people who can purchase our goods and services in order to help them and their business. Why would we help our competitor’s business? After all they are trying to beat us, win our business and grow faster than we are. This is true but if you think about it no two businesses are exactly alike. Maybe there is room to help them and grow…See More

Wouldn’t It Be Great to Have a Tips & Tricks Resource for Everything? By: Steve O’Dea – Pacer Solutions ExpertDuring myweekend warrior battles with either that over grown invasive vine that has overtaken my fence or with that door in the garage that never closes properly I am often in the position to “figure it out” myself. Typically this is not a problem and the jobs I tackle are well within my limited expertise and require more grunt than grey matter. I will however, without fail, find…See More

We have been with boat builders, marine manufacturers, and aftermarket suppliers as our customer base.

By: Steve O'Dea - Pacer Solutions ExpertI ask this question because, well it sure seems like there is something wrong with it. It is sluggish and lethargic and is also so warm that it must have a fever. It is not coughing or anything yet but it is definitely not operating at 100%. Perhaps the gerbils running on the wheel inside of there are not getting enough oxygen, food or water. I know everyone experiences…See More

By Steve O'Dea - Pacer Solutions Expert Well the Prognosticator of Prognostications, Punxsutawney Phil has seen his shadow which means six more weeks of winter. He emerged from his tree stump on Gobbler's Knob and proclaimed his weatherforecast. Don't worry though that we have to deal with more winter, butinstead look to spring. Just because it is still chilly and gloomyoutside doesn't mean you can't prepare…See More

Upon closing our doors today we shall say farewell to 2009 and take a fond look back and think about our successes and our triumphs as well as our trials and defeats. Most people we ask to reminisce about the year have the same passionate feelings: Good Riddance! This past year was one of the toughest for just about anyone, besides those working for repossession companies. As business slowed and jobs were lost, those who kept their jobs needed to work harder with less time and resources. It was…See More

During this (politically correct statement warning) non-denominational wintertime holiday/winter solstice, we are often told that it is the season for giving. Everywhere we turn there is someone ringing a bell, asking for our spare change, and the Salvation Army is a good cause, so chances are we empty our pockets a few times during this season. When shopping for a gift for someone special in our life we will encounter a giving tree, perhaps "Toys For Tots" or another worthy charity that…See More

2009 has been one heck of a year. More than likely, it has been one of the worst economic years in most of our professional lifetimes. Hopefully the worst is behind us. But it has also been a wonderful opportunity to learn about business, economy and how to better handle things if and when the next downturn cycle comes around. Given that, we have so much to be thankful for. We are thankful for our customers and prospects. It is this group of wonderful people who collaborate with us on finding…See More
