A good number of HBA members attended the Social Media class hosted by the Sales & Marketing Council recently. Tess Burns, Gateway Community & Technical College gave her audience information on how to use Social Media

such at FaceBook to connect with potential customers. Items that were discussed were: how to drive people to your page, voice and branding, best practices for posting, why you should post photos, creating a business strategy for posting and much more. The SMC plans to invite Tess back in 2013 so watch your e-mails for our next Social Media Lunch and Learn.

A big “Thank You” to Arrow Title for providing the lunch for this event!

At the heart of every Spike is the spirit of a champion. Like a champion athlete, a Spike strives to achieve his or her personal best with a relentless determination that defies all odds. The greater the challenge, the more a Spike is spurred on to success. Spikes can be competitors, and Spike can be victors, yet they are always allies in the quest to

make our association bigger and better. A Spike is essentially one who recruits and retains HBA members. A huge “Thank You” to all our Spikes for striving to keep the HBA of Northern Kentucky strong.

Pella Impervia Dual-color Option NOW AVAILABLe!

Neither wind nor rain nor sleet or snow stops determined mail carriers. Nor do those elements and other climate extremes phase Pella Corporation’s energy-efficient Pella Impervia line, expanding in the Summer of 2011 to include White interior option for all units.

Pella Impervia windows and patio doors offer more style and design flexibility for your customers. With the new dual-color option, Pella Impervia products can have a White interior with the choice of White, Tan or Brown exterior.

Pella Impervia windows and patio doors arrive pre-finished with a powder-coat paint finish on both interior and exterior. This durable finish stays looking great for years with little care.

“We’re pleased to offer more innovative solutions to builders and homeowners living in areas where a stronger, more durable window is a must,” said Duane Putz, director of sales and marketing for Pella Impervia. “This product is made for hot, cold, wet or windy climates and now it’s available in more styles.”

Pella Impervia can withstand the forces of Mother Nature without cracking, shrinking or warping in extreme weather conditions. The sleek-profiled innovative products made from Duracast®, the strongest most durable material in windows and doors, are virtually maintenance-free and well-suited to today’s busy lifestyles and balanced budgets for home and business owners.* Builders, remodelers and homeowners may choose from convenient factory prefinished brown, white or tan color options and now have a White interior!

For more information, please contact your local Pella representative or call 513-936-5240.

Rethink Construction: EPSC Site Compliance

Join us for SD1’s Annual Contractor/Developer Workshop. At this year’s workshop, we will explore new erosion prevention and sediment control (EPSC) technologies as well as revisit maintenance requirements of many common EPSC best management prac-tices (BMPs). Additionally, we will review storm water pollution prevention plans (SWPPPs) and the type of information required for a complete SWPPP. Com-plete SWPPPs and properly installed and maintained BMPs are essential to protect water quality and maintain compliance with local, state and federal sediment and erosion control regulations.

Who should attend?Site designers, developers, contractors and onsite EPSC representatives are encouraged to attend this workshop. The workshop will provide assistance in understanding the requirements and responsibilities of individuals responsible for the installation and ongoing mainte-nance of EPSC practices.
