Tech Entrepreneur Opens Tigard NerdsToGo

Experienced Business Professional Brings Expertise to Tigard Market.

TIGARD, Ore. — NerdsToGo®, a leading provider of IT Solutions for Business and Home, opened a brand new location in Tigard, Oregon. The newest location (12540 SW Main Street, Suite 110) is under the direction of owner and operator Rory Dunnaback.

Dunnaback, along with his father John Dunnaback, opened a Milwaukie NerdsToGo in 2018. A Portland resident, Rory saw a geographical competitive advantage to opening a store in Tigard, which is west of Portland. The Tigard launch serves a growing need in metro areas for tech services as the reliance on such services becomes more important than ever post-pandemic.

“A lot had to do with geography,” he said. The location fits with his marketing strategy and goal of having more exposure with locations east and west of Portland.

The Tigard location offers even greater brand exposure due to the retail storefront and strong downtown community surrounding it. This store location on Tigard’s main street brings great visibility. It’s also the first store in the U.S. to initiate the recent brand refresh. Dunnaback’s first location is in downtown Milwaukie on Main Street–those in the area might have seen the signature yellow Nerd vans around town or have worked with the friendly, approachable Nerds as they help make technology less intimidating.

As local economies begin to come back to main streets, this is great for business and brand recognition in the heart of the downtown area, Dunnaback said.

“I’m really proud to have both of my businesses on main streets,” he said. “It’s very small-town America.” Dunnaback was named Franchisee of the Year and won the Nerdy Award earlier this year, which recognizes an individual that excels in helping customers and employees achieve their full potential.

As a managed service provider, NerdsToGo offers a variety of services for small to medium sized businesses including: Server and PC Monitoring, Data Back-up and Disaster Recovery, Cloud Hosting and Microsoft Office Support. NerdAssure, a proprietary bundle of IT services scaled and priced for small businesses, is created for small companies who don’t have the resources to employ full time IT specialists. Home services tailored to the individual include Computer Repair, Internet trouble-shooting and cybersecurity solutions.

Dunnaback’s interest in opening NerdsToGo began with a desire to open a family business with his dad. Yet, he’s long been involved with IT solutions, as well as the role technology plays in people’s lives since majoring in information technology at Michigan State and then establishing a career in healthcare technology. In addition to operating NerdsToGo franchises, Rory is an involved member of his community, serving as President of the Downtown Milwaukie Business Association.

Rory is also a member of the Westside Professional Business Association that has been around since the late 1970s. He is also on the board of the North Clackamas Chamber of Commerce, a member of the Tigard Chamber of Commerce and a Chair of the North Clackamas Education Foundation.

Dunnaback will host a grand opening celebration and ribbon cutting on May 5th at 2pm.

Right at Home Caregiver Who Saved Client From Texas Snowstorm Recognized as National Caregiver of the Year

Tatyana Stemkovski2022-05-02T09:51:30-04:00May 2nd, 2022|Tags: adults with a disability, in-home companionship, personal care, quality of life for seniors, Right at Home|

Keshia Prejean received the honor as one out of 25,000 caregivers across the Right at Home network, at the company’s national conference.

OMAHA, Neb. — On April 29, 600 cheering representatives of leading in-home care company Right at Home honored Keshia Prejean as 2022 National Caregiver of the Year at the company’s national conference in Glendale, Arizona. Prejean was selected from more than 25,000 caregivers across the Right at Home network for her exemplary commitment to making a difference in the lives of her clients and team members.

Prejean has been with Right at Home for two years, working as a caregiver in the Texas Hill Country for owners Sydney Greenwalt and Terry Darilek. Prejean’s compassion, selflessness and willingness to go above and beyond have made her a valued member of Right at Home and a beloved caregiver for seniors in her community.

Last year, central Texas experienced unprecedented snowfall, including widespread power outages, burst water lines and road closures. But did that stop Prejean from going to work and making a difference? “It didn’t slow her down one bit,” said Greenwalt. “She knew one of our clients was bed bound with no resources and no family. So unbeknownst to us, Keshia flagged down a snowplow driver and had him take her to our client’s home. She weather-proofed the home, tracked down water and walked to the store in the snow to buy food.”

Prejean stayed almost a week with her client, sacrificing the needs of her own family to help someone in need. “EMS and Fire Rescue were unable to access roads during the first few days of the storm,” said Greenwalt. “I’m convinced our client would not have survived without Keshia’s help.”

According to Keysha Friar, Director of Employee Relations at Right at Home Hill Country, Prejean’s generosity isn’t reserved only for her clients. “Keshia doesn’t just help our clients, she is so loving toward her co-workers too,” said Friar. “We recently received a phone call from one of our caregivers who wanted to let us know how wonderful Keshia is. Apparently Keshia found out another caregiver was having transportation issues so she booked and paid for a $75 Uber to take this caregiver to our client’s home. Of course we reimbursed Keshia for this, but she never mentioned it to us and didn’t request reimbursement. That says a lot about who Keshia is.”

National Caregiver of the Year is the highest honor awarded by the Right at Home network. The award is presented annually during the organization’s annual conference.

“Right at Home is so proud and thrilled to honor Keshia Prejean as our 2022 National Caregiver of the Year,” said Margaret Haynes, President and CEO of Right at Home. “The award honors those caregivers who provide extraordinary service to clients every day, and Keshia has definitely illustrated the very essence of the award. She continually lives our mission, ‘To improve the quality of life for those we serve.’ We are so grateful that Keshia is part of Right at Home.”

In addition to honoring Prejean nationally, Right at Home recognized eight caregivers across the country for their outstanding commitment to their clients. This year’s Regional Caregivers of the Year are:

West Region Caregiver of the Year: Maria Castro of Burbank, California
(office owners Leanna and Doug Dickstein)
East Central Region Caregiver of the Year: Candy Palmer of Wilmington, North Carolina (office owner Jennifer Selden)
Northwest Central Region Caregiver of the Year: Marci Meader of Reno, Nevada
(office owners Pete Kuzmich and Shayne Brown)
Mid-Atlantic Region Caregiver of the Year: Sarah Williams of Fairfax, Virginia
(office owner Phill Turner)
Southwest Region Caregiver of the Year: Vodrick Morrison of San Antonio, Texas
(office owners Sloane and Jim Wendell)
Southeast Region Caregiver of the Year: Anice Browning of Little Rock, Arkansas
(office owner Lauren Miller)
Northeast Region Caregiver of the Year: Tanya Todd of Hillsborough, New Jersey
(office owners Janet and Carl Kuebler)
Midwest Region Caregiver of the Year: Larry Sharon of West Des Moines, Iowa
(office owner Raouf Agrignan and operator Christina Richter)

Going the extra mile to provide exceptional care for those in need of at-home assistance often comes down to the small things which make a big difference in a client’s life. Right at Home is proud to recognize the exemplary caregivers within its system whose purpose-driven work betters the lives of those they are entrusted to serve.

ABOUT RIGHT AT HOME:

Founded in 1995, Right at Home offers in-home companionship and personal care to seniors and adults with a disability who want to continue to live independently. Most Right at Home offices are independently owned and operated and directly employ and supervise all caregiving staff, each of whom is thoroughly screened, trained, and bonded/insured prior to entering a client’s home. Right at Home’s global office is based in Omaha, Nebraska, with more than 600 franchise locations in the U.S. and seven other countries.

Leading Boxing Fitness Company Announces Annual “Knockout Stigma” Events at Clubs Nationwide on Saturday, May 21.

SANTA MONICA, Calif. — TITLE Boxing Club, the nation’s leading boxing fitness company, is continuing their fight against mental health stigmas during May’s Mental Health Awareness Month with a “Knockout Stigma” initiative. On Saturday, May 21, 2022, clubs nationwide will host Knockout Stigma classes in-person and digitally on TITLE Boxing Club On Demand.

For every Knockout Stigma class participant who joins in-club or takes a class on their digital platform, as well as at its sister brand BoxUnion’s three studios in Los Angeles, TITLE Boxing Club will donate funds to Bring Change to Mind. Founded by actress and activist Glenn Close, the non-profit is dedicated to raising awareness, understanding, and empathy through campaigns and youth programs that encourage conversations about mental health.

Additionally, TITLE Boxing Club will lead other efforts throughout the month to increase awareness of the importance of mental health and create open dialogue around mental illness. Classes will be led by trainers, many of whom have volunteered to share their personal struggles with a variety of mental illnesses including anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma and more. The Knockout Stigma classes on May 21 are open to all members as well as non-members who can purchase a single class.

TITLE Boxing Club has a history of supporting mental health and creating awareness of the mental and emotional benefits boxing fitness offers – including stress relief, increased focus and supporting brain health.

“One unique aspect of our clubs is we encourage members to bring their baggage to class and take it out on the bag – it’s transformative,” shared Felicia Alexander, Chief Revenue Officer of TITLE Boxing Club and co-founder of BoxUnion Holdings. “Members and franchise partners alike consistently share the positive effects working out in our clubs has had on their mental health and lives overall.”

Alexander knows first-hand the impact mental illness can have, as she experienced it for years as a young adult. In 2019, she took action and publicly shared her battle with depression on social media.

“With each month that passes, I hear from more and more parents about how their children are struggling with anxiety and depression,” added Alexander. “One of the reasons we love partnering with Bring Change to Mind is because we get to help build awareness and create dialogue among students. Over the years, we have built a community within our clubs where all members are welcomed and accepted just as they are.”

“By updating and reimagining our brand identity, NerdsToGo® has an opportunity to stand out in the crowd more than ever, digitally and in person,” said Jim Howe, Brand President of NerdsToGo. “The refinement reinforces NerdsToGo® as an emerging brand in the technology industry. We are positioning the brand for the future while maintaining customer confidence in our Nerds abilities and capabilities which encompass complete business and home IT technology needs.”

NerdsToGo is adding more locations in new territories. They are projected to open over ten additional locations in 2022. “The refinement of our logo and our ‘Nerdy’ character achieves our intent of contemporizing and elevating the brand while retaining the qualities of approachability and tech expertise the brand stands for,” said Jennifer Herskind, Chief Marketing Officer.

The new logo was developed by St. Louis-based advertising agency Rodgers Townsend. The NerdsToGo franchisees were introduced to the new logo and brand refinement while attending the first annual convention in Dallas, Texas, earlier this year. “It was time. Our franchisees were ready for an updated look and feel. Coming out of convention we saw a renewed energy from our franchisees embracing the brand direction and eager to update their locations,” added Herskind.

“The new refinement helps the company be more competitive in the marketplace,” said Rory Dunnaback, NerdsToGo® 2021 Franchisee of the Year award winner and the first adopter of the new brand identity at his newly opened Tigard, Oregon location. “The update to our look helps attract new customers in all technology areas, allowing us to evolve and grow as technological advancements continue.”

Leading commercial cleaning franchise adds over 300 units, reports 20% company-wide growth over previous year.

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. — Anago Cleaning Systems recognized its U.S. and Canadian Master Franchise partners during its annual summit in Washington DC, where the leading commercial cleaning franchise outlined the industry’s “state-of-the-union” within the shadow of our nation’s capital.

The event drew a record crowd of Anago’s Master Franchise operators. The leading commercial cleaning company reviewed the challenges of the previous two years and laid out plans for its continued growth.

Anago CEO and President, Adam Povlitz, reflected on the significant strides of Master Franshise Owners, with 20% system-wide growth from the previous year. Michael Layman, IFA Senior VP, Govt. Relations & Public Affairs, presented The State of Franchising. This included how franchising creates opportunities for generational wealth in underserved communities, equitable pay and benefits (compared to non-franchise small businesses), and franchising’s reputation of paving a safer path to entrepreneurship for all Americans, especially for new entrepreneurs, minority groups, women, and our veteran population.

During the event, company executives recognized industry leaders and presented innovations in technologies across nearly all business sectors while addressing the industry’s newest challenges, including rising inflation costs and the Great Resignation.

“It’s an honor to recognize these fantastic commercial cleaning industry leaders who continue to navigate their communities through interesting economic times and serve their customers daily,” said Povlitz. “Our franchise model is essentially an international network of small business owners within the commercial cleaning industry who are dedicated to their respective communities and very much care for the health of their local economies and the meaning behind entrepreneurial opportunities.”

Anago recognized several territories trailblazing new paths in growth through 2021. Leading the way was Anago of Greater Philadelphia earning the coveted “City of the Year” award for the third consecutive year with $1.3M added revenue over the previous year. Anago of Orange County was honored with the Most Franchises Sold category, while Anago of Austin received the Highest Percent Growth award with a company record for the year of 99%.

Anago inducted an impressive 14 Master Franchisees into the Million-Dollar Club, with each earning at least $1M in revenues. Also recognized are the Multi-Million Dollar Club inductees, which included four territories reaching $2M, eight with $3M in revenues, one with $4M, two earning $5M, and one territory reaching $6M.

Anago Cleaning Systems is a pioneer of the master franchise system, providing valuable assistance, guidance, and critical tools for mid-career professionals to operate their exclusive regional franchises while creating small business opportunities through its unit franchise system.

“Commercial cleaning franchise ownership is on the rise, focusing on strengthening our communities through small business ownership opportunities. As we’ve experienced, home-based and mobile franchise businesses gained national interest as a viable and profitable venture and continue to gain momentum into 2022, especially in underserved communities,” added Povlitz.

Anago Cleaning Systems relies on the brand’s core values to navigate the changing landscape and implement strategies to foster continued growth while implementing new and innovative technologies. Because of this strong business ethic, Anago has been consistently recognized within Entrepreneur’s suite of ranking systems, earning top rankings throughout the past several years and in all the magazine’s main ranking systems. These include fastest-growing franchise, top-ranked franchises under $50K, top home-based franchise, top global franchise, and most recently earning the #34 spot in Entrepreneurs Franchise 500. Anago Cleaning Systems’ continued inclusion within these rankings demonstrates the brand’s rising popularity with both franchisees and customers.
