WHAT'S UP DOC?
Hi friends and
colleagues,
WOW, what a week. Last week was like no other week in business. Three clients called
for a total of seven bookings that “went to contract.” Thank you ALL for
spreading the word about “The Safety Doctor.”
Our solid content “peppered
with humor” seems to be what meeting planners and businesses are seeking. As
money becomes tighter and margins slimmer, organizations want a Return on
Investment (ROI) return on
their expenses and not just entertainment. Plus, clients want customized
information and not canned, off-the shelf speeches.
I take pride in working with “the client” to deliver a customized message to
their organization......hey, I don’t want a black Model T's...... 2004 and I want
a customized car and I expect my clients do, too!
So, if you know someone
looking for a safety speaker for his or her next meeting or conference, you
can send them my web address with certainty that they will be pleased with
the result. Please forward our web address
www.TheSafetyDoctor.com or have
them call 407-291-1209.
Again, thanks for spreading the word about us!

| PERSONAL SAFETY TIP
80% of luggage is lost because it was
improperly tagged. Before you leave your luggage with the ticket agent or
sky cab, check to see if the identification tag has the designated 3 letter
code of your final destination. You can find 3 digit city/airport codes on
your ticket or on the internet.

WORKPLACE SAFETY TIP
Help
your production managers and conduct safety training on weeks other than
“end of month” and “end of quarter.” Often times, this is “push time” for
them and they need all the workers “on deck.” They will appreciate your
thoughtfulness and understanding of their situation and be more cooperative
with your safety efforts in the future.
