The power of flower friendships

 Floret Workshops Scholarships are near and dear to my heart for so many reasons. Earlier this week, I re-connected with two past scholarship recipients as part of a little series of posts about the Floret Scholarship program. Be sure to check out the post that features past winners “then and now” here and also read more about last year’s scholarship recipients and how you can apply. 


Floret Scholarship applications are open now through Monday October 30th at 12 midnight PST. If you haven’t yet applied, don’t delay!

As I reflect back on the North Vancouver Flower Delivery, I am reminded of just how many wonderful friendships and professional relationships that have grown out of these life changing events. As a result, I now have flower friends from all over the world! It is through our workshops that I found most of Team Floret  and also recruited the vast majority of our workshop dream team too.

Today, I’m checking back in with three other past scholarship winners. What’s so special about these three amazing souls is that I first met them as scholarship recipients and through the process they became colleagues and life long friends. The best part is that they each came back to join our workshop dream team and share their incredible gifts with so many of our attendees.

I asked each of them to reflect back on when they first applied for the scholarship and share a little bit about their experience as students in the Floret Workshop. I hope you enjoy their stories.

Getting Started: Step-by-Step Preventive Maintenance Plan

  Step #1: Decide Which Assets Go First On The PM Schedule If this is your first time making a preventive maintenance plan, we suggest that you start by scheduling  preventive maintenance  on your most critical assets. It’s going to be easier to convince higher-ups and see quick results if you start with one or two assets to prove value. Additionally, this will give you and your team some breathing room to adjust and transition into a proactive maintenance mindset and workflow. When trying to determine which assets to select for your preventive maintenance plan, ask yourself the following questions: Which machines are most important to production/organizational success? Is regular maintenance required for this piece of equipment? Are the repair and replacement costs high? You’ll want to select machines that require regular maintenance and have higher replacement/repair costs as this will provide your company with the greatest returns. You’ll also want to steer clear of assets that are

THE CHEAPEST WAY TO PROTECT YOUR VISION

  Eye trauma is on the rise in households, with many incidents leading to life changing injuries or having a long lasting impact. Ninety percent of all household eye injuries are a result of performing chores around the house. This includes lawn care, mowing, weed whacking, hedge trimming, using tools like hammers, drills, saws, or using household cleaning products.* The best way to protect yourself is to purchase and wear a pair of safety glasses. There are so many styles and shapes that you are sure to find a pair that works for you.

SSL-VER­SCHLÜS­SELUNG: BEDEUTUNG DES SSL-ZER­TI­FIKATS FÜR SEO

Hình ảnh
  WARUM BRAUCHT JEDE WEBSITE EIN SSL-ZERTIFIKAT? Internetseiten ohne SSL-Zertifikat haben immer mehr das Nachsehen – nicht nur bei Suchmaschinen, sondern auch bei den Usern. Google hat bereits 2014 offiziell angekündigt, dass die Nutzung eines SSL-Zertifikats für die eigene Website in den Kreis der  Rankingfaktoren  aufgenommen wird. Webinhalte, die über eine verschlüsselte Verbindung ausgeliefert werden, sollen gegenüber Websiten ohne SSL-Verschlüsselung somit einen Vorteil haben. Google wollte damit Websitebetreiber „unter Druck setzen“, endlich auf HTTPS-Verbindungen umzusteigen. Ab Juli 2018 sollen Webseiten ohne Verschlüsselung generell als unsicher markiert werden. Durch dieses Vorgehen will Google die verschlüsselte Datenübertragung im Web fördern und zum gängigen Standard etablieren. Was es mit der SSL-Verschlüsselung auf sich hat und warum Websiten nicht nur des Rankings wegen auf ein SSL-Zertifikat setzen sollten, erfährst du in unserem nachfolgenden bereits dritten SEO Agent
