Game of edges : The analytics revolution and the future of professional sports by

Bruce Schoenfeld

In the last two decades, innovation, data analysis, and technology have driven a tectonic shift in the sports business. Game of Edges is the story of how sports franchises evolved, on and off the field, from raggedly run small businesses into some of the most systematically productive companies around.

In today’s game, everyone from the owners to the marketing staff are using information—data—to give their team an edge. For analysts, an edge is their currency. Figuring out that bunting hurts your offense? That’s an edge. Essential reading for anyone interested in sports, business, or technology, Game of Edges explores a world where winning the game is only the beginning.

It is almost time for my favorite time of year! Fall is just around the corner. I can’t wait for the pumpkin patches, crisp air, corn mazes, fall colors, and pumpkin flavored coffee! It also happens to be some of the busiest times for us as school is back in full session and it is budget time!

The Chamber has a lot of amazing opportunities for businesses to sponsor. As you are creating your budgets, please let us know if you want to be a major sponsor for an upcoming event or possibly take advantage of a higher membership level or advertising opportunities. The great thing about the Chamber of Commerce is we have opportunities for all types of budgets and sizes of businesses.

When you are considering the options, please keep in mind not only does your sponsorship allow us to create an amazing event for the community such as Concerts in the Park, but a higher membership level also allows us to continue to advocate for businesses at a more intense level.

The Chamber of Commerce is a 501c6 private non-profit organization that prioritizes businesses! Everything we do is tied back to creating a strong economy and pro-business climate. We are one of the few organizations that advocate for businesses. I would be happy to sit down with anyone that is interested in the different opportunities as you are setting your budget. I will even buy you a pumpkin flavored coffee.

Between all the craziness of fall, I hope you have an opportunity to enjoy the fall colors and our beautiful community. Happy Fall!

GRANTS PASS DOWNS 2023 FALL RACE MEET

Grants Pass Lemonade Day August 4

The Grants Pass & Josephine County Chamber of Commerce hosted Lemonade Day on August 4th. This year 280 participants signed up for the program. 90 lemonade stands were set up throughout Grants Pass and surrounding areas. This is a free program hosted by the Chamber of Commerce creating the next generation of entrepreneurs. These young entrepreneurs sold their final products on Lemonade Day. The creativity these participants brought was amazing from color changing lemonade to shaved ice, cupcakes, dog toys and more! Prizes were given to the best product and most creative stand. There was also a chance for the public to vote on People’s Choice.

Contest winners:

Best Product (Tie): Aloha Charlie’s Lemonade Stand & Lemon Ladies

Most Creative Stand: Red Mountain Lemonade

People’s Choice: Super Squeezed

Throughout the course of the program, these young entrepreneurs learned how to start, own and operate their own business- a lemonade stand. They learned business skills, financial literacy, goal setting, customer service and teamwork. This experience helps spark an explosion of new confidence in their abilities and a new vision of the possibilities for the future. Participants were also encouraged to spend some, save some for the future and share some with a local non-profit of their choice.

This is an annual event for the Grants Pass & Josephine County Chamber of Commerce. This is the third year to host this event. Thank you to Northwest Community Credit Union for their continued Title Sponsorship. Also, thank you to Grocery Outlet for donating popcicles for the After Party.

The chamber continues to branch out to work with all ages in our community to develop our future leaders.

My first passion in my life has been my children. I have 2 daughters and 2 sons. I have been blessed with six grand kids. I have 4 granddaughters and 2 grandsons, so far.

My second passion in life has been my career. My athletic career directed me to my academic interest, Sports Medicine. After completing my first degree, I took my first real job as an exercise scientist. Eventually, my interests expanded to business management.

I started my management experience as an athletic director, then part of an executive team, then as a business owner running my own Sports Medicine Clinic. As a lifetime learner, I went back to school for my second degree and eventually, a third. I completed my MBA at the University of Notre Dame. This experience would change my life.

Shortly following my graduation, I sold my business and went to work for hospital systems. I operated their wellness centers, serving as their Executive Director.

I ended up working for 4 major hospital systems over the next 15 years. During this time, I was dedicated to transforming our healthcare system from a disease management system to a health creation system. It was during this time I had an epiphany.

I understood that the principles of business management are fundamental to all industries and all business models. I realized that business owners are passionate about their craft, not necessarily the business of running their business. I knew I could provide great value to business owners by teaching them how to balance the craft, with the art of running the business. The business of business.

This epiphany led me to the field of business consulting. Over the next 9 years I worked with many business owners, across many industries. This experience fed my hunger for problem solving and strategic creation and implementation. However, I missed being on the field, part of the team, rather than, on the sidelines, coaching.

This desire to return to the field and becoming part of the team is what fuels my desire to serve and become part of the Grants Pass community.

The Chamber Visitor Center welcomes our new volunteer, Janet Preston!

Janet grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan. In the seventies, she moved to Northern California. Her family soon followed and moved to Lake Tahoe. They enjoyed skiing and the fun things to do in the area.

Throughout Janet’s career, she varied from jobs including secretary, retail, wedding photographer and chef.

Over the years she learned to scuba dive and golf. She has also volunteered at River Valley Church, Humane Society, and Joe’s Place. She enjoys volunteering and learning all about Oregon and making new friends at the Visitor Center.

Janet volunteers every Friday afternoon. Stop in and say hi and pick up some ideas for the weekend.

RVCOG and ODOT were able to secure funding to do a “route study” to analyze the most suitable path for the Greenway between Rogue River and Grants Pass. There are three potential options to be evaluated. One option would be to run the Greenway parallel to Hwy 99 (west side of the river), the second option would run the Greenway parallel to Foothill (east side of the river) and the third option would be to partner with the railroad

and run the path parallel to the railroad, sharing their right-of-way between the two cities. All of the options will likely be presented in detail at the completion of the Route Study. The local jurisdictions will review the completed report along with providing opportuni ties for the public to review the study and give input.

Public involvement is key to the future success of the Greenway. This Route Study is expected to start by the end of this year with a final report by the end of 2024.

Get Involved!

There are many ways you can help. We need volunteers for landscape maintenance, fundraising events, and more.

Contributions can be made in a variety of ways including donated materials, volunteer labor, monetary contributions, and services. Please make a donation today online or via mail.

Every volunteer and dollar makes a difference

Direct Achieves Seventh Consecutive Year on Inc. 5000 List of Fastest Growing Private Companies

Grants

Pass Property Management Software Company, Rentec Direct, is the Only Rural Oregon-based Business to Make the List Every Year Since 2017

GRANTS PASS, Ore., Aug. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Rentec Direct, the industry-leading property management software company, has been named to the annual Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America for seven consecutive years, making it the only rural Oregon-based company to make the list every year since 2017.

With a three-year revenue growth of 85%, Rentec Direct has made the list as one of the most successful independent small businesses. Companies, like Facebook, Chobani, Under Armour, Microsoft, and Patagonia, have gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000. This prestigious list represents the most successful companies in the economy’s independent business segment.

“We are deeply honored to be recognized among so many exceptional companies, both in Oregon and across the United States,” said Nathan Miller, President of Rentec Direct.

“Our continued presence on this list underscores our strength as a small business and our team’s dedication to delivering unparalleled customer service for the thousands of landlords and property manager clients across the US who use our software to run their rental businesses. As a Southern Oregon-based company, we remain committed to giving back to the supportive Oregon community that has been instrumental in our journey.”

The Inc. 5000 class of 2023 represents companies that have driven rapid revenue growth while navigating inflationary pressure, the rising costs of capital, and seemingly intractable hiring challenges. Among this year’s top 500 companies, the average median three-year revenue growth rate ticked up to an astonishing 2,238 percent. In all, this year’s Inc. 5000 companies have added 1,187,266 jobs to the economy over the past three years.

“Running a business has only gotten harder since the end of the pandemic,” says Inc. editor-in-chief Scott Omelianuk. “To make the Inc. 5000—with the fast growth that requires—is truly an accomplishment. Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that are building our future.”
