IT’S TIME TO REGAIN THE CONFIDENCE YOUR NATURAL TEETH ONCE PROVIDED Would you be surprised if I told you there is a new procedure that can give you a complete set of fixed teeth in one day?

This is a new teeth replacement technique By G. Sroujieh, capable of giving DDS, AFAAID patients who are suffering from bad, nonsavable teeth or who have been wearing dentures for a long time a beautiful set of teeth

in one day.

With this technique we will be able to use four special implants to attach a new set of permanent teeth. In most cases, patients lacking the minimum amount of bone required to support regular dental implants, and who have been told that they were not candidates for implants, will enjoy the benefit of this technique since it requires less bone volume and does not require either bone or soft tissue grafting.

The “Teeth in One Day” technique is a new implant procedure that was originally developed to help people with severe bone loss in the posterior area of the jaws. This

technique offers the solution of fixed teeth for patients who until now have had no other option than wearing uncomfortable dentures.

Patients usually leave with entire arches of fixed teeth on the same day of their surgery.

replace it with a permanent strong natural looking one.

In the few months following the surgery, known as the healing phase, implants will go through osseointegration, meaning new bone will form around the implants and make a biological bond with them. During this period the patient will be using their new fixed teeth eating and speaking normally.

Three to six months after the surgery, a permanent new set of teeth will be made and attached to the implants.

The benefits of this technique: - Ideal solution for patients with poor bone volume - Fewer implants can be used, lowering the cost and easier to clean - Boost in self-esteem - Fixed teeth in one day, no need for removal at night or after meals for cleaning - Fully restored sense of taste - Ability to eat all of your favorite food - No more messy adhesive So if you are tired of wearing loose dentures, Teeth in One Day solution will solve your eating and pronunciation problems. You will never have to experience the crippling effect of eating on moving plates, the embarrassment of dentures slipping during speech, messy adhesive, removing teeth at night, or not being able to enjoy eating and tasting food.

With this technique at Dr. Sroujieh’s dental office, we can restore your smile and give you permanent teeth in just one day.

Say goodbye to dentures forever!

How does it work?

Before considering this technique, it is necessary to have your case evaluated by Dr. Sroujieh.

During the initial consultation, we will listen to your concerns and offer you solutions based on your specific problems or needs. A clinical exam will be done and X-rays will be taken. Also, we will need a 3D CT SCAN for your jaws so we can plan your dental surgery virtually on the computer using special software.

Impressions or molds will be taken also at that visit to fabricate the new set of teeth in our lab.

On the day of the surgery, the remaining teeth, if any, will be removed. Four dental implants will be placed and a customized non-removable prosthetic bridge will be attached to the implants. This fixed set of teeth will be used for 3-6 months, after that we will

editor’s note

Looking Up

I

t seems everybody has their own impression of where the Scottsdale Airpark begins and ends. This magazine draws the “Greater” boundaries at Pinnacle Peak and Doubletree roads and 64th and 110th streets, but there’s another definition.

Tying this community together is the shared air space above—the wild blue populated by a host of aircraft heading to and from Scottsdale Airport. Even if you’ve never set foot in the facility, the spirit of aviation permeates the Airpark, which has burgeoned around its namesake airport since the city acquired it in 1966.

After five years of working in the Airpark, I never tire of the sight of helicopters, private jets and studentpiloted Cessnas overhead, the quick roar of chartered business jets ferrying dealmakers, and visits to the unique hangar/office spaces peppering our airport neighborhoods.

Now that fall and the holiday season have arrived, many hangars are doubling as venues for fundraisers and networking parties— and hanging out in a hangar is just plain cool. If you haven’t taken the opportunity yet to attend a Scottsdale hangar event, we highly recommend it. Just last month, Fox & Fin invited readers to its November mixer in the group’s hangar space behind the offices (that’s me, checking out one of the aircraft on display).

Make it a point this December to get to know a little bit more about the business and pleasures of our area’s aeronautical heritage.

TPC Scottsdale, host of the Waste Management Phoenix Open, has completed $15 million in renovations to the Stadium Course ($10.5 million), clubhouse, meeting space and restaurant, reports AZCentral.com. Dramatic white sand in the traps, 250-plus trees, new green locations on four holes, and fairway and green modification on hole 13 are among the improvements. Latin Americantheme Toro replaces the Grill at TPC; overlooking the 18th green, the restaurant is run by the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess. Scottsdale began the renovations in April. Scottsdale issued debt to pay for the project, with debt service to be paid by revenues from the city’s hotel-bed tax collections, as well as a temporary increase in the TPC’s annual operations fee, which is paid to the city.

HOLIDAY

SPILLS & STAINS Q : The holidays are near and I have beautiful table linens! I know I run the risk of food and other spills. Should I attempt to treat them immediately on my own or will I be making the stain worse?

A: Leave it to the professionals. Even wax is no problem.

Bringing the item in as soon as possible helps, as time will set stains.

Washing household items at home can have disappointing results. Prestige Cleaners knows how to maintain the shape of your tablecloths and other household linens.

Third-quarter market figures show the Scottsdale Airpark commercial real estate market continues to improve, reported Craig Trbovich, a commercial real estate broker with Commercial Properties Inc. (CPI), specializing in investment sales and tenant/landlord representation in the Phoenix and Scottsdale submarkets. Office market vacancy, once at nearly 28 percent, is down to 16.6 percent, and the average asking rate is up approximately 10 percent over the past two years. The industrial market vacancy rate has improved from 21.4 percent in 2010 to 8.4 percent currently. Also the average asking lease rate is up 16 percent over a year ago. “One thing that has not returned to the market is new industrial construction, but with lease rates rising and vacancy rates moving lower, new development may be just around the corner,” said Trbovich.

Sign Gregory Gibson, general manager of Signature Flight Support’s Scottsdale FBO, watches from the company hangar as a Gulfstream jet taxies to meet waiting ground crew.

18 | Scottsdale Airpark News December 2014

gnature Style World’s-largest FBO operator swoops into Scottsdale

By Kimberly Hundley Photos by Sam Nalven

O

n this blustery day, the ground crew are wrapped in neon yellow windbreakers as they silently wait for the Gulfstream’s engine roar to quiet after touchdown.

The private jet taxies to the apron behind Signature Flight Support, and ground crew members spring into action, securing tires, clambering up to retrieve two pieces of luggage from a rear compartment, driving the passenger’s Jeep to the foot of stairs unfolding from the cabin. A ponytailed woman in jodhpurs and riding boots disembarks and double checks the bags already placed in her vehicle. She slides behind the wheel and drives through the security gate gliding open 30 feet away.

Later, the pilots will refresh themselves in Signature’s private terminal, perhaps taking advantage of the individual sleeping rooms, and crew will refuel the jet and tow it to a secure hangar space.

Gregory Gibson, general manager, looks on with delight. A true aerophile, he can’t hide the pleasure he takes in overseeing every aspect of Scottsdale’s newest FBO, or fixed-based operator.

The term “FBO” doesn’t come up often in conversations among coach-class travelers flying commercial airlines.

But to bona fide jet-setters, it’s as familiar as “service station.” When private jets land at an airport, they need services and infrastructure unless they’re working through a management/charter company, such as Pinnacle Aviation, that supplies its own. FBOs coordinate with aircraft operators and pilots to furnish fuel, terminals, hangar space and other amenities, ranging from coffee and catering to magazines and car rentals.

Scottsdale Airport is home to two FBOs: Landmark Aviation, which has operated there for decades, and Signature Flight Support, which swooped in Aug. 1 when it acquired the assets of Scottsdale AirCenter and took over its FBO service.

The buy was a coup for Orlando, Fla.-based Signature, which operates more than 120 locations throughout the globe, making it the world’s largest FBO and distribution network, according to the company. Not only did Scottsdale AirCenter already have a sterling reputation in a key market, but the facility boasts striking architecture and design features. …continues on page 20 December 2014 Scottsdale Airpark News | 19

In January 2012, Gregory Gibson got his “tail feathers clipped,” the custom of taking scissors to the shirt of a student pilot after his first solo flight. “That was one of the best days of my life,” Gibson says of the achievement.

“Our acquisition of this location was very strategic for us. We are one of only two FBOs on this field, and this is a landlocked area, so you wouldn’t expect many more to pop up,” says Gibson.

Another plus, he adds, is that Signature’s target clientele frequently travel in and out of Scottsdale: “As to the bottom line, it’s a huge

20 | Scottsdale Airpark News December 2014

opportunity to connect with our customer base, right here, in one of the No. 1 resort destinations in the country.”

When Signature took ownership, the existing team at Scottsdale AirCenter had such an outstanding performance record, the entire staff was retained. Gibson was the only Signature employee who came to Scottsdale, transferring from the smaller Kansas City FBO he’d managed for five years.

Compared to other FBOs in the Signature network and beyond, the Scottsdale building is a something of a standout, Gibson says, gazing appreciatively at the high ceilings and angled walls punctuated by steel cable, chrome flourishes and suspended artwork.

Two collectible cars on loan from the BarrettJackson car auction make a stunning centerpiece in the lobby, and glass walls throughout usher in surprising views and light play.

“I’ve been here three months, and I’m still very interested in looking around,” says Gibson. “It’s just overall eye pleasing.”

The modern facility includes a 12,000-square-foot terminal, gift shop, passenger and pilot lounge areas and 145,000 square feet of hangar space capable of housing all types of business aircraft—in …continues on page 22

Private office spaces and an exquisite glasswalled conference room are also available for clients to lease as needed.

Seamless Service

Signature Flight Support acquired the assets of the Scottsdale AirCenter FBO in early August.

LOW RATES??? L

K NO FURTHER!

Despite the facility’s uniqueness, Gibson’s job is to ensure a certain sameness of excellence for Signature Flight Support customers. “What makes a world-class FBO is seamless service from the moment they step off their [aircraft],” says Gibson.

Signature wants passengers who walk into the sparkling Scottsdale terminal to be greeted by the same well-positioned cigar cases, magazine stands, vending machines and signage and that they experienced in Singapore or British Columbia. That kind of consistency in amenities as well as pleasant customer interaction, Gibson explains, creates a reassuring “I’m at home” atmosphere for travelers on the go.

Many of the jets that come through Signature are owned by fractional aircraft ownership companies such as NetJets or FlexJet. Then there are the individuals or businesses who own their own planes, usually

managed by a charter company/flight department that will call ahead to alert FBOs to prepare for an imminent arrival.

Though Signature doesn’t provide services such as catering or detailing, the FBO is all about facilitating the needs of customers through relationships with vendors.

For instance, Gibson can’t speak highly enough of Ciao Baby Catering, which operates out of Scottsdale Airport. If catered meals are requested, Signature staff or the jet’s flight department place an order with Ciao Baby; the food is then delivered to Signature, which stores it until the crew gives the go-ahead for loading.

Gibson’s love affair with the wild blue yonder began in 1991 when he began flying around the globe as a flight attendant for Continental Airlines—one of the “coolest jobs” he says he ever had.

Several years later, he returned to University of Cincinnati, earned a business degree and entered the management program at United Airlines, moving up through positions as in-flight supervisor and manager to operations manager and finally labor-relations representative. Then he was laid off in 2008.

“As a result, I got to rethink what I was doing. I was passionate about aviation—I love airplanes— and I got into this,” he says of the transition into FBO management for Signature Flight Services.

Gibson had always wanted to learn to fly, and when Signature rolled out a program encouraging management to get a pilot’s license so they better understood pilots and customers, he was one of the first in line. He trained five days every week for six months to get his license, taking his first solo trip at the Kansas City FBO with all his co-workers watching.

“It was such a huge day for me,” he says. “Talk about a lump in your throat. The instructor said, ‘You’re ready,’ and shut the door. I took off and flew around—it was too much, it was surreal. I landed and couldn’t believe what I had done.”

Gibson feels privileged to have received the transfer to Scottsdale and the opportunities that come along with the new position. Though, he notes, he hasn’t had a single minute to fly since he got here—and going cold turkey after logging 300 hours in a Cessna 182 in the three years since he got his license hasn’t been easy.

“This first year isn’t about flying,” he says. “It’s about getting my arms around the business.”

The next several weeks will prove a true challenge with the demands of winter visitors flooding in for Barrett-Jackson, the Waste Management Phoenix Open and Super Bowl. Signature is arranging to bring in extra vans, employees, ground equipment and refrigerators from its other FBO locations to support the demand in Scottsdale.

Is Gibson feeling the pressure?

“My stress is high,” he says, suddenly wearing the same grin as when the Gulfstream landed. “But I’m confident we will achieve success.” 

ust three years ago, Gemini Air Group was managing a single airplane out of intimate offices and a leased hangar near Scottsdale Airport. In sort of an effortless glide toward growth, like a rare orchid marching toward inevitable bloom, the boutique management company’s management numbers have since ticked up to five aircraft.

Earlier this year, Gemini also earned its own charter certificate, with all planes under management available for charter with as little as four hours notice.

Providing the organic, driving fuse has been Gemini president and owner Tim Carpay’s easy, Canadian manner. If Mounties road the skies, they’d exude the same kind of confidence, capability and likeability. Carpay, 57, hails from Vancouver and first pierced the heavens as a teenager in float planes, flying up and down Canadian’s west coast.

Before moving to Scottsdale in 1995, Carpay ran a nineaircraft charter company in Vancouver. One of his clients purchased his own plane and asked Carpay to manage it for him in the “West’s Most Western Town,” and the move

was made to Arizona. A couple years later, the client sold that plane, but one of the charter passengers who’d booked the owner’s aircraft bought his own jet and, impressed with Carpay’s performance, asked him to manage it.

“And every client we’ve had started as a charter client,” Carpay says. “They buy an airplane and put it with us. They like the way we do things.”

Gemini Air Group was officially born in 1997, named without fanfare for Carpay’s sun sign—“I never wanted a company with my name on it.”

helped a client purchase this fall—was a huge coup for the management company. The large-cabin jet, capable of flying to London or Paris nonstop, is the only Global Express based in the Airport. Due to its hulking size, Carpay houses the plane in leased hangar space from nearby Signature Flight Services.

Gemini now leases two and a half adjacent hangars behind the office, expanding into space that became available at just the right times. The privately owned property is “behind the fence/Airpark,” and has its own fuel farm and an access road to the runway. Unlike the FBOs, which are

right at Scottsdale Airport, Gemini doesn’t have to pay city of Scottsdale flowage fees, which saves their clients quite a bit on fuel costs.

Though Carpay would like to someday invest in a larger, consolidated office/hangar space to facilitate operations (and he’s got some ideas), his vision for expansion is modest.

“We’re kind of at a point where we want to stop for a while,” he says. “I never wanted to be a big company. I want to grow it maybe one more airplane. You can’t provide the same kind of service if there are too many airplanes.” 

The Gemini Difference

Gemini isn’t in the aircraft sales business, though they’ll assist current and future management clients in locating the right jet for their needs if asked. Managing an aircraft involves taking care of everything to do with the plane: pilots, mechanics, hangar space, and arranging charter flights to defray costs when jets would otherwise be sitting idle.

“We really focus on safety and service. We have full-time flight attendants, mechanics, pilots, so we can make sure we are providing the same type of service every time, and obviously we have a fulltime charter person to take care of all that,” Carpay says. “I feel we provide more than most companies. If you use contractors, you just can't teach them everything you want to teach them.”

All 22 of Gemini’s employees are fulltime. Carpay himself will often pull pilot duty for owners' trips, flying everywhere from Paris in springtime to Minnesota in darkest winter.

The company’s charter customers consist primarily of 15 regulars, with “quarter-share companies—the NetJets of the world” relying partially on Gemini to provide backup for their fleets in case of overflow.

Hangar on

Starting in 2011, business began to accelerate, the trigger coinciding with nearly a 50 percent drop in jet prices from 2008. “First a Challenger showed up … about a year and half later, the next one came alone," says Carpay. "It just happened organically. Some of the clients we knew for years decided to buy airplanes.”

Gemini’s fleet of five consists of two Challengers, two Hawker 800s and one Global Express. The latter—which Carpay

Carolyn Berryman’s crew cleans a plane at Pinnacle Aviation on the east side of the Scottsdale Airport runway. The crews include Berryman’s husband, Cliff Berryman, using a sprayer to hose down a wing.

— g n i n a e l c Aircraft

C

s l i a t e d e h t n i l l It’s a

lean planes fly faster—just ask Carolyn Berryman.

Berryman and her Time for Sale Mobile Detailing team clean up to five planes a day, from single-engine twoseater Cessnas to Gulfstreams, mostly at Scottsdale Airport.

They swarm over and inside the aircraft, brandishing long poles topped with “Doodlebug” pads to scrub the exterior, shampooing carpets, polishing brightwork (baby oil is great for removing fingerprints from stainless steel), even cleaning blankets and linens—whatever it takes to turn out squeaky clean results.

And Berryman is right in there with

By Marjorie Rice

them, on sweltering summer days and nippy winter mornings, ensuring every detail is attended to.

“Our customers charter their aircraft as well as using it for their own personal use, and they’re very particular,” Berryman says. “They want it absolutely perfect, every time. It’s like a hotel room. You don’t want to be coming in and see crumbs and fingerprints from strangers who were there before. It has to be spot-on—five-star treatment.”

Her customers include celebrities and corporate CEOs, and Berryman keeps mum when asked for details. Privacy is another service, she says.

32 | Scottsdale Airpark News December 2014

Her crew does whatever it takes to go the extra mile to make the customer happy, Berryman adds. Sometimes that means leaving gifts on board—a bottle of wine, cookies—in the same way hotels leave mints on pillows for guests to discover.

“I treat it like it’s not just a cleaning but more of a concierge service,” Berryman says. “It’s not just giving something a lick and a promise and saying it’s good enough. People don’t forget the added touch.”

And Berryman does it in style, pulling up to a job in her Porsche that hauls a trailer emblazoned with her signature

graphic: a sponge-wielding hottie in a tank top with a vintage plane soaring overhead.

How It All Started

She calls her company Time for Sale because it began as a personal assistant business. After graduating in business from ASU, Berryman worked with an Airpark engineering consulting company.

“That was in 1992,” she says. “We were located in a hangar, which allowed me to meet a lot of pilots and be around the Airpark environment.”

In 2005, after a divorce, she decided to start her own business to help people who didn’t have time to pick up cleaning, take the kids to soccer, meet repairmen at home—“Whatever people needed done, that’s what I’d be hired for.”

Berryman credits a neighbor, retired Air Force Lt. Col. Dave O’Neil, for getting her into the aircraft cleaning business. “I was going in all kinds of directions,” she says. “I knew Colonel Dave for years. He knew about my personal assistant business, and one day he asked me if I could clean his airplane. I owe so much to him because he recommended me to friends who also needed their aircraft cleaned.”

You could say the company took off from there. …continues on page 34

…continued from page 33 “I got busier and busier with the airplanes, and decided this is the direction I’d rather go in,” Berryman says.

Berryman has four full-time employees—some days her husband, Cliff, also works on the planes—and she doesn’t plan to expand. “I like the intimacy,” she says. “I like things small, so I can take care of every job. Sometimes you can get too big and you can fall short and lose sight of what’s really important. I want to take care of four or five planes a day so I can make sure everything is done right.”

Other Services

Their services have expanded to include cleaning of customers' personal vehicles and boats. Some owners park their vehicle at the hangar when they leave for a trip.

Berryman’s team can detail it right there so the customer lands and has a pristine vehicle to drive away.

Time for Sale also cleans offices in the hangars and adjacent buildings and maintains hangar floors. “I do about six floors in the Airpark,” Berryman says. “The biggest one is about 18,000 square feet.”

One of the company’s newest and most popular services is the application of ToughGuard, which provides the aircraft with a coating designed to increase efficiency, protect the aircraft’s paint and make future cleaning easier and quicker.

Unlike some other Airpark businesses, Berryman doesn’t expect a spike in orders during the coming Super Bowl week.

“The planes usually are cleaned where they’re based, so they’re not coming here with dirty equipment,” she says. “Unless they hit weather, or you have five or six people eating popcorn in the cabin on the way here, the plane probably won’t need cleaning while it’s here.”

But there’s always the unexpected.

“You have to be very flexible and very understanding,” Berryman says. “It’s not your typical ‘show up and make 40 loaves of bread and go home’ kind of job.” For example, a plane may arrive from a chartered flight where the passengers left a real mess just as the aircraft’s actual owner announces plans to travel. “You may have one day to do it; you may have three hours.”

Having a small business operating right at Scottsdale Airport is like working in a small town, Berryman says. Referrals are essential to her success. “People here know everybody. If you don’t treat one person well, it can ripple through. I’m very fortunate, but I’m very sensitive to that issue, too.” 

Sky Kids ‘Fly Day’ comes to Scottsdale Airport

S

cottsdale Airport hosted its inaugural Sky Kids “Fly Day” event last month at Southwest Jet Center with Pinnacle Aviation. Sky Kids is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that offers special-needs youth in the Valley a oncein-a-lifetime opportunity to fly in a general aviation aircraft with an expert pilot, along with a parent or friend.

Experiencing the wonders and enjoyment of flight allows each child to gain

confidence and self-esteem by being “in command” of an amazing flying machine.

“We are honored to be a part of Scottsdale Airport’s first-ever Sky Kids event,” says Ken Casey, director of aircraft sales and acquisitions for Pinnacle Aviation. “Like most of our pilots, I, too, found my passion for aviation at a young age, and so we are thrilled to offer this opportunity to a group of incredible kids”

36 | Scottsdale Airpark News November 2014

The Scottsdale event was an expansion of the program, which was previously held only in the spring at the Phoenix-Goodyear airport. Sky Kids is eager to continue extending this program, to give more special needs youth in the metro-Phoenix area a memorable opportunity to fly.  More: www.skykidsaz.org; www.pinnacleaviation.com

mpire Aviation Group, a leading provider of aircraft sales, management and charter services, has opened a new aircraft sales, acquisitions and brokerage office in the United States. The new sales office, located at Scottsdale Municipal Airport, will help the company access the world`s largest market for private aviation and business aircraft. North America accounts for more than 50 percent of global new business jet sales, and around 60 percent of the world`s general aviation fleet.

Empire Aviation is focused on acquiring and reselling pre-owned business jets for buyers all over the world. The company has appointed Gary Wright, a veteran of the U.S. general aviation industry, to head its new U.S. sales operations.

Empire Aviation’s ability to reach the four corners of the globe is an enormous asset for customers. In today’s global economy, it’s important to market your aircraft throughout the world and to have a sales team with the experience and knowledge to successfully close deals. Empire Aviation’s reach goes well beyond the borders of the United States, with well-established operations in Africa, India and the U.A.E. The market intelligence and research team at Empire Aviation is unrivaled in the industry.

Having this knowledge assists Empire Aviation in attaining maximum value for customers while minimizing time on the market. When selling a multimillion-dollar piece of business equipment, it is essential to have a company behind you who understands the asset and will market it as such.

“Every part of the global economic cycle creates opportunities in business aviation and espe-

cially in the U.S. because of its dominance,” said Gary Wright, director of Empire Aviation. “As well as the sheer size of the market, the United States aviation market is highly regulated, and this helps to provide buyers with further reassurance about their aircraft through the due diligence process, which we undertake pre-sale. As the majority of new aircraft sales in the U.S. are replacements for existing owners, we are set to see some very attractive acquisition opportunities and great value for buyers.”

According to Empire Aviation Group, the price of a late model pre-owned business jet compared to new aircraft prices (which continue to rise) offers a substantial discount to buyers. Savings on pre-owned vs. new aircraft prices can run into the millions of dollars, which can be enough to cover operating costs for the owner for years. Pre-owned aircraft are also more readily available; with manufacturers currently running order backlogs, buyers of new aircraft may have to wait several years to take delivery.

“Our new sales office is just the first step for Empire Aviation Group in the U.S.,” said Steve Hartley, executive director of Empire Aviation Group. “We have proven our aviation asset management business model and the U.S. is the next opportunity, after our 2012 launch in India. As the U.S. market for new business jets recovers, this creates opportunities in the pre-owned sector as corporations and individuals take delivery of their new aircraft and more aircraft come onto the preowned market. We plan to follow up this first step with the introduction of our full-service portfolio of aircraft management and aircraft charter.”

At least 9 things we bet you don’t know about

SCOTTSDALE AIRPORT

Photos, story by Kimberly Hundley

Y

ou’ve seen the directional signs to Scottsdale Municipal Airport, you’ve spotted the planes en route, but have you ever been to the namesake facility that the Airpark has grown up around?

Even if you live or work here, probably not.

We haven’t conducted an official study or anything, but based on empirical evidence over the last five years (hundreds of chats with people in the Airpark), most people know it’s vaguely “over there,” waving in a direction easterly of Scottsdale Quarter and westerly of the Northsight Costco, but they’ve not stepped foot inside or even driven past.

Well here are a few pithy facts about the airport, and a look inside the facility that’s just around the corner from you … somewhere.

1. How to get to the terminal.

Take Greenway Parkway east and continue past Scottsdale Road, when it immediately turns into a street called Butherus (we admit we don’t know how to pronounce this for sure). Just a minute or two later, you’ll dead end at a stop sign in front of Scottsdale Airport. Make a left onto a one-way roadway and park for free in the lot right across from the terminal. If you take a right onto Airport Drive, you’ll go past several attractive office buildings privately owned on city land.

2. What the Airport Advisory Committee does.

The City Council appointed this ninemember citizen advisory board to review and offer recommendations on policy matters related to the airport, review development proposals, airport-area land use, fees and safety concerns. For example, developers who want to build multistory buildings anywhere near the airport can’t take their proposal to the planning department until they first get the thumbs-up from these guys and gals. It’s safe to say, members are passionate about aviation the importance of the airport to Scottsdale’s financial future.

3. Meet Sarah Ferrara.

She’s the planning and outreach coordinator for Scottsdale Airport, and works upstairs in the terminal, home to the airport’s administrative offices. You’ll see her at public workshops related to the airport, meetings of the Airport Advisory Committee, etc.

4. How the airport intends to handle intense Super Bowl travel.

OK, in 2008, the last time the Valley hosted the Super Bowl, flights in and out of Scottsdale Airport had a few, uh, hitches. We couldn’t get city staff to say as much, but official minutes from advisory committee meetings indicate flights on Monday after the big game were delayed by as much as seven hours, and jetsetters were not happy. “We’re lucky the Super …continues on page 42

Bowl is coming back,” one observer remarked. This time around, the airport’s new aviation director, Gary Mascaro, and staff are determined all will go smoothly, even if the game is a dud and a slew of visitors decide to jet away at half-time. How? For one thing, the airport has introduced a brand new reservation system that will be managed by the FBOs (fixed-base operators) during Super Bowl weekend. Even base tenants and private charter companies will filter all their arrivals/departures through the FBOs so that they are highly synchronized with all parties working together. Another critical improvement, Ferrara told the Scottsdale Airpark News, is a close partnership throughout the event with the FAA, which determines who goes where in Southwest regional airspace. The Scottsdale Airport Tower will also be open extended hours over the weekend (normal hours are 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.), meaning pilots don’t have to use only visual cues to navigate.

5. You can rent an office right at the airport!

Adjacent to the terminal building is an attractive little office building, complete with patio and conference rooms, called the Aviation Business Center. Tenants include aviation-related enterprises such as Southwest Flight Center as well as businesses like Chameleon Music whose owners just enjoy the proximity of flight. Space is now available.

6. A new Airport Operations Center building is in the works.

offices in the Terminal Building. The project is expected to cost nearly $5 million. When construction is finished, a hangar now being used for equipment storage will be available for rental, with funds going to the city.

7. Landmark Aviation will unveil its new FBO facility before the Super Bowl.

Longtime airport tenant Landmark, one of only two fixed-base operators at the airport, is just about to finish up a major renovation of its facility. One thing is for sure, company officials told the city: It will be finished before the Super Bowl!

8. Rent a car at Scottsdale Airport.

Little-known fact treasured by locals: You can rent a car right at Scottsdale Airport, a handy-dandy locale for many of us. Enterprise and Hertz have reps inside the terminal, and both companies were already getting a plethora of calls about Super Bowl weekend reservations when we stopped by in November.

Rent a car.

9. Terminal low-down.

The truth is almost nobody uses the terminal anymore, except as a venue for public meetings. If you fly in or out on a private jet, you’ll go through an FBO or the management/charter company’s facilities at the airport—not hang out at the city’s terminal, though it’s open to the public and you can get free Wi-Fi there. Just a couple

of years ago, the terminal’s interior could be kindly described as “retro ’70s,” but due to the convoluted demise of a company called Set Jet, the terminal is downright swanky these days. Set Jet, a startup with a membership-based model for private air travel, rented a major hunk of the terminal in 2013, paid to refurbish it, then relinquished its lease late last year when a key

party was arrested on unrelated fraud and money-laundering conspiracy charges. The arrest story received scant coverage locally, but you can read about Scottsdale’s alleged “hockey con man” in the New York Daily News here: http://nydn.us/1vkgwLK and http://nydn.us/11WCXuL. Maybe you know him. The upside is, the terminal and its rest rooms are now very, very nice. 

Fox & Fin Financial Group’s Airpark Hangar Party!

F

ox and Fin Financial Group invited Airpark-area business neighbors to stop by for an “attitude adjustment party,” Nov. 13, in the group’s hangar/office space near Scottsdale Airport’s runway, at 15029 N. 74th St. Fox & Fin is a financial advisory company that facilitates the mergers and acquisitions of privately held, middle-market companies, with a sharp focus on businesses in the West that have annual sales between $2 million and $75 million. “Ideally, we create relationships with business owners two or more years before their company is ready to sell,” says Adam Sandler, mergers and acquisitions advisor. “While our ultimate objective is business sales, Fox & Fin is truly a financial and M&A advisory company.” 

Bruce Fox, founding principal and managing partner of Fox & Fin, congratulates two winners of the helicopter tours, courtesy of Arizona Helicopter Adventures, which has hubs in Sedona as well as the Scottsdale Airpark.

Guests enjoyed Mexican cuisine from Arriba Mexican Grill in the Airpark and drinks from the tin-topped bar, a built-in feature of Fox & Fin’s hangar.

lizabeth “Lizzy” Williams, a student at Arizona Culinary Institute, was recently honored as a top contender at the Scottsdale Regional Food Championships, and went on to compete last month in the World Food Championships held in Las Vegas.

Williams went to the championships on the strength of her recipe for a three-cheese pizza that she calls “Manna From Heaven,” created by her and a friend from her hometown of El Paso, Texas.

“Baking is my passion, and I grew up watching my mom and grandmother cook with very organic and natural ingredients,” says Williams. “I would help make our bread for the week, and I always loved how our creations made people happy—and gave me so much enjoyment.”

Williams was originally enrolled in pre-nursing courses, but she decided to follow her passion and obtained an associate’s degree in pastry in El Paso.

When her mom came to Arizona for medical reasons, however, Williams decided to follow her and enrolled at Arizona Culinary Institute for the opportunity to enhance her baking skills, while also gaining cooking and restaurant management experience.

“Lizzy has the smarts and talent to take her career to the top,” says Arizona Culinary Institute Chef Instructor Philip Sayre.

Williams is determined to own day open up a custom-cake shop.

“I just love working with fondant and creating cakes that are truly my own,” says Williams. 

Here’s how to finish 2014

on a high note!

By Eric Olsen, Fasturtle

T

he hustle and bustle of the holiday season is upon us. There is no better time to reach out to your customers, bring in new clients and boost repeat and referral business. Whether you have a retail shop here in Scottsdale, provide a specialized service, work business-tobusiness or have a nonprofit in need of outreach, you can close out 2014 on a high note by simply focusing on what you want to accomplish. Here’s how.

Are you ready for the holidays?

Here’s what to expect in December.

Holiday spending will go up, as it usually does. According to Retail TouchPoints, consumers will spend 3.5 percent more over last year.

Online spending will go up too.

E-commerce company Volusion predicts that online shoppers will splurge 9 percent more than in 2013.

So now that you know this season is going to be busier, it’s time to start mar-

48 | Scottsdale Airpark News December 2014

keting to get people and their dollars in your door.

Let’s get set!

The holiday season brings in 20 percent to 40 percent of yearly sales for small and midsized retailers, according to the National Retail Federation. Zero in on what you want. Is it: • Reaching new customers?

• Driving repeat business from current customers/increasing customer

digitalmarketing

loyalty?

• Motivating donors and advocates to take that next step by giving or spreading the word?

• Growing your member numbers?

Once you know your marketing goal, you can focus on planning.

Let’s get engaged through email.

Email marketing yields one of the highest ROIs in advertising; just saying.

If you have an audience that has already been getting email communications from you, email should be part of your holiday promotion plan. Consider sending separate emails about the promotion, but also make sure you’re including offers in your regular newsletter to drive sales and put you at readers’ top of mind.

What kinds of promotions are best to include in your emails?

• Coupon or discount • Free shipping • Suggest products or services • Encourage customers to buy directly from your website • If running an end-of-the-year donation drive, make readers aware • Promotions that increase awareness of your business or organization • Membership and loyalty programs When you create your promotions, make sure to answer this question: Why does this message/offer matter RIGHT NOW? That’s what your audience is thinking every time they receive any message in their inbox. Use a strong subject line that tells them the most important information in this email. Also make it clear what your offer is and why it benefits them.

Let’s get social.

There is no such thing as an emailonly promotion anymore.

Email is part of social media and any campaign you send via email should also be shared on your social media sites.

Make sure that social media is part of your holiday marketing strategy.

One of the advantages of social media is your fans’ interactions with your content can be seen by their networks. They can easily share your content, giving you a greater chance to reach more people.

• Post your email newsletters and email promotions on your social media sites.

• Make your images work for you—

post product photos; social media users interact more with images than just text or text with a link.

• You can engage with your audience.

Give them shopping advice for the holiday season.

• Ask them what they need help with or what they think about the holidays; use Facebook questions.

It’s all about timing.

Timing is important during the holidays. Along with national holidays, think about the retail events that have become popular over the last few years, such as November’s Small Business (something to consider next year, as 27 percent of participants saw an increase in sales).

Also think about shipping dates in your promotions. Alert customers when you have free shipping or ship-by dates. Plan for exclusive offers and sales, giving your customers enough time to take advantage of discounts.

Do, measure, repeat.

If you’re not measuring, you are not marketing. Period. You should know who is opening your marketing emails, when and how many times, and what they clicked on individually and generally.

Know how many people respond to your surveys, sign up for your events, pay for your events or deal, or make a donation.

Most reputable services, such as Constant Contact, will provide this information in their reports.

You have to know what is working and what isn’t. You have to measure to know what is helping you grow.  Eric Olsen founded Airpark-based Fasturtle in 2000, providing business owners strategic digital marketing solutions. For a free trial for Constant Contact email and social media marketing courtesy of Fasturtle, visit www. freetrialemail.com or to speak to a representative visit www.fasturtlecc.com.

Automate what you can.

Add a Join My List “tag.” This is a little tool that most any service will provide.

For example, Constant Contact has tools that allow you to collect email addresses from any site, including your Facebook page, Pinterest, website, everywhere.

Set up initial emails that are going out so that when someone joins your list through your website or wherever, they will immediately get a “welcome” confirmation email. And if you’ve made a promise to deliver something when they join, include it in the welcome email.

That way you don’t have to go back and mail the coupon or download link later.

Use a scheduling tool. Hootsuite is great for managing multiple social media profiles at once. MarketMeSuite is another tool that allows you to schedule your social media posts, so you can decide ahead of time what and when you want to share.

And don’t let yourself get overwhelmed by the time you think this will take.

You may have heard you need to spend five to 10 hours a week on social media.

That’s just not the case, especially if you’re using scheduling tools. Three to five 20-minute slots per week should be all the time you need to manage your social media.

financialfundamentals

Europe, China, and Japan Stumble into Global Recession

By Thomas K. Brueckner, Strategic Asset Conservation

I

n the early fall of 2007, months before the subprime mortgage crisis began to give markets the jitters, I and about 75 other top advisors from around the country were in Monaco attending a financial industry convention. Our keynote speaker, Scott Minerd, the chief investment officer at Guggenheim Partners, was unable to attend in person and had to present to us by phone from his home in California, nearly half a world away. The reason, he

‘Ominous portents of dark foreboding’ … seriously? began to explain to us, was that changes were occurring in the bond and currency markets that would soon spill over into equities and were consuming his every minute. As Scott spoke of massive losses in real estate yet to come (home values were at all-time highs and rising), job losses of 600,000 per month nationally (unemployment was only 4.6 percent), the possible bankruptcy of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (which shocked us all), and the

52 | Scottsdale Airpark News December 2014

eventual bear market in equities (which had almost fully recovered their dot-com losses), everyone in the room gasped in disbelief. We had always known Scott to understate eventual events, err on the side of temperance, and always be proven right in the end, which made that year’s forecast all the more unbelievable compared to the recently restored health of the economy and markets. We were shocked.

I share this recollection because Scott

financialfundamentals

and others who were equally prescient at the time are once again warning of ominous things to come. Europe is sliding into recession as its powerhouse economy, Germany, rather than slowing the decline of the peripheral economies (Greece, Portugal, Spain, Italy), seems to be leading the way into the abyss. In a recent Guggenheim release, Scott writes, “Europe must act now. Things in Europe are bad and policymakers appear already to have fallen behind the curve. The reality is the ECB will need to purchase at least another €1.5 trillion in assets, and even that may not be enough to avert a severe slowdown. Quantitative easing in Europe is coming, but too slowly to avert a severe slowdown and perhaps even a hard landing.”

Europe is not alone. China’s economy has been slowing for months, and in a piece entitled, “Japan Economy Falls into Surprise Recession,” Marketwatch reported that “Japan’s real GDP shrank 1.6 percent

on an annualized basis as firms cut inventories and held back on capital investment.

None of the 18 economists surveyed by The Wall Street Journal had forecast a contraction; the median forecast was for a 2.25 percent expansion. The figure marked the second quarter of contraction, after the economy shrank 7.3 percent in the AprilJune quarter.”

Note that 18 out of 18 economists got it wrong, off by an astonishing 3.85 percent, not the usual half a percent, something that should raise eyebrows among the investor class that too often depends on such forecasts.

So what does this mean for U.S. markets? Will the global flight to safety bring additional capital to our bonds and equities, as foreign investors prefer our “least worst” markets to their own—or will the growing global recession drag U.S. markets down with it? Whatever you decide, the chart nearby should serve to inform our place in history. Only the bull markets

that ended in 1929 and 2000 lasted longer than this Fed-engineered bull—right before they ended badly. As Scott Minerd put it: “The events overseas provide ominous portents of things to come. If we do get a sign of a bear market in U.S. equities, it could be that the events in Europe presage what lies ahead for the United States. Is it too late to change these shadows of dark foreboding? It is hard to tell, but time is not on our side.”

Buyer beware. Holder too.  Thomas K. Brueckner, CLTC, is president/CEO of Strategic Asset Conservation in Scottsdale, a conservative wealth management firm with clients in 18 states and six countries.

leadership

Ready, Set, Grow!

By Jodi Low, President and Founder, U & Improved

I

t's that time of year again when everyone is going to announce their New Year’s resolutions, and come up with a big list of goals that they will accomplish.

Most of these goals and resolutions, however, will be broken two weeks later.

That’s because about 8 percent of New Year's resolutions are ever achieved. Why? We’re human beings. We always seem to come up with these really great lofty ideas, but when it comes to putting these ideas into action, it’s where many of us tend to fall short.

How many of these have you heard or said?

“I really want to lose this weight once and for all."

"This year, I will start my business."

"I am going to take that dream vacation this year."

"I will put more time and attention into my marriage."

"No more smoking."

"I will make more money this year."

"I will create more balance in my life."

It all sounds familiar, right?

That’s because the issue is really this: To have something you really want in life, you have to work for it. I mean really work for it. It involves a strategy, a plan, and a "whatever it takes" attitude.

No one arrives at the Olympics and just takes the gold. There are years of grueling workouts, and an insane amount of early morning practices. And let’s not forget the often obscene amount of late-night practices too.

Perhaps your goal isn't quite so grandiose; you just want more free time, a little more money, and to weigh 10 pounds less? How do you accomplish those things?

The first question I would ask someone with these desires is this: Why haven't you accomplished these goals so far? What has been holding you back?

54 | Scottsdale Airpark News December 2014

There's always a reason behind why we don't accomplish the things we say we want to have in life. In fact, it's typically because of some old, worn-out programming we have running through our minds. It becomes the backdrop of our lives. I see it every single month, without exception. It doesn't matter if you're a doctor or an attorney, a college student or a stay-at-home mom, a CEO or an entry-level manager.

We say we want to be healthier, yet we keep putting junk into our bodies. We say we are going to chase after that new career, but we don't even update our resume. We say we want a better marriage, but we come home and fall into our old habits of turning on the TV instead of turning toward our mate. We say we want to

leadership start that business and leave the corporate rat race, but we allow fear to overcome us and stop us before we even start. We say we are going to be a more impactful, empowering leader, but we don't encourage enough and gossip too much.

It's simply easier to complain and commiserate about what we want and don't have than take that first step to actual attainment.

If you find yourself with a list of goals and a true burning passion to have those things, then just start.

Yup, it's that simple. Take your first step.

Our minds are funny, complex creatures. Our brains do not like things to be left unfinished. We are wired for completion. So when that to-do list seems too long, that project seems too big, or that massive goal seems way too massive—just start. You will be amazed at how the act of just beginning a project will lead itself into completion right before your eyes.

And when you don't see immediate results? When those pounds don't just shed after week one, or that bank account doesn't get bigger in the first quarter ... then what?

Keep going. Small steps. Every single day. And I mean it. EVERY. Single. Day. Nothing trumps action. Moving forward, at whatever pace you choose, will eventually lead you to your end goal. The choice is up to you. How quickly do you want to get there? And what are you willing to sacrifice to get there?

Is 2015 finally going to be your year?

The choice is yours. Is this the time when you actually do what it takes to get what you want, once and for all? Then just listen to what Nike said so many years ago, and JUST DO IT. One of my favorite sayings is, "If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always gotten." So let 2015 be your year of triumph. Let this be your big win. Let this be the year you look back upon and say, "that's when I truly committed myself to living the life I deserve."  Jodi Low is president and founder of U & Improved, a Scottsdale-based leadership training organization that provides personal and professional development programs through heart-based leadership and powerful, performance-based trainings.

7th Annual Carefree Christmas Festival, Dec. 12-14

isions Optique & EYECARE •

• SEMI-ANNUAL Comprehensive Eye Exams

three-day, two-night celebration with real snow, an electric light parade and a fireworks extravaganza welcome in the holidays at the seventh annual Carefree Christmas Festival, Dec. 12-14.

The tiny town of Carefree, located just north of the Scottsdale and most famously known for its oversized Sundial, turns into an illuminated winter wonderland for the yuletide event.

Festivities take place at the Carefree Desert Gardens, 101 Easy St., from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 10 a .m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.

The signature Electric Light Parade, presented by APS and produced by the Carefree Cave Creek Chamber of Commerce, begins Saturday at 6 p.m. along Easy Street and is followed by a fireworks display.

More than 20,000 visitors are expected to attend throughout the weekend. All activities are free. Information and a full schedule of events are available at carefreechristmasfestival.com, or at 480-488-2051.

Highlights include a lighted holiday village with daytime and late-night shopping, seasonal food and drink, live holiday dance and singing performances including the Salvation Army Marching Band, a Kid’s Zone with 35 tons of real snow, lighted carriage rides, ice princesses, Charles Dickens-inspired carolers, a live nativity display, and Santa.

Pet lovers are invited to bring their pets, dressed in their holiday best, for a pet parade and pictures with Santa on Sunday. Pet adoptions by the Foothills Animal Rescue (FAR) will take place throughout the day.

“The festival has become one of the most well-attended holiday events in the Valley because it brings out the child in all who attend. It is reminiscent of a traditional Christmastime of years past,” said Jo Gemmill, director and founder of the event.

The four-acre Carefree Desert Gardens provide a unique backdrop, with thousands of cacti illuminated in holiday lights for the festival.

According to Gemmill, the festival relies heavily on generous corporate and small business sponsorships to fund the event.

Sanderson Lincoln on Bell Road will present a snow slide and 35 tons of real snow, and local Carefree businessman Chris Mellon, of Chris Mellon Custom Home & Remodeling Center, is sponsoring the always popular Kid’s Zone. Discount Tire has also signed on to be a supporter this year. 

Chiropractic physician Jason Romano and his wife, Lana, demonstrate how patients use the DRX9000 table for disc treatments.

By Marjorie Rice

r. Jason Romano, a Scottsdale chiropractic physician, is offering a new twist for his patients with disc ailments—spinal decompression using a computerized DRX9000 table.

This sounds pretty space-age, but Romano brings the details down to earth.

Romano uses the DRX9000 treatments for patients who have herniated or bulging discs or degenerative disc disease, where the spine puts pressure on the disc. Traditional treatments include spinal surgery or chiropractic adjustment. Spinal decompression therapy is an alternative to those treatments.

“I look at the disc like a jelly doughnut,” Romano says. “If you put pressure on the inner part of the disc, a jelly-like substance comes out. If you can reduce the pressure, that jelly can go back in. It’s a difficult process, but in cases where I have seen pre- and post-treatment MRI reports by a radiologist, the MRI shows re-absorption of that disc material after spinal decompression, so it no longer bulged.”

Spinal decompression is traction, but with a difference. The therapy involves intermittent motorized traction calibrated specifically for the patient’s height and weight and the disc area involved. Over a series of treatments, the traction can pull the vertebra apart enough to reduce pressure on the disc, Romano says.

During therapy, the patient is fitted with a harness and lies on a table.

Cushions are placed under the patient’s neck and knees, to achieve the proper position. Then Romano sets the machine to pull at a precise angle and pressure, with periods of relaxation between pulls.

Treatments usually last 30 minutes. “You feel it pull, yet there’s virtually no discomfort,” Romano says. “I’ve had patients as old as 86 on this table.

Once the treatment is done, you’re a little sore because we’re doing work.”

Many patients have electrotherapy, ice or some other additional treatment for soreness after the therapy, and typically they can walk out of the office and go back to work after a session.

Romano says the therapy can be an effective alternative to surgery for many patients.

“It’s important for someone to come in for a consultation, to see if we can help them,” he says. “I can tell pretty quickly whether this therapy can help them, whether they should have other chiropractic treatments and procedures, or whether they should see a surgeon.

Surgery for a bulging disc basically cuts off “that bad part,” and scar tissue forms at the site to prevent it from happening again, Romano adds. “If you have Chiropractic the surgery first, it presents a bit of an issue physician Jason because there is scar tissue. I’m not anti-surgery—I Romano adjusts recommend it all the time—but I recommend that the rate and patients should try the conservative measures direction of pull on a DRX9000 spinal first.” decompression Romano bought his Scottsdale practice just four table months ago after practicing in Chicago for 20 years.

“We had the DRX9000 table for the last 10 years we were in Chicago,” he says. ““There Arizona Spinal Care are a few other decompression devices in 8360 E. Raintree Drive, Scottsdale, but to my knowledge ours is the Suite 105 area’s only DRX9000, which I think is the best.

480-513-9580 The treatment has been very effective for our arizonaspinalcare.com patients who have herniated or bulging discs, or degenerative disc disease.”

Romano stresses that the therapy isn’t a cure-all for everyone. “Success varies from person to person.

times they say, ‘Hey, Dr. Romano, I don’t feel any better,’ I say go have the surgery.

There has been some controversy about the table and others like it, which Romano acknowledges.

Criticism centers on marketing and overstated claims of successful treatment made by some practitioners.

“We have had people who don’t get better with epidurals, physical therapy, injections, surgery— nothing will work for every single patient,” he says.

“But this will do no harm. It won’t cause additional damage to the disc.”

Success also depends on the patient’s involvement, Romano says. “I emphasize that it isn’t just about coming in and doing spinal decompression. You’re a partner in your healthcare. It’s important to get healed through the therapy, then exercise to strengthen your back so you’ll have fewer issues down the road.”

Romano hopes to grow his practice through use of the DRX9000, and also by expanding his massage therapy services to workers in the Airpark area. That includes chair massage, where the therapist can go onsite to treat individuals who spend much of their workday sitting in front of computer screens.

“We’re very fortunate that our massage therapist, Rolinda Teller, stayed with the practice when we purchased it,” Romano says. “We probably kept 98 percent of the practice’s existing patients after our purchase, and I give credit to Rolinda for helping us with that.” 

Airpark chiropractor invents customizable pillow for correct sleeping postures

By Kimberly Hundley

“D

o you toss and turn all night long?”

“Do you sleep with your pillow folded in half at night?”

“Do you use more than one pillow at night when you sleep?”

“Do you wake up at night because you pillow is too high?”

Dr. Jason Loth, a North Scottsdale sports chiropractor, fires his questions at the camera recording the uShopTV informercial for his new creation, the Spine Align Pillow. He sounds passionate, and he is.

Two years ago, Loth wasn’t even dreaming about filming advertising videos. He was focused on solving a nagging problem—that classic inspiration for many an inventor.

After working as a sports chiropractor

for more than 15 years, he was frustrated by why some patients would respond well to treatment only to come back with the same upper-back issues and headaches. “The problem was there all over again. I couldn’t get to the root of the issue, and I knew that sleep posture was having a big impact,” says Loth.

Many people sleep with a pillow that juts their head forward or upward, causing a host of issues, from migraines to arm numbness.

The doctor set about personally trying every "therapeutic" pillow he could find on the market. He tested about two dozen, and none worked well for every single body type. As a health professional who counsels his own patients to “address the underlying problem not just the symptoms,” Loth

wasn’t about to let the matter rest.

He resolved to create a single adjustable pillow that would allow people of all shapes and sizes to sleep on both back and side in a correct sleeping posture that kept their cervix and spine aligned.

“I found that poor sleeping posture was one of the major contributing factors in putting stress on their spinal joints, muscles and surrounding structures,” Loth says. “Most pillows do much more harm than good … and most of the cervical orthopedic contour pillows that are designed to do this actually don’t.”

Working with a seamstress on the prototype took a couple of …continues on page 62

years, with Loth finding a comfortable adjustable material that would provide the perfect amount of torque and support. He settled on a filler of 100-percent natural shredded Dunlop latex, a rubberized material from the sap of rubber trees. Unlike Memory Foam, which is made from a petroleum product, the Dunlop doesn’t have a chemical odor and the shredded material is infinitely adjustable.

The filler is inserted into the pillow’s three chambers and may be gently shaken or massaged to customize the amount of support an individual needs. Users can also open the zippered chambers to move the internal fill from chamber to chamber.

One side of the pillow is slightly fatter, designed to support the necks of those 5-foot 7-inches and up; the other is more delicate for slighter frames, with both sloping into a gentle hollow for the head. The remaining two sides are bulkier, designed to keep the neck and head aligned in side positions. As sleepers move about in the night, they can swivel their pillows for continual support.

Loth began his marketing by selling the pillows to his patients in Scottsdale and the East Valley, many of whom have posted video testimonials on his website.

“Once people lay on it, they feel the position they should be in vs. what they have been doing,” he says. “A lot of people say, my neck pain has gone away, my headaches are gone, I sleep better. I get all kinds of positive feedback.”

It was time to ramp up production and marketing. Loth began posting testimonials on his product website, flew to Florida to record a 30-minute infomercial, which will run through the end of the year on uShopTV—a competitor to QVC that’s more affordable for entrepreneurs—and is in the process of getting the product released on Amazon any day.

“Our goal is to send a lot of our customers to Amazon to give us five-star feedback,” Loth says. “When you become a best seller on Amazon, you come up on the front pages and get more exposure.”

The product now sells on the Spine Align Pillow website for $124.95, but readers of Scottsdale Airpark News are welcome to purchase it for $99.95 directly from Loth at his Airpark office, inside the Fit Ops gym at 7645 E. Evans Road, Suite 145. (Call to make sure he’s available at 602-549-2750.)

The pillow comes with a soft, fitted pillowcase and a 30-day money-back guarantee.  More: www.spinealignpillow.com

DECEMBER Business Horoscope

By Weiss Kelly, PMAFA Whether you’re a small-business owner or have other career aspirations, insights into how the planets influence your work month can help you plan for maximum performance and project success.

ARIES 3/21-4/20 Planets are busy, moving in and out of signs, presenting a variety of issues to address before the year is over. New developments and offers come into view by the second week. A project or presentation started by Dec. 4 could be carried over into the New Year. Your social life is in full swing; don’t ignore invites from colleagues or clients.

The last 10 days, you successfully combine business with pleasures!

TAURUS 4/21-5/20 Money is always on your mind, so don’t waste time looking back on 2014 figures. The last two to three years have brought challenges in relationships, but 2015 will be easier.

Finances show a marked improvement in the months ahead. The 1st to the 16th is timely for attending to tax matters, outstanding credit and projected expenses. Enjoy holiday events!

A promotion or a solid offer could be a potential windfall (maybe not right away, but later in the New Year). This month look for networking opportunities the week of the 9th. You’ll find 2015 to be your lucky year of personal growth and opportunities.

learning. The second half of this month is focused on your earning potential. A conservative approach to spending is required. A major change in our government and economy will influence your salary, so project accordingly. Enjoy time with family the 22nd-31st.

VIRGO 8/23-9/22 You most likely have all your office duties and schedules prepped for the holidays ahead. Your day-to-day routine is fine-tuned. You end the year in a progressive and successful mode. But all work and no play can be unrewarding, so take time off to design a new you. Buy a special gift for yourself and put it under the tree. In 2015, you become more socially active within your professional circle. Why not do a bit of practicing now, around the 17th?

CAPRICORN 12/22-1/19 You may have to spend some time alone or on the road again. With so many planets in your own sign later this month, you can accomplish wonders, and most of your efforts are successful. It’s not too early to forge a New Year’s plan. Being more active within your business associations is vital not only work wise but socially speaking.

GEMINI 5/21-6/21 Interacting with others (meetings, luncheons, minor travel) may take up much of your time the first two weeks or so. Get ready for serious professional commitments in the weeks ahead. Expect more invites to office parties and social events. Travel plans should be confirmed by the 6th. Get ready for a job offer the week of the 22nd.

LIBRA 9/23-10/23 Focus on your public relations strengths this month and expect to meet with success. Working well with others often puts you in a partnership position. Besides, the holiday office celebrations give you a chance to dress your best. Image is key in business—when you look nice, you feel nice, and act your diplomatic best. New Moon on the 22nd allows you to accomplish what you set out to do by the 27th.

CANCER 6/22-7/22 Your thoughts in December always seem to stray toward home and family. Try to get your shopping done by the first week. Social scene gets in full motion by the first weekend and is nonstop until the 31st! Arrange meetings with clients or co-workers early on. Think outside the box on how the current political scene affects your professional, services or products, and you’ll be ahead of the game in 2015.

SCORPIO 10/24 –11/21 Take part and celebrate the holidays: The worst is over; shut the door on the past. You can let something or someone go. Seek advanced info or taking up a new skill.

Business affairs require putting in some extra time or effort the week of the 17th until the 24th. Finances take slight turn for the better. Learning a new skill, perhaps related to technology, is on your to-do list for the months ahead.

LEO 7/23-8/22 Your favorite month of the year except for your birthday month is here! Work vs. personal commitments require you to do some strategizing.

SAGITTARIUS 11/22-12/21 Expect to be on the go the first two weeks. December’s patterns suggests you are ready to commit yourself to two-plus years of

76 | Scottsdale Airpark News December 2014

AQUARIUS 1/20-2/18 You finally get a move on. Mars is in your own sign all month, giving you the motivation and energy to be aggressive about your goals—and possibly about switching jobs. Put yourself out there: A series of mix-and-match gatherings brings many professional opportunities that you can put into place next month. Enjoy the year-end pleasantries.

PISCES 2/19-3/20 Trust your own feelings as you enter the last month of the year.

Look back at what you experienced (the failures and successes), and then compose a list of what you want to further accomplish. Use your intuitive power to project how changes in the work environment are going to influence your career in the months ahead. December is not without its romantic moments. Network and enjoy every holiday invitation.

Wishing you all peace, happiness and a better year ahead (it will be)!  For your 2015 forecast on CD, contact Weiss as weissastro@aol. com or 480-600-7424. Credit cards accepted.

ABOUT THE STERLING AWARDS

Celebrating 29 years of business excellence, the Sterling Award is one of the most coveted business awards in the Valley, with a rigorous application, judging and selection process. Four teams of judges each conduct an initial review of all applications and narrow the field to

three finalists in each category. Once the finalists are identified, the judging teams visit those companies to conduct a personal interview and get a behind-thescenes look at the operations. Once that step is complete, each judge independently casts a set of points for the finalists based on their embodiment of the award criteria. The points are tallied and the results remain secret until the day of the event. One of the highlights of the Sterling Awards Celebration is the highly anticipated video presentation of each of the 12 finalists. Only members of the Scottsdale Area Chamber of Commerce are eligible to apply for the Sterling Award.

The Scottsdale Area Chamber of Commerce is the largest business organization in Scottsdale providing advocacy, education, networking, leadership development and exposure opportunities to member businesses. The chamber actively works to maintain Scottsdale’s high quality of life and create an environment where business innovation, excellence and entrepreneurship can thrive, and has served all of Scottsdale since 1947.
