CEO Daily Update – 10.12.2020

October 12, 2020 by Jason Gazaway

Spaghetti Brain? | PPE Prices Continue to Fall | CP-PWR-CUBE-4 | Alignment & Adaptability | News to Start Your Day


Happy Monday! (A holiday for some, a normal day for others.)

Hey there, friends. I hope you all had a good weekend. It was rainy and wet here due in part to Hurricane Delta making her way through. I have been thinking of those impacted by her direct hit since Friday. My heart just breaks thinking of them being hit by Hurricane Laura just a few weeks ago and now again with Delta. If you are in that area and there is something we can do to help, please let us know.  

Have you ever heard of men’s brains being compared to waffles while women’s are compared to spaghetti? I was thinking about that today, feeling like a spaghetti brain myself, and I Googled its origins. Apparently, it was a book (that I’ve never read) written in 2001 by Bill and Pam Farrell. It looks like it was endorsed by Gary Chapman, author of The Five Love Languages. A reader mentioned that book in response to my personality test post on Friday. It is a good one! Craig and I attended a Gary Chapman marriage conference pretty early on in our marriage. He was funny and engaging. We still use some of the content from the conference with each other, so he obviously made an impression on us.  

Anyway, back to spaghetti and waffles. I’m not sure if that characterization holds true for the majority of men and women, but it certainly does for us. Craig has the ability to focus on one thing at a time physically, mentally and emotionally much easier than I do. Everything is connected for me. Looking for a sock? Oh, look that toy needs to be picked up and I should probably take out some meat for dinner. Did I move the laundry over? I should do that and I cannot forget to send that email, oh and I also need to take out that puzzle for school tomorrow. Now, what was I looking for again?  

I was having a particularly “noodly” day today as I was processing through the weekend, thinking about what’s coming up for the week and also what I wanted to share with you all today. About the time I thought I knew what I was going to write about, a friend shared a meme that induced a moment of panic. I don’t want to frighten you, friends, but I do have a little PSA: there are only 10 more Fridays until Christmas. Eek! How can it be?  

6 Fridays until Thanksgiving

CEO Daily Update – 9.29.2020

Happy Tuesday! 

Welcome to the CablesAndKits CEO daily email. Read more about this email by scrolling to the very bottom.


I hope you had a great start to your week yesterday and that your Tuesday is starting off strong. 

As you guessed, I am not Craig. There is only one Craig, and no one can replace him. Haha! Craig is still lurking around but I am filling in for him today on the CEO email and will be off and on for the next month or so. (If you missed yesterday’s email, please take a look at it.)  There will be a few people stepping in to fill Craig’s shoes while he is out. One of the ones you will hear from a good bit will be his lovely wife, Christin. Besides being the wife to Craig, which will probably inspire plenty of entertaining discussions in and of itself, she is also the Co-Founder/Co-CEO, Chief Advisor, our CK “Mama Bear”, a Homeschool Mom / Working Mom, and just an all-round cool woman. You will def want to join us daily to get her insights and perspective on things. (Probably along with a funny story or two about Craig.)

Real quick intro for me…my name is Jason and I am the eCommerce Manager here at CK. I oversee the website and content for the business. I like long walks on the beach, Italian food, and…oh sorry…wrong intro…

This is my second stint here at CK, but I have been here for almost 8 years in total. I love interacting with people and really digging into what “helps” a person out, personally and professionally. I mean, any website can sell a product, but I want us (CK) to do more than just sell a product, I want us to HELP people. All of this was the big idea behind creating the CK Learning Center. I wanted a place to provide helpful information to the public that will help them make educated decisions, answer questions, and just be better at their jobs. This is our vision for the whole website – the product pages, homepage, or really any page on the site is beneficial to anyone who ends up there. 

All that being said, if you have any ideas for our site or topics you would like for us to write about or provide info on, please let me know. (You can respond to this email…Craig is still reading responses, so feel free to say hello to him as well) I would appreciate the feedback and ideas! 

Thanks for reading today,
Jason

CEO Daily Update – 8.18.2020

Happy Tuesday!  

Welcome to the CablesAndKits CEO daily email. Read more about this email by scrolling to the very bottom. 

Rerun included a link to a video Jonathan and I recorded in her product spotlight yesterday. I didn’t watch it till after the email was sent out and was like wow, I look different! It’s crazy how different a person can look after losing 50lbs! As an added bonus I was in an especially goofy mood that day and as you can see, I started the video off laughing. We couldn’t seem to get a good take and I got the giggles. Jonathan wasn’t as amused as I was – lol.  

I also mentioned in my email that my wife and I are 5 days apart. I failed to mention we are 5 days and four years apart (she just turned 38 and I turned 42). That reminded me of a cool story … I had an executive that worked for me several years ago. He and I were meeting with a consultant and somehow wedding anniversaries came up. One of them said theirs was in a particular month, and the other one said that theirs was as well. Then one mentioned the day of the month, and the other’s was on the same day. Then one of them mentioned the year and it turned out they were both married on the same exact day more than 40 years earlier! So odd! I of course kept drilling hoping it was the same TIME but there was a difference of several hours.  

RV Adventure Update below!  


Today’s Product Spotlight from Rerun (AKA Rebecca):

CP-PWR-CUBE-4 

As many of us have transitioned from working in the office to working from home, we’ve had to find ways to power our devices so that there is no interruption to business! This is where products like the CP-PWR-CUBE-4 come in clutch! This power cube is a replacement power supply for Cisco CP-88XX, CP-89XX, and CP-99XX VoIP Phones. Check out our product page to see all compatible models. As usual, we have you covered whether you need Cisco original Factory Sealed or Refurbished. We even offer our very own CK Branded model as well as a CK Branded Model w/Straight Plug! Both of the CK versions are on sale now for a limited time at prices that can’t be beat! 


From Joe, our friendly Safety Supplies Product Marketer:

As you all may know by now, these emails are written the night before you receive them. Last night I had mentioned Clorox wipes are in stock… by the time I woke up this morning I was shocked (but not too much) to see you guys had bought everything we had! Completely ran us dry till the next shipment! With the current craze over brands like Clorox I’d like to direct you to our Disinfectant Sprays. I did everything I could to give our customers the absolute BEST options, which not surprising is Clorox.
