Today I will be interviewing two rangers who work for a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers project near Branson, Mo. It is located in a very beautiful waterway that offers lots of natural recreation opportunities. Matt Robbins and Angela Stone are rangers who work for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The agency is tasked with overseeing waterways created by dams and other big projects. Matt and Angela work at Table Rock Lake, which is situated along the White River just outside the Branson, Mo., city limits. The corps has established campgrounds, visitors centers, bike trails, picnic areas and other fun things to do that promotes being outdoors. The agency hires Workampers to work in the visitor's center, which they have done for several years. But, this year, Workampers will also be hired to serve as camp hosts. Camp hosts interact with visitors while relaying important water safety information. They also staff a check-in booth, provide some janitorial services and basically serve as the eyes and ears of the ranger staff to report problems. In the visitors center itself, Workamper volunteers staff the front desk to answer questions visitors may have and to orient them to features and services available at the project. They also work with school groups visiting the park on field trips. Some lucky volunteers can wear a costume to entertain kids as Bobber, the water safety dog, while others can help maintain garden beds. The rangers are super-appreciative of Workampers for all the work they do to assist visitors, which reduces the workload for the ranger staff. However, Workampers are not involved in any enforcement activities. They simply alert rangers to problems at the project. Volunteers work about 24 hours a week in exchange for a full-hookup RV site. The project employs couples, singles and families who work anywhere from four to eight hours a day. Camp hosts typically work four days on and have four days off. Angela is more flexible in scheduling people to work in the visitors center. The project asks for a commitment of at least three months in spring, summer and fall. The visitors center is closed during winter. People who want to stay longer are allowed to do so. Table Rock Lake is home to one of the largest visitors centers in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Because it has a rather large classroom and bigger outdoor spaces, the project is a favorite place for teachers to bring students. In fact, the Dewey Short Visitor Center hosted 110,000 people in 2023. Workampers might lead tours, conduct programs or demonstrate how to put on a life preserver. They may also guide students in engaging in conservation or clean-up activities. The project typically seeks 12 to 13 Workampers every 90 days. There are openings yet this summer as camp hosts and in the visitor center. More information about the Table Rock Lake project is available at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers website. Information about Workamper jobs can be found at www.volunteer.gov and searching for Table Rock Lake. Today's episode is sponsored by Workamper News.

Mark Taylor is the founder and Managing Director of eSales Hub and he is the 60th guest on The Next 100 Days Podcast. Mark talks to Kevin Appleby and Graham Arrowsmith about getting your business to rank highly in local search on google and then using inbound telephone calls to generate conversions. Listen to the show and find out all about local search, geo-targeting and how you can take action yourself using some of Mark's ideas in the next 100 days. eSales Hub – the Back Story Mark Taylor started his marketing career with Hilton Hotels. They were an entrepreneurial international multi-site business. Hilton had a fantastic training scheme. Mark was despatched to the Lausanne Business School for a week to train Mark. Hilton made Mark. Eventually Mark decided to further his career at Swallow Hotels. He decided to work with a big brand so Mark left Swallow and worked with Virgin Active, another multi-site retailer. Eighteen months later he was approached to work in private equity. Mark realised that private equity really suited his skill set. In private equity, you buy a business, you trade it up as quickly as you can, to get revenues and profitability up and the you sell it. Mark's first private equity transaction was Nationwide Auto Centres. Coming in half way through the investment cycle, Mark joined a strong management team. This taught Mark how to run a business. The first thought of eSales Hub started on Mark's sofa, with his Nationwide Auto Centre's eBusiness Manager, who Mark had employed, and he said, wouldn't it be great to solve that problem of Yellow Pages. Yellow pages stopped working for local business When Mark was involved with NAC, it was a chain of 217 garages that did MOT, service and mechanical repair. This was 7 years ago. Back then, he had noted that Yellow Pages was not working, despite spending £150,000 per annum on adverts there. They started to spend more and more on Google and they started to get a better return on Google. With just 14% of Nationwide Auto Centres coming from online, with the rest of their transactions came from offline, they invested in building booking engines for MOT, service and tyre-booking. What they found was that there were a lot of phone calls going into the garages directly – ‘can you repair my engine', ‘can you repair my clutch' – stuff that you couldn't sell online because it wasn't a commodity. Back to that sofa. Mark and his colleague Matt Robbins, his eBusiness Manager, discussed wouldn't it be great to bridge that gap between what is an online sale and an offline sale. He asked himself ‘How much more revenue are we really driving from their ‘little' website?' Even though they were raising income from the site at NAC from £6m to £18m in about 12 months, Mark realised the opportunity was much bigger than that and there was a big chunk of it that they weren't tracking because they were only measuring the online transactions they weren't measuring the offline transactions. The NAC business was sold to Halfords and Mark worked there for 6 months. Halfords were quite surprised with NAC's online capability. Halford were a traditional retailer. Go instore or buy online. A simple transaction. Mark's second private equity transaction was with Esporta. They had a chain of 72 health clubs in the UK. In the end, Esporta was sold back to his ex-colleagues at Virgin Active. They had the same business problem. How do they generate leads on a local basis? Solving the Yellow Pages problem When you have got a garage or a health club, back in the day ‘long tail keyword search' would be thumbing through Yellow Pages. Get to the section you wanted. Look through the ads. Choose the one you wanted. And then you'd call it. What Mark was finding with online, is although we grew the sales mix from 2% online to 26% online within about 6 months, most their sales leads were being generated offline. They didn't have the capability to know that online spend was influ...
