Georgia Department of Economic Development

Logistics

This week I sat down with Jannine Miller, Director, Center of Innovation for Logistics at the Georgia Department of Economic Development.  We talked about how the state of Georgia places a great deal of priority on maintaining and expanding our transportation infrastructure.  Jannine shared how effective logistics management can foster significant economic development.

She also discussed how the entities that comprise our logistics capabilities across the various modes gives rise to growth opportunities for small businesses around the area.  This comes from the need for “last mile” carriers who can move the freight to its final destination from larger distribution centers, as well as countless other ways to provide vendor/supplier services to larger companies that need to extend their capacity.

We also were pleased to have VP of Business Development for NOWaccount, Kim Humphreys on the show.  We talked about how their merchant services solution provides B2B companies experiencing some delayed payment of invoices access to aging AR funds in 3-5 days for only a 2.5% fee.

With this already-earned capital can fund new growth and/or allow a company to be able to afford to take on larger orders that could otherwise not be possible.

OlensSitAttorney General Sam Olens

Attorney General Sam Olens appeared as a Special Guest today on Atlanta Legal Experts Radio.   We are helping him get the word out about his project in fighting against teens abuse of prescription drugs, “We’re Not Gonna Take It,” his fight against the current epidemic of Human Trafficking, and his endorsement of the “Georgia Legal Food Frenzy,” a competition among many attorneys and law firms raising money for the Atlanta Community Food Bank to fight against childhood hunger.

Biography of Attorney General Sam Olens

Sam Olens was re-elected to a second term as Georgia’s 53rd Attorney General on November 4, 2014.

As Attorney General, Olens is committed to serving Georgians by defending the U.S. and Georgia Constitutions and upholding the rule of law.

He has fought for stronger laws to protect Georgians. In 2011, he worked with legislators to strengthen the penalties for sex trafficking, making Georgia’s law one of the toughest in the nation. In 2012, he spearheaded the first comprehensive revision of Georgia’s sunshine laws in more than a decade. In 2013, he led the effort to stem the epidemic of prescription drug abuse with a law that requires pain management clinics to be licensed and regulated.

Olens has also worked to protect Georgia’s rights and natural resources. He led Georgia’s legal challenge against the Affordable Care Act and continues to defend Georgia from federal regulatory overreach. Olens has represented the State in crucial litigation to preserve Georgia’s water rights and removed legal barriers that were delaying the critical deepening of the Savannah Harbor.

In 2013, Olens was elected by his peers to Chair the Southern Region of the National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG). Olens currently serves on numerous NAAG Committees to include Substance Abuse, Human Trafficking, Law Enforcement and Prosecutorial Relations, Elections and Financial Services Consumer Protection.

Prior to being elected to Attorney General, Olens was Chairman of the Cobb County Board of Commissioners, serving from August 2002 through March 2010.

From December 2004 through 2009, Olens served as Chairman of the Atlanta Regional Commission. He was appointed as Vice-Chair of the Metropolitan North Georgia Water Planning District from 2005 through March 2010.

Olens also devotes much time assisting various non-profit organizations.

Olens is the recipient of numerous awards and honors, including the 2013 Emory Law School Distinguished Alumni Award, the 2008 Tom Bradley Leadership Award by the National Association of Regional Councils and the 2007 “Excellence in Public Service Award” by the University of Georgia’s Carl Vinson Institute. For the past 11 years, Georgia Trend magazine has listed Olens as one of the “100 Most Influential Georgians.” In 2011, the Cobb Chamber of Commerce honored Olens for his dedication to community and philanthropic service by naming their annual community service award the “Sam Olens Business Community Service Award.”

Olens graduated from the Emory University School of Law in 1983. He is a registered mediator/arbitrator with the Georgia Office of Dispute Resolution. He has been admitted to practice law in Georgia and the District of Columbia.

Olens and his wife Lisa have two children, Lauren and Jonathan.

Aptean was launched in 2012, but we have a much deeper history than that—our core products like Ross ERP, Pivotal CRM and Respond Complaints Management were once stand-alone companies with track records and customers that go back as far as 20 years.

Stories like theirs really struck me when I joined the company last year—Aptean customers are more like partners, they trust us and have evolved with us over the length of our long relationship. When we make upgrades and enhancements to the product, they are intricately involved with improvements and new functionality. That’s a tremendous sign of the value we’re providing and the voice that we give them in shaping the product.
