Taking the Guesswork Out of Vitamins and Supplements, with Laurie Coello, Nutrishop Roswell

North Fulton Business Radio, Episode 691)

Laurie Coello, owner of Nutrishop Roswell, talked with host John Ray about her experience of getting healthy and deciding to open a Nutrishop in Roswell to help others regain a healthy lifestyle. Laurie shared how Nutrishop is different than the big box competitors, tools they use like the Body Composition Machine, the quality of their vitamins and supplements, their personalized service, success stories, and much more.

North Fulton Business Radio is broadcast from the North Fulton studio of Business RadioX® inside Renasant Bank in Alpharetta.

Laurie Coello owns Nutrishop Roswell. Laurie can be reached at the shop at (470) 223-4909.

Since 2003, Nutrishop® has helped individuals like you achieve various health and fitness goals by offering top-quality dietary and nutritional supplements and services coupled with unparalleled personalized attention – all at guaranteed low prices.

At Nutrishop®, their focus is on your results!

Founder and CEO, Bryon McLendon, turned down a lucrative career opportunity to pursue his passion of helping others live a fit, happy and healthy lifestyle. Unemployed yet determined, he drained his bank account and opened his first retail nutrition store in 1997. With laser-sharp focus, he went to work every single day, morning to night. His wife, Tania, a personal trainer and former college track athlete, was his rock, encouraging him along the way. Within two years, Bryon had opened five locations.

After gaining several years of knowledge and expertise in the industry, Bryon decided to start his very own company, thus NUTRISHOP®, Inc. was born with the first store opening in Norco, California in 2003. Bryon extended the opportunity to other like-minded, hard-working entrepreneurs who were passionate about helping others. Founded on the pillars of honesty, integrity, trust, opportunity and good ol’ fashioned hard work, our NUTRISHOP® family grew.

“We have store owners who hated their jobs and now they’re able to do something they love while changing lives for the better and providing for their families,” says Bryon. “That gets me excited!”

Pre-Retirement Planning for Business Owners, with Tony Van Gelder, Van Gelder Financial

Pre-Retirement Planning for Business Owners, with Tony Van Gelder, Van Gelder Financial

00:00 /

North Fulton Business Radio, Episode 690)

Tony Van Gelder, a Certified Financial Planner and Owner of Van Gelder Financial, joined the show to talk about his career journey, becoming a financial planner, how to choose a financial planner, the value of having an advisor younger than you, how pre-retirement business owners should be planning, and more.

North Fulton Business Radio is broadcast from the North Fulton studio of Business RadioX® inside Renasant Bank in Alpharetta.

It’s Van Gelder Financial’s belief that a Financial Plan is really a Life Plan. While there are the technical aspects, a properly built plan should:

Help to articulate the “why” behind your plan
Clearly identify your personal and financial goals and how to achieve them
Establish clear action steps to accomplish the desired outcome
Be written and explained in an easy-to-understand way
Evolve into a living document; not something that gathers dust on the shelf.

They manage the investment of your assets according to your current financial situation, future goals, and risk tolerance level. In saying that, they firmly believe in the power of consistency and do not employ market timing or specific stock selection methods but encourage longer term strategies with periodic reviews and adjustments.

They will work with you to determine the optimal asset allocation based on your unique needs. As independent financial advisors they are not motivated by sales targets or commissions which means they will put your interests above anything else. Once an initial plan is crafted and underway, the investments are consistently monitored to ensure they not only meet your needs, but also adapt to the changing financial landscape.

Van Gelder supports families and individuals who want to help plan for their child’s or loved one’s college education. They can help with the decision on which investment and savings vehicle is right for your situation, maximize the tax efficiency, and then put a plan in place to help ensure the money is there when you need it. Alternatively, if you are on the other side of college and currently dealing with student loans, they help to determine your goals and then implement the right repayment strategy that considers your specific situation and circumstance.

Estate planning is not just for the super-rich, but instead something everyone should consider. It’s about ensuring that when something happens to you, the ones you care about won’t have to guess about desired outcomes. Estate Planning gives family members the freedom to grieve and the comfort of knowing they’re honoring your wishes. Having a plan for your estate means you can continue to help your loved ones reach goals you set together, even after you are gone. They help clients look after their investments including insurance policies, savings accounts, and overall goals, to create a plan designed to set yourself and family up for financial success.

The foundation of the business remains its full-service catering operations for large, social events including weddings and mitzvahs.

In 2005, she was hired for the Georgia Aquarium’s opening sales team and worked alongside Chef Wolfgang Puck. Her career continued up the corporate ladder including the opportunity to work in sales for Atlanta’s premier event planner, Tony Conway, and Legendary Events.

Molly was selected for the 2023-2024 Class of Leadership North Fulton.

Chef Matthew is the gift that keeps on giving. He is given carte blanche to pursue his passion in the Three Sisters kitchen. He’s edgy, original, authentic, and innately understands flavoring, technique, and presentation. His “never rattled” demeanor allows him to check all the boxes. No kitchen? No problem. Dietary restrictions? Gotcha covered. Last-minute pop-up event? We’re on it.

Matthew began his love affair with food as a line cook at a Sandals Resort in his native Jamaica. His diligence and talent allowed him to quickly work his way up the “food chain” from Sous Chef at a leading catering company, to a popular Atlanta restaurant, to the Executive Chef position at Three Sisters Catering. Celebrating his 13th year with Three Sisters, he is known for his ability to create menus for clients that satisfies the diverse palettes of their guest no matter how grand or intimate the occasion.

His first love may be food and cooking, but he also loves his family, friends, and traveling. Chef was recently nominated for Atlanta Business Chronicle’s 40 Under 40.

Keys to Retaining Talent, with Eric Cooley, Strack, Inc.

Eric Cooley: I think a lot of construction has high turnover and we’re not that different as it comes to that and that’s one thing we’re really focused on.

We’ve had to, as we’ve tried to grow, we’ve also had to replace. But I think, the key things we look at is, we start training from day one. So a lot of folks from an orientation perspective, they may come in, have you just sign some papers. We’re running a four day orientation program right now. Come in, you learn the standard operating procedures for the company, get safety training, you have an opportunity to go through we’ve got equipment simulators to get familiarization with the equipment. And really making that investment starting in day one.

I think living out our core values, that’s something that’s key to trying to retain them. If we’ve sold them on something, it’s important that we live that out. They’re able to see that demonstrated to hold on to them.

I think Jonathan touched a little bit on the training. So we’ve got this frontline leadership training program we built. We’re also building an operator training program where we’ve promoted four guys from inside the business and they’re going to go out and help on the job sites to help train and really bring up the level of experience and understanding to some of the newer employees.

Because part of this, attracting new talent means we might be looking at folks from other industries.
