“He gave his life serving our country, and through these beautiful gestures, the memory of Chris’ life was honored.Welcome Back to Episode 16 of Wrestling With TyMe!!! & The Topic is WRESTLEMANIA 38!!! Night #1 To Set if Off! & Night #2 To Finish if Off! Full Review and all other regular shenanigans. “We are blown away to see how many people carried out a random act of kindness in Chris’ memory,” Lambert said. They asked to pay it forward to another customer and then more followed. Lambert said they first used the card and money for a young couple with a baby. “Throughout the day, this one beautiful gesture became something even more beautiful,” he said. Lambert said she asked if employees could hand out the postcard to customers so they could also carry out a random act of kindness in Chris’ honor. Our family enjoyed savory breakfast sandwiches, as well as a delicious carrot cake. That’s when the customer said she wanted to do something in his memory. A delicious assortment of coffees, lattes, and other specialty drinks. Specialty Drinks Chocolate Mint Latte Milky Way Mocha Carmilla Royale Latte Nutty Monkey Mocha Macanilla Latte Chocolate Covered Raspberries Cinnamon. “Through the tears, she was able to tell me with a light laugh that whenever he and his buddies would go out to a coffee shop, his friends would all get black coffee and he would always get a big pink smoothie with extra whipped cream on it,” Lambert said. He was only three weeks from returning home. Slutman was killed in a roadside bombing on April 8, WCBS reported.

And remember to take care of yourself during the holidays. Until the new year, Antiquated Future

EXO’rDIUM DOT experience!! Day 2 concert day, the final one.
As you guys can see from the title... I am starting to feel emotional T-T Yes, the very last concert of EXO’rDIUM in Seoul, it is pretty sad to watch it end, but I am thankful to have ended this concert with EXO personally! 
Day 2 started very early in the morning, we gather at 615am in the lobby and the staff brought us to COEX for EXO’rDIUM surround viewing concert! Basically it is a theater that has large screens which surrounds the front part of the sides as well! Explains why it is called surround viewing!! 
I sat relatively infront! I am guessing the row starts off with row A, I picked the ticket which settled me down at Row H and seat 22! Aisle seat again!! Basically it was a recorded version of EXO’rDIUM in Seoul start, they had Baekhyun stripping (OMG!), I was pretty tired as the screening started at 7amkst... Can you imagine me watching this with my eyes half opened?? HAHAHA, my eyes only light up when I saw Baekhyun’s ABS LOLOL. (I actually almost fell asleep while watching it... It wasn’t boring, I was just too tired from the previous day concert)
Tumblr media
The screening started at 7amkst and lasted for 1hr 20minutes, so the entire show ended at about 930amkst. We were let off from there to go tour around Artium ourselves and of course, SHOPPING! 
As we stepped out off the theater, we were instructed to drop our letter for exo in this big box. I was rather disappointed that we couldn’t leave it at backstage for them or something??? I heard from the previous time fans left it at backstage, but I am assuming because Jamsil stadium is a bit inconvenient so they told us to drop in a box instead. 
My letters to Baekhyun and Chanyeol!! Baekhyun’s letter was really long and sincere, something that was really close to my heart. I told him my life wish list! 
For Baekhyun to be healthy and happy. 
For Baekhyun’s love ones to be healthy and happy too! including Myeongrong-ie!
To go to Baekhyun Oppa fansign! (when is this ever going to happen lol)
To do well in University and meet exo proudly again (I think!!) 
I also told Baekhyun that I am thankful for him, and that he was the one who gave me lots of strength and motivation when bad things happen to me. I was able to pull through so many difficulties thanks to him, and of course quoted “Life is only a path full of efforts” and signed off with my name and where I was from!
As for Letter to Chanyeollie, I decided to be funny and wrote, 
“Chanyeol Oppa, Toben-ie is so cute!” and signed off with my name and where I was from as well too~ 
Tumblr media
After that, I headed off to Artium to do some shopping, as you know, Baekhyun stuff always get sold out (ugh this is annoying ya know sobs), so I decided to get a Lay keychain!!! I know it’s quite surprising, but I cannot help but appreciate Lay more these days. I really love the way he expresses himself, I was yearning for his appearance at EXO’rDIUM DOT even more... 
This Keychain is 23,000won, approx $28.50sgd (ignore the receipt behind lol, 22,000won is something else which I will mention in a while) It’s so pretty and its actually the same colour as Baekhyun’s keychain!! Sadly I couldn’t get Baek or Chan’s keychain... 
Tumblr media
After that, I headed off the SUM market to get some sweets! Well as mentioned, I am a chanbaek trash... so you can expect the photo below~
Each container of sweet costs 11,000won each (approx. $13.60sgd SO EX BUT I STILL GOT IT), so the picture above with the receipt 22,000won is actually for this HAHAHA!! 
And if anyone is curious about the price of the band, it is actually 13,000won each (approx. $16sgd) It fits perfectly for the bottle produced, but not any other bottles, so if you bought it like me without the bottle, you can just simply clip it onto your bag as display~~ or around your wrist like me during concert!! 
Tumblr media
After purchasing all the items, I mingled around and waited for time to pass. The staff instructed us to meet outside COEX ARTIUM to bring us for lunch event that was included in the package as well! 
We were served with Bibimbap!!! yum yum in the tum! There was even EXO Mat at the bottom! If you look closely, do you see the soup at the left? The soup was so hot it condensed at the bottom and on Chanyeol’s face OTL.. I was so sad, but I requested for a brand new mat before I left the restaurant so I could get to keep it. It was just normal paper quality~ 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ahhhh~ our Hyunnie~~ *-*
Tumblr media
After lunch, I told our guide that we will leave on our own as we didn’t want to wait till 3pmkst to head to the concert venue. So I just left and took the train to Sports complex station where Jamsil stadium is located (FYI it is not located at Jamsil station guys) 
Upon reaching Jamsil stadium, I headed off to where Cookie-nim gave out her fansupport in hoping to receive it!!! Great news is! I got it!!! Super cute transparent fan by cookie-nim! I really love her fanart!! Super love! (if you know me well enough, you should know I really like her fanart that I even bought her photocards when she sold it)
Tumblr media
Ribbon Baek!!! One of my favourite style of B! I am so thankful that stylist-nim gave him this image! If you want Ribbon B photos, please check here!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Chanbaek fan that I ran for from the other side of the Stadium just to get it... Thankfully I got it :’)!!
Tumblr media
My second favourtie fanartist!!! 5g__5g-nim! 
Tumblr media
So now lets talk about the postcard set that I got from the Merchandise booth!! Actually... just look at them, I don’t even need to say anything. It is just pure beauty!!! If you want scanned version please let me know, I can scan it~
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
After collecting all the fansupport, I decided to enter the concert venue and get settled down! 
Day 2′s fansupport!! 
Tumblr media
Last recognition photo for EXO’rDIUM DOT T-T
Tumblr media
I was much closer to the stage!!! I was able to see all of them clearly!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ah.. too bright whoops... I don’t have much photos tbh, please check out fansite HD photos instead of mine HAHAHA But can you see the hanged up posters shining? It was so beautiful~
Tumblr media
Day 2 concert started as usual with Monster! Fanchants for every song was so loud and clear, I am indeed honoured to be part of this! 
(I don’t have any photos of the performance so don’t expect more haha) 
The last concert went really well without any injuries, I sincerely watched every performance with care and make sure I remember them clearly. I had my reasons of not recording, although some might think that it is a pity that I did not record since I was already there. But, honestly, I wanted to watch their performance with my eyes, not watching them through my camera... It might be a pity I did not record to rewatch it again, but fully experiencing it with my own eyes it way better than staring at my phone throughout the entire concert right? 
Towards the end, EXO came out with surprise again, this time asking us for a date!
Let’s go on a summer date!
Sweetest angels that brought me to tears... 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Through the last EXO’rDIUM concert, I experienced so much emotional breakdowns, I watch how Baekhyun stripped, become a hot guy, picking up bad boy concept and then suddenly turning into the sweetest angel that looks at fans sincerely~ 
The concert ended with the boys walking towards the backstage, I left Jamsil stadium with watery eyes and a heavy heart, not knowing when I will be able to see them again as I am an I-fan. But it came across my mind that I am actually very blessed to be able to even meet exo in real life, and that I will cherish this wonderful memory created with exo in Seoul. Experiencing EXO’rDIUM DOT concert in Seoul at Jamsil stadium is really one life goal that I was lucky enough to experience. It was definitely a once in a life time experience, I am thankful and thankful again, no matter what... I wouldn’t change my love for them, let’s run this journey together EXO... 
As EXO’rDIUM comes to an end, if you guys really want me to talk about how it felt. Honestly, there are no words to describe how I felt... It was a really breath-taking concert, seeing how exo members are able to play freely with fans as there was absolutely no language barrier and korean fans here really give their best to exo. Astonishing fanchants and cheers just for the one and only exo... No wonder the boys always enjoy Seoul concert so much! 
I watched the boys let loose of themselves and always thanking fans for giving them so much love and support, and that without fans, they won’t be able to hold a concert at Jamsil. 
Baekhyun mentioned: “EXO is like a book that Lee Soo Man created, EXO-L is the key pen that writes history with exo, without a pen, a book would never write it’s history, and because of EXO-L, EXO can proudly perform in Jamsil stadium” 
Baekhyun really brings out the best words for EXO-Ls, other members has also poured out their sincere thoughts for exo-Ls. When I saw Chanyeol from afar wiping his tears, I broke a little, to know how tiring it was for all of them, and that they have endured so much just to give us the best stage. What broke me further was when the screen filmed Baekhyun looking at fans sincerely through the confetti... I was quietly holding back my tears. I normally only look at previews and be like,”awww Baekhyun so sweet”, but when I personally experienced looking at him like that, it was really emotional, looking at him quietly looking at fans made me want to protect and hug him tightly. 
EXO really gave it their all for the last concert of EXO’rDIUM, longer chats, super power showcase with lightsticks, support cards for EXO-Ls, not forgetting how Suho conveyed to us that Yixing missed us a lot. 
I hope every I-fan actually experience an EXO concert in Seoul yourself, you will then fully understand how it truly feels and why Kfans are so so so so loyal and dedicated to EXO. I felt like I wasn’t a good enough fan, and that I didn’t love EXO enough with all my heart. After experiencing the concert, I finally knew why, it is an indescribable feeling. You just have to experience it yourself to understand.  
To every fan reading this, it is ok if EXO never really looked into your eyes and know your existence, they know we are there for them in their hearts. They have worked half of their youth to achieve their dreams, fulfill our desires and wishes, I believe they love every single one of us even though they cannot reach out to all of us. Please continue to support EXO in their future comebacks and schedules, let’s continue to love them even more! 
Thank you all for waiting for this patiently! Thank you for constantly cheering on me as well, I am happy to share this emotion and experience here. To end off, thank you again.

thank you exo

End of the Year Marketing Strategies
The year is winding down, the weather is cooling off, tax season is around the corner, and you’re already thinking of ways you can grow your tree service business next year. Besides word of mouth, how else can you reach new potential customers?
We’ve put together ten strategies that will be sure to get you new clients! They range from 100% free to quite costly, but think of it as a marketing tax write-off!
1- Social Media | Free / $
Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest. The list goes on and on. The best thing about social media is that almost EVERYONE, EVERYWHERE is on multiple platforms EVERYDAY, for an average of 2 1/2 hours per day. When thinking about marketing, it’s a no-brainer--go where the people are! Plus it can be 100% free!
Most of these platforms have the option to pay to advertise more. If you’re running your social media right and posting helpful, entertaining content often enough, you shouldn’t need to do that. Taking 5 minutes out of your day to write a post and share an image of your latest job is like calling thousands of your “closest friends” and having an in depth conversation with them about what you do, how skilled you are at doing it, and offering to come and do it for them too. Not only that, social media has the power of the share button so now you can get in front of thousands of your friends closest friends! This allows you to reach people you would otherwise never talk to, and may not know how to reach. Give it a try! Start a Facebook page sharing your daily jobs. Open an Instagram and connect with others by showing behind the scenes clips of your day in stories. Tweet monthly promos out on Twitter.
2- Google My Business Listing | Free / $
Google business listings and reviews are the new yellow pages and the new word of mouth. They are powerful, free, and don’t require a lot of maintenance. If someone is looking for a tree service near them and they have NO idea where to look, what is the first thing they are probably going to do? Pick up their phone and google "tree service." Paid ads will be the first results, followed by a map of their local area and the companies that are within that area. Google pages for these businesses directly follow. Only after that are websites and then social media links. If you don’t have a Google business listing, then you are missing out on taking up prime real estate on Google AND the opportunity to let other people tell the world how pleased they were with your services through customer reviews. If someone knows nothing about you they will trust the public reviews as these are honest, cannot be edited, and bad reviews cannot be deleted, so encourage your clients to leave their feedback online!
3- Build a Website | $200+
This is the first option that isn’t free, but it’s the first online investment you can make that shows your professionalism and holds other great benefits. If you’re slightly computer savvy you can probably make a basic, free site with a free template on a friendly builder platform (such as Squarespace or Wix) for around $200. This will give you an online presence that can hold useful information for inquiring clients like contact info, experience, certifications, services offered, and more. Your website can give people the option to reach out to you via email or message box in case they have a busy schedule or don’t like talking on the phone. If you’re willing to invest more money and time into performing SEO (Search Engine Optimization) throughout your site, your chances of showing up on the first page of Google results is much higher, helping you reach thousands of additional people monthly.
4- Email Marketing | Free
One of the perks of having a website is that you can easily start an email list! Sure, you can gather the emails of current clients, but what if you could easily gather emails of potential clients and talk to them whenever you wanted! Free sites like Mailchimp will connect with your website so when people drop in their email is gets added to an organized list that you can then send professional looking emails including text, images, videos, and more. This is helpful because now you can send out seasonal promos, pruning reminders, spring plant health care tips, and so much more to encourage previous clients to have you back on their property, or give potential clients the incentive to call you and have you come take a look at their trees. This is getting you in front of numerous people, hopefully on a monthly basis (if you can manage), who have already shown interest in you. You may wonder, why have an email list when you can just post on Facebook? Think of these people as your VIPs. They have gone the extra step to be involved with your company. Feel free to encourage and reward that engagement by giving more detailed tips, better promos, etc. PLUS, with social media, you have no way of knowing if your post will reach everyone’s feed when you want it to. If they have 1,500 friends and have liked 500 other businesses, you’re taking a chance of getting drown out. With email, you KNOW your letter will be sitting in their inboxes the next time they open their email. It’s a guaranteed line of communication!
5- Reward Referrals | $10+
This is a simple tactic of saying thank you to your past clients with a gift card every time they send a new client your way. If you entice them to talk about you with a $10 coffee gift card, a $50 dinner gift card, or $100 cash they will be more likely to go out of their way to tell their friends, family, or strangers about you because who doesn’t like being rewarded for their hard work? We all know word of mouth is the most powerful marketing tool we have available to us. Friends trust friends, but we can't always control these conversations. This is a minor way of taking control of that conversation through rewards. Considering most tree jobs can be well over $300 or more, a $10 gift card is the cheapest marketing you could ever pay for.
6- Holiday cards with Discount | $10+
Everyone likes a little snail mail around the holidays. Pop into your favorite clients' mailboxes with a thank you card for hiring you and give them an incentive to have you back on their property next year with a discount code. 5-10% or $50-$100 off their next newly quoted service may just be the push they need to have you back to trim up some overlooked trees, provide additional plant health care, etc.
7- Limb Snap | $1.99 per card
Slightly creepy, slightly genius--Limb Snap is a mobile app for helping tree service companies reach potential customers. Take a walk down the road in an area that you would love to work. When you see a tree that could use some tender-loving-care, snap a pic of the tree, upload the address and your suggestion for how to improve the situation. Limb Snap then makes a postcard with your image and recommendations, and sends it right to the homeowner's mailbox. Sure, a lot of us throw away junk mail for services, but guaranteed if you receive a post card in the mail for services with a picture of YOUR tree on it, you'll pay more attention.
8- Truck Decal or Wrap | $15+
Most tree services already drive in trucks. You already have a billboard, so why leave it blank? It’s not every day someone sees a bucket truck, a crane, or even a hefty chip truck. At the very least, get your business name and number on a magnet and stick it on your door so the neighbors of your client can reach you. Best case scenario- custom wrap the whole truck! Humans are curious, and anything different can attract our attention. Plus, when sitting in traffic it gives us something to read. Use your trucks as a mobile means of marketing and advertising your services!
9- Home / Garden Shows | Custom
These events can be a bit costly to be in, but it has the ability to get you in front of thousands of local people in a short period of time, all who are potential clients showing interest in their home and lawns. Meeting people and forming a personal connection is something that will never be done over social media. The back and forth conversation, the ability to answer questions, and just the precedence of you being there over other companies is huge. When people don’t know where to turn they won’t always shop or call around, some people just want it done, hassle free, with someone they can trust. This environment allows for that.
If you don’t want to set up a booth, just be an attendee yourself and make connections with the vendors, have casual conversation with other attendees. Just getting out into your community and socializing, letting people know you exist, can do wonders for a business.
10- Host your own local Event | Free / $
Don’t discount your knowledge and skills as basic. This knowledge isn't basic to people outside of the tree world! Hold an event where you can provide useful training for homeowners to do some tree work themselves. In example, how to make proper pruning cuts on ornamentals, the proper depth to lay chips around a tree, when to not trim Oak trees, how to look for fungus and pests. You may wonder why giving away free information for services you could ultimately charge for would be useful, and it’s because it puts you in a position of power, and a mindset of giving. You are the professional. You have knowledge far above and beyond this. You are here because you care about trees and want to give back to your local community. It puts your name out there, it gets you in front of people, and it gives them tons of reasons to call you before anyone else. People are looking to support those who support them. This is a great cycle of giving and getting, and best of all, it’s another free option that just takes a little bit of your time.

If someone knows nothing about you they will trust the public reviews as these are honest, cannot be edited, and bad reviews cannot be deleted, so encourage your clients to leave their feedback online!
3- Build a Website | $200+
This is the first option that isn’t free, but it’s the first online investment you can make that shows your professionalism and holds other great benefits. If you’re slightly computer savvy you can probably make a basic, free site with a free template on a friendly builder platform (such as Squarespace or Wix) for around $200. This will give you an online presence that can hold useful information for inquiring clients like contact info, experience, certifications, services offered, and more. Your website can give people the option to reach out to you via email or message box in case they have a busy schedule or don’t like talking on the phone. If you’re willing to invest more money and time into performing SEO (Search Engine Optimization) throughout your site, your chances of showing up on the first page of Google results is much higher, helping you reach thousands of additional people monthly.
4- Email Marketing | Free
One of the perks of having a website is that you can easily start an email list! Sure, you can gather the emails of current clients, but what if you could easily gather emails of potential clients and talk to them whenever you wanted! Free sites like Mailchimp will connect with your website so when people drop in their email is gets added to an organized list that you can then send professional looking emails including text, images, videos, and more. This is helpful because now you can send out seasonal promos, pruning reminders, spring plant health care tips, and so much more to encourage previous clients to have you back on their property, or give potential clients the incentive to call you and have you come take a look at their trees. This is getting you in front of numerous people, hopefully on a monthly basis (if you can manage), who have already shown interest in you. You may wonder, why have an email list when you can just post on Facebook? Think of these people as your VIPs. They have gone the extra step to be involved with your company. Feel free to encourage and reward that engagement by giving more detailed tips, better promos, etc. PLUS, with social media, you have no way of knowing if your post will reach everyone’s feed when you want it to. If they have 1,500 friends and have liked 500 other businesses, you’re taking a chance of getting drown out. With email, you KNOW your letter will be sitting in their inboxes the next time they open their email. It’s a guaranteed line of communication!
5- Reward Referrals | $10+
This is a simple tactic of saying thank you to your past clients with a gift card every time they send a new client your way. If you entice them to talk about you with a $10 coffee gift card, a $50 dinner gift card, or $100 cash they will be more likely to go out of their way to tell their friends, family, or strangers about you because who doesn’t like being rewarded for their hard work? We all know word of mouth is the most powerful marketing tool we have available to us. Friends trust friends, but we can't always control these conversations. This is a minor way of taking control of that conversation through rewards. Considering most tree jobs can be well over $300 or more, a $10 gift card is the cheapest marketing you could ever pay for.
6- Holiday cards with Discount | $10+
Everyone likes a little snail mail around the holidays. Pop into your favorite clients' mailboxes with a thank you card for hiring you and give them an incentive to have you back on their property next year with a discount code. 5-10% or $50-$100 off their next newly quoted service may just be the push they need to have you back to trim up some overlooked trees, provide additional plant health care, etc.
7- Limb Snap | $1.99 per card
Slightly creepy, slightly genius--Limb Snap is a mobile app for helping tree service companies reach potential customers. Take a walk down the road in an area that you would love to work. When you see a tree that could use some tender-loving-care, snap a pic of the tree, upload the address and your suggestion for how to improve the situation. Limb Snap then makes a postcard with your image and recommendations, and sends it right to the homeowner's mailbox. Sure, a lot of us throw away junk mail for services, but guaranteed if you receive a post card in the mail for services with a picture of YOUR tree on it, you'll pay more attention.
8- Truck Decal or Wrap | $15+
Most tree services already drive in trucks. You already have a billboard, so why leave it blank? It’s not every day someone sees a bucket truck, a crane, or even a hefty chip truck. At the very least, get your business name and number on a magnet and stick it on your door so the neighbors of your client can reach you. Best case scenario- custom wrap the whole truck! Humans are curious, and anything different can attract our attention. Plus, when sitting in traffic it gives us something to read. Use your trucks as a mobile means of marketing and advertising your services!
9- Home / Garden Shows | Custom
These events can be a bit costly to be in, but it has the ability to get you in front of thousands of local people in a short period of time, all who are potential clients showing interest in their home and lawns. Meeting people and forming a personal connection is something that will never be done over social media. The back and forth conversation, the ability to answer questions, and just the precedence of you being there over other companies is huge. When people don’t know where to turn they won’t always shop or call around, some people just want it done, hassle free, with someone they can trust. This environment allows for that.
If you don’t want to set up a booth, just be an attendee yourself and make connections with the vendors, have casual conversation with other attendees. Just getting out into your community and socializing, letting people know you exist, can do wonders for a business.
10- Host your own local Event | Free / $
Don’t discount your knowledge and skills as basic. This knowledge isn't basic to people outside of the tree world! Hold an event where you can provide useful training for homeowners to do some tree work themselves. In example, how to make proper pruning cuts on ornamentals, the proper depth to lay chips around a tree, when to not trim Oak trees, how to look for fungus and pests. You may wonder why giving away free information for services you could ultimately charge for would be useful, and it’s because it puts you in a position of power, and a mindset of giving. You are the professional. You have knowledge far above and beyond this. You are here because you care about trees and want to give back to your local community. It puts your name out there, it gets you in front of people, and it gives them tons of reasons to call you before anyone else. People are looking to support those who support them. This is a great cycle of giving and getting, and best of all, it’s another free option that just takes a little bit of your time.
