About Rick

    Although this is a new adventure, writing has been a part of his life
even from the college days. The creative writing courses gave insight
into the possibilities of  written words. The multitude of other courses
cemented the skills learned in the writing classes by requiring him to
write clear, logical and often clever papers on a wide range of subjects
including arts, science and business.
    One of the best sources of education is not a college or university;
it is starting your own business. When you get an "A" in that school it
is ecstasy, and when you get an "F", the pain is real, as are the
consequences. Rick has had his own successful business a couple of
times in his life, first with an irrigation company and later with a
construction company. In both business's advertising was crucial,
there was simply no other way to get the phone ringing. He was a
diligent contractor and received a lot of referrals through "word of
mouth" but found out that with a good ad campaign he could multiply
the effect of a good reputation.  The other thing he learned is that not
all advertisements are equal. The price for the space may be the same
but an imaginative ad would be remembered better, thereby lowering
the cost per response.
