  • Member Profile: Home Inspections and Real Estate with Tim and Laura Nelson

    Denise sits down with Tim Nelson and Laura Nelson, a husband and wife team whose complementary careers in home inspection and real estate help families navigate one of the biggest decisions they will ever make. Laura explains how she moved from aviation into real estate and why she loves guiding first‑time buyers. Tim shares how decades of building and renovation experience led him into home inspection and why he enjoys solving problems and teaching clients about their homes.

    They talk about what it is like to work together while keeping their businesses separate so that each client gets objective guidance. Laura discusses the joy of helping buyers reach homeownership and the importance of being a true local expert. Tim explains how he approaches inspections, how he listens to what a house is telling him, and why function matters more than fashion.

    The conversation covers market trends, including the surprising statistic that the average first‑time homebuyer is now forty years old. They also explain why pre‑listing inspections can help sellers plan ahead, how inspection reports should be interpreted, and why a home inspection is a snapshot in time rather than a pass or fail grade.

    • Performance Nutrition

      Angelia and Tim welcome Zach from Performance Nutrition for a conversation about health, supplements, and the story behind his business in Winston‑Salem. Zach shares how his time in Naval Special Warfare shaped his commitment to education and high quality products, and how the lack of knowledgeable supplement stores in the area inspired him to open his own.

    • Member Profile: Base95/Branding 101

      Denise hosts with Tim and welcomes returning guest Hayden Anderson of Base 95 for a conversation focused on branding, strategy, and how small businesses can better communicate who they are. Hayden shares the origin of Base 95, his creative background, and how years of work in media, design, and strategy led him to build a brand‑first agency. He explains the difference between branding and marketing, noting that branding is the foundation that defines identity, message, and perception, while marketing is simply the output. He also describes common issues he sees with small businesses, including inconsistent logos, unclear messaging, and the challenges of do‑it‑yourself design.

      Hayden walks through his brand strategy process, beginning with defining big-picture goals, identifying what a business must be known for, outlining the actions needed now, and determining which gaps must be filled. He then explains how he builds a ninety-day action plan and a brand story framework built around three pillars: the catalyst, the core, and the proof. Denise and Tim highlight how valuable this clarity is for small businesses, especially those that are too close to their own operations to see their brand from a customer’s perspective.

      The conversation also covers finding the right audience, choosing the right associations, and knowing when a client is not the right fit. Hayden shares examples of recent success stories, including work with REMAX, local artist Rob Manarazi, and a long‑standing Winston‑Salem tattoo shop. The episode closes with appreciation for Base 95’s impact on Chamber members and the importance of strong branding for long‑term business growth.

    • Member Profile: PTRC – Internships & Apprenticeships

      Denise and Tim welcome Jacob Thompson of the Piedmont Triad Regional Council to discuss workforce development resources available to employers and job seekers across the region. Jacob explains his role as a business engagement coordinator and outlines how PTRC supports municipalities across 12 counties, with the Workforce Development Board serving 10 of those. He highlights the organization’s broad service areas — including aging, community development, planning, and workforce- all designed to strengthen local government and regional economic growth.

      Jacob details how PTRC helps employers address hiring and training needs through programs such as on-the-job training, wage reimbursements, Work Opportunity Tax Credits, and partnerships with ApprenticeshipNC. He also explains the NextGen youth program, which provides paid work experience for individuals ages 16–24, fully funded through NCWorks, with employers offering mentorship. Job seekers can access resume help, interview prep, and employment-readiness through NCWorks Career Centers, while employers can work directly with Jacob to participate in available programs.

      The conversation also covers PTRC’s upcoming local government hiring event on August 26, the organization’s podcast, and the importance of considering reentry populations as an untapped workforce pipeline. Jacob closes by sharing his contact information for employers seeking support, and Denise wraps the episode with Chamber reminders, appreciation for listeners, and standard audio disclaimers.

    • Pickleball & More: What’s Coming Up at the Chamber

      Denise Heidel sits down with producer Tim Beaman to walk through the Chamber’s late‑summer updates as July winds down and the busy season approaches. She announces the rebranding of Brewing Connections to Coffee Connections, now held on the first Friday of each month at 9 a.m. beginning August 7. The shift clears up confusion about the event’s purpose, avoids overlap with Tasty Tuesday, and gives members a more accessible start time for morning networking.

      They also preview the Chamber in Action volunteer event, happening the same afternoon on August 7, where members will support A Bed in a Book. Denise reflects on earlier CIA efforts, including the spring project at the Ronald McDonald House, and emphasizes how these biannual service days strengthen community ties. Additional August activities include the monthly Chamber meeting, ribbon cuttings, and business‑after‑hours gatherings as the calendar ramps back up.

      Looking ahead to September, Denise highlights the third annual pickleball tournament on September 19, now partnered with Dilldinkers — the Triad’s first indoor pickleball facility. The event features mixed, women’s, and men’s doubles, plus a beginner workshop, all serving as a fundraiser to keep Chamber programming strong and dues affordable. She closes with a look toward fall planning, noting that the new membership guide and partnership menu will debut in late September as the Chamber continues expanding opportunities for its business community.
