MOBLZ 101: Intro to MOBLZ

Hey Food Truck peeps! We typically talk about you in our marketing communications to office park property managers or tenants in the buildings we schedule food truck rotations for, but our newsletters don’t necessarily talk to you. We would like that to change starting with this newsletter! We plan on directing some content your way - specific info you’ll find interesting and relevant to your business. What better way to start a new segment up than to introduce ourselves?

Working In A Hybrid Workforce

The typical Monday-Friday work week has changed to a more flexible work hybrid week. This evolution in the work week has a direct effect on you, and more importantly your tenants. The days your office park was most populated may have shifted. MOBLZ is well adapted to help you navigate the new hybrid work week.

Top 11 Tips for a Successful Blood Drive

One of MOBLZ’ founders has been a blood coordinator for many blood drives across multiple companies and multiple organizations. Blood Drives have become part of the MOBLZ culture, a regular part of our service offerings. In coordinating over 35 blood drives, we’ve helped collect over 1000 units of blood. The Red Cross correlates giving one unit of blood to saving three lives, so our blood drives really make a difference! January is National Blood Donor Month, so with that in mind we've put together some tips to help you run a successful blood drive on your properties. It’s an easy thing to do, with a HUGE impact.

Resolutions

We have transitioned out of the end-of-year holiday season with turkey, eggnog, and Mariah Carey belting out “All I Want for Christmas is You!” to the beginning of a new year. With a new year often comes resolutions which tend to be focused around losing a few extra pounds accumulated over the past year. And with COVID, many of us have put on enough weight that our clothes aren’t fitting quite right. So, how can you as a property manager, help tenants with that?

Working Your Asphalt Off

In this week’s MOBLZ podcast, Eric Garrison and Becky Hanner discuss how to turn something seemingly mundane, such as an asphalt parking lot, into something that draws people in and makes the property you manage the happening place.

Streaming to productivity. How can music improve work performance?

As a property manager you would love to be able to keep your tenants in their happy places. Studies have shown when you hear a song you like that the brain releases dopamine, a chemical that has a positive effect on mood. A great tune can also reduce stress or anxiety and improve memory.
