Nothing hurts an office like a negative aura hanging over the employees. A positive work environment is a great factor in helping an office be productive both now, and in the future. Some of the best companies focus on keeping their employees happy and motivated. Especially in environments where sales drive the companies success, attitude is a major factor. As evidence from the internet's devoted obsession to dogs and cats, an office puppy can play a big role in motivating employees. Obviously there are a number of environments where this would not work, but in a smaller company, it is perfect!
As an example, here at A&S Play Zone, we have one of the most lovable and happy dogs anyone has ever seen. His name is Tobi and he loves everyone in the office, and everyone loves him! If people are ever feeling overwhelmed or stressed about work, they simply spend a minute with Tobi and immediately their day is better. Tobi roams around the office and occasionally will stop by and keep a person company at their desk. He brings a smile to people's faces, and when people are smiling, they are more productive and more successful in solving problems.
Overall, an office dog has been one of employee's favorite experiences at our company. I wouldn't say a company cat wouldn't work, but I'm not sure it would have the same effect. If you stop by A&S Play Zone to look at our party rental items, be sure to say hello to Tobi!

How Soon Do I Need To Reserve A Bounce House / Inflatable
I frequently get the question on the phone, "When do I need to reserve my item?" or "How late can I get my bounce house?" There is not perfect answer for that question. There are a lot of variables that could affect the answer I give. Some items we have multiples of, while others we only have one. Other than graduation time, when I would suggest you call as soon as you know what day your party is, you can usually get by with a week to a week and a half before. Again, I have to reiterate that this might not always be the case, but often times it can be. If you have your eye on a specific item, and have a few days you want to check on, don't hesitate to call us here at A&S Play Zone and run those days by us!

Homemade Lunch Party
Working at a party rental and inflatable rental company has plenty of perks. One of them, specifically at A&S, is the fantastic cooking by some of the staff! On one warm summer day each year, one of the more experienced cooks on the staff takes the time to prepare a feast for the rest of the company. Everyone is invited in, and a great time is had by all! The food consisted of chicken, burgers and hot dogs as the main course. Some of the sides involved macaroni, seasoned corn, beans of all sorts, and much more! On top of the fabulous food comes the great camaraderie of those working at A&S. The workers get along wonderfully, and everyone can be involved in the fun games and conversation. With a warehouse full of inflatable rental equipment, how can people not have fun! Bounce houses, obstacle courses, dunk tanks, and every other interactive inflatable anyone could want is available for the employees to enjoy. Of course, every day is a fun day when you work at a party rental company! If you are interested in working for this fantastic company, we are accepting applications on our website at <http://asplayzone.com/index.php?p=apply>.

Website Work
Thanks to everyone who answered my question yesterday, or will answer it in the upcoming Facebook poll! Me, being the master of questions, has another query for you all. What would you like us to improve about our website? Personally, I think we could add a search box, and we are considering doing that soon! I think the online system could synchronize well with our office computers so we could be more in touch with our customers. On that note, we could integrate our social media more as well, from YouTube, to Facebook, to this very blog. In the most simplest of terms, how can A&S Play Zone serve you better? If you haven’t visited our website in a while, it is www.asplayzone.com.

What Inflatables Do YOU Want Next?
I promised that today I would have a new question to pose for you all, and I wasn’t lying! As the summer rush begins to taper off a little and A & S Play Zone starts to look back at their inventory, we have a few thoughts. As always, after a busy year so far, our busiest year ever as a matter of fact (Thanks to all of you!), a few of our older inflatables that we rent out have become damaged to the point where we will no longer rent them out to parties in the Dayton Cincinnati, and Columbus areas. This is simply from many years of bouncing and jumping, and our bouncers take a beating after a few years! Also, we look towards the Autumn/Winter months. We see events like Halloween and Christmas coming up, and although we supply people with equipment for these events, there is more we could do. Our months outside the Spring and Summer times are not as busy as those, so we always have a bit of a quandary. We always want to expand and add more items to keep our customers happy and interested, but which direction should we go?
AS PlayZone has a large number of bounce houses (bouncers jumpys jumpers moonwalks moonbounces or bounce house, whatever you want to call them!) Combination bounce houses, but could we add more? There always seems to be a demand, so if this is your favorite item and where you want to see us expand inventory, let us know in the comments! Maybe your favorite attractions include the extreme or interactive inflatables, such as the demolition ball, boulder dash, or defender dome. Tell us which item is your favorite, and we’ll look for similar items. This category does include bungee runs, the mechanical bull, and inflatable jousts too! A big section that we expanded in this year was slides and water slides. We have 3 large inflatables slides that we rent out to parties in the Dayton, Columbus, and Cincinnati area, but should there be more? Is three dry slides enough? Maybe, because especially in this heat, the water slides could not stay in the warehouse! Wipeout and the Dolphin water slide both entered our inventory this year, to team up with the Roaring River and Velocity Extreme. Perhaps another mid-range slide or even a kid’s slide? Those are my thoughts, but remember, all these questions I’m asking I want your thoughts on!
For now, these are all the items I’m going to suggest, and we will see what people think. As we move forward in the process of transitioning into the later months of the year, we will get more specific with what items we are looking at, and we want you to help along the way! Thank you all for being such great readers!

What’s Next?
Hello everyone! As the summertime nears its halfway point, people have had plenty opportunities to see inflatables in action all around, and hopefully you have seen some of ours! As we continue to serve people’s inflatable needs and party needs, we wonder what some of costumers think of the job we’ve been doing. There are many many places to review A&S Play Zone online. Of course, we do love it when people call us directly to thank us for the job we do, but posting online can help lead others to a similar experience! Now to those places online. The big ones include Google, Yahoo, Yellow Pages, and Angie’s List. I’m sure there are plenty more, but these are the few that immediately come to mind. Please let us know what you thought of our service. If you loved it, fantastic! We appreciate good reviews. If not, we check these frequently, so we will soon respond to any concerns and possibly contact you to resolve any issues! Thanks again everyone, and I’ll be coming to you with a new question tomorrow!

Milestone for A&S on YouTube
With the continued improvement in A & S Play Zone’s service, we are striving to expand our social reach as well! Among the many avenues we take, from Google Plus, to Facebook, Twitter, and Google places, one website has proven exceptionally valuable to us. YouTube. In my opinion, the best site on the internet. Why? It allows for the most widespread and free meshing of ideas, values, and whatever else people want to share. It also works extremely well for businesses, communicating the value of their products to their costumers! That is how I see YouTube working for A & S Play Zone. Many of the videos we already have are simply descriptions of our items, along with some that show our rides working to the joy of our customers. We will continue to post informative videos such as these, so that we can better demonstrate the value of our inflatables, and what it is like to experience them as close to what it is like in real life. Along with these videos, we will begin posting videos from our events and cataloging the success of each event and how happy people are with it! The milestone we have reached today, is that we have eclipsed the 5,000 view mark on YouTube! This is a small milestone in regard to most channels, but after just two months of dedicated work, the range of people viewing our videos has increased exponentially! My goal is to always reach out to people who we support, but also expand so that people who aren’t familiar with our company can see what great products we offer, and what great service! Overall, I want to thank you all for your support with our YouTube channel, you are responsible for its success, and remember to invite friends, family, and whoever to view our channel, view our videos, and support A & S Play Zone! Thank you all so much!
