Robert Dillon and Tom Blank (below, left to right), owners of Molly Maid of Southeast Lake and Northwest Cook Counties, were presented in March with the franchise’s “Trailblazer Award” in recognition of their outstanding leadership in mentoring new businesses to grow in markets across the country, by focusing on consistent delivery of superior quality and customer service. The award was presented at the Molly Maid national convention in Orlando, Florida, at the Walt Disney World Contemporary Resort. Molly Maid President Kristi Mailloux added that “Molly Maid owners had an outstanding year in 2006!” The company, which is based in Ann Arbor, MI, is a member of “Service Brands International,” a group of service companies that provide a variety of time-saving services ideally suited for today’s active consumer. The residential cleaning franchise, ranked number 10 / Summer 2007 one in the U.S., was founded in 1979. Currently more than 540 franchises are operating in the U.S., Canada, Japan, England, Portugal and Bermuda. They have been the recipient of numerous awards for entrepreneurism, software innovation and humanitarian causes. The “Ms. Molly Foundation,” for example, provides assistance to domestic violence safe houses and shelters across the nation, including financial and personal care item donations. You can contact them at 1-800-Molly Maid, or at www.mollymaid.com. Our entire Highland Park Chamber of Commerce Communications Committee would like to thank Mayor Belsky, Councilwoman Terri Olian and the entire City Council for the warm welcome and wonderful opportunity to showcase six00threefive magazine at their regular meeting February 12, 2007. With lots of items packed into a full agenda, the Mayor and Council still found time to hear Deborah Barry of Wordspecs (executive editor of this publication) talk about our amazing growth. Thanks, too, to Peter Eisendrath of Signs Now for the much-larger-than-life blowup of our Spring cover. Big is what we’re talking about: What was an eight-page bulletin just three years ago is today a full-color, full-length magazine packed with local stories by local writers.
