Ogden – Page 5

Coldwell Banker Realty unveiled their prestigious “Rookie of the Year” award last week as part of their companywide annual awards gala for the Utah Metro. The gala was in a virtual format this year. The award is presented to an individual agent, in Utah, who has entered into the real estate business in the past 18 months, and produced the most in sales volume.

“This year we are delighted to honor Jenny Scothern, from the Ogden office, for this award. Jenny not only turned in the best performance in terms of sales, but was also recognized by the company and her clients for her outstanding service throughout the year. We are proud to have Jenny on our amazing sales force. Her attention to detail, and the caring way she handles her business, exemplifies the high standards of Coldwell Banker Realty and its colleagues,” said Chris Jensen, President of Coldwell Banker, Utah.

Scothern, most recently, served as the CEO of a local Ogden non-profit, The GOAL Foundation, a dynamic volunteer organization that produces the Ogden Marathon and supports World-Class Athletic events that choose Ogden as their destination. Prior to the GOAL Foundation, Scothern was the COO of a family owned business, Fran Brown College of Beauty, in Layton, Utah.

Scothern has served the Northern Utah community in many capacities, and most recently serves on the Weber State University Alumni Association Executive Committee, and is a “Spiker”, for the Ogden/Weber Chamber of Commerce.

“It is an honor to be recognized by Coldwell Banker Realty for this prestigious award. I would like to thank all of my friends, family, and mentors who have supported me in my real estate career. My business is built on providing extraordinary customer service and client care and I am committed to building a 100% referral-based business, so the support I have been given my ‘rookie year’ has meant the world to me,” said Scothern.

Scothern also qualified for the Coldwell Banker Realty, International President’s Circle and the Northern Wasatch Association of Realtors, Top 250 Producers.

As he turned 40, Ryan realized that it was time to pursue his dream of becoming an entrepreneur. He and his wife, Melissa, decided to start a magazine company to help create more connection in their lives and in the communities they serve.

Melissa had primarily been a stay-at-home mom for about 16 years, while Ryan was a salesperson and sales manager for various companies. One of those companies was a magazine publisher in Las Vegas, where Ryan sold advertising.

That magazine had mostly canned content that often felt impersonal to readers. When Ryan left and moved to Utah, he told Melissa that if he ever worked on a magazine again he would want to control the content and make it local and personal to the area. 12 years later, that opportunity presented itself when Ryan talked to the Mayor of North Ogden about creating a city magazine.

Connection Publishing was born in 2016 and has since expanded to four additional cities. Content in the magazines is by and about each community: city news, history, recipes, event calendar, business spotlights and more. These official city magazines are funded by local business advertisements. Businesses can place display ads intermixed with the content or have custom articles written about them for the magazine. Connection Publishing currently sends magazines to nearly 70,000 homes in Weber and Davis Counties.

Ryan and Melissa and their entire team work to create connection by bringing communities together with local content in beautiful magazines.

Imagine finishing a 12 hour shift and still being energized. That would be a clear signal that you are working your passion, not just a job. That is how Tina Calandra, owner of Soul Beautiful Salon, feels about doing hair.

Tina started doing cosmetics and makeup 25 years ago and quickly realized she wanted more. She enjoys enhancing the whole look and feels very passionately about creating the look and feel her clients want from the inside out. Tina has found over and over again that the media has a profound impact on her clients, giving them unrealistic expectations of what beauty is. So, Tina’s mission is to help people feel beautiful and happy in their own skin.

After moving to the Ogden area four years ago, Tina was searching for work at a Salon. She began to envision her own space: A spa-like, salon atmosphere where her clients could come and spend time in self-care activities and receive beauty treatments. Her vision took shape as she opened Soul Beautiful Salon in Pleasant View and her clients love the relaxing atmosphere she has created.

Business ownership is multifaceted and keeps Tina wearing many hats. She credits the relationships she’s made through the Chamber that make her feel that she is in business for herself, but not by herself. Tina loves connecting with the community and participating in local events.
