"If there's ice buildup on the car in the middle of the winter and you need to nail it with a (spray) gun, we're going to get it off." Birds leaving unwelcome presents on one's car are also attended prior to enter- ing the wash bay. Total package Zimmerman said you are basically using a giant super computer when you go through his conveyorized, tunnel car wash, which differs from the in-bay, auto- matic car washes common throughout the area. A computer determines the car's size and calculates the amount of soap and water and other products needed to clean the vehicle. The car is moved through the wash area on a conveyor at the two Jilly's locations, instead of equipment rotating around the car. Jilly's also utilizes the best vacuums available. Ninety percent of the vacuums in the industry operate from one location — Zimmerman's operate from four points around the vehicle. Blowers are also pro- vided to remove any excess water. "One of the most popular things we pro- vide is free towels for drying," Zimmer- man said. "We give towels out for our cus- tomers to use. We provide Armor All, win- dow cleaner and carpet cleaner to use for free." All of the technological advances and touches of care common to Jilly's go for nothing if not for Zimmerman's greatest trick — figuring out how to control Moth- er Nature. Zimmerman said he and his wife previ- ously were involved in the fitness center business, and applied that business model to car washes. For $19.95, a person can wash their car an unlimited number of times. A sticker on the vehicle is read, billing is automated and an account can be managed online. "What I think is so important is it takes the weather out of the equation when deciding to get a car wash," Zimmerman said. "A person can wash their car when it needs to be washed, not when they think the weather is going to be nice, and I think that is a big deal."

The caramel corn that is almost impossible to put down might translate well to being packed and sold in a larger retail environ- ment. Anderson said looking for shelf space in the hypercom- petitive world of grocery stores is not an endeavor to be entered lightly. One must be organized, motivated and come with a can't-miss proposition. "I learned a lot from a lot of people," Anderson said. "I met with everyone I know who got into a grocery store." Maybe one day soon, Anderson and Treat Street's culinary delights will grace store shelves throughout southeast Wisconsin. Per- haps, if asked in a year's time, Anderson and compa- ny will say they again tried everything, and that every- thing worked. "We're doing well, obvi- ously, but not as well as we want to be," Anderson said. "We've got to pick our niche and go from there." Submitted photo Jilly's, 15340 W. Bluemound Road in Elm Grove, adds special touches like providing towels for drying cars after they are washed. Conley News Service MEQUON — Shawn Sayner may have gotten the spark that led to her writing two children's books while she was a stu- dent at Homestead High School. The 1997 HHS grad and Brookfield resident said she has fond memories of two English teachers who helped fuel her interest and ambitions in both expository writing and cre- ative writing. However, Sayner's path to becoming a published author was not a straight shot. She earned a bachelor's degree in business from the University of Wiscon- sin-Milwaukee and then went on to get a master's degree in human resources from the Keller Graduate School. She worked in the corporate HR world for many years. Then she became a mom. She made the move to stop climbing the corporate ladder and become a stay-at-home mom for her son, Micah, who soon will be 4. Since then, she's pub- lished two books that are aimed at children. Both open a window for kids to the wider world, whether its experiencing diversity or helping kids deal with challenges. The first is "What I Can Do with My 'Do!" Promo- tional materials say the book "celebrates people of color in a vibrant picture book." Sayner's second book — "My Superhero Me" — is a tale of bravery. It includes illustrations of children with various skin tones. Sayner said she encour- ages children in the book to "take a minute, calm down and breathe and see that they have a superhero who can help (them) be brave and get through whatever the challenge is."
