Which Do You Choose Cover All or Separate Policies?

Posted by admin on Sep 30, 2009 in Main Content

A piece questioning a policy which gives many different types of cover.

Nearly 80% of the population don’t have life policy, income cover or significant illness cover. Partly due to cost but several understand it is just too hard to grasp. A new all encompassing package by the insurance firm Fortis Life could be the solution.

Honest Life Cover joins 5 distinct types of insurance in an individual policy: life protection; income cover; carers cover; improvement cover and critical illness. Severe illness covers 3 distinct illnesses which make up for 85% of all serious conditions claims –heart attack, cancer and stroke. An additional choice is cover for unemployment.
Funding monthly, Real Life Protection covers you financially for almost any event stopping you from working. Legal & General states the insurance plan offers a ‘fair and common sense’ level of security.

This Mortgage Protection has 2 funds. The first is designated the ‘life fund’: a lump sum is provided on diagnosis of a terminal affliction or in the event of death. The ‘active fund’ includes all other areas. Regardless of the amount of demands from the alive fund the life fund remains the same.
With the alive fund as long as you have money staying within, you can sign up for (up to a total of 6 years) as frequent income protection claims as you need. With each of the three serious ailments covered (heart attack, stroke and cancer you can make a single claim for each. If you need to cease full time employment and become a carer for a child or partner you can make an individual claim.

For protection for your income the cover plan provides 0.5% of the amount assured every five weeks. Convalescence cover allows a gross sum of 2.5% with an initial sum of eleven per cent for a serious illness claim or if you become an acknowledged carer.

An individual with a £100,000 policy who has a progressive illness diagnosed would gain through their severe ailment cover £12,000, transmitting eighty eight thousand pounds in their fund. If  they then developed a severe long term medical issue they could claim financial insurance and benefit from £1,100 every month for six years and eight months. The life fund (£99,000) would continue the same.

A thirty nine year old female non smoker, in acceptable health, would provide a monthly premium of £36.90 for £110,000 Critical Illness Insurance . This premium being secured for the lifespan of the policy. A £110,000 critical complaint and fatality insurance plan would cost £56.75 every month, compared to Direct Line.

However, in the situation of a critical ailment compensation demand, Sainsbury’s will allow the total sum assured, one hundred thousand pounds. Real Life Cover will fund only 11%.

Robert Nelson, partner at independent personal finance company Moffat Financial Planning, suggests: ‘This is a novel venture but it is such a fragmented approach. Not everyone demands all this assorted cover, and protection for their income should protect you up until you decide to retire, not simply for a minimum nine year length of time. This is why the Real Life Cover monthly payments are so small.’

‘There is no point funding a tiny bit for different sectors of policy, if you do not want of them. It should be a suggestion to stick to life protection and protection for income with full cover as an alternative. I would rigidly urge someone seek an alternative view to see whether this venture really is suitable for their needs.’

How Much Money Can You Make Selling Ebooks?

Posted by admin on Sep 30, 2009 in Main Content

Anyone who is interested in selling ebooks would like to know how much money they can make out of it. Well, like most business ventures, the answer to this will largely depend on many different factors. For example, the amount of effort you put into the promotion of your ebooks will have a direct consequence on sales. Also, market interest in your ebook subject is another important factor. People who are good at identifying good ebook topics and promoting their ebooks usually stand to make a lot of money.

How Much Money Can You Make Exactly?

Some Ebook entrepreneurs lose money in the course of a year while some make hundreds of thousands of dollars. More realistically, however, is somewhere in between these two points. Many ebook authors make between $5,000 and $25,000 a year as a rough guide.

How to Maximize Ebook Sales

The best way to ensure high sales is to constantly promote your ebook. This may mean long working hours. Some of the best ways to promote your ebook include buying advertising from large advertising portals such as Google and Yahoo, using link exchanges, press releases, writing articles for websites and ezines, building an content rich website and writing great ebook sales pages.

Accomplishing all of this is no mean feat. You can expect to be in product development for several months and then the promotional stage may take another 4-12 months. It’s not necessarily an easy job but as stated above the payoff could be large. Another idea is to write several ebooks and then to sell this as an ebook package. You could also offer your package with resale rights. There are thousands of people looking to resell ebooks and you could profit from this demand.

Worst Case Scenario

Should you decide that that ebook entrepreneurship is not your forte, you will still have written an ebook and be selling it online. That makes you an author and you should be proud of the achievement. Furthermore, your ebook may give you some extra cash on a monthly basis. If nothing else, it will be a good learning experience. You have nothing to lose, so why not give it a try?

Suzanne Somers and Her Get Skinny on Fabulous Food Diet

Posted by admin on Sep 30, 2009 in Main Content

Suzanna Sommers Gets Down to the Facts.

Yes this diet allows you to eat what you like and also lose the weight as well. All through medical school Suzanna was taught that fatty foods caused you to gain weight and become fat. She learned later that it is not true. In fact if we deprive ourselves of foods that have fat in them and feast on high carbs instead, we will in fact gain weight in the long run. Fat helps our bodies to regenerate healthy cells. Without these it can lead to disease and early death even.

When she left the medical field she did her own studies and quickly realized that fats are the opposite of what she was taught as well as carbohydrates. While it was stressed to her many times over that carbohydrates are good, she did her own research that she conducted with 1000’s of people. She teaches her patients to balance their diet. Like many diets there is a discovery that you make; it is in the insulin that your body releases into the bloodstream. The secret is rebuilding up the cells and keeping them healthy and strong.

A Solution?

Well after proving that the ADA was wrong, shortly thereafter there was a solution to why patient’s blood sugar soared. The patients were consuming hidden sugars that came in the form of carbohydrates. In doing this whether we see it or not, if you convince a diabetic to eat a high carb diet, you are telling them to eat sugar. That is definitely not a good idea. After this discovery a new one emerged. Instead of hidden sugars the patients would eat foods that were high in fat.

What in the World Makes Eating Fat Good For Me?

Well there are many reasons why. First of all it is vital for proper brain function. That is definitely good to know. Then it is required for the nerves to keep your electrical pulses moving. There are membranes that are inside cells. It is essential for us to consume fats because of that as well. Not to mention it is very important for the structure of the cell membranes as well and it keeps them permeable.

Did you know that it also prevents mood swings as well? Then of course we all need a good and healthy immune system. It helps to fight against viruses and infections. Consuming fat is also important for hormones.

Signs of Poor Health Due to Lack of Fat Intake.

Sounds odd right? Well let’s have a look at some of the signs of poor health due to lack of fat consumption. Are your fingernail brittle or do they break easily? This is one sign that you are not consuming enough fat. Do you find yourself constipated or craving carbs? How about your hair? Talk about a bad hair day and yes, it can be caused by no fat consumption. Are you trying to have a baby and can’t seem to get pregnant? Eat more FAT!! If you find that are having a hard time sleeping, that too can be caused by lack of fat consumption.

There are mood disorders as well with lack of fat consumption. Your skin can become itchy as well. Imagine that! There are suggested foods that you can eat to help balance your diet. You should make sure that your body is consuming foods such as avocados, red meats, shellfish, butter, fish, olives and nuts, just to name a few.

As with any diet there are things that you need to take into consideration before you begin. Always talk with your doctor about the best diet for you. You and your doctor know more about your body then anyone else and he will be able to guide you in the right direction. Consider your options and what is involved in the diet as well. As with any diet, you won’t know that it works for you unless you try it to see.

Many people would be skeptical about consuming a lot of fats but in her books, Susan explains what should be done in her diet as well as the essential reasons why we need to make fats a part of our diet. Our bodies rely on these fats. We need them for health as well as keeping our body balanced. Keep in mind the risks for not consuming the proper fats that your body needs. This will most definitely help you in making your decision on whether this is the diet for you.

Profiting Online From a Few Simple Strategies

Posted by admin on Sep 30, 2009 in Main Content

One of the simplest and most overlooked aspects of online marketing is that it’s not complicated. Or more to the point,, there are many “gurus” who try to make it complicated. Aside from whatever motivation they might have to do that online profits occur from one simple equation –

Traffic + Conversion = Sales

– performed over & over again

There are MANY ways to get traffic (visitors) to your site and get them to take some action or “convert,” which will either result in more leads or (less frequently) result directly in more sales to your business.

So here’s the other simple rule — you only need to master 1 or 2 traffic methods and 1 or 2 conversion methods, and you will make money. When you drive you only need to know two pedals, and you don’t need to know EVERYTHING about internet marketing in order to add revenue to your business.

With that in mind, there are a few basic traffic techniques I’ve implemented in some of my sites and client sites that have universally and consistently WORKED. Here are a few of those methods — but remember, you only need to pick one or two:

Traffic Generation

1) Twitter is a highly effective means of targeting your niche and developing the conversation with your customers and prospects. In fact, it is second to none. However, most businesses don’t know how to use Twitter effectively. They spam with “sales tweets” — “Look at the cool new thing I’m selling.” The 80/20 rule is highly effective — 80% of your tweets should be about something interesting, funny or otherwise engaging… a question of the day like “What’s for lunch?”… anything to get people talking, laughing, thinking… Also, keep it consistent and be generous with re-tweets. A few tweets a day go a long way toward establishing a rabid list of followers. The wrong thing to do is to Tweet like a madman for a day or two and then disappear for a month. Or worse, don’t reply when someone direct messages you or @messages you. That’s like ignoring someone at a dinner party when they ask you to pass the gravy. You WON’T get any dessert.

2) Video marketing is a very fast way to rank your site and get lots of inbound traffic. Keep your videos consistent — don’t show up one day in a baseball cap and dark lighting, talking about the rain, and another day bouncing in a jungle gym screaming about business leads. Consistent message, consistent tone, consistent look & feel. Also, be sure to put a call to action in your video’s description, as well as the full URL of your website’s landing page, and use appropriate keywords.

3) Article marketing is an evergreen method for outstanding traffic generation, with one HUGE caveat — mix it up! Putting the same article on 400 article directories will get you nowhere fast. You will get a bump in traffic from all the inbound links until Google figures out they’re all the same article and basically count it as one link. There are content spinners out there that alter the content of your articles automatically, but you have to be very careful here as well. Most content spinners change a word or two to replace it with a synonym, or they mash up the article randomly so the output is basically junk that cannot be read. It has to pass human review. So if you’re looking for a quality content spinner, ideally you want to be able to change the entire sentence many times throughout the article, and then have it spin those into hundreds of different articles. That’s the professional way to do it. At the bottom of your article, have a call to action in the information field; a blurb about you (the author) and a link to a free guide the reader can pick up at your website.

Visitors Taking Action

1) Keep it simple. The landing page has to do ONE thing — get people to ACT. For this reason, it’s been called a SINGLE ACTION PAGE. Pear it down to the bare essence of what you need the visitor to do. Consider placing a video on the page with a very simple message, “Hey thanks for stopping by for my free whizbang. Just type in your first name and e-mail address and I will rush it right over to you. In just a moment after you send your information, you’ll get an e-mail with a confirmation link. Click that link and I will instantly send your free whizbang.”

2) Direct, direct, direct. Notice the video script in #1 above — see how we instructed the user on exactly what they need to do? And then we told them what to expect next, and what they would then need to do. And we closed with a reminder of the benefit — the free whizbang.

If you have trademarked the term “whizbang,” then I apologize in advance. ;)

3) Test, test, test. ALWAYS have two versions of your landing page operating at one time. You can optimize your landing page using freely available Google tools in the Web Optimizer toolbox. You really can’t go on “gut” here — the data will be you every single time. Even on PPC ads, we have literally seen the addition of a question mark in the ad increase conversion by 16.8% So test, test, test.

Conclusion

These methods work on any business in any industry. Here is some social proof –

Local landscape designer increased her traffic by 7,342% (yes seven thousand percent)

 

     

  • Local artist went from three visitors a day to an average of 41 visitors a day
  •  

  • International digital publisher had zero e-commerce and started converting 16% of all traffic to revenue within 72 hours of implementing one traffic strategy and one conversion strategy
  •  

  • Changing a landing page to a simple design on an e-book site turned conversion from an anemic two sales per week to eight sales a day — on the same traffic.
  •  

I hope this helps your business. The average business fails to do what it takes to drive traffic or achieve conversions to their website. While they exercise 20-30 traffic methods on average, they don’t do a single one effectively.  There are many sources online to learn about effective marketing strategies, including free resources and some almost-free, like the definitive guidebook  750 Traffic Generation Methods.

Do-it-for-you solutions are also available; experience guides the appropriate strategy for the website and market. The biggest challenge business owners face is knowing which strategy to implement. Experimentation can be very costly in terms of time and lost sales… The key is to find a reputable marketing firm that offers a full range of customized services as well as downloadable products and courses to assist every website owner at every budget level.
