Leading Provider of Mobility Products Opens New McAllen Retail Showroom

Leading Provider of Mobility Products Opens New McAllen Retail Showroom

The SCOOTER Store’s new location will provide power wheelchairs, scooters to area residents.

McAllen, TX (PRWEB) September 27, 2006

The SCOOTER Store, the nation’s largest supplier of power wheelchairs and scooters (http://www. thescooterstore. com/?code=INT0706KOR&p=8667268919), has opened an expanded McAllen retail store that will continue its tradition of improving the quality of life for people living with mobility impairments.

The new store, which is located at 2000 South McColl Road, Suite I, will be a resource for residents of the McAllen area, and the entire Valley region. The store’s grand opening was September 7, and members of the McAllen Chamber of Commerce joined the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

“We provide people with the ability to retain their independence and perform daily living activities such as eating, grooming and going to the bathroom in their own homes,” said Esmeralda Gracia, the store manager. “We provide families, caregivers, and physicians with information on how to operate our products and to find out first-hand what options are available to help their loved ones and patients maintain their freedom.”

In addition to power wheelchairs and medical scooters, the store will stock a broad range of healthcare products including lift chairs, bath and safety items, rollators, and other therapeutic devices. The SCOOTER Store assists customers with insurance paperwork and provides in-home service on its power wheelchairs and scooters.

The new McColl Road location replaces a store that had been located in Brownsville. “We look forward to continuing to address the mobility needs of people living in the Valley,” Ms. Gracia said, noting that the store is part of the company’s nationwide network.

“We are proud to provide mobility equipment and service from our retail location in McAllen, and across the country,” said Doug Harrison, founder and CEO of The SCOOTER Store. “Our retail stores allow customers to test our various models, talk to our highly-trained staff and experience how our healthcare solutions can improve their quality of life. We’re here to help people regain their freedom, independence and personal dignity by giving them more mobility.”

Mr. Harrison noted that by setting and maintaining the highest standards in the industry for more than 15 years, The SCOOTER Store has earned a reputation for honesty and integrity. In February, 2004, the company was accredited by the Accreditation Commission for Healthcare, Inc.

“We work closely with our customers, their physicians, Medicare and other insurance providers to provide the best service and most stringent level of accountability possible,” Mr. Harrison said. “We look forward to continuing that high level of service in the Valley. We are proud members of this community.”

About The SCOOTER Store

Since 1991, The SCOOTER Store has helped provide freedom and independence to more than 250,000 people with limited mobility (http://www. thescooterstore. com/?code=INT0706KOR&p=8667268919). The company has worked with more than 100,000 physicians and provided expertise and quality service to their patients.

Outsourcing Firm Helps Employers Trim Productivity Losses of $759 Billion

Outsourcing Firm Helps Employers Trim Productivity Losses of $759 Billion

Write Idea Marketing provides businesses the opportunity to outsource creative services for less.

Silver Spring, MD (PRWEB) October 5, 2005

According to a joint survey by Salary. com and America Online, the average American worker wastes in excess of two hours each working day, costing employers $759 billion a year in productivity. The results, according to outsourcing expert Beth Dieffenbach, are disastrous, especially for small and mid-sized businesses that eliminate creative service functions because they cannot afford to keep them.

Dieffenbach is the managing partner of Write Idea Marketing, a well-respected, full-service copywriting firm, serving the needs of local businesspeople and businesses around the world. She believes that, "Outsourcing creative functions gives any business the opportunity to deliver a million-dollar marketing message without having to pay nearly as much!"

Outsourcing customer service relations and technology is increasingly commonplace; however, Dieffenbach notes that a surprising number of businesses fail to make the connection when it comes to maintaining a healthy bottom line while keeping top-of-the-line creative talent "on call" rather than "on staff."

The Cost of Creativity

Dieffenbach points to recent Gallup poll results showing that the average employee spends 75 minutes a day making personal use of company technology, such as phones, computers, fax machines and copiers. "A third of those employees say they are waste time because they don't have enough work to do," she reports.

In addition to money spent on "goofing off" time, Dieffenbach points out that companies must dig into their pockets to pay employer taxes and workman's comp -- an additional 12% on top of salary. Add benefits on top of that and business owners may find it difficult to justify the expense of keeping creative writers on staff and may choose to do their own writing and hope for the best.

The goal is cutting costs but the result is a loss of profits. "If a sales message doesn't effectively communicate the value and benefit of a product or service, if won't matter if you're giving away ice for free during a heat wave. If no one reads your copy, no one will know what you have to offer."

Word Power

Dieffenbach says that regardless of the industry sector a company is in, copywriting is king. "Whether your product is holistic medicine or ball bearings, the quality of your marketing message and the talent of the people writing it will make or break your success."

Dieffenbach notes that Write Idea Marketing proactively identifies and recruits only the most qualified, skilled, and creative service providers available. They select those with a broad range of skills and a proven mastery of the arts and sciences of business writing. "This allows our clients to dip into an enormous 'talent pool' that is constantly being refreshed -- at no expense to them -- and where their dollars are leveraged and they can get the best for less," says Dieffenbach.

Searching for America's Biggest Procrastinator

Searching for America's Biggest Procrastinator

A nationwide contest to find the person who procrastinates the most. Procrastination is a debilitating problem for millions of people and this contest will serve to bring attention to the issue, and help people to overcome their negative habits. The contest runs through March 15,2004 and the top prize winner will receive a 12-month coaching package to take control of their life.

(PRWEB) January 19, 2004

Weisman Success Resources, a Poughkeepsie, NY based success coaching company, today announced a national contest to find “America’s Biggest Procrastinator” to bring attention to this debilitating habit that has become an epidemic in this country.

The contest, which will run from January 15 through March 15 2004 is open to anyone interested in completing the entry form at www. AmericasBiggestProcrastinator. com.

Procrastination is a killer of hopes and dreams, self-confidence, self-esteem and self-worth and costs companies millions of dollars in lost productivity every year. In addition, since most medical experts agree that 80% of all health issues are stress related, the stress created by continual procrastination is also causing considerable damage to the health of those afflicted with this debilitating habit.

“Just like other negative habits, procrastination is a learned behavior that develops over time and gets worse if not addressed early,” said Skip Weisman, principal of Weisman Success Resources, Inc. and the creator of the End Procrastination NOW! System. “I continue to be amazed at the lengths people will go to avoid getting things done by creating all sort of excuses and reasons instead of taking responsibility for their behavior.”

“I’m looking forward to this contest allowing me to learn even more about the affliction through the real life experiences of my contest entrants, so I can help even more people overcome this habit.”

All entries to the www. AmericasBiggestProcrastinator. com will receive a free downloadable package that includes the End Procrastination NOW! E-book, and a copy of the original self-help manual, written by James Allen, “As A Man Thinketh.”

The winner of the contest to find AmericaÂ’s Biggest Procrastinator will be announced in April 2004, and will receive a prize package valued at over $5000 including a 9-month End Procrastination NOW! Coaching package from Weisman Success Resources, Inc., a 3-month contract with a Monica Ricci of Catalyst Organizing

( www. CatalystOrganizing. com ), and other gifts to keep the winner on track and motivated.

For more information, and to schedule an interview, call Skip Weisman at 845-463-3838 or send an e-mail to skip@AmericasBiggestProcrastinator. com.

Are there viable alternatives to nursing homes and assisted living facilities, even for seniors with medical issues? Family caregivers faced with questions like these now have a free resource, from the Home Instead Senior Care® network, to help guide them through the sometimes complicated maze of home care decisions.

Omaha, NE (Vocus) June 16, 2010

The Acai Berry, Called the "Amazon's Viagra" Just Featured on Oprah

The Acai Berry, Called the "Amazon's Viagra" Just Featured on Oprah

Deep in the Jungles of the Amazon lies more mystery and miracles than can possibly be discovered in one lifetime. But for the growing Baby Boomer’s, a new Amazon discovery could be the next “big thing”.

(PRWEB) December 20, 2004

What ancient tribes and people of the Amazon have known for centuries, the world is just discovering. That an ancient berry, called the Acai Berry, may cause a sexual sensation. This mysterious berry, has been making headline news throughout the USA in the last year. Having been featured in the Wall Street Journal, on NBC’s “Today Show”, and just last month on the “Oprah Show”, Dr. Nicholas Perricone, named the Acai Berry as one of the most nutritious and powerful anti-aging foods in the world.

Monarch Health Sciences, a leading health company from Salt Lake City, is launching MonaVie - The Acai Berry Juice on January 8, 2005. This new elixir has been created and formulated with the expert talent of Dr. Ralph Carson. Dr Carson, Chief Science Officer of Monarch Health Sciences, heads an all star team of the nationÂ’s leading doctors, a prestigious medical team that is passionate about discovering the planetÂ’s secret natural medicines.

Besides being known as the “Amazon’s Viagra”, the Acai Berry is also known to have the following effects: Anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-oxidant, anti-mutagenic, and cardiovascular system.

So, how do you get your hands on a bottle of MonaVie? Great question, MonaVie is being launched with a MLM distribution model. A model of business that allows the average person to become the story-teller of a product, and generate their own profits. Why has such an acclaimed company, gone to this model of business? Just ask Calvenn Starre, MonaVie’s number one distributor, “MonaVie is best served as a person to person product, not just another sit-on-a-self natural Viagra youth elixir. This way, people can share their personal stories and create financial security during a very insecure time. Why should all the money go to media marketing, when the best advertising is always word of mouth?"

MonaVie is opening its doors to entrepreneurs seeking a home based business opportunity in USA, Canada, Australia, Singapore, Thailand, and Japan in 2005. Surprising to most of us, this MLM opportunity is only $39.95, and each bottle of MonaVie is only $30. Bulk discounts are available in quantities of 24 bottles or more. $30 a month to enjoy a “juicier” life, sign me up!

Medical Specialist Announces Guaranteed Healthcare through New Site

Medical Specialist Announces Guaranteed Healthcare through New Site

Guaranteed healthcare is now available at Medical Specialist Thomas Incledon's new Web site, www. HumanHealthSpecialists. com.

Tempe, AZ (PRWEB) November 16, 2006

Thomas Incledon, a medical specialist for the past 17 years, announces his revolutionary guaranteed healthcare service. Incledon, Chief Executive Officer of Human Health Specialists (www. HumanHealthSpecialists. com]), plans to use his new Web site to help people feel better through research-based programs that are guaranteed to improve health and performance.

People put their trust and their lives in the hands of medical specialists and professionals. They deem them to be skilled, confident individuals who will stop at nothing to alleviate ailments. Yet, if health professionals are certain about the advice or treatment they give, why don't they guarantee their services? The average American spends over $10,000 a year on healthcare, expending money (willing or not) on treatments that are not certain to restore health. Why is that?

There are guarantees on almost everything available for purchase. For instance, Craftsman guarantees their hand tools for life and car companies provide warranties for 100,000 miles, but if a person is sick, it becomes the luck of the draw whether they will get well or not. The point is, when it comes to the most precious asset -- health -- there are no guarantees... until now.

"I believe that healthcare professionals should stand behind their services," Incledon says. "I'm here to lead the way and revolutionize healthcare by offering a 100% guarantee on the health services our organization provides, because I'm confident that we can make a difference in people's lives."

Everyone's body has certain requirements to operate at its own optimal health. As a medical specialist, Incledon has dealt with countless clients and found common problems. For example, their bodies are missing an important link required for optimal health or they may have been exposed to a microorganism, which is inhibiting their health -- many times Incledon finds both. When the "link" is added or organism eliminated -- whatever the case may be -- the body begins to do its job and clients start to feel better. After 17 years of research and study of the human body, Incledon knows that when biochemical markers are synchronized perfectly for an individual's chemistry, they perform at an optimal level and they will feel better than they ever thought possible.

"People get trapped into allocating time and hard earned money in a never ending cycle of medications and doctor's visits. It is my goal and purpose to help them stop that," says Incledon.

Medical specialists are capable of doing these tests, but many are unaware of them. It takes the precise type of tests to determine exactly what someone's body needs or is missing. Testing can be done in a very short period of time and with very little effort on the individual's part since arrangements can be made for a qualified healthcare professional to perform the tests in a home or office.

Will testing cure everyone? "Not always, but I am so confident that testing makes such an impact in people's lives that I am willing to guarantee my result," says Incledon.

Is this guaranteed healthcare going to change the industry? "Let's hope so. I hope that it makes every healthcare provider feel more responsible for the results achieved by their diagnosis and the medications that they prescribe," says Incledon.

Thomas Incledon, PhD(c), RD, LD/N, NSCA-CPT, CSCS, RPT, has been involved in research on how to enhance health and human performance for over 17 years and is considered one of the worldwide leading experts on effective health and performance strategies. He is the Chief Executive Officer of Human Health Specialists of Tempe, Ariz. For more information about guaranteed healthcare services from a qualified medical specialist, please visit www.

Shea Homes and LRA Worldwide Partner to Create a Superior Community Experience

Shea Homes, Inc., the nationÂ’s largest privately-owned home builder and recipient of the National Association of Homebuilders AmericaÂ’s Best Builder 2005 award, has partnered with LRA Worldwide, Inc., a Philadelphia-based consulting company specializing in Customer Experience Management (CEM). The goal of the engagement is to create and communicate a service culture to Shea employees that will provide a lifetime of exceptional and memorable experiences for those who purchase residences in any of SheaÂ’s Trilogy master planned communities.

SCOTTSDALE, Arizona/HORSHAM, Pennsylvania (PRWEB) September 26, 2005

Shea Homes, Inc., the nationÂ’s largest privately-owned home builder and recipient of the National Association of Homebuilders AmericaÂ’s Best Builder 2005 award, has partnered with LRA Worldwide, Inc., a Philadelphia-based consulting company specializing in Customer Experience Management (CEM). The goal of the engagement is to create and communicate a service culture to Shea employees that will provide a lifetime of exceptional and memorable experiences for those who purchase residences in any of SheaÂ’s Trilogy master planned communities.

With seven active locations (and two more under construction) in California, Washington and Arizona, the Trilogy communities offer amenities such as golf, spa, health club, dining and concierge service that involve a great deal of interaction between residents and Trilogy employees. By creating a robust service culture and layering innovative service standards around these community touch points, Shea/Trilogy is working with LRA to ensure that the “customer experience” in its communities matches that of the finest hospitality service organizations in the world.

“We shifted our thinking around the Trilogy brand,” explained Rick Andreen, president of Shea Homes. “When it comes to our master planned communities, we consider ourselves as much a hospitality company as a home builder, and LRA is helping us apply that mindset operationally. We call it ‘Operationalizing the Culture.’”

Trilogy’s national director of resort and golf services, Tim Steckbeck, added, “People seek out Trilogy for both the quality and design elements of our communities as well as the ‘lifestyle’ experience we provide. Our work with LRA will support our efforts to provide our guests and members with consistent, distinctive and memorable Trilogy experiences.”

As a leader in the field of CEM, LRA has assisted many of the worlds leading brands – from hospitality to financial services – in crafting customized customer experience strategies and the standards and practices to support them. Though this is LRA’s first engagement with a home builder, it was a natural extension for an industry that is slowly changing from a strict focus on the product to the service surrounding that product.

“Shea Homes is clearly on the leading edge of this shift within the industry,” explained Rob Rush, chief executive officer of LRA Worldwide. “We are starting to have more and more conversations every day with companies in all facets of the real estate industry – builders, owners, managers, REITS, brokers – who are realizing that highly-satisfied and engaged residents, home owners and tenants will drive retention rates, profitability and the ‘buzz’ that creates legendary brands.”

About Shea Homes:

Shea Homes currently has seven Trilogy communities in Arizona, California and Washington. These high-end resort communities offers a new choice in living to those looking for an exciting lifestyle that revolves around wellness, adventure, continued learning, personal growth and close personal connections. Visit www. trilogylife. com for more information.

Over the past century, members of the Shea family and their companies have accomplished many extraordinary milestones including completing work on the foundation of the landmark Golden Gate Bridge, working on San Francisco Bay AreaÂ’s Rapid Transit System (BART) and serving as a managing partner for the construction of the Hoover Dam. Yet, Shea HomesÂ’ most satisfying achievements continue to revolve around listening to our customerÂ’s needs and satisfying those needs by proving an extensive selection of new home floor plans and quality workman ship in the finest neighborhoods and communities available today.

Pet Supplies Retailer Gives Boost to Pet Owners During Difficult Times

Pet Supplies Retailer Gives Boost to Pet Owners During Difficult Times.

The recent global credit crunch has left our pets in great need. Many pet owners are in despair, unable to properly care for their companions. Nutrecare, one of the leading on line pet supplies reatilers has increased its product range to offer consumers opportunities to save money and save pets aswell.

London, UK (PRWEB) January 4, 2009

The recent global credit crunch has left our pets in great need. Many pet owners are in despair, unable to properly care for their companions. All of us have heard and seen the devastation the current economic climate is having on people around the globe, but has anyone taken the time to see if our pets have been affected also? Since the beginning of the global economic recession there has been an increase in pets being taken to rescue homes for special attention, fuelling speculation in animal protection facilities that pet health and well being is at its lowest point for many years. The need for more affordable pet supplies (http://www. nutrecare. co. uk/) has never been greater than it is today.

As the finances tighten in the average home, many pet owners are finding it difficult to pay their mortgage, never mind medical bills for their pets. This had lead to a greater sick and fatality rate among our pets. Pet health (http://www. nutrecare. co. uk/prod1.asp? ID=171) is on a rapid decline while pet supplies have been rising in cost. More and more pets are being abandoned or dropped off at animal hospitals because the expense is too unbearable for the owner. This increasing issue can be seen mainly throughout the U. K., Europe and North America. Something needs to be done to alleviate the financial pressure placed on pet owners.

The U. K. is one of leading animal welfare nations in Europe and two of the leading Dog and Cat re-homing centres have both indicated dramatic increase in admissions and a decrease in footfall. In a recent interview a spokeswomen for Battersea home in London said "We have seen a big increase in the number of strays being brought to us, we can't be certain that this is directly attributable to the credit crunch, but there is an assumption that this is the reason. There has also been a 20 per cent decrease in the number of people providing new homes for Cats and Dogs, compared with this time last year." The Dog Trust, the largest dog welfare charity in the U. K., said: "Our London HQ has been inundated with calls from people wanting us to rehome their dog - one in five is now a rehoming request compared with just one in 10 a few months ago. The main reasons people are quoting is the credit crunch and that things are getting tight. It is a particular problem for people who have poorly dogs who require regular vet treatment and medicine."

Nutrecare has been committed to pet health since its inception. It has been one of the leading providers of pet supplies uncommon to the public. Their original niche was to supply animal healthcare products, typically only available through a vet, and make them accessible to the general public. Since the global credit crunch has affected thousands of pets worldwide, Nutrecare has expanded their pet supplies and pet health products to meet the growing needs for more conventional and affordable products. Nutrecare is dedicated to the well being of pets around the world and will continue to find ways to increase the awareness of the current needs of pets.

Nutrecare has worked with manufacturers to make their pet products as affordable and competitive as possible. Nutrecare exists to provide prescription and non-prescription products at the very best prices ensuring big savings for the customer compared to purchasing from a vet. Because they are completely focused on the consumer, they understand the needs and desires of the customer and their pets and are able to meet the growing demand for more affordable pet supplies.

The Nutrecare range of products is from exactly the same suppliers that supply the vet, but at a much more competitive rate because of lesser overheads and lower sales margins. These two elements allow Nutrecare to deliver the same high quality products for your pets as your vet but at a deeply discounted rate. This innovative system was inspired by Nutrecare's mission to make pet supplies more affordable and accessible to the public. They take great pride and concern for their products, and animal welfare. The company has always ensured it helps aid and re-home unwanted animals by donating a percentage of every order placed to national and local animal charities. During 2009 it will increase its donation to help protect unwanted pets that are the victim of this current global recession.

Nutrecare. co. uk is easy to navigate, simple to place an order and secured for payments with all major credit cards. Delivery is within 48 hours and they offer hassle free refunds for anyone not completely satisfied with their order. There is nothing to lose, just pets to save.

'Animal healthcare at Affordable prices'

You can find all of their discounted pet supplies online at www. nutrecare. co. uk. or by calling 01562 825978 (M-F 9:15am-5:45pm). You can also reach them via email.

Veria TV Unveils Three New Entertaining Programs to Ensure Natural, Healthy Lifestyles

Veria TV Unveils Three New Entertaining Programs to Ensure Natural, Healthy Lifestyles

Labor of Love, Fun to Grow On and Hot on the Trail Launch Focus on Food, Fun and Family

New York (Vocus) February 23, 2010

Veria TV will launch three new shows in 2010 embracing a diverse range of topics: wild outdoor cooking, fun and clever ways to keep children active and natural childbirth.

Hot on the Trail takes viewers on a cross-country wilderness adventure, teaching them how to identify wild foods and create amazing dishes that are packed with nutrition and bursting with flavor – all in the middle of the great outdoors. From the tropical paradise of Hawaii to the Black Hills National Forest of Wyoming to Bridal Veil Falls State Park of Oregon, wild foods expert Sunny Savage shares her vast knowledge of exotic plants and her boundless passion for nature’s spectacular beauty.

“Sunny leads us through fields, forests and even swamps in search of the most stunning array of forageable foods from wild berries to mushrooms, acorns to pokeweed, cattails to prickly pear,” says Eric Young, VP of Production at Veria TV. “She then prepares dishes using these amazing wild foods right where she finds them. Cooking over an open campfire or with a solar powered oven, she creates a culinary experience unlike anything you’ve ever seen before.”

Veria TV will also launch their original program Fun to Grow On, which features brilliantly fun, fast-paced and easy to execute ideas for helping parents and caregivers get children up and moving.

“Fun to Grow On revisits classic activities, introduces new activities and reveals fun mental exercises that will engage parents and kids,” says Young. “We encourage viewers to submit suggestions for activities as well as wholesome snacks children can prepare for inclusion on the show.”

Labor of Love follows the real life experiences of midwives and expectant parents who have chosen a natural approach to childbirth. The “reality-style” program follows these midwives and their clients during their nine-month journeys toward birth.

“This series delves into modern day midwifery, challenges the status quo of the birth process and provides an alternative for one of the most natural processes of human physiology,” says Young, producer of Labor of Love. “We hope to better educate viewers on the pros and cons of making this choice by using real life examples to dispel home birth myths and rumors.”

These three new shows join an exciting lineup of health and wellness shows already broadcasting on the Veria TV network. With new channel position 218 on DISH Network, in addition to channel 162 on Verizon FiOs, Veria TV hopes to spread its message of “living life…naturally” to even more viewers in the new year.

Ducks Unlimited issues statement on Gulf Oil Spill

Ducks Unlimited issues statement on Gulf Oil Spill

DU has contacted state and federal wildlife agencies, ready to assist.

Memphis, Tenn. (Vocus) May 27, 2010

In a statement released today, Ducks Unlimited (http://www. ducks. org) CEO Dale Hall emphasized that the organization has reached out to both federal and state agencies and offered its assistance and technical expertise in the damage assessment and habitat restoration phases of the 36-day-old Gulf disaster.

“DU understands the frustration of watching this happen,” Hall said. “We are frustrated as well, but right now it is important for the federal agencies and BP to handle the emergency response and containment phase. We have offered our assistance in any way we can.”

Oil has been spilling into the Gulf since April 20, 2010 and is currently moving into wetlands that support waterfowl, shorebirds and other wildlife. These wetlands are also vital to the livelihoods of many citizens in the region. The Gulf Coast is a top conservation priority for DU and the organization is committed to reestablishing healthy wetlands in the Gulf.

“I have spoken to the director of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service and directors of state wildlife agencies in Louisiana, Alabama and Florida,” Hall explained. “They know we are there to help when we are needed. DU plans on doing what it does best and that is restoring and revitalizing wetland habitats. We have worked hard in the past to reinvigorate these ecosystems and we will continue to do so.”

The Gulf Coast is one of DU’s top five priority habitats and the region is one of the most significant wintering areas for waterfowl in North America, having wintered up to 9.2 million ducks and more than 1.5 million geese in some years. The area of southeast Louisiana most directly and immediately affected may winter more than 4.6 million waterfowl.

Ducks Unlimited is the world’s largest nonprofit organization dedicated to conserving North America’s continually disappearing waterfowl habitats. Established in 1937, Ducks Unlimited has conserved more than 12 million acres thanks to contributions from more than a million supporters across the continent. Guided by science and dedicated to program efficiency, DU works toward the vision of wetlands sufficient to fill the skies with waterfowl today, tomorrow and forever.

Top 100 U. S. Home-Based Businesses Revealed

Top 100 U. S. Home-Based Businesses Revealed

Second annual StartupNation Home-Based 100, sponsored by Microsoft Office Live Small Business and FedEx Office, ranks top performers among the 16.5 million home-based businesses. Recession Busters category reveals top strategies of successful home-based businesses.

Redmond, WA (PRWEB) December 1, 2008

StartupNation (http://www. startupnation. com) and Microsoft Office Live Small Business (http://www. smallbusiness. officelive. com) today announced the winners of the second annual StartupNation Home-Based 100 ranking of the nation's top home-based businesses. Organized into 10 categories such as Most Innovative, Recession Busters and Boomers Back in Business, the Home-Based 100 celebrates the passionate and resourceful home-based entrepreneurs at the backbone of the U. S. economy. The full results of the Home-Based 100 ranking are available on StartupNation's Web site at http://www. startupnation. com/homebased100 (http://www. startupnation. com/homebased100).

"The 2008 ranking shows that the home-based business is more relevant than ever. The current recession has spurred a new wave of home-based businesses as a response to loss of jobs, the need for supplemental income, and the sheer passion for blazing your own trail and running your own show," said Rich Sloan, co-founder of StartupNation. com and one of the country's leading small-business evangelists. "Home-based businesses are the biggest block of all businesses in existence, and we expect numbers to grow ever greater as extra bedrooms, kitchen tables, basements and garages become host to the innovative thinking and pursuit of success by millions of Americans."

According to the Small Business Administration, more than half of all U. S. businesses are based out of an owner's home, and home-based businesses contribute more than $530 billion to the U. S. economy each year.

The StartupNation Home-Based 100, composed of 10 top-10 subcategories, presents a unique look at the nation's top home-based businesses. Category winners span a wide range of revenue levels, sectors, ages and other characteristics. Categories include the following:
 Best Financial Performers  Wackiest  Grungiest  Most Glamorous  Yummiest  Greenest  Boomers Back in Business  Recession Busters  Most Innovative  Most Slacker Friendly

Judges for the Home-Based 100 ranking included Adam Lowry, co-founder of Method Products, Howard Behar, former president of Starbucks North America, John Jantsch, founder of Duct Tape Marketing, Mel Robbins, host of Make It Happen radio show, and Tory Johnson, founder of Women for Hire.

Many of the StartupNation Home-Based 100 submissions revealed that business owners are bucking the current economic downturn and finding business success in these tight times. Historically some of today's most well-known businesses started in a downturn, including Microsoft Corp. and General Electric Co.

Smart recession-busting businesses implemented common key strategies that helped them thrive this year. Winning strategies included the following:
 Developing a strong Web site and fully leveraging the Internet and search engine optimization tactics to drive Web traffic.  Outsourcing to capable external contractors to enable home businesses to get the help they needed without the overhead of full-time staff.  Identifying pain points in this difficult economy and expanding services to find new market opportunities in a downturn.  Paying extreme attention to building strong customer relationships. Though it is obvious that customers are the lifeblood of a successful business, only those businesses that truly placed primary priority on customer satisfaction and cultivated loyalty thrived in the tough year gone by. Home-Based 100 Winners Highlights
 Recession Busters. Recession? What recession?! Joseph Pickett is growing his business in this economy and is a standout winner of our Recession Busters category. His company, Expert Briefings, markets teleconferencing and webinar services to pharmaceutical and medical device professionals regulated by the FDA. He grew his business from sales of $25,000 in 2007 under previous ownership to $250,000 in 2008. The business is recession-proof because the pharmaceutical industry has a built-in budget for FDA regulatory processes. https://www. expertbriefings. com (https://www. expertbriefings. com)  Boomers Back in Business. For boomer Stuart Grant, creating Thunder Eagle Creations is an extension of his heritage. As Lakota/Oglala Sioux, Grant and the artists he works with create handmade sterling silver jewelry that draws inspiration from petroglyphs and bring new life to this ancient medium. Grant brought new technology to his business as well by building a Web site powered by Microsoft Office Live Small Business. Through its Web site, Thunder Eagle Creations connects with customers around the world. http://stuartgrantjewelry. com/ (http://stuartgrantjewelry. com/)  Yummiest. It just makes sense that the winner of the Yummiest category would involve junk food! What makes this unique company especially tasteful is that it is also wholesome. Laura's Wholesome Junk Food is sold nationwide and has fans around the world. Owner Dr. Laura Trice saw many illnesses that could have been prevented with healthier lifestyle choices and provides the wholesome snacks that make eating healthy a treat. http://www. lauraswholesomejunkfood. com (http://www. lauraswholesomejunkfood. com)  Greenest. Robyn Crispe has wormed her way into the top 10 greenest. Her company, Nomad Needles, makes the Worm Inn, a composting system for people who live in urban areas. Concerned about her own volume of food waste, Crispe developed the Worm Inn indoor composting system. Crispe connects with customers worldwide, through her Web site powered by Microsoft Office Live Small Business, helping them reduce landfill waste. http://theworminn. com/default. aspx (http://theworminn. com/default. aspx)  Most Glamorous. The desire for luxury fashions and glamour will always be strong. But for many, prices are out of reach, and who really wants to settle for a Canal Street knockoff? Shop Around Tours offers budding and even experienced fashionistas the opportunity to indulge their desire for luxury fashion at discount prices while touring the Mecca of exquisite design: Italy. http://www. shoparoundtours. com/home. php (http://www. shoparoundtours. com/home. php)  Wackiest. Mix Match Shoes was the first company to sell shoes one at a time rather than in pairs. This greatly benefits people who have two significantly different size feet, since they can buy just two shoes rather than two pairs. It also benefits amputees because they can buy a single shoe rather than a pair. This consumer niche now has a resource to save money and reduce waste (gone are the extra, throwaway shoes). http://www. mixmatchshoes. com (http://www. mixmatchshoes. com)

The Presidential Business Commission is a unique group of the nation's business leaders. Congressional Committee Chairman Tom Reynolds said, "This is an extremely prestigious position and one which Ms. June Klein richly deserves. Ms. Klein was selected based on her motivational and process leadership as an honorary chairman of the Business Advisory Council for New York."

WASHINGTON, DC (PRWEB) August 19, 2005

June Klein, CEO of Technology & Marketing Ventures, Inc., a management consultancy and venture development firm, has been appointed to the 2005 Presidential Business Commission. The appointment is in recognition of her exceptional service as honorary chairperson for the Congressional Committee's Business Advisory Council.

The Presidential Business Commission is a unique group of the nation's business leaders who will work with Washington leaders to advance the pro-business agenda of deeper tax cuts; health care and tax reform; reduction of government interference on businesses; improvement of investor confidence; and the creation of new jobs.

Congressional Committee Chairman Tom Reynolds said, "This is an extremely prestigious position and one which Ms. June Klein richly deserves. Ms. Klein was selected based on her motivational and process leadership as an Honorary Chairman of the Business Advisory Council for New York. As a member of the Presidential Business Commission, she will play a key role in enhancing the President's agenda and strategies during the next year."

Ms. Klein was previously named Businesswoman of the Year and received the Reagan Entrepreneurship Award.

Her Electronic-Boardroom TMVI (R) solutions in education, database, network conferencing, television, newsletter and consulting have been used worldwide since 1992. Ms. Klein is the author of a groundbreaking finance book, "The Evolution of Trading" which covers technology and regulation trends driving 21st Century Money businesses. Also, the book covers the history of electronic trading in the very words of the people who created Wall Street.

(Visit the book website www. EvolutionOfTrading. com)

In "The Evolution of Trading" book, Ms. Klein predicted and introduced scenarios like the recent stock exchange mergers with electronic markets or deals with Philadelphia, Chicago and Boston exchanges in order to secure alternative trading places to new Nasdaq and Big Board power. Ms. Klein plans to explore in Washington, the feasibility of small-cap automation. She is confident that marrying exchange automation to appropriate regulation would increase transparency, encourage capital formation and create an incubator for small firms.

According to Denis A. Bovin, Vice Chairman, Investment Banking, Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc. and a Department of Defense Boardmember, “June Klein's career has been an iconic example of thought leadership about the future of the financial markets. Her work on managing change, complexity and risk have become essential building blocks to today's financial architecture. Anyone contemplating the future competitive dynamics of the financial markets will find her insights extraordinarily beneficial."

Free Advice On Internet Marketing For Small Business

Free Advice On Internet Marketing For Small Business

Free Internet web site marketing advice offered by Camelot Marketing. Advice to small businesses includes information on how the Internet really functions and what it takes to obtain quality visitors to websites.

(PRWEB) March 9, 2003

“The internet is a global graveyard littered with small business tombstones. These tombstones are websites that started out with the greatest intentions and ideas. While small businesses understand their product or service they don’t know what it takes to stay alive on the internet,” states Keith Hunt Vice President of Camelot Marketing, a full service agency based in California.

For a limited time, Camelot Marketing is offering free, no risk telephone consultations to help small businesses with their online marketing. They will help with misconceptions surrounding the Internet and make recommendations on how to improve online presence.

“Not understanding how the Internet really functions has disillusioned many small businesses with the quality and quantity of website traffic and subsequently, sales. Some have even come to the wrong conclusion that the “Internet doesn’t work for us.” Another tombstone in the graveyard!”

“It’s not that the Internet doesn’t work, it’s how you work the Internet. If small businesses worked the Internet it becomes an endless source of new business. “Build it and they will come” is not a successful online marketing strategy.”

“We hope those small businesses that do not want to read their own obituary and decide to work the Internet will call us for assistance,” concludes Hunt.

For free consultation Keith Hunt can be reached at 909 987 1233 or through email keith@camelotmarketing. net.

GenomeQuest Appoints Dr. Mark Boguski to Panel of Science Advisors

GenomeQuest Appoints Dr. Mark Boguski to Panel of Science Advisors

GenomeQuest, Inc., a world leader in Sequence Data Management (SDM), announceS the appointment of Mark Boguski, MD, PhD, to its panel of science advisors.

Westborough, MA (Vocus) August 28, 2009

GenomeQuest, Inc., a world leader in Sequence Data Management (SDM) (http://www. genomequest. com), today announced the appointment of Mark Boguski, MD, PhD, to its panel of science advisors.

A twenty-year veteran of genome research, Dr. Boguski is an elected member of the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences and is currently on the faculty of Harvard Medical School at the Center for Biomedical Informatics and the Department of Pathology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. Previously, he served as vice president of the Novartis Institutes for Biomedical Research, as senior vice president at Rosetta Inpharmatics (acquired by Merck) and was a founding member of the National Center for Biotechnology Information.

GenomeQuest CEO, Ron Ranauro comments, “We’re thrilled to have Mark on our science panel. He is in a unique position – he is world renown in his knowledge of and practice in the science of genomics, the technology of next generation sequencing (NGS), and the software of bioinformatics. No doubt, he will help GenomeQuest to converge these three powerful forces and create SDM solutions and applications that help take life sciences forward.”

Dr. Boguski adds, “I’m very pleased to join the GenomeQuest team – SDM is certainly critical to and an enabler of the transformation of life sciences. If NGS technology is like the original IBM PC, GQ has the potential to become the standard operating system all the way through to precision diagnostics in a patient care environment.”

Immediately, Dr. Boguski will become a contributing member of the NGS Executive Briefings. GenomeQuest recently completed a related global survey through Cambridge Healthtech Institute. One of the primary findings was that, while most research organizations are aggressively moving to NGS, most executives would like to understand and explore the opportunity more fully. Therefore, GenomeQuest, with its science advisor and industry partners, is holding a series of executive-level briefings on strategic issues around NGS.

The news follows last month’s announcement of GenomeQuest 6.0Beta (http://web2.genomequest. com/product/our-product. html), which introduced a new category of functionality, accessibility, and methods to genomics researchers and organizations seeking to fundamentally improve the performance of their discovery process and broadly prepare for NGS.

To contact Dr. Boguski, please email mark_boguski@hms. harvard. edu or call 617.432.7375. Learn more about Genomequest6.0Beta at www. genomequest. com.

Design Coup Puts Brand Story into Action for Global Agricultural Manufacturer

Design Coup Puts Brand Story into Action for Global Agricultural Manufacturer

Design Coup takes AGCO's four core brands through its Brand Story process in order to create a new level of brand synergy in the global marketplace.

Atlanta (Vocus) June 17, 2010

Design Coup (http://www. designcoup. com), a strategic branding and creative agency, was chosen by AGCO Corporation (http://www. agcocorp. com), a leading global manufacturer of agricultural equipment, to lead its worldwide marketing teams in Brand Story Workshops (http://www. designcoup. com/company/brandstory. html) from January to June, 2010.

The purpose of the events, hosted in Suolahti, Finland; Beauvais, France; Marktoberdorf, Germany; and Duluth GA, was to build brand platforms across multiple brands and countries with a common, consistent structure.

AGCO’s four global brands – Challenger, Fendt, Valtra and Massey Ferguson – are among the most trusted and respected tractor brands in the world. Each brand has enjoyed its own long history and legacy, 160 years in the case of Massey Ferguson. The Brand Story workshops were designed to introduce a new level of synergy to how the brands work together.

“We took each brand team through an identical Brand Story process,” said Michael Higgins, a principal of Design Coup and leader of the sessions. “Each brand produces powerful and reliable machinery with advanced technology and features. Our goal was to identify the distinctive DNA at the core of each brand and build the brand platform around a key brand concept.”

Design Coup used its “Brand Story” approach (http://www. designcoup. com/company/methodology. html) to help participants experience the creative genesis of a brand. “Brands and Stories are very similar,” explained Design Coup’s Bruce Miller, who helped develop the course content. “We connect with our favorite brands in the same way we identify with a character in a story. Brands and stories both create emotional experiences where we project something of ourselves onto the brand or character.”

“When you include AGCO, we’re actually managing five brands,” explains Sue Otten, AGCO’s Director of Corporate Marketing & Brand Communications Worldwide. “As our brands expand from their regional roots and continue to grow worldwide, it becomes increasingly important that our brand platform can be readily implemented by anyone in the world. These workshops gave each of our brand managers a structured approach from which to develop local messaging that’s in accord with our global brand strategy.”

At the conclusion of the workshops, each team worked collaboratively to conform its brand platform to the new structure and refine its core components. The platforms will become the basis for implementing AGCO’s brand vision moving forward.

New Discovery Promotes Anti-Cancer Benefits

New Discovery Promotes Anti-Cancer Benefits

Ten years of research by two entrepreneurs leads to a new discovery in the field of plant germination techniques (PRWEB) January 15, 2000
Proprietary natural means, these two ingenious inventors while enhancing the germination process have produced significant increases in the net product value in a substantially shorter period of time. 

Pioneered on the less than loved, but the well known health benefits of the broccoli plant, the miracle cancer preventative and reversing compound “sulforaphane”was assayed to have increased from 0.40% by weight standard in the sprouting stage to areading between 1.01% and 1.83% range utilizing this amazing technique. Research conducted by R&S Sprouts has shown that the determining factor in sulforaphanepotency (utilizing this technique) is entirely dependent upon the size of the sprouting seed. 

Scientific research at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine as well asother noted research organizations have concluded that a high concentration of plant based “sulforaphane” found in broccoli sprouts is effective in preventing and possibly reversing cancer formation. Studies found that sulforaphane from broccoli reduced cancer incidence by 60% to 80%.(Life Extension Dec. 1997) Other studies haverevealed that this compound aided in shrinking established tumor formation. (Dr. DavidG. Williams-Alternatives Jan. 1998) Best of all it is said to fight cancer at a cellular level, and therefore is believed to target all of the different forms of cancer in the body. Production and delivery to the health foods market of this incredible product is in place and growing. “Vita-Broccoli” by R&S Super Sprouts is a capsulated form of the proprietary enhanced broccoli sprout naturally prepared, organically grown, gently harvested and air dried at the young age of one day. Each Vita-Broccoli capsule supplies the anti-cancer compound “sulforaphane” at a rate between 5.04 mg. and9.1 mg. per 500 mg. capsule; equivalent to about 3 to 5 ounces of fresh broccoli sprouts or between 4 and 6.2 pounds of cooked broccoli. Additionally high amounts of vitamin B-1 (thiamin) are noted at.73 mg. per capsule; 34% greater than traditionally grown broccoli

Sprouts. 

We know that the risk of cancer can be reduced through lifestyle changes. We now know that prevention, and the possibility of reversal, can be enhanced through Vita-Broccoli capsules. Prevention until now has never been so easy and affordable! 

Can you imagine getting the anti-cancer benefit of 12.4 pounds of broccoli with just two Vita-Broccoli sprout capsules, at a cost to you of less than 50 cents per day?

Woodstock, IL (PRWEB) November 2, 2006

InnCooking. com (http://www. InnCooking. com) has joined the affiliate program with Kitchen Universe® that supports Cook for the Cure® and KitchenAid® Home Appliances partnership to help fight against breast cancer. Cook for the Cure® was created to give those with a passion for cooking a way to support the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and the fight against breast cancer. The program has raised over one million dollars for this cause through donation-with-purchase programs, special fundrasing events, auctions and grass roots initiatives. A unique partnership between KitchenAid® Home Appliances and the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation generates donations for the fight against breast cancer when one or more three "pink" kitchen essentials are purchased.

"We were looking for affiliate partners for our InnCooking. com website, but nothing seemed quite right until we found Kitchen Universe®," says Merida Johns, founder of InnCooking. com. "Not only did we appreciate the range and quality of kitchen products available through Kitchen Universe® to add to our website store, but we were also pleased that we could participate in a worthy cause to raise money for breast cancer research," adds Johns. In addition to KitchenAid® Home Appliances, guests to InnCooking. com can purchase a variety of kitchen tools, cutlery, bakeware, and cookware through InnCooking. com's affiliate program.

InnCooking. com was established to promote old-fashioned breakfast meals.

But busy lifestyles have all but pushed one of the most social and nutritional meals of the day to the backburner. "INN Cooking's goal," says Merida Johns, "is to change that!"

As the owner and innkeeper of the Bundling Board Inn Merida has served hundreds of unique and sumptuous breakfast meals. Persistent coaxing by her guests to share her know-how in preparing these simple but terrific meals has guided her in starting her own syndicated column INN Cooking, its related website, INNCooking. com, and a series of INN Cooking cookbooks. The Inn's food-related getaways have been featured on PBS WTTW television and in The Best of Everything Magazine, the Rockford Star, The Northwest Herald, and Woodstock Independent.

Making it simple, but making it yummy, is INNCooking. com's slogan and in addition to purchasing kitchen accessories, guests to the InnCooking. com site can view featured breakfast recipes as well as purchase the unique InnCooking cookbook that includes seasonal breakfast menus along with recipes.
