Laser Hair Removal

If you're not happy with shaving, tweezing, or waxing to remove unwanted hair, laser hair removal may be an option worth considering. http://www.shawnkyle.info

Laser hair removal is one of the most commonly done cosmetic procedures in the U.S. It beams highly concentrated light into hair follicles. Pigment in the follicles absorb the light. That destroys the hair.

Benefits of Laser Hair Removal

Lasers are useful for removing unwanted hair from the face, leg, arm, underarm, bikini line, and other areas.

Benefits of laser hair removal include:

Precision. Lasers can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged.

Speed. Each pulse of the laser takes a fraction of a second and can treat many hairs at the same time. The laser can treat an area approximately the size of a quarter every second. Small areas such as the upper lip can be treated in less than a minute, and large areas, such as the back or legs, may take up to an hour.

Predictability. Ninety percent of patients have permanent hair loss after an average of three to five sessions.

Benefits of Coconut Oil

Posted by Dixie Lincoln-Nichols on August 23, 2011 at 3:00am

I think by now everyone knows that one of my favorite oils is coconut oil. If you've read my bio and listened to the story behind Dixie Bits, you'd know that it's the first oil I was introduced to as a small child growing up in Trinidad.

In my village there is still an endless supply of coconut trees and therefore, lots of coconut water and coconut fruit available for consumption. Coconut oil also remains a staple in our home as my grandmother still extracts it on the stove top. Needless to say, it is one of the oils you'll find in some of Dixie Bits' products. I could go on and on about how great and nutritive this oil is but, I won't. Instead, here are 10 benefits I'd like to share with you.

1. It is a excellent massage oil, moisturizer and skin softener. It prevents drying and flaking of the skin.

2. It is a wrinkle reducer and prevents premature aging.

3. It helps to treat skin afflictions such as eczema and psoriasis.

4. It is an excellent hair conditioner. When applied topically, it provides nutrition for the scalp. It treats and repairs damaged hair and can even prevent dandruff and lice.

5. Due to the high levels of antioxidants in coconut oil, it can also ward of degenerative diseases.

**When ingested, coconut oil can:

6. Reduce LDLs (bad lipoproteins) and increases HDLs (good lipoproteins), which means that it can improve overall cholesterol.

8. Strengthen the immune system.

9. Treat irratiatable bowel syndrome.

10. Aid in healing cuts and bruises and because of its anti-microbal and anti-viral properties, it's believed to kill some bacteria and fungi in and on the body.

What's In a Name?

Posted by PB31 Woman on June 26, 2010 at 6:00pm

When you think of slogans, what comes to mind? What brand can you recite a slogan for immediately?

Take for example the following slogans that have made their way into the memory of thousands:

Just Do It - Nike
This Buds for You - Budweiser
Have it Your Way! - Burger King
We Bring Good Things to Light - GE
We'll Leave the Light on For Ya! - Motel 6
Zoom! Zoom! - Mazda

Use the six components below to test your slogan and make sure it has what it takes to make it stick.

Difficulty: Average

Time Required: 1 to 3 Hours

Here's How:

Make it Memorable
Your slogan must be memorable. Make it easy to remember, something they want to brand in their memory and possibly even repeat to others. Take for example the above slogans, when you first heard them what was it that made them stick with you?
Key Benefits
Your slogan must contain a key benefit of the product or service. Give them a reason to remember it.
Differentiate Your Brand
It must differentiate your brand. Does it bring out the character of the product or services that sets it apart from your competitors?
Solidify the Brand
It must recall the brand name otherwise who cares who remembers it. The brand can be depicted in the words you use or in the image of your logo.
Rhythm and Rhyme
Create rhythm and rhyme. Does it rhyme? Does it have a ring to it? The rhythm of the tagline will help to stick in the memories of those that read it or hear it.

What is Target Marketing?

Posted by PB31 Woman on November 7, 2009 at 2:04pm

Imagine being the quarterback of an NFL team and calling the plays with a blindfold on. If you are wearing a blindfold, you are unable to see your target and it will be impossible to throw a pass to hit it. The Target Marketing concept is identifying your customers. Here are a few tips that you can utilized when you begin this process that will help you reach your goal.• Who are your customers?• What are their needs?• How to reach your Targeted Market?In order for you to select the customers that are best for your business, let’s examine them a little closer.Who are your Customers?There are two types of customers that your business can target. These customers are consumers or businesses. Most business owners agree that the individual consumers are difficulty to target because of the diversity, unpredictable, small budgets and buying preferences change with age. Business owners are stable, need variety of services/products and larger budgets.You can choose to target both groups if it makes sense for your business. For example if you own a flower shop or gift basket business. There are customers for you in both markets. It will just require that you customized you marketing plan for each group.What are their needs?There are two ways you can determine the needs of consumers and businesses. You can take the high road and hire a firm to do this for you (expensive) or conduct the research yourself. The internet is a vital tool with conducting your research. Most of the basic information is free and has already been compiled for you.It’s important to research because you will be able to find out what markets your competitors are currently serving, where market opportunities exist, and which markets will be most profitable for your business. Once you have gathered all this information complete a spreadsheet outlining the information. For example, if there are only a few Gift Basket businesses offering same day delivery. There is a need for this service.Here are some questions; you can focus on when you conduct your research. What products/service is your competition offering? What products/services can I offer that my competition is not? How can I improve upon the products/services that my competitors are offering? Ask your current customers what they think about your business.If you choose to conduct a survey by asking your current customers for their opinion include questions which answer the following:• Demographic: age, sex, nationality (if necessary), etc.• Psychographic: lifestyle, hobbies, interests, opinions, etc.• Geographic: place of residence, state, city, neighborhood• Behavioral: use of products or services.• Benefit : perceived benefits from products and servicesIt’s important that you reward your customers for providing their opinion. For example, give them a generous coupon for a discount off of your products or service.How to reach your Targeted Market?Now that you done all this research, it’s time to reach your Target Market. Here are a few ideas for your business to market their products/services to your targeted market.• All outgoing documents or electronic mail should promote your business• Send our press release directed at your targeted market• Spend your time online to promote your business• Buddy Marketing with someone who compliments your products/services but is not the same as yours.• Giveaways that promote your business• Participate in networking groups, conferences and seminars

Employers Are Now Offering Housing Benefits...Find out how and why they are doing it...

Posted by Denise R. McCoy on October 8, 2009 at 7:30pm

Ezine Article by Denise R. McCoyEmployers have it tough these days. In the everchanging world of employee relations, how can you be sure that your employees are truly happy with you as an employer? Are you gauging their happiness by using the traditioanl checks and balances?Do they show up everyday?--check! Are they well groomed?--check! Do they report to work on time?--check! Have they told you how much they appreciate their job? During the last employee review, was it an improvement from the previous 6 to 12 months, or has there been a change in their performance?Well, let's hope this New Housing Employee Benefits: Building Moral, Retaining Employees & Recruiting Top Talent can help shed some light on a traditional subject with an innovative spin.Remember the game, Family Feud? During the 30 minute game show families from all over the United States would compete for a chance to win $10,000.00 by guessing what America thought about certain topics. The questions would go something like this...."Name something found in your mother's purse?" "This is something you might consume after you eat a spicy meal." "Name something a teenage girl looks forward to?" Truly, there was never a wrong or right answer. The only answer was YOUR answer.Imagine you invited me to visit with you this afternoon. Let's say, I stopped by during the lunch hour. The purpose of my visit is to help you gain a better understanding of how your employees see YOU as their employer. The core focus of my discussion is your current benefits package. I might ask your employees, "How would you rate your employers' benefits package? How do the benefits offered match up to the needs of your family? Are there any benefits not being offered that you would like to see offered?Again, this is a hypothetical scenario. By walking you through the exercise, I'm sure your wheels started to turn. You began to think like the employee for just a moment. Employee relations is just that--relating to your employees.Traditionally, 401(k), medical, dental and vision benefits were the norm for any job. However, alot has changed. Employees are looking for a benefits package that is tangible with the ability to build long term stability and growth. Although the same old benefits program is still widely received by most employees, offering an innovative alternative could change the landscape of your business model tremendously.The National Association of Realtors is the largest trade organization in the world. To date, they have over 1 million Realtor members. They are the "Voice of Real Estate". The NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® was founded as the National Association of Real Estate Exchanges on May 12, 1908, at the YMCA Auditorium in Chicago, IL. Their code of ethics was adopted in 1913, as the "Golden Rule." Visit www.Realtor.org. After 101 years in existence, NAR remains the most trusted name in Real Estate.Recently, the National Association of Realtors made history during the launch of one of the most innovative employer assisted housing benefits program (EAH), known as Home from Work. The program encourages employers to help their valued employees realize their dream of home ownership by assisting them with the purchase process.To help get the word out about the program, Realtors are trained by Certified Trainer/Instructors in the benefits of the Home from Work program. They are shown how to introduce the concept to their local associations, non-profit housing agencies and employers. As you can imagine, Realtors are more than just agents. Many consumers see real estate professionals as housing advocates. The Home from Work program allows Realtors the opportunity to become leaders in their community with the power and ability to effect positive change.Employers may wonder how they may benefit by offering such a program. There are three key benefits of the Home from Work Employer Assisted Housing Benefits Program:*On-site home buyer education workshops conducted by Realtors and lenders*On-one-one counseling administered by a non-profit housing agency*Financial incentive (matched savings, grant, deferred loan.Traditionally, potential homeowners face 3 hurdles. Lack of information, lack of confidence and lack of funds are barriers to homeownership. It's only fitting that the 3 benefits of the HFW programs, cancel out these barriers.Employers like Kaiser, Agilent, National Bank of Redwoods, Novato Hospital and the North Main Water District have developed a successful EAH benefits campaign and so can you. Housing benefits help build moral, retain employees and adds a new flavor to your recruitment efforts. Not only that, employers that are proactive in building good employee/employer relations are seen as leaders on the cutting edge of what's new and what's next for their respective industries.Still not convinced your employees would respond favorably to such a program? I would encourage you to devote 5 minutes of your time by asking them. Not sure how to do that? Email a request for the "Employee Homeownership Survey", to Denise.McCoyTilson@ReaRealtors.com.com.The survey only takes 4 minutes to complete. You will be amazed at the responses and well on your way to becoming a better employer.Think your employer might like this idea? Share this article with them or connect with me directly:denise.mccoytilson@rearealtors.com.

Sista's--Why Rent When You Can Buy? Here's the answer to this age old question...

Posted by Denise R. McCoy on October 8, 2009 at 7:25pm

Homeownership–It’s NOT Just About MoneyThe “numbers tell the story” examples should ease your mind about the financial aspects of becoming a homeowner. But there are other, less monetary, benefits to homeownership that may partially explain the fact that buyers buy when they are ready.Several research studies indicate that homeownership adds to the value of communities, has positive effects on children, and even contributes to increased voter participation rates.Homeownership: The American Dream More than two thirds of American households own their own home. They know the benefits of homeownership, from the accumulation of home equity, tax incentives, and the pride of owning a place of their own. They also had to take that first step of deciding “I’m ready to be a homeowner.” REALTORS® assisted many of today’s 75 million homeowners in both their decision to buy and their first home purchase. REALTORS® are real estate professionals who are members of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® and who abide by the Association’s strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice.They can help guide you to first-time homebuyer programs in your area, as well as assist you in searching for and buying your home.Why Not Wait?You may wonder whether it is worthwhile to wait to purchase your home until prices are at their lowest. Prices are not the only factor that should drive your decision. Currently, interest rates are at generational lows that greatly improve the affordability of homes. Further on the annual cost table, you can see that even if home prices decline, the possible tax savings of owning a home lead to a lower cost for the buyer, not the renter. Also,there are special, additional tax benefits for first time home buyers that may be available for a limited time only.Finally, and most importantly, when you have made the decision to commit to homeownership because you are financially ready, market conditions are a secondary concern. In fact, the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® 2008 Profile of Home Buyersand Sellers found that more than four in ten buyers purchased a home because the buyer was ready to make the commitment to homeownership.care of NAR

How to Develop New Customers in Four Easy Steps

Posted by Wyteria Jacobo on November 7, 2008 at 2:16am

Did you know?

It costs 5 to 10 times more to find a new customer than it costs to retain an existing customer. This is why customer retention is so important. Equally important, however, is the need to attract new customers. Follow these four steps:

1) Get their attention!

Dramatize the biggest impact your products and services will have on their lives or business.

2) Keep their interest!

Do not bore your readers with lengthy prose. Talk about your product in short simple sentences.

3) Create desire!

Focus on the benefits rather than features. Benefits sell, features tell.

Use pictures or interesting descriptions.

4) Provide a compelling reason for why they should buy from you!

Sell them before your competitor does.

Ask For The Order!

HEALTH BENEFITS OF LOSING WEIGHT

Posted by Healthy and Fit 4 Life on October 9, 2008 at 5:14pm

by Kimberly Dawn WellsMost people would agree that maintaining a healthy weight is beneficial to their health, but would you guess that just losing 5-10 pounds could cut your risk of many diseases by 25%, 35%, or even 50% or more? Extra body fat affects your body chemistry, posture, and even how other organs communicate with each other. The following conditions can be improved or even reversed through healthy weight loss.Heart diseaseA multitude of related illnesses are commonly seen in overweight individuals. Poor diet leads to high cholesterol levels, which leads to arteriosclerosis, which leads to high blood pressure and increased risk of heart attacks and strokes. All five diseases can be greatly improved with just a 10-15 percent weight loss.Sleep apneaA disturbance caused by an upper airway blockage, sleep apnea is common in overweight individuals due to enlarged airway anatomy that can become closed during sleep. Losing weight can result in more restful sleep and more stable oxygen levels.DiabetesOverweight individuals are twice as likely to develop type 1 or 2 diabetes than people who maintain a healthy weight. Diabetes itself, besides being a bother to your diet and lifestyle, comes with many of its own serious health consequences that at their worst include blindness and loss of extremities due to amputation.Arthritis and goutA heavier frame means more weight to carry around, which can be a strain for aging muscles and joints. Weight loss that allows you to be more mobile can result in better blood flow, better flexibility, and a higher level of physical independence as you age.CancersWhile many cancers are not directly linked to being overweight, the chances of being diagnosed with cancer are higher for overweight individuals. This is due to both the extra weight and the lack of nutrients that may accompany a poor diet.Emotional benefitsWhen you look good, you feel good. Losing weight can be a powerful tool in restoring the self esteem that many people lose when they begin to gain weight. Besides feeling better about how you look, losing weight through exercise releases feel-good hormones into your blood stream, which further boosts your mood and confidence.Increased energyThe less weight you have to drag around, the more energy you will have. Just getting started with an exercise routine is often enough to kick-start your energy into an upward spiral of exercise, more energy, more exercise, further weight loss, more energy, etc.Weight loss in overweight individuals translates to a lot more than just a decrease in high blood pressure and risk of disease. Losing just a few extra pounds can create total-body benefits that are seen both immediately and in the future. If you are overweight and considering your need to lose weight, this list of moderate to serious health problems gives you several good reasons to take action and start making changes today.If you are ready to start living a healthier lifestyle, visit my page and send me a message or comment.
