Organic Coconut Oil Your Best Friend

Leave a comment

The health benefits of extra virgin organic coconut oil is a great way to look and feel your very best. It can be used for a variety of things you need in your life. You can get rid of costly products and avoid side effects. The organic nature of it means you won’t have to deal with any ingredients that aren’t good for you either.

Many people with serious skin problems including psoriasis have been able to benefit from coconut oil for skin. The deep layers of skin are reached when you use coconut oil. As a result your skin starts to repair itself from the inside out. The moisture will be retained too so you can say goodbye to dry skin once and for all.

If you want smooth skin you should use coconut oil as it will help to exfoliate the damaged and dead skin cells. What remains is soft and silky with a very pretty tone and color to it. Should you be seeing fine lines and wrinkles on your body the use of coconut oil can help to make them disappear.

We do lots of damage to our hair from the wind, the sun, coloring it, and styling. Coconut oil for hair though leaves it soft and manageable. It can also help to stop the itchiness and dryness of the scalp. That can often be the result of harsh chemicals found in most shampoos. The nutrients in coconut oil will also help your hair to grow faster and to have a lovely shine to it. If anyone in your household gets lice this can also help to kill the eggs and the adults quickly.

When it comes to your diet, you should use coconut oil for cooking due to the nutritional benefits. You can enjoy delicious tasting foods but without using lots of fats. The foods you prepare will taste amazing too so you will want to continue to use it for all of your cooking needs. If you are interested in eating healthy but also enjoying your food then coconut oil is the way to make it happen.

McDonald’s picks iMarketing Advantage, Planman Marcom for its digital duties

Leave a comment

In a bid to tap consumers online and make itself more accessible, McDonald’s India has zeroed in on iMarketing Advantage and Planman Marcom to handle its digital duties. The win comes in the wake of a multi-agency pitch, which also saw the Participation of Techriti Software and iStrat in the final stages for the business.

Speaking to exchange4media, Rajesh Kumar Maini, General Manager, Corporate Communications, McDonald’s India, said, “We really liked the whole approach of iMarketing Advantage and Planman Marcom. They showed us possibilities of ideas that we had in our mind. We wanted them to educate us technically and show us depth of their knowledge and we saw that they could comprehend the project well. All the agencies were good, but we wanted to go for the best.”

The company has plans to revamp www.mcdonalds.net, its website for the North-Eastern region.

On the brand’s strategy in the digital space, Maini divulged, “We were constantly getting requests from our consumers for our digital presence. We mapped these responses and figured out the strategy. We want a website that has every possible information on and around the brand. Be it for the McDonald’s joint in Noida or any other place, we want to put specifications and services offered at that particular outlet.”

When asked if the brand was looking to get into e-commerce, Maini promptly replied, “Yes. We will be beginning with the work in another 45-60 days and put the new website for testing thereon. Eventually, we will launch the web ordering system by the second half of January next year.”

He further said that the new website would sport a new look and feel with exciting yet simple user interface for users.Contrary to existing trend of launching a new website with integrated social networking tools, McDonald’s India has kept its social media plans on hold. Maini remarked, “Unless the web is optimized for us, we would not enter that space for the heck of it. We are looking at the kind of team requirement for this particular aspect of online space as we would want a dedicated lot for it. Right now, it is very nice for us there.”

While some of the other FMCG brands like Pizza Hut are evidently active in the social media and have even called for a social media pitch in the past, McDonald’s is very clear on taking control of social media content and forming a specialized team for it.

“We are hesitant to give social media to a third party, and if at all we do, they should understand the brand in and out,” he concluded.

Mom’s Mission is to Develop Kind and Confident Children

Leave a comment

The Halo Publishing author is scheduling presentations at schools, libraries and bookstores to help children understand the importance of having values such as courtesy, empathy and respect.

Valley View, OH, October 27, 2010 — Mom Nicki Donley is on a mission to help children feel confident in social situations. Inspired by conversations with her seven year old triplets, Ava, Lily and Grace; Donley wrote Cool Conduct, 100 Ways To Make A Positive Impression. The Halo Publishing author is scheduling presentations at schools, libraries and bookstores to help children understand the importance of having values such as courtesy, empathy and respect.

“I believe unbecoming conduct can hold a child back both personally and academically from reaching their potential.”

“My philosophy is that a child’s conduct should make them and those around them feel good and confident, not upset or embarrassed.”

Cool Conduct is a fun and educational question and answer book that identifies manners, etiquette and safety. The book is designed to encourage discussions of appropriate behaviors that develop respectful children. Donley said recent reports of increased bullying, particularly cyber bullying, make the book quite timely.

Topics include social, outdoor, electronic and school etiquette, respecting belongings, safety, verbal and non-verbal communication, table manners, healthy habits, public places, and acts of kindness. Donley also created a “Cool Conduct Pledge,” in which children promise to be kind and respectful to themselves and others.

“Children are reminded there is no reason to treat others with disrespect and to be comfortable with who they are and what they want to become,” Donley said.

Donley grew up in Parma, Ohio, where she attended St. Charles Catholic elementary school and Holy Name High School. After graduating in 1990, Donley attended Kent State University and earned a bachelor’s degree in Rhetoric and Communications. She has been married to Chad Donley for 13 years. The family resides in Twinsburg, Ohio.

Donley is working on another book to help children accept and love themselves, just as they are. In addition to writing books, Donley is the owner of “Move Over Cards,” a stationery company that offers environmentally friendly gift enclosures. An avid recycler, Move Over Cards designs products from recycled paper and uses no wasteful envelopes.

Their philosophy is “Be Good to the Earth”

Debt Collection – the Hidden Cash Flow Solution for SME’s – Professional Debt Collection An Essential Strategy

Leave a comment

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, 27 Oct 2010 When business owners think of meeting cash flow requirements in their businesses they typically think of two things – borrowing more money and putting more equity in the businesses. These are the traditional sources of business capital.

Most business owners and financial managers don’t realize it but one of the most powerful and cheapest ways of enhancing working capital and cash flow is to reduce their outstanding debtors. This can realistically be achieved through good management and following strict policies in the company.

Some of the policy items would include proper credit checks on every new debtor, and good trade terms that protects their businesses properly.

But very important is the policy on delinquent or slow paying debtors. Such a policy should definitely include referring such debt to a debt collection agency. There is no question that a collection agency typically achieves much better results for a business compared to an in-house effort. And Debt Collection Queensland (DCQ) does this professionally with great results, even offering a guarantee. The guarantee is based on the no win no fee concept. Debt Collection Queensland will at their cost send letters, faxes, emails, make follow up calls, negotiate settlement and payment terms – and only if the debtor pays, will they retain a professional fee for their services.

Debt Collection QLD have helped many businesses, from small, to medium and large corporate clients, improve their cash flow through getting poor paying debtors to pay up – debt recovery at its professional best.

About Debt Collection Queensland:

This company is a leading commercial debt recovery specialist, based in Brisbane, Australia. It serves small, medium and large businesses in various industries, assisting those businesses to quickly and efficiently recover outstanding business debt. It has a reputation in Australia for excellent customer service.

Motorcycle Tires and Accessories and Ride-On TPS Join Forces for Powersports Distribution

Leave a comment

MTA and Inovex Industries Join Forces for Distribution of Ride-On Tire Protection System Line of Tire Balancing-Sealants to Motorcycle Dealerships.

Choudrant, LA and Sterling, VA, USA, October 26, 2010 — Motorcycle Tires and Accessories, Inc. (MTA); one of the nation’s largest motorcycle tires, parts and accessories distributors, and Inovex Industries, Inc.; the manufacturer of Ride-On Tire Protection System (TPS), the only proven high-speed tire balancer and sealant, announce their intentions to distribute Ride-On TPS across North America through retail motorcycle dealerships. “We consider the motorcycle and powersports market segment as potentially our most important.” Says Mark Farkhan, CEO of Inovex, “the only thing between a rider and the road is his tires, and a flat can mean the difference between life and death – literally. Our product gives those tires the best chance to perform at their optimum capacity through balancing, air pressure maintenance, and flat prevention that keeps a rider where he belongs – upright and on the road. It also offers a chance for dealerships to establish a new revenue stream in a market where many are seeing a decline in sales.”

Says Larry Popp, President of MTA, “As the traditional balancing compound of lead weights increasingly came under fire for its negative environmental impact (it has been banned in CA), MTA wanted an alternative. Ride-On exceeded our expectations with its ability to balance tires as well as assisting in flat prevention and helping stabilize tire pressure in a similar manner to nitrogen-just without the mess you would expect from a tire sealant. We are looking forward to making sure this one-of-a-kind product gets to market so that every rider out there can enjoy a safer, environmentally friendly, more balanced ride. Plus, it is more aesthetically pleasing than the wheel weights being applied on today’s customized bikes.” Says Farkhan, “we couldn’t be happier with our partnership with MTA. Their focused catalog, strong relationships nationwide, and hands on sales approach were exactly what we were looking for in a partner to help us penetrate the powersports market.”

About Inovex Industries, Inc. – Ride-On Tire Protection System:
Founded in 1995, Inovex is the leading manufacturer of the Ride-On Tire Protection System line of tire sealants.
