Roadside Assistance

During the holidays, we bless people and companies who provide roadside assistance. As we travel to our vacation destinations, the last thing that we want to encounter is a vehicle malfunction. What is worse than that is our lack of tools and parts to get our vehicles back into running condition. Roadside assistance providers are like angels from heaven during such times.

Online Directories?

I know of a web site that offers manual directory submission of websites to different online directories. I am not sure though how they charge their clients. Is it per submission attempt or do they get paid only for every successful listing. I also wonder what kind of directories they submit the sites to. Are the directories ranking well in Google and Yahoo or do they have high page ranks?

Skin Lighteners?

How do you deal with dark circles under eyes? I heard that there are good eye creams that serve this purpose. Some eye creams only mask the dark circles while there are those that lighten the skin tone and visibly reduce those dark circles. I am not sure though if surgery can do something about such a condition but advances in medical science should have something for this by now.

Do you?

Do you know how to get rid of wrinkles ? I only know how to lessen or perhaps avoid it. However, my techniques, though largely effective, is not one hundred percent fool proof. Here’s how it goes:
1. Avoid stressful situations
2. When in a stressful situation, disengaged whenever possible. Problems do not get solved by worrying anyway.
3. Use sunscreen. All those squirming under the sun draws lines and folds in our faces.
4. In addition to that, never squirm!

Merry Christmas!

This Christmas, I intend to add some nice equipment to my arsenal of fitness equipment in our outsourcing company. As my employees increase and thankfully become more focused on good health and clean living, my equipments become seriously lacking. Of course, I also need to expand my gym area. If the existing space is not enough, I will probably have to move my gym to another location.

Mature Acne

At this age, I never thought that I would still need acne products. Just last week, I had an ugly skin break that I had to apply an acne formula to arrest it growth and heal it quickly. Otherwise, it would have grown into a huge bubble that could have possibly been pricked accidentally and infected. That would have been ugly.

What Now?

Click here! That’s the equivalent of the “Dial Now!” that everybody hears on TV infomercials. The web nowadays, have grown so advanced that people can actually watch live TV from almost anywhere using wireless technology. Will the internet replace cable TV? I believe that the answer will be revealed within a few years as technology reveals the trends that global consumers will accept and embrace.

Monthly Collections

A friend told me that one way to sell life plans is to get a nationwide union (i.e. labor union) to collect a very minimal monthly contribution from all members. The proceeds should be deposited in a fund that will be used to pay for the funeral expenses of any member who will pass away. The members will be happy to pay a small fraction of the amount that they themselves will have to pay without the policy.

Outsourcing Outsourcing

In my outsourcing business, I have my website and gateways avail of services of professionals who provide managed hosting services. One might find it ironic that an outsourcing company also outsources some of its business processes. However, what we outsource is not a part of the products and services that we sell. We are in the services business but not in the area of data or web hosting. It is therefore but fine for us to outsource such process.

Do You Know That...

Let’s go to the mattresses! Most people or at least, most males from my generation knows that it means going to war. In the bestselling novel, “The Godfather”, the mafiosis rent apartments in strategic locations and fill it up with mattresses. During wars with other gangs, their hit men use the apartments as their barracks and that’s where they go to after every hit until the war is called off.

Tis the Season...

It will very soon be Christmas and since nothing beats the old fashioned Christmas cards together with any other gift, I will need to acquire a lot of address labels that will be stuck in the envelopes. Christmas is indeed a very joyous season and celebrating it joyfully is never complete without a lot of thoughtfulness. Remembering, sharing and gift giving makes the season very memorable. Without it, Christmas is just like any other public holiday.
