 Useful Advice From Star-Schein LLC
I would like to share something that happened recently with one of my clients. I’m
working with a local family. The wife works for a large multi-national company and
the husband works as a handyman. They became my clients this past summer
and they recently asked me to research the husband’s current business
insurance.

Of course, I agreed and the first thing I noticed in their current policy was that the
husband was classified as a carpenter. So I asked him…are you a carpenter?
Well guess what he’s not, because in the course of his work week he does do
some light carpentry, some electrical work, and minor home repairs, etc… In fact
he is a handyman! The commercial “class code” on his policy was wrong. This
means that if he had a claim while doing something un-carpenter like he ran the
risk of having the claim being denied by his insurance company and having his
policy cancelled. On the other side of the coin, his current agent (no, not me…but
a LARGE state-wide chain) has a possible errors and omissions exposure.

As a quick side note-a class code is the code for a type of business. This code is in turn associated with a rate. Each
business type has a different code which means each code has a different rate. For example a carpenter is generally
a less expensive rate than a roofer.

Sometimes an agent might misclassify a business deliberately because the rates are more favorable. An agent that
does this might lose the ability to sell insurance for that company, especially if he/she does this often. While this may
save you money on your insurance it could cost you a good deal more if your business is not classified correctly. The
point is; check with your insurance agent to make sure that you are correctly covered for what you do. When you
receive your commercial policy, please review the declaration page(s) carefully to make sure the information about
your business and its operations are correct. Commercial insurance policies are very specific about what they will
NOT pay for. If you see something there that either does not make sense, or you don’t understand…ASK.

When you receive your commercial policy and you have questions, your agent should be very willing to answer any
and all your questions about it. By the way, when shopping for commercial insurance, you may want to consider
using an independent insurance agent (like me!). They have more than one company they work with and if the rates
go up with your current carrier, they can always “shop” your business with another company.

 Tips for Choosing a Pet Sitter or Dog Walker
Provided to You by: Out of the Dog House Pet Sitting and Dog Walking

A person looking for a pet sitter or dog walker has many options to choose from when selecting a qualified
professional to look after their pets. When looking for someone to watch your pets you should consider the
following to help with this very important decision.

The sitter should:

●
Be insured for liability, including care, custody, and control of the pet to protect you and your loved one.
●
Provide references.
●
Provide a copy of the legal terms of your contract, including the cancellation policy and other terms.
●
Have some knowledge of pet first aid.
●
Meet with you prior to initiating services.
●
Have proper licensing for their service area.

Questions to ask:
●
Is the business a full time operation, or do they have limited availability due to another job or school?
●
Does the sitter talk positively about other sitters in the area, and seem informed about the industry and
other pet care providers?
●
Will you have the same sitter serving your home the entire time you are away?
●
Does the sitter bring their pets or children with them to the visits?
●
How often will the sitter leave a note for you?
●
How will your key be stored or returned?
●
Has the sitter cared for your type of pet in the past?
●
Is the sitter a member of professional organizations, such as pet sitting associations, humane
organizations, or other pet care group?

Advertising (continued from Page 1)

Target your market. If your ad market is senior citizens, placing a commercial on Cartoon Network isn’t going to
help. An ad in the AARP magazine, however, would be an excellent vehicle. Study your market. What are they
reading, watching, and listening to? That’s where you need to be. Television, radio, direct mail, search engines,
newspapers, magazines, websites, social media, and mobile phones all offer ways to reach your audience.
When you think you have found the place to put your ad, call them up. Any media representative will be able to
give you the demographics and psychographics of their audience. If their market matches yours, you’ve found
the right medium for your message.

Once Is Never Enough

To get your ad noticed it needs to be repeated. To get your ad noticed it needs to be repeated. To get your ad
noticed it needs to be repeated. For your ad to have an impact it needs to push through all the clutter. There are
several ways to do that. The first is multiple insertions. Place your ad in the same medium multiple times. The
more people see it, the more they will notice it. Another way is to create a campaign. Have several ads that all
share common elements. Each could be a different take on a tagline. They could share a common theme. The
important thing is that it must be obvious that all the ads belong together. The advantage of the campaign is that
you achieve the repetition you need while avoiding overexposure of your ad. Even better is to run
complimentary campaigns in multiple media. Let your print ads connect to your direct mail. Show your ads on
your website. Promote your facebook fan page at the end of a radio spot. As long as each medium reaches
your target market, you can use them in tandem.

Advertising Alone Is Not Enough

While advertising is effective, it
doesn’t stand alone. To enhance its
effectiveness, it needs to be part of
a complete marketing campaign.
Public relations, social media
marketing, networking, and more
will all enhance your response.
Advertising is a wonderful tool, and
like any tool, only effective when
used correctly.

Top 5 Reasons to Attend GBA Meetings
1. You never know who you're going to meet. Because our meetings are not mandatory
we always have a different mixture of members and guests in attendance at each meeting.

2. You never know what you might learn. Our meetings are topic-based roundtable
discussions. Everyone brings something to table.

3. You never know if you'll make an appointment or close a sale right there. Most meeting
attendees will stay long after the meeting to network and do business.

4. You never know who might be looking forward to talking to you. Many of our members
will look forward to the meeting in order to catch up with somebody.

5. You never know what you're going to eat. We take pride in providing a hearty meal,
whether it be dinner or breakfast, for our attendees. And who can pass up our famous
cranberry meatballs?!?!

Just for Fun!!!

Opportunity By John A. Esposito
Day 29 Angel Reading 29 of 70.: Dearest Most Beloved One,
With all the love and joy that abounds in unconditional love, we are here to remind you of the gift in the obstacles. When the
unexpected crosses your path with delays, changes in plans, or redirection, remember to ask for our assistance to help you choose the most
healing adjustments to your course. Notice the intuitive clues and signs and trust in your ability to discern.

When you allow yourself to feel and acknowledge the panic or drama, you will more easily release the need to be overwhelmed by
the emotion. The choice to breathe and release the anxiety creates the sacred space upon which to regain your balance. Remember that you
connect more fully with Divine Guidance when you release the physical and emotional tension with the deep, cleansing breaths.

“Opportunity” speaks to becoming aware of the perceptions that heal even when faced with disappointment, frustration, and unexpected
challenges. Perceptions that heal come from the depths of the soul. Look deeper into yourself rather than to what appears on the
surface. Ask your guardian angels to guide you to stillness, when stillness opens your heart and mind to the truth, and to movement
when movement is most appropriate.

For those who are moved to further your journey, Private 70-Minute Angelic Readings or Holistic Coaching Sessions infused with Angel
Messages are available by appointment for $70. You may reserve your phone or face to face session with Diane at 203-284-1204 or to
