Content for Business Owners


I am creating content for business owners and here are some great tips learned while working on this content:

A Sole Proprietor transferring funds by writing themselves a Check is perfectly legal, as long as the funds are accounted for by the business. They can pay any expense, including payroll, bonus, or "return of investment" to the owner. As long as it is classified on the business record books properly.

On how to form a LLC - Limited liability companies (LLCs)

Choose an available business name that complies with your state's LLC rules.
File formal paperwork, usually called articles of organization, and pay the filing fee (ranging from about $100 to $800, depending on your state's rules).
Create an LLC operating agreement, which sets out the rights and responsibilities of the LLC members.
Publish a notice of your intent to form an LLC (required in only a few states).
Obtain licenses and permits that may be required for your business.

Cybercrimes and Protecting Our Identities

UPDATE 2020
There’s a TOWING company in the CAROLINA’S that’s holding all of my families’ birth certificates, social security numbers, sealed court records, sealed social security cards from the SSA office, and a confirmed  verbal PROOF of insurance and copies of the insurance payment receipt of PROOF OF Payments made to STATE FARM. I also met with, verified POLICY status with TWO STATE FARM agents that BOTH called to verify my “Active POLICY”  #FederalCASE



ORIGINAL POST:

As a content creator, I have the responsibility of protecting my client's data. Each day we hear about breaches in security when it comes to online transactions and protecting people's identities. One of the fastest growing crimes is identity theft. While speaking to an old aquaintance, I learned that someone had used her social security number to try to get a new car. I could not understand how that was possible when most car dealers require verification of ID such as a driver's license, insurance for any vehicles currently owned, or some other identifying proof, especially since you will be driving off the lot with plates, new insurance, registration etc. I also know that they make copies of these things in addition to collecting other data, but more importantly, this old friend was extremely puzzled because her credit is low, she doesn't keep up with her bills and barely had employment in a few years, but yet this still happened to her. Why on earth was she chosen? Who knows. I guess no matter our circumstances we all have to be proactive in protecting our identities and making sure we stay on top of it. If it means putting fraud alerts on our accounts and writing to regulatory agencies so be it. From what I read in the news most targets are people who have something going on....so much that they wouldn't notice, but anyway Trans Union, Equifax, and Experian have some really good protections against this: Fighting Identity Theft Experian Equifax Experian I also found out about Debix and Lifelock Lifelock Debix And......last but not least Fill out this report and push until you get results. Best, Michelle On a last note, auto loan fraud (even online) is fraud that deals with people who have "received" a loan and feel like they were defrauded while doing so. Update: applying for and receiving car loans online is not a growing crime due to the above mentioned factors. To learn about the latest frauds dealing with automobiles, click here:Latest auto fraud

Creating Content for World Breastfeeding Week: OVERWHELMING Standing Ovation

I originally had TWO Pictures in this post. 

GOOGLE deleted the other. Shame on THEM.

 This past week celebrating World Breastfeeding Week was very successful in Brooklyn, New York. The events were well attended, informative and most of all effective in emphasizing the importance, the promotion and advocacy of breastfeeding. For this particular topic, getting the message across was more important than creating the content (for me), because this subject matter is a serious one not only in America but across the globe. This subject plays a direct role in parenting through adulthood for our children. From my work and personal experience in early education and nutrition (how we take care of ourselves and our children healthwise), and how we support their education, (through our direct involvement with the schools), and the early foundations of how we communicate with, interact with and our emotional connection (bond) with our children makes a difference when the outside influences and streets start talking. This year's theme about being ready for an emergency response stimulated much discussion about the effects of giving our babies formula in emergency situations and the disadvantages of not breastfeeding our babies when emergencies do arise. On Friday, August 7, 2009 from 1:00 pm – 3:30 pm, I attended Brooklyn Alliance for Breastfeeding Empowerment's (BABE) 8th Annual Celebration at Restoration Plaza, 1360 Fulton Street (Between New York & Brooklyn Avenues). I gave a speech called "Peer Counselor Reflections" reflecting on my service as a Breastfeeding Peer Counselor. I graduated in one of the early classes at Brooklyn D & C in the nineties and have spoken to dozens of women about the importance of breastfeeding. On Monday August 3, 2009 from 12:00-3:30 p.m, I attended Cumberland Diagnostic & Treatment Center's Celebration and spoke on the importance of breastfeeding and going back to work.
