IMGives:

IMG IS GIVING BACK! Happy Giving Season!

The holidays are quickly approaching and the team here at Integrated Media Group recently kicked off our internal giving campaign, IMGives, to celebrate! A recently-established tradition, the IMG team annually picks a charity to which we donate funds and/or goods. IMGives began in 2019 when IMG proudly worked with Child & Family RI’s Adopt-A-Family program to purchase $500 worth of goods like clothes, food, and toys for a local family in need. This experience - raising the funds, going out to pick the perfect gifts out for our assigned family, and more - was incredibly rewarding for IMG and motivated us to continue this effort. After a brief break in 2020 due to COVID, IMGives has returned in 2021! The IMG family is bigger and more widespread than ever - with over 40 team members living in three different countries and eighteen U.S states. Despite the distance, we have been able to come together virtually to raise funds. We are incredibly excited to spread the holiday joy with our 2021 campaign!

W W W. C H I L D A N D FA M I LY R I . C O M

This year, IMG has decided to work with Toys for Tots. Founded in 1947 by the Marine Corps Reserve, Toys for Tots is a nationwide program that allows individuals and organizations to donate new, unwrapped toys to children in need who may not be able to receive gifts during the holidays otherwise. IMG is working with the Rhode Island branch of the charity to provide local children with gifts to unwrap during the holidays. As of December 1st, 2021, we have raised more than $450 - and our campaign is still in full swing! Integrated Media Group is proud to give back to the Rhode Island community this holiday season, and we are excited to continue the IMGives campaign throughout 2022. To learn more about how to donate to the charities mentioned in this article, you can visit their websites for more information.

The Perfect Pen for your Special Someone The holidays are around the corner, which means the busiest shopping season is among us! A quality pen can make a fantastic gift for the writer, professional, or enthusiast in your life. There are a large variety of pens out there, and it can be overwhelming if you don’t know what you’re looking for - so we created this helpful guide so that you can choose the perfect pen! Ballpoint Pens - Most ballpoint pens are either a twist style pen, meaning that the pen operates by twisting it open and close in order to write. Another variation is a click pen in which there is a clicker on top of the pen that pushes up and down in order to write. Fountain Pens - Fountain pens have a calligraphy style nib that uses a wide range of filling systems and offer a wide range of inks and colors. These pens take some time to learn how to use but once you catch on, they are addictive. Standard Ballpoint Ink - Ballpoint pen ink contains an oil-based solvent and pigment for color. The ink flows from a thin tube or canister in the pen and through a small ball in the tip of the pen when you apply pressure to the ball. Standard colors for ballpoint ink are black, blue, red and green but are available in many other colors. Ballpoint pen ink dries almost instantly as it touches paper, but because it is oil-based, it can smear Rollerball Pens - Rollerball pens usually have a cap that stays on the pen when not in use. When you are ready to write with the pen, the cap needs to be taken off.

Rollerball Ink (water-based) - Water-based ink for rollerball require less pressure on the rollerball tip to write. Water-based ink is less viscous than oil-based ink and deeply saturates the paper, resulting in a dark color. Water-based ink comes in a variety of colors, but Black, Blue and Red are the most common. Water-based inks dry much quicker and will not smudge Gel Ink - Gel pen ink contains colorful pigment suspended in a thick, water-based gel. The high viscosity of the gel supports more pigment than standard gel ink and also accommodates different types of pigments such as copper and iron oxides. Gel pen ink is thick and opaque and available in almost every color. Gel inks are usually very smooth, require little pressure to write. They are also slower to dry and can smudge if not dried. Something to keep in mind is that ink refills are not interchangeable, and pertain only to the specific pen it is purchased. Choose the perfect pen for your special someone this holiday season by visiting their website www.pensavings.com.

CORNERSTONE COMMERCIAL CAPITAL

Loan 101: Cash-Out Refinance There are many different types of loans out there, and they can all get confusing to the beginner. We’ll be breaking down one of the more common loan types we see from homeowners - one that can be particularly helpful during the winter months.

What Is Cash-Out Refinancing? A Cash-out refinancing loan replaces your current home loan with a bigger mortgage, letting you leverage the equity you’ve built up in your home and access the difference between the two mortgages in cash. That cash can go toward virtually any purpose, such as home remodeling, consolidating high-interest debt, or other financial goals.

How It Works

Cash-out Refinance A cash-out refinance allows clients to cash-out equity that is sitting in a property and not earning income. We can refinance up to a 75% cash-out. Seasoning may vary. This allows you to rehab a property, rent the units with executed leases, and then do a cash-out refi on the newly appraised value of the property. The program allows us to get you access to the equity that is just sitting in your property.

It’s very similar to a traditional mortgage refinance and can mean a much lower interest rate than what you currently have. However, with Cash-Out you can withdraw any difference right away. For example, say the remaining balance on your current mortgage is $150,000 and your home is currently worth $400,000. In this case, you have $250,000 in home equity. You’re saving money because of the lower interest rate, but now you can fund those kitchen and bathroom upgrades you’ve been talking about all year.

Why Now? Winter is a great time to do interior renovations that increase your home’s value. During the slow real estate season, you can bump up what your home is worth and be ready to jump right into the spring busy season. If you’re considering selling but have some projects holding you up - now is the perfect time to get back on track.

At Cornerstone, we are capable of handling any size loan for any need you may have. Whether you’re looking to upgrade from a kitchen, add a new bathroom, or even add a garage - we have a program for you. Our network of lenders gives us the opportunity to provide loans for homeowners like you. Whatever loan you need - Cornerstone Commercial Capital can help! Get a quote today!

Declutter Pronto O R G A N I Z I N G

by Josh Daly

FAs the owner of Declutter Pronto, Laurie Lindemann revolutionizes her clients’ homes and helps organize their overstuffed spaces into usable, organized areas tailored to their needs. But Lindemann’s success relies on entering her clients’ homes and offices—and the COVID-19 pandemic took a heavy toll.

the RI Relief Grant and PPP loan. “To me, the loan and grant not only provide financial assistance but peace of mind. Getting help made me more optimistic and hopeful, therefore, more motivated to keep moving forward.” To learn more about Lindemann’s services and Declutter Pronto, visit their website at https://www.declutterpronto.com/

Like many other small business owners, Lindemann needed help, fast. Her local SBDC referred to COVID relief programs that she was eligible for, and she jumped at the opportunity.

Are you ready to start writing your business success story? Attend one of our upcoming workshops or set up a free one-on-one counseling session. Register at RISBDC.org and get in the game today.

With the help of Josh Daly, the Southern Region Director, and the RISBDC, Lindemann applied for the Rhode Island Small Business Relief Grant. She was accepted and received her check in May 2021. The RI Relief Grant provided much-needed funds, and it also allowed her to revisit her PPP loan application. Changes to the PPP application process enabled her to use her gross income versus her net profit to complete the PPP loan application with a local credit union. Lindemann was accepted for the PPP loan, clearing the way for her business to move in a positive direction as COVID-19 restrictions lift.

The Rhode Island Small Business Development Center at URI is part of a national network of nearly 1,000 business assistance centers that provide counseling and training to small business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs. Partially funded through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration, we help businesses to succeed from start-up to maturity.

“Thanks to these two programs I feel as though I’ve turned the page and I’m on my way to a profitable 2021,” Lindemann commented about
