Get Some Curb Appeal and make your Home Beautiful?

The very first thing that your guests see when they come to your home is the exterior of your property. The entrance, driveway, yard, garden, main door and every other part of the exterior of your home creates an impression. It’s time to elevate the curb appeal of your home and make the house even more beautiful.

How to the improve the Curb Appeal of your Home?

1. Beauty is on the Inside! Umm… Well, we all know that what’s inside is beautiful. But, when it comes to your home, a beautiful exterior is imminent to what lies ahead. Untended lawns and old decorations tell a story of negligence. With well curated lawns and clean exterior, you can paint a picture that conveys that your house is cared for.

2. Old is not really Gold You may love your home to have a rustic, vintage charm. But, if the exterior of your home has plain old, broken fixtures, it may not convey a vintage ambience. Landscape lighting fixtures can be obtained for as low as $50 per piece but they can significantly improve the curb appeal of your home.

3. Colors Speak Louder than Words When it comes to quick fixes for the curb appeal, exterior painting is one of the most affordable solutions. If peeling paint is visible on your property, it can ruin the charm.

Repainting the exterior of your single-story 1500 square feet home will cost you in the range of $2000-$3000. You can always opt for the DIY option but it is important to remember that exterior painting is more complicated than painting a room.

4. Too much meets the Eye If you want to create the right first impression on your guests, you need to take care of all the unnecessary fixtures and junk from the yard. Arrange the outdoor structure in such a way that they add to the beauty of your home. Avoid garden gnomes, take down old Christmas decorations, put away children’s toys, remove garish lawn art and untangle the hose that clutter the landscape.

Improve your exterior and make your home the talk of the town.

IN MOTION

Advantage of Purchasing Cars from Franchise Dealers Franchise dealers have years of knowledge and experience working with the manufacturer as a distributor for new, and certified used or pre-owned cars. They can help you find the vehicle that fits your budget and needs.

These dealers are certified by the automobile manufacturers and have the responsibility to make sure that their vehicles pass the certifications of the manufacturer. If you feel that you are getting a bad deal, you can hold them accountable.

Going to the right dealer can help you gather information about all these things.

Finding the right car dealer can also be the hardest part. Research the dealers in your area, read the customer reviews, even ask your friends and family their advice on a dealership. If you don’t feel comfortable with the information you receive, look at other dealerships even if they are outside of your immediate area.

Buying a new, certified pre-owned, or used car from a franchise dealer is a good choice for anyone looking for the best deals on certain makes. Only certified dealers can give you the best solution. This is because the manufacturer has approved the dealership and certified the service technicians to maintain their standards.

Franchise dealerships often work with many financial organizations that can get you a payment that suits your financial needs. Many franchise dealerships have relationships with auto finance companies and can simplify administrative procedures and documents for you.

Go on the dealership’s social media sites, and look for the reviews, pictures, and other details about the dealership.

HUNGRY

The Healthiest Things You Can Order from the McDonald's Menu McDonald's probably isn't the first place you think of to grab a healthy meal, but sometimes it's the most convenient. Luckily, the fast-food joint has made a big push toward helping customers make better choices, like adding calorie counts to their menu, making Happy Meals healthier by 2022, and eliminating trans fats.

You don't need to stick to salads either. "Craving a burger? Go for it!" says Sharon Zarabi, R.D., C.D.N., C.P.T., the program director of bariatric surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York.

"The 3.5-ounce serving of meat in the classic burger contains a healthy dose of 12 grams of protein and is lowest in calories of all meat patties, at 240 calories and 8 grams of fat," she says.

You can add cheese for an additional 50 calories and 4 grams of fat.

Not all burgers on the menu are created equal, though. Zarabi says to skip the bigger burgers, which can sometimes triple your portion size. Your best bet? "Skip the bun, and throw that burger on a side salad with a light dressing," she says. www.shape.com

HEALTHY

WHAT IS A DASH DIET? The DASH Diet (Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension) was developed with the intent to help lower blood pressure without medication by the US National Institutes of Health. It is a plan that focuses on eating a balanced diet for good heart health. It is not a special eating plan, instead, it focuses on the simple whole foods.

DASH stands for Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension. DASH diet has been clinically proven to reduce blood pressure within 2 weeks in individuals following the diet. It is not only known to help manage the blood pressure but is also designed for weight loss programs, helps to prevent heart diseases, stroke, diabetes and some forms of cancer.

Who should follow a DASH eating plan?

In fact, a DASH eating plan can be a part of any healthy eating plan. Not only, will it help lower blood pressure but it will offer additional heart health benefits including lowering LDL cholesterol and inflammation.

How does the DASH eating plan work?

The diet consists of foods that are low in sodium and consists of a variety of foods that are rich in nutrients like potassium, calcium and magnesium are known to help lower blood pressure. The diet is rich in fibre that again helps to lower blood pressure and knock off the extra pounds which will in-turn assist in lowering blood pressure.

How does the DASH eating plan work?

Grains like whole wheat, brown rice, barley, oats, quinoa are packed with nutrients like proteins, B vitamins and trace minerals, fiber and antioxidants. Include fat-free or low-fat milk, yogurt, Greek yogurt, nuts like almonds, walnuts, pistachios, etc, beans, lean meat, egg, poultry, fish, fruits and vegetables.

Making a lifestyle change is an effort. It is a long-term commitment which one has to make for good health.

Laser Treatment – The Best Way To Remove A Tattoo

Kayaking is a water sport that can be beneficial to the mind and body. Just about anyone willing to spend a day on the water can benefit from learning about kayaking and how to get started with this rewarding activity.

The history of kayaking is interesting. The word "kayak" means "hunter's boat," and the Inuit used to rely on these small vessels to catch food by sneaking up on their prey from the water's edge. Some people still hunt and fish from their kayaks, but many are happy to use them for sightseeing and exercising.

Exercise, fresh air are just some of the many draws of kayaking.

Invest in Mutual Funds and Be a Smart Homemaker Diversification helps protect one’s investment against market volatilities and fluctuations. Once one gets comfortable with that, then he/she can start investing in riskier investments such as the stock market. Read here more about investment options.

“Never put all your eggs in one basket.” – Warren Buffet Investing is a very broad field. If one wants to be a good investor, then he/she must be willing to invest time to understand the world of investing. The more one can educate yourself about investment opportunities and how to judge them, the better the investor he/she can become. Investing, then, largely depends on one’s education and experience.

It doesn’t matter how small an amount one has, investing is still possible provided one can spot the right opportunity at the right time. Investing in the right vehicle creates long term wealth for the investor.

A good starting point to learn about the investing market is low risk investments such as bonds, mutual funds and retirement accounts. One can also diversify the investment and invest in all three of them. Diversification helps protect one’s investment against market volatilities and fluctuations.

Once one gets comfortable with that, then he/she can start investing in riskier investments such as the stock market. Before one can start investing, one should have an investment goal in mind, which can be divided into short term, mid-term and long term goals. The investment instrument should be suited to your goal with regard to accessibility of funds.

There is a Chinese proverb that says – the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is now.

$$$$$$$

One works hard for money, but it is all the more important that money is made to work hard as well. There are multiple investment options available in the market.

Email Marketing with High Conversion Rate?

It is undeniable that Email marketing is the King in Digital marketing and it is the most profitable business that you can do at home with internet and you can get extra income no matter where you stay.

Email subject line Whenever you write you email subject line, it is really important how you write and attract to your audience because they will open depending on your headline. Therefore, your subject line should attract them with powerful words. It is true that nobody like it long email message and they still have their personal issues and no time to read at the end of your sale letter.

Simple It is certain that your list is your business, however you cannot say who has degree level or diploma level or high school level. Therefore, whenever you advertise your digital products or services, you should target or persuade to all walks of life. It is super important that your content should be simple.

Passion It is clear that whenever you do, you should do with your passion not only in email marketing, but in other business. If you love what you do, you know your dream and going there with your effort and passion. You do not feel bored what you do and you will see the result in due course.

We can ask ourselves also " Do we want quality or quantity?" . It is all about quality. Therefore, you need to put your passion and effort to what you do in this world.

In addition, you should motivate your customers with positive words and they feel energized and love to read your email. Sometimes people need urgency to do action, therefore you can add some words like it is going to expire in 1-2 day time, and they will feel unsatisfied if they do not get this one. Before, you promote anything, you ask and read carefully what is good about this product, and think yourself " DO i like it and solve my problem?" , if yes, promote.

Email marketing is one of the best way you can earn passive income no matter what you do or where you stay. Now it is time to invest in yourself and set up your own business for your future.
