7 Small Business Ideas for Women December/ January 2016

TOP 10 REASONS

WHY THE TIME TO GO SOLAR IS NOW! With utility rates climbing into the stratosphere in many markets, there’s never been a better time for Americans to go solar. Here’s why every homeowner should submit a request for a risk-free consultation:

1. Installation is FREE. Yes, absolutely FREE. No upfront charges and no hidden costs. You only pay for the power your panels produce.

2. 24/7 monitoring is FREE. Maintenance, repairs and even replacements are FREE, too.

If for any reason your panels aren’t producing as well as they should, your solar professionals will be right on the case with repairs or even replacements. Homeowners already have enough to take care of. Solar panels shouldn’t be one of them.

3. No guesswork, no paperwork, no hassles.

When you go solar with Viridian, you get a team of solar experts to handle all the permitting and details. All you have to do is sign the contract and enjoy all the benefits that solar has to offer.

4. Save money on your electric bill.

Why spend more on electricity than you have to? When you go solar with Viridian, you can save thousands of dollars over the life of your contract.

5. Locked-in low rates make more sense than ever.

If today’s electricity rates aren’t enough to convince you to look into solar, chances are good that future rates certainly will. With Viridian you get locked-in low rates for the entire life of your contract, no matter how high utility rates may rise.

TOP 10 REASONS

WHY THE TIME TO GO SOLAR IS NOW! 6. Moving is easy.

When you sell your home, your solar contract can simply transfer to the new homeowners. Or, if you’d like to take your panels with you and circumstances permit, we’ll help you do that, too.

7. Solar panel technology has been stable for two decades.

A fair number of people have resisted going solar for fear that they’ll be stuck with out-of-date technology. But the truth is, solar panels haven’t changed very much in more than 20 years.

What will likely change, however, is funding for government incentive programs. Bottom line: the possible benefits of waiting for new technology are far outweighed by the energy savings, peace of mind, and solar rebates you may get now.

8. Solar power helps move America toward energy independence.

Solar panels on your roof = energy that’s created right here in the USA. (And helps create American jobs, besides.) Solar power is a boon to our energy grid as well, flowing in excess energy when demand is highest and offering an extra layer of security thanks to distributed generation.

9. Solar is 100% green energy CO2 emissions from fossil fuels are the major contributors to climate change. But solar panels require no “fuel” but the sun’s rays and emit no climate-damaging greenhouse gases. In fact, over 20 years the average 3-bedroom home with solar panels will avoid 100,000 pounds of CO2 emissions and will save 30,000 gallons of fresh water from being used in energy production.1

10. LAST BUT NOT LEAST: OUR $300 SOLAR REWARDS PROGRAM! Whether or not you’re a Viridian Customer, you can become a Solar Rewards Partner. The way it works is simple: When someone you refer to Viridian has their solar system installed, you get $300. We’ll give you all you need to make submitting referrals easy, including your own personal website. Participating is free and there’s no limit to how much you can earn. Ask your Viridian Associate for full details.

Marilyn Poscic journey as an Intuitive Angel Messenger and Medium My journey began in 1995 when her younger brother passed of aides. She began wondering what happens when we die. Is that all? Will I never get to see him again? She began learning more about the afterlife and was introduced to a world renowned Angel messenger in 1998 learning more about Angels. In 1999 while opening kiosks in malls in Boston she began seeing Angels and “dead people” around people and delivering their messages. Although the Angels were not frightening to her, the “dead people” were! After trying to run and hide from them to no avail, she began learning more about this spiritual world that we cannot see, hear, feel or touch like we do one another in our “human” world by reading books, taking classes and working with other psychics and mediums.

For many years she kept this quiet

to most because of all of the people making fun and ridiculing her and stayed in a “safe” profession, real estate! Through the years as she began to trust and see more, more and more people began calling wanting readings. She began to discover this was where her passion laid and started pursuing other avenues to reach out and help more people discover and understand Angels and bringing closure to those who had lost a loved one.

Ultimate Woman International

Her mother suffered a stroke in 2009. Marilyn had been an x-ray technician for over 20 years, watched her brother pass of aides, her father develop Alzheimer’s and passing in a nursing home a year later. Even with all of this professional and personal experience, the 5 months her mother remained alive, was a living nightmare fighting with the medical and insurance systems. She kept saying when the dust settles she was going to write a book to help others so they do not have to suffer the way she did. 4 months after her mother passed she wrote her first book Last Soul Standing.

At the beginning of 2015 she listened to her Angels when They told her to write a book about Us that is simple for people to understand. Once that book is completed, write a book that can help children as there are many gifted children in this world. Angels Simplified was published in April 2015 for adults and, Angels Angels Everywhere was published in September 2015.

“When we learn to listen and follow our hearts, all of our passions do come true!”

Marilyn is currently active doing private and group readings, spiritual mentoring, classes, presentations as well as her own radio show Journey Into the Light http:// www.blogtalkradio.com/journeyintothelight and http://www.latalkradio.com beginning

oal Setting Strategies

By Carmen Parks with Life By Design, LLC

2016 is almost here! How are you doing on your 2016 New Year’s Resolutions? Have you forgotten about them? Start now! Here is a proven 6-step system that can get you to your goals faster, easier and without unnecessary stress.

Step 1: Believe In Yourself. Believing in yourself is a choice. Doubting yourself only means you are standing in the way of your own progress. You can choose to believe the voices that say “you can’t” “it’s too hard” “who are you do be great?” Or you can have a rebuttal. Responses to the discouraging self-talk can be “I’m not there yet but I’m making progress” “It is hard but I’m getting better every day” “I am great and honestly it’s time for me to shine!”

Part of believing in yourself is being able to imagine what it will be like when you reach your goal.

Write down what you will see, hear, feel when you reach your goal. Who will be there with you?

How will you feel? It is a great motivator to imagine this moment every single day!

If you want some guidance you can download a free step-by-step worksheet for believing in yourself at HowToBelieveInYourself.com

Step 2: Outline SMART Goals. SMART Goals are Specific, Measurable, Attractive, Realistic and Timely. Specific – well defined, clear to anyone that has a basic knowledge of the subject. Measurable – Know if the goal is obtainable and how far away completion is. Know when it has been achieved. Attractive – Know why it’s important to reach this goal. Realistic – Within the availability of resources, knowledge and time. Time Based – enough time to achieve the goal, not too much time, which can affect performance.

For additional guidance, download a free SMART Goal worksheet at ImproveYourGoalSettingSkills.com

Ultimate Woman International

Step 3: Create Plan. It’s time to create action steps. What do you want to accomplish each day, each week or each month? This is for you to decide. How are you going to get from where you are now to where you want to be? Also make sure to include milestones so that you can celebrate when you get to Step 6.

Step 4: Take Action. This is the step that most people forget and it is a step that must be done. We tend to have all of these great ideas and amazing goals but we forget that we must actually DO something in order to get to that “somewhere.” This is sometimes the hardest part. But once you get going, momentum starts to build and before you know it you’re taking action and visualizing your way to your goals.

Step 5: Adjust As Needed. Sometimes life happens and our original plan gets derailed.

That doesn’t mean we need to stop moving. We can recognize these events as opportunities to adjust. Unexpected obstacles aren’t reasons to turn back. Adjustments may require self-improvement changes as well as changes in time frame, action steps or even a change in the final goal itself. And that’s ok.

Step 6: Celebrate Little and Big Successes. These are milestones you included in your plan. When you reach a milestone, have a reward for yourself identified. Sweeten the deal for yourself. You’ve been working hard and deserve to celebrate.

Remember that it’s not easy to reach a goal you’ve never achieved before. The key is to always be patient and kind to yourself. If you have a setback, it’s simply an opportunity to adjust. Identify what caused the setback so you can be better prepared next time a similar situation arises.

Meet Akili Worthy Akili Worthy is a Master Trainer, Speaker, Author & Life Purpose Coach. She is the Spark behind The Fire StartHer Sessions, a program designed to help women awaken to their power, walk in their purpose and win by using their gifts and talents. Utilizing a special technology, Akili is able to help women discover their calling and blow through the obstacles to answering and living the call.

Speaker, Author, Coach.

Spirit-filled…

Healing…Intuitive…

Transformational…

That’s the nature of a Woman!

Worthy believes it is a privilege to be part of a woman’s story. Her personal story is full of bumpy roads, hills and valleys and she is still walking. Through coaching, constant reflection and mistake making Akili has overcome sexual abuse, the loss of a child, bankruptcy and a host of other issues too numerous to list. Worthy says,” Like most people, I believed that I was my experiences. I didn’t understand that my experiences were simply things that happened in my life. This confusion produced depression, anxiety, and an insatiable appetite to please others.

I was constantly trying to reinvent myself to make everyone else happy. This was mentally and physically draining and I reached a breaking point. I was sick of being exhausted and not having anything to show for all of my hard work. I felt like my life was getting away from me and to top it off, I had this overwhelming, nagging feeling that I was created to do something greater!”

Ultimate Woman International

Changing 100 Lives in 100 Days!

She decided to respond to this call to greatness, and began studying Purpose. Akili discovered that she was uniquely crafted and gifted to impact the world, and so was everyone else!

Learning this was life changing for her, and she knew she had to share this message. Worthy became certified as a life purpose coach and a new journey began!

You can't change the past and you can't predict the future but you have the gift of living right now which is why it's called the "present".

Akili believes women are taught to forsake their dreams so others may thrive. Women should nurture others, but must be first on their to-do lists. For many this requires a shift in perception and behavior, which is why the assistance of a coach is so valuable. Akili helps women identify limiting beliefs and behaviors, then partners with them to create a life worthy of their time. She asks women, “What would you do if everything was possible?”

If you are unclear about your calling, craving more from life, and unsatisfied with the results you’re getting by going it alone, schedule your 60 minute Discovery session today! www.AkiliWorthy.com 480-658-5999

7 Small Business Ideas for Women.

Isn’t it amazing to receive such valuable information that can change the dynamics of your business. I am excited to share these ideas that I hope will bring you great success in 2016. These days we women business owners are changing ourselves, our community and the World! So let’s take charge! I have put together these tips to help your with your finances, goals that will get results and maintain and grow your business.

Create connectivity and get paid for it!

A good example of this is SmashFund. This revolutionary platform allows you to fund a project, charity or cause. Then share it and get paid lost of money for connecting people. For more information see the article in this issue. Let’s Ignite Excellence.

Use a pre-paid card to pay bills.

Many times we are not able to pay a business bill like a re-accruing subscription on time. And for this I recommend a Serve card. You can get one at any CVS and there is no fee to load it or re-load. Only a $5 Monthly fee. The good news is that you will not be caught -up paying high bank fees.

Do your research This one tip has saved me money and time. Before I buy something I will look at many places for different styles and price. In addition this also applies to people. Don’t be shy check out and learn more about the people you do business with.

Make a list and stick to it.

I love this one! I make a list of everything! My to-do list and shopping. This really helps keep me on track.

Have a plan This by far has to be one of the most important ones! I believe this is a good way to gage your success on your goals. It will help you maintain and grow your business and keep you on track.

Be sure to keep your plan close as you should refer to it frequently.

Find Like-minded women to work with.

Even though you might be with several networking groups it is a good idea to be a part of a mastermind group. This can be a very small focus group of women that share your vision and mission and can bring in some new ideas and perspective on your growth and make some good connections.

Personal Development Take time for you. It is vital that you keep your mind, body and spirit in shape. Watching and listening to motivational material can kickstart everyday to be a great day! Take care of yourself by eating right, exercise, reading, and resting. Your body and mind will thank you.

I hope that these tips and ideas help take you to the next level of success.

New Year, New Money! Financial Planning for your future!

When I was a young woman, a male financial professional patted me on the head and told me not to worry about money. My husband would take care of me. It was in that moment that I knew my calling in life – to help women with financial planning.

I believe that everyone – men and women – should understand personal cash flow, savings, and investment accounts. My specialty is the financial planning piece of the money puzzle.

Financial Planning Should Not Be Complicated When my clients come to me, it is my goal to make financial planning as uncomplicated as possible. We look at their personal finances and gather documents like investment and savings account statements prior to our first appointment.

At the first appointment, we get to know each other. I tell them how I get paid, the benefits of working with me because I am a fully licensed financial professional, and what they can expect when they work with me. I want my clients to have all the information they need to make an informed decision.

Once we’ve gotten to know each other, they decide if they want to work with me. If they want to, I put together a plan of recommendations and we meet again to go over the plan. It’s a simple process.

Know Your Accounts Sometimes one spouse is more interested in handling money for the family and that’s okay.

Even if one spouse handles the family finances or day to day budget, both of you should know exactly what accounts you have and have access to logins and statements.

In a worst case scenario like your spouse becoming incapacitated or dying, you need to have insurance, bank, and investment account information at the tip of your fingers to pay household bills and other expenses.

Ultimate Woman International

Having access to financial accounts is important for both spouses as well as having a will, living will, and power of attorney. An estate planning attorney can help you get these documents in order and recommend a safe place to store them.

Money is an ongoing conversation.

No one likes to talk about money because it involves emotions and decision making but we have to talk to each other. Families need to know how to handle finances should we become incapacitated or worse. Set an appointment on a regular basis to review family finances with your spouse.

Taking time now to talk about financial planning will save you stress in the future and you will have peace of mind today. If you’re interested in learning more about financial planning for your future, please make an appointment with Shanna Tingom of Heritage Financial Strategies at 480-397-1184.

I bet you would love to even get paid for connecting others, right? There is something AMAZING about this company! Find out what today. Join our crowd! Let’s spread this amazing concept together and get our projects funded. Let’s ignite excellence!

SmashFund Overview This revolutionary crowdfunding platform is unlike any other. Giving 75-80% of generated revenues to the project creator. In layman’s terms first your project gets funded. This is the main initiative of SmashFund. Since currently, only approximately 11% of project on the current crowdfunding platforms actually ever get fully funded. With the social connectivity aspect, and funding of projects by SmashFund, we are confident 100% of all projects will receive full funding! Second, individual projects will get foundered faster because of the use of social media connectivity and SmashFund’s proprietary social grid called the Crowd.

There is a $49/ month for a project page and you own the page for life as long a s you continue to pay the monthly fee. There is now expiration date applied to your projects and you can change and edit your page after the first one is created. The ideas are endless because everybody has a project of some sort. Both businesses and individuals could benefit from a SmashFund page - the individual get funding for their project while the business receives free advertising as they donate to a special cause. Ultimately, both will benefit monthly as SmashFund pushes out revenues based on social connectivity through the crowd.

Bring the shopping to you, with ...Flutterbye Unique Boutique!

Flutterbye Unique Boutique is a Mobile Fashion Truck that specializes in ethically made and cruelty free women’s fashion along with hand crafted jewelry made by artisans in AZ and around the world.

The clothing I sell is typically made by individual artists, community co-ops or manufactured here in the USA and range anywhere from $25 to $80.

I am an advocate of stopping global slave labor one company at a time, starting with mine. I do not sell anything that has been made or produced in countries that promote the enslavement of men, women and children for corporate gain. I do sell items that come from self-sustaining villages in India, Vietnam and Guatemala where children are educated and the water is clean due to the wholesalers that buy directly from the villages.

Flutterbye Unique Boutique is a new Mobile Fashion Truck in the Phoenix area and I am excited about the prospects of supporting my community of small business owners by including them in my social media if I am parked in their vicinity. I intend to work with different fund raising non-profit organizations to help raise funds for issues close to my heart as well as raising awareness about the perils of slave labor in the fashion industry.

I am humbled by all of the support and love that was, and continues to be poured out in helping manifest this dream.
