Not having the right Insurance can impact your life!

Having the right insurance can make or break your family budget; life events from the trivial to the traumatic, the expense of Insurance can be costly, but not having it can cost even more. With our busy lives, it is important to cover all of your bases. Some Insurances are mandated to have like car insurance, but there are other in-surances that we should have that will help us live more securely.

Most people are not familiar with insurances or it can be intimidating by all of the complexity. However, there are people that specialize in these areas. As busy wom-en, we like the convenience of having things in order. Health Insurance is becoming more complicated and with all of the options wouldn’t it be nice to have some ad-vice and help with finding the plan that suits you needs.

Having a professional broker guide you through this season’s open enrollment is a must. A licensed broker partners with insurance companies and supports the health insurance selection process. Plans can be private or on healthcare.gov. The objec-tive is to find the best plan that fits into the desired budget and supports the health needs of the individual, family and/or small business. Be sure to request infor-mation from www.healthcaresolutionsteam.com/agent/adrian-trice/. A short con-versation today and secure health insurance options for the upcoming year!

Most people are not aware that there is legal insurance. A Legal plan can help with Family matters, Motor Vehicle issues, trial defense, Irs Audits, 24/7 access to an at-torney and more. All this without worrying about high legal cost. How many times have you heard of or been a victim of Identify theft. Do you know that it is the larg-est growing crime in the United States? Are you and your family protected? Espe-cially during the holidays. Be sure to visit www.bparrish.leaglshieldassociate.com

on ways to protect your family for about a $1 a day.

Now is the time to take action.

We are here to help!

Oh, the joy of Insurance!

1. Clean out your wallet, purse, and glove box. Select one or two credit cards. Do you need your checkbook? Do not carry your Social Security card. More people report lost and stolen wallets to the Identity Theft Resource Center (ITRC) between November and January than at any other time of year.

2. Never give private information to a company claiming to be making you a special credit card offer, and beware of “your” bank contacting you with the claim that they are “updating their records” or have “lost” pertinent information. Your bank is not going to send you an email asking for updated account information.

3. Be aware of your surroundings…when you use your cell phone in a public place and give credit card information or personal billing information you could be giving identity theft thieves everything to steal your identity.

4. Shopping after work? Put your purse, brief case, laptop in the truck of your care BEFORE you leave work. Thieves are watching parking lots. If you know that you are going shopping after work, limit what personal information you take to work.

5. Prevent pre-approved credit card offers from being sent to you by calling 888-5-OPT-OUT.

6. Do not put outgoing bills or mail containing checks in a home mailbox or blue curbside mailboxes. Mail letters inside the post office or hand them to a carrier.

7. Keep track of all purchases. Receipts in your wallet – not in the bag or on the bag. Read your credit card and bank account statements thoroughly. When in doubt, pay cash. Do not use checks that show a phone number, Social Security number or driver's license number.

8. Holiday shopping on-line: Only do business with sites that display the “lock” security symbol. Go directly to the merchant’s website and not through an email link. Protect your computer with Spy Sweeper, AVG, Zone Alarm (examples)

9. Looking for an ole’ friend through Facebook? Beware…fake profiles have become very popular. The holiday time is an excuse for people to get back in touch. Protect your privacy of your profile by rejecting anyone that you do not know and do not include your full birthdate.

10 Buy yourself 2 presents this holiday season: A SERVICE for you and your spouse that offers credit reports, continuous credit monitoring, and identity restoration. A SHREDDER for personal or financial documents.

If you believe your identity has been stolen, report the crime to police in the jurisdiction in which it took place, call your credit card company to dispute fraudulent charges and contact the Federal Trade Commission at 877-FTC- HELP or www.ftc.gov.

A GIFT THAT PUTS THE EXPERTS ON YOUR SIDE: IDENTITY THEFT SHIELD The identity theft shield provides

credit reports, credit score, continuous credit monitoring and identity theft restoration For more information on Identity Theft Protection contact: : Brittany Ann Parrish 480-255-6459

Meet Susan Ratliff On the Cover

Susan Ratliff had no fancy college degree or

corporate experience when she started her first

business in 1988 with $5000 in savings. For six

years she ran a home based, personalized chil-

dren’s book distributorship becoming the 2nd larg-

est in the country. It was there that she honed her

exhibiting skills. In 1994, after a divorce, she sold

the book business, borrowed money from family

and credit cards to launch a portable trade show

display company. Over the next 16 years her suc-

cessful exhibit house amassed numerous awards

for business excellence and innovation as she posi-

tioned herself as an expert in her field including

Business Owner of the year from NAWBO, The

Sterling Award for Micro-Business from the Scotts-

dale Chamber of Commerce and the Positively

Powerful Woman Award. During those years of business growth this busy entre-

preneur wrote five books and built a lucrative speaking, consulting and event produc-

tion company, Susan Ratliff Presents Inc. In 2010 she sold the display company but

continues to provide, training, consulting and resources for tradeshow market-

ing. Susan says “I’m a serial entrepreneur who thrives on chaos.”

In 2005 she created the Women Entrepreneurs’ Small Business Boot Camp. This

popular event delivers an information-packed day of world-class insights, cutting edge

strategies, practical tools and relevant topics to empower women entrepreneurs. In

addition to eleven business building sessions presented by local business experts,

there are fifty exhibiting companies with valuable resources. The atmosphere is fun

and the day promises no theory, philosophy or fluff-just an arsenal of ideas and practi-

cal ammunition to help women battle the most difficult business challenges.

Not one to let a lucrative business opportunity pass her by, “and before someone

else decided to do it” Susan Says, She created, financed and produced the first Ari-

zona Sports Fan Expo in June 2014. Renting out the University of Phoenix Stadium

she created a super fan festival featuring interactive booths from all of the State’s pro-

fessional sports teams inside a marketplace of exhibitors offering health, fitness and

sports-related products and services for sale. The successful event was enjoyed by

thousands of sports fans of all ages and the risk paid off financially.

Make a New Year's Resolution To Avoid Costly Insurance Mistakes and Save Money On Your Auto and Homeowners Insurance in 2015Tips To Prevent You From Ending Up Dangerously UnderinsuredFollowing are five insurance mistakes that consumers should avoid, along with practical suggestions for better ways to save:

Insuring a home for its real estate value 1.instead of for the cost of rebuilding. With the real estate market in a slump and home prices down in many parts of the country, some homeowners may think they can reduce the amount of insurance on their home, too. But insurance is designed to cover the cost of rebuilding, not the sales price of your home. Make sure you have enough coverage to completely rebuild your home and replace all your belongings in the event of a disaster.

A better way to save: Raise your deductible. An increase from $500 to $1,000 could save up to 25 percent on your annual premium.

Selecting an insurance company by price 2.alone. Do not just choose a company with competitive prices. It is a good idea to also make sure the company is financially sound and provides good customer service.

A better way to save: Check the financial health of a company with independent rating agencies and ask friends and family for recommendations. You should select an insurance company that has a reputation for excellent customer service and will respond to your needs and handle claims fairly and efficiently.

Dropping flood insurance. Damage from 3.flooding is not covered under standard homeowners and renters insurance policies. Coverage is available from the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) as well as from some private insurance companies. Many homeowners are unaware they are at

risk for flooding, but in fact 25 percent of all 1.flood losses occur in low risk areas.

A better way to save: Before purchasing a home check with the NFIP to see whether it is located in a flood zone. If so, consider buying a home in a less risky area. If you already own a home in a flood zone area, look at home mitigation efforts that can reduce your risk of flood damage and consider purchasing flood insurance.

Purchasing only the legally required amount 2.of liability for your vehicle. In today's litigious society, buying only the minimum amount of liability means you are likely to pay more out-of-pocket if you are sued—and those costs may be steep. The insurance industry and consumer groups generally recommend a minimum of $100,000 of bodily injury protection per person and $300,000 per accident.

A better way to save: Consider dropping collision and/or comprehensive coverage on older vehicles worth less than $1,000.

Neglecting to buy renters insurance. A renter’s 3.insurance policy covers your possessions and additional living expenses if you have to move out of your home due to a disaster. Equally important, it provides liability protection in the event someone is injured in your home and decides to sue.

Homemade Oven Roasted Tater Tots

3-4 cooked potatoes

1 teaspoon salt, to taste

1/2 teaspoon pepper, to taste

olive oil

Depending on your oven, preheat to 425-450°F. Line a bak-

ing sheet with foil, parchment paper or (my preferred

way!) Silpat to prevent the tots from sticking and set aside.

Peel and boil potatoes in salted water for 15-20 minutes

until cooked, then drain. Grate the potatoes and place in a

bowl. With your hands, carefully stir in salt and pepper

and form the mixture into balls or small cylinders and

place on a sheet pan. Spray or drizzle olive oil over top.

Cook tater tots for about 15 minutes on each side until

golden brown and crisp on the outside.

The Single Most Important Skill to Get and Keep Business

VANESSASHAWSimply Zest! LLCThink Like a CEO: Overcome the Top 5 Dysfunctions that are Capping Your Income at 150K or Less

You think you are doing everything right, but sales aren’t growing. Find out what you’re not doing that’s holding you back. Learn how to get your customers to reveal

what they want from you so you can close more business. Hear the truth about what’s wrong with the way you promote your products or service and discover a powerful skill every business owner needs for success.

You started your business to have more income, freedom, and clients. But now, instead of acting like a

CEO, you’ve become your own poorly paid employee, working longer hours with unpaid vacations. Learn how to step out of overwhelm, stop working in your business, and turn your “busy” workdays into successful multi-figure payouts. Discover the game changing strategies business schools won’t teach you and embrace the mindset that will help you step confidently into the role of CEO to create immediate results and momentum in your business.

You wanted more networking opportunities so in this session you will select two topics of interest to discuss at your table. You will have twenty minutes for each subject to see how many great ideas and solutions can be discovered, analyzed and shared with your peers. The top 5 ideas from each group will be captured, compiled and shared by email to all attendees after the conference.
