A Simple Test to Qualify for the California Lemon Law

Friday 12 September 2008 @ 6:39 am

Many people are now becoming aware of the undeniable rights that they have when they acquire automobiles from car dealers and manufacturers. For those who feel cheated in some way, when they discover that their vehicle has troubles that the car dealer is not dealing in spite of warranty, they can take turn to California Lemon Law to seek refuge. However, combing all the provisions of this law would take time and a brief tutorial ?that does not come without a price tag ?from a law practitioner.

If you are just one of the many people who would like to know the gist of this state legislation without going through all the many (and often irrelevant) contents, take the test below and see if you and your vehicle are qualified.

Have you purchased a vehicle under a warranty whose manufacturing defect you did not know of at that time of the purchase?

If you answer this question with yes, this does not mean that you automatically are eligible for indemnification or reimbursement. This is a preliminary question to make sure that the way that you bought the car is within the bounds of the law. It is difficult for those cars that are unlawfully acquired, like smuggled goods, a purchase with the absence of a warranty and car insurance, or which have multiple owners, to summon the tenets of the Lemon Law.

The warranty is important because vehicle acquisition in California must bear registration in local government unit; insurance papers that would cover the vehicle

Tips for Setting Your Copywriting Rates

Friday 12 September 2008 @ 5:01 am

A copywriting job can mean brisk business, especially for writers who have the skills and experience. However, that is only if the writer knows how to strategically price his copywriting services, something that can be very tricky, especially for beginners. Setting a rate for copywriting can be confusing, particularly because you don’t want to overcharge and turn away prospects or undercharge and not be paid what you deserve. Here are some of the most important things that you should consider when setting your copywriting rates:

Different copywriters charge different rates

This is due mainly to the type of skills you have, your writing expertise and experience. Beginner copywriters, for example, cannot charge the same rates as more experienced ones.

The key here is to prove that you can deliver. Even if you have the skills but don’t have the experience, it can take a while before you can charge a rate as high as those charged by a copywriter with more experience than you do. This, even if you will be writing on the same topic. A Web article, for example, may cost only $75 for a beginner copywriter while a more experienced copywriter may charge at least $120.

The type of writing and topic

The type of writing project and its topic will also affect copywriting rates. An article written on a general topic, for example, may be charged at a lower rate than a write-up about a project with a specialized topic. Article writing, newsletters, brochures, ads, ghostwriting a book, news stories, press releases, etc. ?require different types of research and styles of writing.

The type of research that has to go into writing will also influence the rates ?the more difficult, intricate and technical the writing needs to be, the higher its rate. Extras that add value to a copywriting service such as search engine optimization or writing using HTML can also allow a writer to charge more.

To give you an idea how much copywriters charge for their services, here are some ballpark figures you might find useful:

For articles that will appear on a website, copywriters charge anywhere from $100 to $400 per write-up. If you choose to charge by the hour, the range can be anywhere from a low of $50 to around $85. For Web content that will fill 10 pages, you might want to charge for about $1,000 to $1,500, depending on the type of content.

For press releases, copywriters often charge from $300 to around $600 while others may charge lower, starting at around $100 or $150.

For sales letters, freelance copywriters usually charge a whopping $1,000 to around $2,000 per letter. Some, such as those still building their portfolio, can charge from a low of $200 to around $500.

The number of wordS

Many copywriters charge per word while others prefer a set number of minimum words per write-up. These become the basis of their copywriting rates. For example, a copywriter may charge a lower rate for a 300-word write-up than he would for a 500-word article.

The frequency of the writing project

There are different copywriting rates set for one-time writing projects and for continuous assignments. Copywriters will generally charge a slightly lower copywriting rate for continuous projects than for one-time only articles.

After service
As part of their copywriting services, copywriters often allow one revision per article which is included in the set rate. Further revisions and additions are sometimes billed extra or based on a per hour rate. Copywriters may charge from about $30 to $70 an hour to make their revisions.

Self-marketing

Believe it or not, how much you can charge for your copywriting rates will also depend on how well you can sell your writing skills. If you’re unsure of what to charge and less confident about your writing, you’re likely to charge a rate that is less than what’s reasonable for your level of skills and experience. Know your skills and be confident so you will never have to charge an unreasonable rate.

Never host a teleseminar if you don’t know your subject completely. You can’t always bluff, you know. Besides, your attendees will be able to tell. Always research your subject thoroughly, cover all the necessary bases and make sure your information is up-to-date. Anticipate any questions that may be raised so you’re always prepared.

Use Niche Marketing And Sell Books Online

Tuesday 2 September 2008 @ 2:07 am

One of the keys to making a great success of business today is in adopting a coherent niche marketing strategy. Too many people throw their product and services out there to a wide marketplace and fail to really take time up from to find a niche in which to operate. We do know that this is critical as we see all of the major corporations spending all their time to narrow down their points of focus. Businesses need a solid marketing strategy and this goes for all businesses no matter what the size, unfortunately many small work from home business people do not take the time out to study geurilla marketing and other specific business concepts.

One way we can focus in on a particular niche is to sell textbooks as we often find ourselves with hundred of old college books in our homes after spending many years as university and college students. One way to do this which is proving extremely popular is to sell books online as in this way we can sell our books to people anywhere they may be in the world. Using this form of small work from home business is really an effective way to generate a multiple stream of income as we sell back textbooks to those who need them more than we do.
