Many people that are getting insurance for the first time don’t understand all of the technical aspects of the process. Insuring a vehicle is an important part of owning any vehicle whether it’s new or used. If you’re looking to insure a passenger vehicle then you will want to understand what type of coverage you should get based on your vehicle.

You will be looking at getting one of two types of coverage for your vehicle. There are three factors that will help you choose what type of insurance you get. You will want to consider the type of car you have, how old it is, and how much value it has. Many cars that are older have very little value to them and only need liability. However if you have a new car or a car that still has a lot of value to it then you will want to get full coverage. This is because full coverage will cover your car in the event of an accident.

This may be your first time getting car insurance so you will want to factor in the value of your car versus how much you will be paying for in insurance. An easy way to do this is to add up the cost of your insurance over 3 years and compare it to the value of your car. If the insurance costs are greater than the value of your car then you will want to get liability only. If the costs are less than the value of your car then you should get full coverage.

Liability is the alternative to full coverage that you can choose to have. However liability only covers you if you hit someone and does not cover your car. Many states require you to have some type of insurance. Liability is the cost effective answer to this law if your car is older. Remember that you should only use liability if your car is older or does not have much value.

Finally you may choose to add comprehensive coverage to your insurance plan. Comprehensive coverage is rarely used on an insurance plan except for full coverage plans. This is because comprehensive insurance will protect your vehicle from situations not pertained to accidents. A good example of this is vandalism or damaged caused by severe weather.

Most of the time if you decide to get full coverage you will receive comprehensive coverage as well. There are a few different levels of comprehensive coverage that you can choose from. These levels will affect your deductible and how much you will be required to pay on your deductible. You will want to know the differences between the two types of coverage as this will allow you to get the best possible rate on your car insurance.

You may be eligible for a premium up front discount rate if you pay your 6 month premium all at once up front. Most companies will only do this type of discount if you pay the first six months or a year up front.

You should have a solid and elite executive team composed of the best of the best that your industry has to offer and if you can’t attract those in the upper echelon of your business genre, you need to take an active approach to branding them as experts using on and offline PR campaigns labeling yourselves as industry experts who are innovating industry changing solutions. Create a stir, be controversial (but not offensive) and be ready to back up your stir with empirical evidence of your knowledge and success. You should have an advisory board and board of directors composed of industry specialists. Each individual should represent a forte that makes investors start to salivate when they are reading the bio section of your business plan. They should be able to contribute with contract negotiation, strong alliance introduction capabilities and more. When choosing professionals to fill the void of adviser and director positions you should think in terms of corporate ‘growth’ and ’stabilization’.

You’ll need a solid business plan, don’t write it yourself, you’ll only hinder your ability to raise capital. Call a professional to write your strategic business plan. Next you’ll need a way to distribute equity or debt shares, a Private Placement Memorandum is the most common mechanism for helping companies raise capital quickly and easily while staying within the regulation guidelines of the SEC.

They will reach into their gargantuan bag of contacts and give you so many funding options your head will spin, thus, making your fund raising efforts fast and painless.

Now that you achieved your first round of fund raising it’s time to get serious. Yes! It’s time to take your company public. Stay away from Pink Sheets and Reverse Mergers, you’ll only regret it. If you are a smaller business or a startup, your best bet is the OTCBB. Go back to your turnaround consultant and have them start putting you through the sec audit, sec registration, FINRA registration and Market Maker joint venture and S1 filing. They should be able to handle the entire ‘going public’ process for you and in 4 to 7 months, you’re public and trading.

If you own or run a company that is trying to raise capital in the current economic conditions you’ve undoubtedly been challenged by the limited funds available. Investors are more difficult to find and the individuals that are actually willing to part with their cash are even tougher to find. You’ve talked to friends, family members, your cpa and your attorney but trying to get them to invest is like drawing blood from a stone, it’s just not happening.

There is an easier way. Most broker dealers and market makers have an emergency number in their Rolodex that reads “Investor Finder”, these specialist consultants are brought in when there is nowhere else to turn for cash. A true Investor Finder has 1,000’s of investor contacts that they can call on to get funding for their clients and are constantly using online viral strategies to attract more investors to their database.

An investor finder usually is not a licensed securities broker/agent or attorney; instead they are traditionally consultants that are active in the investment banking facilitation aspect of the industry. Being that they are not licensed they do not accept equity payments or percentages; instead they work on a flat fee basis.

A good consultant in this genre can bring in 30 to 70 real investors per day and it’s up to the client to sell the opportunity from there. A typical lead from an investor finder will be an investor or investment firm that is responding to the consultant’s opportunity introduction email or snail mail mailing, they have read about the opportunity and they respond one of two ways, either they are calling into a phone room to be screened and qualified or they are contacting the client directly.

Many times the investor doesn’t know that they are part of the “finder’s” database but do recall signing up to receive investment opportunity updates, so either way the investor is solid and active. If you are trying to raise capital and need real results quickly and can’t afford to waste time begging for cash, you need to seek out a qualified Investor Finder consultant and make your fundraising efforts fast and easy.
