On Research

One thing that my clients like about me is my ability to research quickly. From best web hosting to great domain names, cheap furniture shops to discount concert tickets, high yield investments to ecommerce softwares. My clients usually hire me to just design their websites but sometimes, I also help them with research, market study and content development. I make sure that I do this for long time clients only and most often than not, they send something extra to my paypal account. ;) Anyway, the latest request that I receive was to read on construction business. My client is planning on putting up a small construction biz in Los Angeles and hired me (yes, I will be paid) to help him gather any info that I can find from the Internet. I’ve read and saved articles like “skills that you need to start a construction business”, “why some people don’t succeed”,” important numbers you need to know in construction” plus some very important info on California construction law. At first, I wasn’t sure if these were something he should’ve known by now if he’s really intent on making his construction business. Still, I sent all of them hoping some of them might help him at least on getting started. And he is very happy especially on the part about collecting receivables and liquidating damages. I’ve read about contractors having problems securing overdue payments so I’ve decided to add some legal information to prepare himself for future conflicts.

Pocket Watch

Father’s day is just around the corner. If you still haven’t found the right gift, check out these new pocket watches from jewelelegance.com. I’ve always liked how elegant it looks when men checks the time from their pocket watch. They just remind me so much of Heathcliffe and Mr. Darcy. Of course, it’s not something that you buy on a whim. It’s expensive enough that you can consider it as an heirloom.

Custom Tshirt Designs

I used to design t-shirts a couple of years ago and one of the problems I encountered was finding a good Tshirt printing company. There are just too many process involved like going back and forth to the shop to compare swatches and print outs. That was eons ago, though. Now, Tshirt printing is so much easier with the help of online sites like I-printForyou.com. This site in particular has an online design tool that lets you choose t-shirt styles, colors, sizes and upload your own artwork or choose from the available designs on their website. When you’re done with the t-shirt design, you can save it for future use, share with friends or get a quote for the Tshirt printing and order. Everything can be done online so it’s hassle free.

PR 4

Just found out from Aggie that my other blog, I Am Dzoi is now PR4.

iamdzoi.jpg

So what do I do now?

NOTHING.

As much as I want to accept assignments from the company-whose-name-I-can’t-mention, I think (even Aggie agrees) it might not be worth it later on. And I’ve never had a PR this high before so I’m going to leave it alone until I figure out how to maximize it.

One thing’s for sure; blog carnivals, tags and linky love do work.

Term Life

I’m currently shopping for term life insurance for my parents. I’ve read about it online but I’m not sure if something like this is available locally. This is different from the usual life insurance because with term life insurance, you can choose a specific period of time when you will be insured. A good basis for this is the age of your child or the number of years remaining before you can finish your mortgage. It’s also the cheapest insurance coverage with the same benefits and returns that you will get from a normal life insurance.
