Lori I think that would be a great article to start off things in your Expert Guide Section.
Thanks,

Hey guys, do you think that we could try to get a sponsored section, they could put ads in from insurance companies? Just a thought to generate some income to produce the newsletter??????
We could approach our insurance companies to see if they are willing to do it, our home owners, our auto, etc. They could get a nice little blurb or do their own article??????
Could we do a state highlight as you run out of things to write about. Most people don't know who to contact state wise about insurance problems, but if we highlighted a state they would have all the information.
Just some thoughts. |

| When I was on the turnpike, all the ads were sponsored by insurance companies and they have the Nationwide cup series in Nascar now, seems like they are being more open, who would not go for a public awareness newsletter? |

I think it would be good for the "not covered enough" insurances, we tend to focus on the common here, auto, home owners etc, etc.
Sponsorships could lead into a lot of good things, maybe nationwide would give away some nascar tickets, LOL. You never know what it would lead into.
For example, State Farm, who does the sponsorship on the turnpike, http://www.paturnpike.com/tools/statefarm/info.html
They could do an article on traveling with the bigger trucks and other modes of transportation.
just another thought. |

I am sorry Lori, may be I missed that one. Will get to you by PM right away.
Thanks for the suggestions goodnatured, I really appreciate your inputs here. We will certainly give it a thought.

Lori,
I think this would make a great newsletter item, but can you shorten the title a bit? Maybe, "Do's & Don'ts At The Accident Scene", I don't know, it seems difficult to make it shorter. It's your article, so you design the title.
I suggest that you post the article under the "Claims" forum, Lakemen can just get it from there and place it in the newsletter. Can you have it ready by March 28, 2008?
Lakemen, is that soon enough?

I think this is an excellent idea for a later date. Before we invite insurance comanies to place ads here, we need to make the forum attractive to all lines of insurance. Right now, the majority of our forum surrounds auto accidents, lawsuits, teen drivers and other topics related to "auto insurance". Why would an insurance company that specializes in Workers' Comp insurance want to place an ad here? The same goes for life insurance companies or health insurance companies.
We must get our members and our guests interested in discussing other forms of insurance, then we would be a complete "insurance community".
We must take the necessary steps to make this forum attractive to all professional insurance agents, as well. _________________ "The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway."

Maze I would say it would be better if Lori wrote the article under her guide section, and then, if she wants, she can start a thread with a link to that article under the claims forums for every one to read. I can get it from there as well. Makes sense?

Lori intends to start with her expert guide section from later this week, so I wont mind if she has the article ready by the 1st of April.

Why don't we break down the community discussion areas into ''auto policys and claims'' ''Home Owner policy/claims'' "Life" "Health" Workers comp, blah blah you get he idea...and of course misc. insurance policy/claims...I think sometimes people are confused as to where to post too...not if it's a claim, but a general policy questions, or questions about purchasing different policys etc. _________________ "Never, never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well being of a person or animal is at stake.

Boy, when I suggest it, you give me a hard time, but when Lori suggests it, you are all for it. Go figure!
Let's just do it.

Was that an "AHH", like - "I'm relieved".
or an "AH", like "That's too bad, sucker!"?  _________________ "The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway."
