MINDING YOUR BUSINESS PRE SECTION 2024

 I use to be "If I think it I write it." 

Thanks to life, I need a vacation just to write. I wish my thoughts would just transcribe to paper, but that is a whole other story all together. Sitting here at work, waiting for a call, thinking about what I would like to share with you today.

I am a full time, licensed health insurance agent and have been for the past 5 years. I have a real passion for helping others and pleasing people. Call it a gift and a curse, but the more I try to shake it, the more God shows me why I need to embrace it.

NO THIS IS NOT MY ONLY SOURCE OF INCOME

I am a six year licensed health insurance agent for more than 5 major carriers in over 35 states. I work from home and I love what I do. I am getting better by the minute being an agent. My dad gets tired of me talking about insurance and I am his agent...lol

I even have my sixteen year old granddaughter in becoming an agent when she turns 18 and work it part time while in college when she graduates but we will get to her later in a later Ari. Yeah, Granny life kinda lit....

In addition to being a full time agent, mother of 3. Grandmother of 2.5, (gbaby on the way), I started a business resource company in 2009. I started out pressing shirts for local artists around the city and it developed into conversations that resulted in profit for my clients. Just random conversations about business ideas I didn't realize I had store in me. (Gift) (Tbh-this blog is a draft I started back in August and life got in the way. Jordan (my grandson just celebrated being with us for 9 months. 

More so, a gift that I earned...

Memory Lane-

Being the only child, I never considered myself to be lonely, rather than I definitely had a lot of alone time. For some reason, I am know to have beautiful handwriting and because of that, I love to write. I also always had a thing for words so I love to read. I would sit in the bathroom just to read the newspaper. I was reading the employment secion at the age of 8 and dont ask me why because I would not be able to tell you.

MINDING YOUR BUSINESS YOUR WAY 2024

  FRIENDLY BUSINESS ADVICE

Born and raised on the south side of Chicago, in 1974. I was born three days before Thanksgiving. I always considered myself a "gift" to society, because I have always been a giver. I walked on my 1st birthday and attended school from the age of 18 months to 32.

From high school through college, I studied everything from business administration, psychology, starting a business, tax law, and various other subjects that have enabled me to do what I love which is almost everything I set my mind to.

Creativity is what I feed off of.

I worked in more than 40% of the call centers in Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin, over the past 20 years. I have gained experience and networked with quite a few individuals. I have attended business seminars as a hobby, educating myself to assist others. I have conducted a few workshops of my own ranging from small business start ups and one on one business coaching.

You will see me cover different aspects of entrepreneurship, ranging from

till quickly developing the mindset to take action and apply it to your business

IT WAS THE VISION FOR ME

IF YOU CAN SEE IT-YOU CAN ACHEIVE IT

WHEN life throws you lemons, you make lemonade. I run over obstacles everyday of my life. It seems as if there is so much to do, and not enough time to do it. Have you ever felt like everything that could go wrong does? That was my past week. What I took from my obstacles, is to restore my faith. I understand my purpose in life is helping others. I also know that I can't help others unless I help myself first. It's okay to be giving, it is also okay with being selfish. You will just have to balance the two out.

Here's an article I just wrote... I hope it reaches those that may be interested...

Luv~Ur~City Inc, has been dedicated to helping others since 2009. Over the course of the years, I have been researching and educating myself to share my knowledge with others.

I am always looking for ways to bring the latest and bullet point ways of starting different business. I ran across an idea you may like. There is not enough space here so I will share with you a checklist of starting a Truck Business-Inspired by David Weber-The Food Truck Handbook: Start, Grow, and Succeed in the Mobile Food Business

Of course you will have to pass a course and get the proper license depending on your state. After that, now what do you do. Do you go job searching or you do you step out on faith, and start your own business.

If starting your business shoots to the front of your brain, I say DO IT!!

Here is a little checklist to keep you guided..

1. Create Database-Act your size, It’s ok, to start small (small manufacturers Ma/Pa shops, Independent Business, tour the local industry parks, and
2. Initial Contact-Call or email to market your business-detail your services, inform them of how many trucks, employees you have…. if you don’t now, don’t worry. That’s why this is a checklist. Do not let it overwhelm you, but the checklist helps out as guideline to your business plan.
3. Freight Brokers-Bridges the gap between a carrier and a shipper..
4. Marketing-Follow Up Emails-Call once a week, be consistent-set up appointments /meetings to discuss possible contacts and opportunities-Research what’s needed from ocnsumers-Make sure to market all key points
5. Government Agencies-(think bigger)-Major clients of trucking companies-Needed for dumping services….
6. When in doubt, Moving truck company
7. 7. Network, Market, Flyer, Business Cards, Social Media….

The Diary of My City

WELCOME TO THE TIK TIK ROOM

Writing is Therapeutic (at least it is for me)

Born and raised on the south side of Chicago, in 1974. I was born three days before Thanksgiving. I always considered myself a "gift" to society, because I have always been a giver. I walked on my 1st birthday and attended school from the age of 18 months to 32.

From high school through college, I studied everything from business administration, psychology, starting a business, tax law, and various other subjects that have enabled me to do what I love which is almost everything I set my mind to. One thing about me, I'm going to try it out and if I don't succed-I will write about it. My writing skills is the very reason, that I passed chemistry in college. I follow directions (when I agree with them) but every experiment that was assigned, my results would be way off, but the written report-was always 100%.

Creativity is what I feed off of.

EXAMPLE:

I actually moved during the pandemic. It was June, 2020. I took a few losses in 2019, which resulted to me staying with my mom from January to June. I ended up moving back to my original stomping grounds since I was born.... OVA EAST.. Which is on the south side of Chicago -Remember guys-I work from home so my job did not see any reason why I was not able to work and move at the same time. So I did-I put my laptop in my Coach Handbag, packed the car, made one stop to the storage, went to the apartment, sat on the new, fresh carpet, plugged in the laptop, got to working and got to shopping. My apartment is very small 1 bedroom apartment. The smallest I have ever had, but fell in love with my lakefront view. I think of at least 5 business daily.

Maybe was going through an Arts N Crafts phase-I researched everything needed to start my candle hobby/business-I just keep picturing "My Own Business Space" The image is not as clear as I want it to be, but mark my words, as you experience this journey with me.... I will accomplish everything I manifested.

The candle making actually became very therapeutic for me. It also inspired me to entertain my new love for crafts, to start designing headbands.... keychains and added a few accessories to my "starting line up and rented a store space to sell my items and offer various business services...

My issue is, I am the only person that thinks that I can handle 50 projects at a time, without a consistent team and think everything is going to be perfect... Yeah, yeah... keep it to yourself because I'm not there yet.

Special Thanks to Shettima Webb  Business Owner of M.E Marketplace for givig ne the opportunity to rent a space at your co op space.

I worked in more than 40% of the call centers in Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin, over the past 20 years. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A CAREER IN CLERICAL/CUSTOMER SERVice

• Auto Insurance Representative
• Licensed Health Insurance Agent

The CALL CENTER INDUSTRY IS WHAT LEAD ME TO WHERE I AM TODAY-

A FULLTIME WORK FROM MEDICARE SALES AGENT

I have gained experience and networked with quite a few individuals and organizations.. I have attended business seminars as a hobby, educating myself to assist others. I have conducted a few workshops of my own ranging from small business start ups and one on one business coaching as a result of living/working in a cubicle, studying and researching everything I thought about learning.

THE PANDEMIC WAS THE ULTIMATE GAME CHANGER FOR ME-

I had just became a Licensed Medicare Sales Agent October of 2019. I waited YEARRRSSSS for a company to pay for license which was $249 two day course and a $175 exam. Originally, paid out of pocket because at the time (summer of 2019, while was working as a desk clerk/security guard of facilities that were comparable to adult detention centers. Needless to say, writing and reading comes to me like breathing so I thats what I did. I guess, I forgot about the retention part, because at test time-not only did I rush the online exam from work-I didnt remember anything and failed. Because, God loves me, 2 days later I received a call from one of my previous managers at a health insurance call center I worked for through an employment agency. She called me from getting my resume from Indeed.com. Her exact words... I don't remember you having your initial license, but I remember you being one of my biggest go getters on the phone. I replied.. Well, I'm still a hustler, and now I am licensed.

Because of the love and respect I had for her... I can feel her being proud of the accomplishments through the phone. My original phone interview ended up being my initial hiring process. That was a Wednesday, and I started work in a small and elegant call center on Michigan Avenue in Downtown Chicago the following Monday-Long Story short, they paid for my AHIP ceritification-which opened another vivid door that I was able to gain lots of experiences, skills, and resources.

Tried Selling Lashes-for links and discounts for your own start up program

Lashes and More

The first Monday of March, 2020. I had just came back from a 2 1/2 day weekend because I had just passed my Life Insurance Agent Exam, paid for by my company with Kaplan University.... I was so excited because now I am about to have two lines of insurance to practice on.... Well 2 hours after my start time, they had an emergency meeting announcinc COVID-sent us home and had laptops delivered that following Friday. Because, I am licensed and like doing my own thing.... Long story short, I am at my 5th job, still working from home... still a licensed insurance agent but I dreamed of having multiples streams of income and business all my life so hear I am taking you in and out of my journey willing to share what I have obtained in hopes it inspires you to up it a notch and take whatever dream you have to the next level....
