Landfills, transfer stations, recycling centers, water treatment plants, and other environmental facilities have unique risks and many of these types of organizations have an interesting set of pollution exposures to contend with. Insurance packages to cover potential pollution claims come in a variety of configurations, but all give the benefit of the costs savings associated with shared limits. Many environmental facility clients have been with the same carrier for several years, often as a result of not understanding all of their options, or they may be simply feeling apprehensive about changing their insurance. With new insurance carriers eager to write more of this type of business, the potential uncertainty surrounding existing carriers, and an overall softer market, it is a great time to fully explore the packaged environmental options open to your clients. How does packaged environmental coverage work? •Coverage is based on the Commercial General Liability (CGL) coverage section. •Scheduled Site Specific Pollution Liability is provided via endorsement. •Packages can add extended coverages: transported cargo for Over the Road Pollution (TPL) exposures; Contractors Pollution Liability/Professional Liability (sharing the same limit). This applies if the insured is performing any contracting or consulting work off site for clients; and Non-Owned Disposal Sites. •Coverages are written with combinations of triggers, depending on the options selected. •Various retentions, depending on lines may be chosen. •All coverages share one aggregate. •Separate Business Auto policy for the insured's fleet is also available for both hazardous and non-hazardous hauling exposures. •Separate Follow Form Excess policies may be available. Site Specific Pollution Site Specific Pollution, also known as Premises Pollution, EIL, and PLL, is designed to cover claims arising from pollution releases at, on, or emanating from a specific scheduled location. A "location" can be as broad as an entire piece of property or as narrow as a specified storage tank. Environmental facilities include, but are not limited to, landfills, transfer stations, recyclers, and water/wastewater treatment facilities. A pollutant is any solid, liquid, gaseous, or thermal irritant or contaminant, including smoke, vapor, soot, fumes, acids, alkalis, chemicals, and waste. A pollutant includes dust that can be kicked up by vehicles entering or leaving a landfill. A pollutant can also be wastewater run-off into a nearby stream. Pollutants are not always hazardous in nature but can cause pollution conditions that must be properly cleaned up. Without environmental coverage in place, the insured ends up paying out-of-pocket, since pollution claims are often excluded from the Commercial General Liability form. Purchasing a packaged policy including pollution protects the client and provides much more comprehensive coverage for his or her facility. With multiple carriers willing to consider providing packaged coverage, your insureds now have more choices when it comes to obtaining quotes on their environmental facilities. Packages are becoming a more relevant and inclusive way of being protected in the event of a claim and many companies are finding that this is the most cost and time efficient way to get a complete insurance program

It is a misconception that the only people who have pollution exposures are those involved with hazardous substances. Unfortunately, this is not the case. In truth, anybody who works with, or can be held responsible for, the release of a substance into the environment that meets the definition of a "pollutant" in the ISO exclusion has a pollution exposure. Trade Contractors are in a uniquely challenging position. While their responsibilities are often narrowly defined in the scope of services, they are usually one part of a multi-part process. This means that any claims that arise from a site may be brought against any or all of the contractors who performed operations at the location. And if the claim alleges something that is excluded by the contractor's CGL policy, defense may not be provided. Specific job site exposures that different types of trades have: •Disturbing or exacerbating existing pollutants: Many contractors move earth, excavate, demolish, or otherwise alter existing features of a property. If any of those contain hazardous substances (petroleum contaminated soil, asbestos containing building materials, etc.), the contractor can be held responsible even though he was never advised that he would be. •Contamination caused by materials the contractor brings to the site, such as paints, cleaning solvents, fuels, lubricants, etc. •Contamination caused by operations, such as cutting through a gas line, installing flashing around window incorrectly, installing piping improperly, failing to solder joints, roofing leaks, erosion at site causing offsite contamination, etc. •Contamination for which the contractor is held responsible, such as operations of a subcontractor to the trade contractor and actions of a party delivering materials to the site for the contractor. In addition to job site exposures, Trade Contractors also have exposures at the premises they own. This property, where they store their equipment and supplies, is often the single largest equity investment they have. Pollution at that location could reduce its value tremendously, effectively wiping out the equity built up by the owners. The final exposure area to note is Over the Road Pollution. This is the exposure that vehicles have going from owned premises to job sites. The upset and overturn of a vehicle can cause significant contamination, even if only from small amounts of fuels or solvents they use in their everyday work. Fortunately, there are coverages available to address all of these exposures: Contractors Pollution Liability is designed to protect the Insured for claims stemming from pollution conditions at, on, or emanating from a job site arising where they are performing their operations. Premises Pollution Liability is coverage designed to protect against losses arising from the scheduled premises, which in this case would be the contractor's owned properties. Over The Road Pollution is of course, coverage for pollution events during transit. All of these coverages are accessible for most trade contractors, and they are all affordable. Many can be purchased together in packages, or separately depending on the needs of the particular insured. For the trade contractor faced with many exposures that are effectively out of their control, consideration of this type of coverage is very important. In the current softening market, enhancing a client's coverage can be done for little additional premium and will help secure your relationship going into the future.

Let us assume that you have an internet site that sells products and you receive tons of visitors each day but just a small percent of them purchase something from you. Wouldn't you like that to change? Studies have shown that purchasers will visit more then one site when they are looking for a product, and even if they locate what they are looking for, they wont usually buy it. They will often probably go on to the next site and try to find a better deal, and then never come back. That is one of the reasons you need to get an autoresponder, to ensure that they come back. Autoresponders are programs which can accomplish a lot more than just answering emails. They can help any internet site owner to increase his businesses profitableness just by applying an autoresponder and creativity. Autoresponders have accumulated sales for many thousands of stores that are online. Here are some pointers that you can use to increase yours: You can release a newsletter. Some advanced autoresponders will not just handle all of your subscriptions but they will also follow up with your prospected interests too. The newsletter will keep your visitors in touch with the latest info about you services and goods. As well as a newsletter for your customers, you could also publish a newsletter just for your affiliates telling them about the latest sales and promotions which they can use to increase their sales and commissions. You can write articles about any newsworthy thing like software, music, movies, books, events in your industry, etc., and distribute them through your autoresponder. Circulate articles. Compose targeted articles and then broadcast them to the targeted category of people that are in your autoresponder. This marketing technique is very powerful and can help you build credibility and build up your traffic. Over time, the sales potential will just rocket. Also if your articles are of a good quailty there are a lot of editors that will print a resource box for you. A resource box is basically a short description about your business, products or services where you can put a link for your readers to find their way to your website. Construct mailing lists. After you have picked out the category of people that you'll be targeting, inform them once new articles are written and see if they possibly want to publish them as well. The sales process can be automated. Use an advertisement to increase your message exposure; this will build up the sales too. Use the "ad" to advertise your autoresponder address and when a possible customer uses the address he must receive a message with your marketing materials in it. These marketing materials can be advertisements, descriptions, testimonials, pictures or even reviews and in this way the chance to change a potential customer in a real customer will grow. Circulate advertising. If you have some good visitor traffic it's a good idea to sell advertising. Enable your autoresponder to inform the potential customers about the rates and how to purchase the advertising. Send out courses through email. Use your autoresponder to send each day a course or a lesson but make certain you check the quality is good and keep it professional. If the content is good it will add to the sales alone. Write about various topics and in the same time advertise your products using tips which will show your products advantages. At the end write a couple of paragraphs about your product, its cost and ask your prospect to consider purchasing it. Although there are lots of ways to increase sales, build your business and create credibility, these are just a few ways an autoresponder can help build your online business. With a little learning and executing you could be well on your way to success in no time at all.

It is true there are many ways to make money online, and lots of money to be made. Almost 90% of new millionaires today have made their millions using the internet. There is so much information to access today on the internet with the click of a mouse. Products can be purchased across the globe in seconds. And there are so many tools out there to help people create successful internet businesses. With all these possibilities there should be so many more making millions. However there are a few simple steps that you should consider before getting started. Step 1. Be prepared - Most people jump into internet marketing without being prepared and they usually have a rough start. There is money to be made but it does require some preparation. Many internet millionaires out there have made their money and continue to make money by teaching others to do the same. So research them and do what they have done. They all started where you are now. Google is an extremely powerful tool to find information on the internet. So use it and see, how many of these men and women before you have done it! Individuals like Dr. Joe Vitale, Bob Bly, Steven Scott, James Sheridan and so many others. Start with these and you will be amazed how many others you can learn from. Step 2. Find What You Love - You can find anything to sell and make money on the internet, but if you are going to make a career of this, why not find something you love that you can be passionate about. There are so many products out there to sell. Find one you love. Make it a fun experience. What are your hobbies? What are you good at? What are your strengths? What is your field of expertise? What do you like to do? Seems to simple, but it is that simple. Ask yourself these questions and then use Google and see what's out there for you to sell as an affiliate. Almost any good internet product out there has an affiliate program. Check the bottom of a web page and look for an affiliate link, and start learning how to promote that product. Step 3. Persistence - Some people might be an instant success at internet marketing, and for some it may take some time. It didn't happen overnight for me. I believe the biggest key in this business or any business is to keep trying and be creative for longer than the other key and you will come out on top every time. Persistence does not mean doing the same thing over and over again until it finally works, because the reality is if you keep doing the same thing you will probably keep getting the same results (and go insane). Persistence means to stick with it, be creative and keep trying new ideas until you find something that gets results and works for you. If Ad words doesn't work, try something else. If your website doesn't get any traffic, try something else. Whatever you do, don't give up until you find something that works for you. 100% of the people, who give up in this business, never make it.
