Why Choose Certified Organic Skincare?

Who in the world would knowingly apply products to their skin that contained toxic chemicals which were known to have harmful effects?

If you knew that something could cause skin or breast cancer, affect your reproductive system and therefore your fertility, cause skin problems, headaches, fatigue and a whole host of other problems would you put it onto your skin?

Black-Owned Banks Address Inequities in Black Banking

You may be a black American who does not bank, having been turned down for a checking account when you tried to get one. Or you may have a checking account but have had problems getting loans.

You may not be aware of the existence of black-owned banks. Here, you will learn about the unbanked and underbanked, benefits of banking, and black-owned banks such as the one owned by Kevin Cohee.

Private equity is a heavily-regulated sector with many rules, regulations, and laws to follow.

The Benefits of Online Educational Programs

WOULD YOU CONSIDER AN ONLINE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM?

With the current challenges facing traditional colleges and universities, which includes higher tuition, budget cuts, and course shortages, many students as well as those that love learning have switched to online educational programs. With nearly three million students currently enrolled in fully online degree programs and eight million taking at least one online course as part of their degree program, online education has clearly become one of the most popular higher education alternatives.

The continually improving reputation of online learning has also helped fuel its expansion, as initial skepticism has faltered in the face of evidence that shows that online learning can be just as effective as face-to-face education.

Three Ways to Design a Successful Plastic Coupon Card

Coupons have been around for a hundred years. They were first widely used in the early 1900s when shoppers would use scissors to cut out coupons from newspaper ads and then redeem them at grocery stores for a discount on a purchase. The coupon’s function has changed over the past century from being a way to get discounts when buying goods to becoming an advertisement tool when given away free with products. There has even been a surge in coupon card usage in recent years, whose advantages include carrying multiple cards in one compact package and having no need for paper or ink. These benefits make plastic cards easier to transport and more environmentally friendly than traditional paper coupons. What is the right design? There are three major elements:
