iMapp : a process automation system for insurance brokers and agents
Tell us a few words about the founders and how the idea came
Nigeria has one of the lowest insurance penetration figures in the world and in the Sub Saharan Africa with 0.3% as compared to other countries like South Africa – 16.99%, Namibia – 6.69%, Zimbabwe – 4.09%…
A comparative study on Nigeria and other major developing countries shows that an average Nigerian spends 1.3% of its expendable income on insurance as against 23% South Africa, 3.6% Argentina, 4.6% Brazil, 7.7% Chile, 3.5% Mexico, 3.5% China. With the current Insurance Market size in Nigeria is around USD$780million. If properly harnessed, the insurance industry has very strong potential to open up a USD$10billion market size if the top 20% Nigerians can be made to spend as little as 7.6% of their income on insurance.
How better way to get them to spend it than to address the reasons they are not?
After an extensive research carried out on the insurance brokers and insurance companies in Nigeria to identify the reasons for the low penetration level of insurance in Nigeria, the reasons mostly ranging from the population's apathy to Insurance due to cultural constraints; low insurance literacy; inappropriate pricing and profiling of risk; and the poor distribution channels to market insurance.
Our business idea is borne out of the desire to address some of these challenges and open up the Nigerian insurance industry into retail and the microinsurance markets, where hitherto had been ignored for decades.
Ajayi Oluwaseun is a software developer with over 7 years of enterprise software development experience. Olayide Ilori is with 6 years experience in insurance marketing and Bancassurance with two top Nigerian insurance companies. Ajayi Stella is a project manager with over 4 years of project management experience working as project manager with consulting firms to multinational companies Shell and Chevron.

Morpheus, The Italian Electric Hyper-Car That Can Change The World
Tell us a few words about the founders and how the idea came
Morpheus all begins with one single idea, to create a new type of high-performance vehicle with an electric soul that can make the world dream. In April 2017 Morpheus begins, Riccardo Clemente gathers a group of brave individuals and with high difficulties, the startup business idea develops until a series of events interrupts this story, but not for long.
Once back in university at IED Torino Riccardo Clemente speaks with some students in his university about designing the vehicle he and his previous team envisioned back in 2017. Incredibly the group of students is able to envision and represent what would become the first concept of a Morpheus electric hypercar, the Cigno Nero. A call by a friend Luca Pinoli in May 2019 gets the business idea back on track and the start-up is reborn.
In 2020 the start-up becomes a company Morpheus S.r.l and with the encounter of various partners and investors, things begin to shake. As all the parts of the puzzle come together Morpheus vision focuses and the future looks surprising. Will it be only electric hypercars or more?

Solar-E-Cycle : solar powered light electric vehicles disrupting the automobile industry in Africa
Solar E-Cycles was created in Kenya in 2015 to develop solar-powered light electric vehicles with grant funding from Energy Environment Partnership (www.EEPAfrica.com). Solar E-Cycles Kenya Ltd has commenced production of some 130 vehicles for a full-scale pilot trial aimed at proving out the product and business model.
Problems worth solving in Africa
- Some 100 million families live in off-grid rural areas without affordable mobility;
- 40 billion hours are spent hauling water in sub-Saharan Africa and 71% of that is by women and girls;
- The latter deprived of the opportunity to attend school;
- 622 million people are without access to electricity;
- Half of the population earns less than $2.00 a day;
- The population will grow by almost 4 bn people by 2099 creating a massive production of greenhouse gas from internal combustion engine vehicles and for power generation. In turn, increasing CO2 emissions with the consequence of global warming.
Existing solutions
- Solar-powered vehicles exist. Engineering schools compete every year. But these versions remain expensive and not practical. One driver, no baggage.
- Improving pricing and performance. Pricing of components for solar powered lightweight electric vehicles (PV panel, batteries and e-bike parts) will continue to decline whereas performance will continue to improve;
- 10 prototypes built to date. We have proven that it is possible to build a practical solar-powered light electric vehicle for less than 1000 USD with a range of 50km per day at 30kph. It has a minimum life cycle of 10 years. It is built from existing off-the-shelve components;
- Solar Home Systems are widely popular. Light solar electric vehicles with excess electricity in their storage batteries can supply basic power needs for the home or business for off-grid rural populations in developing countries. Entry level needs 250Wh per day v/s a minimum daily generation and storage capacity of the vehicle starting at 1500Wh per day in normal sun conditions provides a reasonable supply of electricity for home or business;
- Pay-as-you-go business models, used for cell phone service and now in solar home systems (growing at 100% per year to a $12 bn market size in 2030 per IFC/World Bank), have removed the up-front payment barrier in developing countries and, with GPS technology, make leasing of the solar electric vehicle to low earners, a business with manageable risks.
Proposed Technical Solution
- Our solution is based on three innovations: product, service and financing. It is a totally disruptive alternative to the internal combustion engine (ICE) automobile industry.
- Off-grid power and mobility. We offer a light electric solar powered 2, 3 or 4 wheels transportation device with a range of 50-100km per day with only power from the sun at speeds from 25 – 45 kph. We are the world's first mass-produced solar vehicle company.
- Free power from the sun. Higher reliability and easier maintenance than ICE powered vehicles, and safer. As an electric vehicle, it can also be recharged from the network. Built on an electric mountain bicycle platform, it has pedals for emergencies.
- Home solar system. Excess energy stored in batteries that can be used to power the home (at night) or the small business. 1500 to 6000 Wh per day depending on battery configurations.
- Affordable. A pay-as-you-go (PAYGo) business model at rates as low as $0,50 a day/5 year lease. Technology in GPS and GSM allows us to control the vehicle remotely in a leasing environment with geo-fencing. Affordable transportation and power at rental rates compatible with revenues of $2 a day.
- Killer application. Our Solar-E-Cycle hybrid solar powered mobility and power generation solution provides users with revenue generation opportunities in the sale of power and transportation services that can cover the cost of the vehicle making the leasing of the vehicle a financially viable self-sustaining operation for anyone.
Our business model
Our business model encompasses the open source approach, performance monitoring, PAYGo and rapid scaling to attract impact investors. We put social objectives at the forefront of our business strategy by integrating social goals into our business. Besides clearly targeting social objectives, this strategy can also lead to greater profits and reduced risks. Investors today have a clear desire to earn a good return while achieving social impact.
Open source: vehicle designs available to be copied (and improved) off the internet – small welding shops can build it. Suppliers of components like motors, batteries and PV panels or the electronic power management, data collection and transmission system will find specs for adapting their products to our vehicle. Software for fleet and power management on the vehicle will also be open source continually improved.
PAYGo proposal: for a small deposit (10,000KES = $100), 1/10th the price of a motorcycle in Kenya, the user will be lent a Solar-E-Cycle. He will then pay a monthly rate of some 5,000KES = $50. Through mobile payments (M'Pesa). He owns the vehicle in 3 years. If he does not pay the vehicle can be immobilized remotely. Customers will be selected using Microfinance approaches such as social contracting to minimize defaults.
Analytics: All vehicle data (load, power consumption, speed, location, distance travelled, voltage, temperature, even driver behaviour) is uploaded to generate better knowledge of users over the internet of things.
The IKEA of the automotive industry: Customers will be able to receive a dismantled vehicle in a box, with the tools needed and assemble it themselves with help from videos on the dashboard display, CD and YouTube.
Rapid scaling: We will create business units receiving some 100-200 boxes to start a distribution centre in a 40ft container anywhere in Africa. Some 15,000 business units to cover Africa. 2 people will start this business unit, a commercial and a maintenance agent to start. (Change out maintenance recovers damaged parts for rehabilitation or recycling (e.g. batteries) in a circular economy). Each business unit is monitored via the internet for vehicle availability, collection rates, defaults, profitability. Empowering People through solar powered light electric vehicles offering mobility and electricity in an open-source pay-as-you-go business model
Roger Christen is an international development consultant with 46 years of professional experience.
He graduated from POLYTECHNIQUE Montreal Canada with an industrial engineering diploma and went on after that to get an MBA from MCGILL University. He is currently in the PhD program in Morocco.
He started his career in the mining and shared health services and then became a Consultant with Price Waterhouse
Management consulting led to INTERIM MANAGEMENT where he ran a large strategic chemical company in Canada from 1980 to 1989. Then he came to Africa with a team of 8 Canadians to transition the railway company in Gabon from construction to commercial phase. He ran the Power Utility in Guinea for 2 years that led to some 30 missions in power sector reform and a long-term association with the World Bank. From State Owned Enterprise reform he moved on to Growth Poles where his team won the WOLRD BANK EXCELLENCE AWARD FOR AFRICA in 2007.
He has lived in Africa on a permanent basis in 5 countries for some 15 years, working in French, English and Arabic areas of Africa.
The idea came to him 30 years ago while visiting a village in northern Cameroun. Half the population of the village had one task – fetch water every day. Women and boys and girls with the impact of not being able to attend school. It took 30 years for prices of PV and e-bike components to drop to a level where a solar-powered light electric vehicle for less than $1000 was feasible.

How to install docker in ubuntu 18.04 : Easy method!
Are you looking for how to install docker in Ubuntu 18.04? Here's how we do it.
Docker is an application that simplifies the process of managing application processes in containers.
At Bobcares, we often get requests from our customers to install docker in Ubuntu as part of our Server Management Services.
Today, let's get into the details on how our Support Engineers install and fix related errors.
How we install docker in Ubuntu?
Frequently many customers approach us for installing docker in Ubuntu. Our Support engineers help the customers in installing it and fix any related errors.
Now, let's see how our Support Engineers install the docker in Ubuntu.
Using Default Repositories
Initially, we updated software repositories by running the following command in the terminal.
sudo apt-get update
After that, we uninstalled any old Docker software before proceeding via the below command.
sudo apt-get remove docker docker-engine docker.io
Thereafter, we installed Docker on Ubuntu by running the command in the terminal.
sudo apt install docker.io
Then we started and enabled the docker service.
sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker
Finally, we verified the installed Docker version number.
docker --version
Install Docker from Official Repository
Another alternate method in which we install the docker is as following
After updating the local database using the following command,
sudo apt-get update
We then download Dependencies.
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common
Here the dependencies are :
- apt-transport-https: Allow package manager to transfer files and data over https.
- ca-certificates: Allows to check security certificates.
- curl: tool for transferring data.
- software-properties-common: Adds necessary scripts for managing software.
Thereafter Add Docker's GPG Key. GPG key is a security feature.
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add –
Then, installed the Docker repository via the following command.
sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
We then Updated the repositories that we just added.
sudo apt-get update
To install the latest version of docker:
sudo apt-get install docker-ce
For installing a particular version, add the version in place of the following command.
sudo apt-get install docker-ce=<VERSION>
Thus, we easily installed the docker.
Related error while installing
At Bobcares, where we have more than a decade of expertise in managing servers, we see many customers face problems while installing docker.
Now, let's see how our Support Engineers fix the problems while installing docker.
Recently one of the customers approached us with the following error occurred while installing docker.
On further investigation, we could trace the issue was due to unavailability of curl, tool for transferring data. We then installed the dependency and fixed the problem.
For instance, we can refer to the following.
The error got fixed and we then proceed with installation.
[Need any assistance for installing docker in Ubuntu? – We'll help you]
In short, installing docker in Ubuntu is an easy task. Today, we saw how our Support Engineers fixed the related errors.
Are you using Docker based apps?
There are proven ways to get even more out of your Docker containers! Let us help you.
Spend your time in growing business and we will take care of Docker Infrastructure for you.

victoriac's Reviews
I had the opportunity to participate in the ayahuasca ceremony of Pisatahua in the month of August and I do not regret it. There is a whole mental and physical preparation that makes you mentalize yourself for the retreat and I thank all those who were in charge a lot because they always resolved all the doubts and everything became easier, so that we could carry out that search and internal change that We search independently.
Wara, the shaman who came this time to guide us during the retreat, is magical. She is the guide that supports you throughout the process, both in ceremonies and every day in talks, meditations, advice … she and the group made my search and internal cleansing successful, or at least beyond I expected to get. It is clear that one cannot go with expectations, especially if it is the first time, as in my case; but also one must be prepared to open up to what ayahuasca has to tell you.
For me it was a complete, magical and very revealing experience. It was beautiful, and I don't think I'm exaggerating, at least in my case. I enjoyed it, learned and suffered. It was all part of the process.
I feel very grateful to the organizers, the beautiful retreat group and Wara, who conveys peace, security and love wherever I go. Because he always cares about each one personally, feels the energies and knows how to guide.
In addition, a special thanks to Sara, who helped Wara during the retreat, leading meditation sessions, yoga and also supporting the shaman in the ceremony, and was a great support during my difficult times and I know she is always willing to help in the purest way.
I would do it again, because it heals, because the location is perfect and because we always have to keep learning.

As noted in the Network camera basic model Huawei P30 is significantly different from that which will be equipped with the smartphone Huawei P30 Pro. Smart phones today are incredibly popular, so the top mobile devices of new generation, which will see the light, is now one of the most interesting technological fact, as this is where the flagships of the most pronounced ability of the vendor to create an innovative device. Then top technologies gradually find their application in smart phones of the middle class and even the budget.
Previously, users have had to hear that the new Huawei P30 Pro on the rear panel will have four cameras, highlights, viewing a new message, Vlad (Vlad) on the resource page gsmarena.com. Details of the main camera base model flagship allegedly became known thanks to the new message famous Lister Blass Evan (Evan Blass) in his account @evleaks on Twitter.
The main camera Huawei P30 — triple, with a 40-megapixel sensor and a 5x zoom
The Huawei P30 promises to be another imaging powerhouse, according to someone who's seen one: triple rear camera with a maximum resolution of 40MP and 5x lossless zoom, plus a 24MP selfie cam. And this isnt even the Pro variant.
— Evan Blass (@evleaks) December 21, 2018
On the rear panel of the Huawei P30 will be three cameras, one of which is a 40 megapixel. A telephone will be provided by five-times zoom without loss. The front panel will complement the 24-megapixel selfie camera.
Camera basic model will probably be similar to that found application in a Mate 20 Pro. Chipset the new smartphone will be a great Kirin 980. It is possible that soon the web will be the new posts, which will add the details on the differences between the base model Huawei Huawei P30 and P30 Pro. The design and specification of P30 version Pro previously was examined in more detail.
To discuss the upcoming smartphones to release a flagship line of Huawei P30 readers can Telegram chat.

This will be good news.
It was 1997. I was a judge at the wonderful, erstwhile US Real Ale Festival. Ray Daniels was giving us our pre-festival instructions. He passed out pencils with which to take notes. On each were the words "Ray Daniels for ..." some sort of political office.
Ray would leave the politics to John Hickenlooper (brewpub owner, now mayor of Denver) and others. Instead, he would concentrate on fomenting (and fermenting) good beer. It was a decision that would be fortuitous for the rest of us.
Among his many accomplishments, Ray Daniels is the author of Designing Great Beers, the past director of the Brewers Association Craft Beer Marketing Program, and the creator and director of the beer sommelier school- Cicerone Certification Program.
In August, Ray underwent open-heart surgery.
He is recovering well and reports that his doctors have okayed him to drink beer, although at present his limit is one per day.
"Funny how good they taste," he says.

Nano Challa cooperative was established in 2004 by an initial 25 farmer members from the Agaro town in the Jimma Zone, Oromia, Western Ethiopia. The founder members formed the group in order to foster unity and to share in addressing issues they were facing around finding good buyers for their coffee, eleviating debt and improving standards of production. Jimma is an area that had become synonymous with 'Jimma 5' - low quality natural processed commercial type coffee that fetches minimal prices on the internal and international market. The name Nano Challa in Oromifa means "the area above", a reference to their prime coffee growing location at high altitudes, benefitting from beautiful natural forest and rich organic soils.
Nano Challa's fortunes were boosted in 2010, when they were chosen to be part of the Technoserve Coffee Initiative alongside other remote farming communities in Jimma, which was funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Technoserve provided technical assistance and training to producer groups, and helps coordinate agronomists and business advisors to help improve coffee quality, assist in the management of debt, reinvestment and the fair distribution of funds to each coop member. The impact of the initiative was huge, as it helped coops like Nano Challa transition from natural processing to washed, via the building of washing stations. In fact, Nano Challa was one of the first washing stations to be built in the area under the guidance of Technoserve, along with Yukro and Duromina.
Farmer members cultivate coffees at altitudes between 1850 and 2100 metres, and have around 3 hectares of land each, on average. As is the case across Ethiopia, most of the coffees grown locally are organic by default, and consist mostly of old, naturally indigenous heirloom varieties, punctuated by smaller areas of an improved native varietal called 1274. Once producers deliver coffee to the washing station, cherries are floated before being depulped using a Penagos Eco Pulper. The coffee is then soaked in clean water in concrete tanks for 8 hours before drying; firstly skin-dried and sorted under shade, before being sun dried for approximately 10 days on raised African drying beds.

Paul's Pantry Donation
The BCHBA gave back to the community at the 2019 Home Expo by offering free admission to the event with a donation to Paul's Pantry.
Over 6 barrels of food were collected for Paul's Pantry at the 2019 Home Expo. Be sure to join us at the 2020 Home Expo - January 23 - 26, 2020 located at the KI Convention Center. For more info on The Home Expo, click here.
Paul's Pantry has distributed over 76.4 million pounds of food to the needy of Brown County since 1984. Paul's Pantry was one of the first food pantries to seek available surplus food from the marketplace each year.
October Madness
The 2017 October Madness Auction was enjoyed by all and was a huge success! We raised nearly $10,000 to support Connect, Inc., Altrusa House of Green Bay and the Service League of Green Bay/Family Services Transitional Living Program.
Porch Build
In May of 2015, the BCHBA coordinated an effort to build a new porch for a family in need. Association members donated time and materials to the project. J&J Builders of Northeast Wisconsin donated the time and crew to build the porch, Drexel Building Supply donated the materials, and AdvancedDisposal provided the dumpster. The end result was a beautiful addition to their home and a happy little boy who now has a safe porch to play on.
Career Day
BCHBA Staff were on site at Howe Elementary School for their Career Day on Friday, February 27, 2015.
Executive Officer, Mari McAllister-Charles and Membership/Showcase Coordinator Melissa Steffen talked to the fifth grade classes about careers in the building industry.
Six mini-sessions were held and students learned about different career paths as well as participating in a hands-on building project courtesy of Home Depot.
The BCHBA has made it an initiative to ensure that students of all ages are aware of the different opportunities for skilled laborers in the industry.
NeighborWorks Green Bay
The Brown County Home Builders Association, along with other community supporters, has partnered with neighborWorks® Green Bay on their latest renovation project. The premise of the partnership is to use high school students to complete the renovation.
The latest project was a two-flat home that will provide safe, affordable housing for two families of modest means. An open house was held to tour the homes located at 301 and 303 S. Oakland Street.
Each day, students from West High School gathered at the property to learn skills such as carpentry, framing, siding, etc. The students learned valuable lessons and skills about the building trades and will receive college credit at NWTC.
This will be the first of many projects that the BCHBA will partner on!
Mari McAllister-Charles Named "20 Women to Know"
Congratulations to Executive Officer, Mari McAllister-Charles, who was named as one of You Magazine's "20 Women to Know." The 20 Women to Know issue is an annual publication of You Magazine. It honors influential women who are inspiring conversations, shaping their organizations and changing the way we do business in the community.
UW Green Bay Collegiate Chapter of Habitat for Humanity
The Brown County Home Builders Association recently donated funds to allow the UW Green Bay Collegiate Chapter of Habitat for Humanity to take a mission trip to the Philippines. Here is a note of thanks from their team for helping to make the amazing experience a possibility:
We are back from our Habitat for Humanity Global Village trip to the Philippines. It was absolutely the experience of a lifetime. Words fail us. Suffice it to say that, for us, the housing communities where we worked showed us poverty on a scope and scale unimaginable here. The need for safe, durable, affordable housing in this country is profound, with a backlog of nearly four million people living in urban slums. But, unexpectedly, the communities we served were unusually vibrant - there were small micro-economies within the slums with businesses and services - and the people were kind, grateful and generous. I have traveled some myself, and I believe that the Filipino people are among the nicest, most polite, happiest people I have ever met.
The work we did was hard and manual. The tools on hand were buckets, shovels, pick axes to break rock, hacksaws to cut re-bar, etc. Everything we did in a week (mostly digging holes in soil and rock, mixing concrete, and setting foundation footings and building support columns) would have been done in a half day here with a back hoe and a jackhammer. It took 26 of us a full week to do it by hand (11 of us from the US, joined by 15 college students from Japan). But we did not go there to judge, just to contribute our labor and immerse ourselves in this culture and community, and that we did.
There is no way that ten college kids from Wisconsin can have an experience like this and not have their world view permanently altered. The same is true for me. We return home humbled, and deeply moved by our experience.
We can't thank you enough for your generous donation to our trip. With much gratitude for helping to make this possible, Mike Stearney and the team.
American Red Cross
The BCHBA coordinated a blood drive with the American Red Cross on Saturday, January 18, 2014. This was our fourth year that we teamed up with the American Red Cross. A total of 17 pints were collected from helping save 51 lives.
In order to help families everyday, the Lakeland Chapter relies on volunteers and the generosity of our community for donations to support their programs and services. Your local Lakeland Chapter works tirelessly to ensure that help is there.


text: The new name of a new species can not be copyright in as much as that name is a potential subject for changes like transfer to another genus, synonimy, etc. To extended the concept of copyright to names would be to nullify the dispositions of the ICBN. Copyright of the species itself, in the sense of species as a biological organism (to which a name is attached for our convenience) is not possible in as much as what you mean by copyright in this case is to saveguard the intellectual property of that name and organism. Once you publish a new name your authorship is protected in a way and only by faulty taxonomy could someone duplicate the name under her/his authority (outside those provision in the Code that allow for such things and are indicated as apud, in, etc.). One can in certain cases obtain a patent for the organism. In horticulture, for example, cultivars can be patented through Switzerland. In Costa Rica, on the other hand, all organisms have been declared the patrimony of the State. One can describe species as usual but the subject of that description is not ones property. The subject of intellectual property and intellectual freedom is one of great interest that should be the concern of the subscribers of Taxacom list, as well as other scientists.

FINANCE: The south west London PCT NHS Kingston has reported it "is still able to deliver its target surplus of £3.9m, however, in order for this to be achieved both the transition fund and 0.5 per cent contingency reserve have been utilised in its entirety".
A board report said this was necessary to "offset increased acute over-performance".
It said this comprised £2.5m with Kingston Hospital. £1.9m with St George's and £1.3m with various foundation trusts.
It is predicting a total acute overspend of £4.8m after challenging some of the spend "however this [total] assumes a reduction in the monthly levels of over performance due to the completion of 18 week activity at the beginning of the year."

Sonny (Kitten) has been Adopted

Colour: Classic Brown Tabby
Eyes: Gold

A pretty calico named Serena came into Pet Patrol care with her five little kittens, all about seven weeks old. They were found on a property near a famous tourist attraction, but this was not a safe place for her to be. In fact it could have proved to be quite deadly. A friend of one of our volunteers knew the man who owned the property and he had stated to her earlier in the summer that any animal that came onto his property would be shot. He has no use for any feline or wild life trespassers. When he told her about this mother cat and her five adorable kittens (Sadie being one of them) she said he is not to touch them, or go near them, or threaten them. He said "sure you can have these ones". She immediately drove out to his place and picked them up and then had a stern talk with him. After this experience she will be keeping a very close eye on him and will strongly discourage such behavior. Serena has been very grateful to be brought into safety where her kittens are well looked after and she has plenty of food and a nice safe environment.
Sonny is the biggest of the bunch. He must have been the litter protector because when they first arrived at their foster home he would hiss when anyone came near the siblings. Within a day or two he came around and now he is one of the biggest cuddlers of the litter. He loves to nestle around your neck, tuck himself in and purr away until he falls asleep. He is playful and active with his siblings. Sonny is ready to be adopted into his forever home with a playmate. One that will welcome him into the family and keep him safely indoors.

Building Your Brand as a Property Agent
Experience has shown that healthy competition brings out the best in people. To stand out, rather than be a generalist, you must aspire to carve a niche for yourself. Every agent wants to get a substantial fair share of the market and to do this, certain factors have to come to play.
- Get yourself befitting business cards, designed by a great designer & printed on high-quality materials. This sort of card commands respect and forms a positive impression about you in the mind of the receiver.
- A good website and domain name: In this 21st-century business world, visibility and accessibility are crucial to your brand as a realtor. And your website is at the centre of this. But before you set out crafting an effective website which would be loved by Google & users alike, the first thing you need to do is get a domain name which reflects your brand. So, say your agency is called Blue Ocean Real Estate located in Lekki, rather than go with something like bestrealestateagenyinlekki.com, why not go with blueoceanrealty.com?
- Invest in yourself: A smart agent must look smart at all times and be knowledgeable about the business of marketing and selling of properties. He should have a good command of English and be very familiar with the environment. He should also possess an up-to-date market analysis of real estate trends and dynamics.
- Have a lead magnet on your website: No matter how attractive your website is, it may not be of any help when prospects visit without contacting you. In such circumstances, you lose potential clients. To avoid this, it is advisable to create a lead magnet on your site. A lead magnet is a piece of information or content, attractive to your target audience, which you give out in exchange for their email addresses.
- Find your niche market: There is a common saying that 'a jack of all trade is a master of none'. Yes, a good professional agent should have a speciality. You don't have to do it all. You may be good as a commercial agency, or for the first time home buyers or you may specialize in a particular neighbourhood or location. Whatever it is, decide and give it your best.
- Availability and accessibility: A good agent that aspires to stand out must be available at all times. To do this effectively, endeavour to at least get a smartphone with internet subscription running 24/7.
- Make an extra effort: For an agent to be getting referral he must go the extra mile to achieving certain things. Referral is a vital aspect of estate agency. For instance, virtually all our prospects at Luxury Villas Group come from referral. This only happens when clients are impressed with your work. Make a habit of reaching out to every client that does business with you. Gifts are always welcome, and it keeps you in their hearts always.
- Adopt a marketing style that makes a good impression: The impression you make when you meet people in the course of your work goes a long way in selling yourself and your business. Your business card, clothes, car, all contribute to the kind of impression you create. Don't get me wrong, you don't need to spend a fortune buying the latest Mercedes Benz, all you need to do is ensure the one you have is clean and neat. This also goes for your ads. When advertising in a print medium, avoid clustered and disjointed prints that make your listings unattractive and readable. Instead, it is advisable to take a space you can afford and match your listings with images.
- Accessible and decent Office: I deliberately chose this as the last step in this topic of "How to Stand Out as a Real Estate Agent". It is deliberate because not every agent has the initial resources to get an office when starting out. However, a good and functional office is key to your success. In most climes, an estate agent worth his salt sites his office in posh streets directly on the road and visible to passing eyes. Such offices are well laid out and very clean. The office must be manned with the right professionals, from customer services to professional consultants, who must all be resourceful. Another good feature of such office is a well-displayed image of your listings and their details (This is very, very uncommon here in our country).

Microsoft engineer adapts fan-tracking app for COVID-19 ...

When Alison, 51, started dating Phil Swindin, 46, in 2014, she had no idea he had multiple sclerosis.
A devoted wife whose husband advised her to "walk away" on their sixth date because of his MS, is now desperately trying to raise £45k for treatment they hope will change his life – six years after they met.
When mum-of-two Alison Swindin, 51, started dating IT consultant Phil Swindin, 46, in 2014, she had no idea he had multiple sclerosis (MS) – a lifelong condition that can affect the brain and spinal cord, sometimes causing serious disability.
Revealing his diagnosis six dates in, Alison, of Pontefract, West Yorkshire, recalled the dad-of-three advising her to end their romance, saying: "It was all very serious and, in his head, I think he believed he was doing the right thing – the noble thing."
She added: "But, of course, by that point I was head over heels and walking away was the last thing I was about to do."
And, as their love deepened, far from ending things, Phil – who has a daughter, Laura, 22, a biochemistry student, as well as two young sons, Joshua, nine, and Jacob, seven – broke his vow "never to get married again" and tied the knot with Alison in June 2018.
Sadly, not long after the wedding, his condition started to deteriorate, leading Alison – mum to Emma Turner, 25, an insurance administrator, and Laura Turner, 21, a midwifery student – to launch a GoFundMe page to help raise £45k for him to have potentially life-changing stem cell treatment in Mexico.
"We've spoken to people across the globe who have had this treatment and they've gone from barely being able to sit up to being able to walk two miles," she said.
"The donations have been coming in at an unbelievable rate and I really do think that's down to the video of the kids we shared on the GoFundMe page.
"It's impossible not to be moved by how much they want to see their daddy on the mend."
Alison met Phil in early 2014 when she began online dating, following the breakdown of her 22-year marriage.
"My divorce had come through nine months earlier and I didn't know where to start in terms of finding romance," she recalled.
"I didn't really fancy going to pubs and bars in the hope of finding a potential catch so, after having a laugh with some friends, I decided to sign up to online dating instead."
Admitting she met a "few duds" in her quest to find true love, Alison recalled being instantly impressed with Phil's profile.
"I remember his profile quite clearly," she said. "There was a photo of Phil skydiving, one of him in a Hawaiian shirt and another of him and the kids.
"I thought he seemed like a friendly, outgoing family man."
A few weeks and several phone calls later, Alison and Phil finally enjoyed their first date at a local gastropub.
"It was a really good first date," she said. "We got on really well. He was very chatty and the conversation flowed well – leaving me with a good feeling, all in all.
"Phil did ask if he could give me a kiss when we parted ways and I didn't object."
Describing the relationship as moving "relatively slowly," by the time the pair were on their sixth date, two months later, Phil told Alison he had something important to share with her.
Then he revealed how, in early 2004, after suffering with pins and needles in his left hand for over a week, he visited his GP, where he was referred to Sheffield's Thornbury Hospital for further tests.
There, doctors performed a lumbar puncture – removing fluid from the spinal cord – and an MRI scan, leading to his MS diagnosis a week later.
At the time, Phil said he "didn't think anything of it" as, apart from feeling constant fatigue, until just before he met Alison, he had experienced few symptoms.
"At the end of the date he told me, quite matter of factly, that I should go home and Google the condition before making a decision about whether I wanted to move forwards," she explained.
"I was quite shocked. I hadn't for a second thought he had anything wrong with him, but Phil explained it was an invisible disability – or at least it had been at the time."
"By that point I already felt attached to him and it was too late to throw me off," she continued.
"I did start to see signs after that. At a busy bar he couldn't stand around and wait to order drinks, as it took it out of him and now, if it's particularly hot, his fatigue kicks in faster and we can't leave the house.
"But we work around it, especially if we're having a date night, by ordering a takeaway and shoving on a good film."
Despite him revealing his MS soon after they met, the couple went from strength to strength and in November 2017 Phil popped the question and Alison accepted.
"Phil always said he'd never get married again," she said. "So I was absolutely gobsmacked when he asked me over dinner at a Chinese restaurant.
"I actually thought he was joking at first. I told him not to worry, he could leave it."
"When I realised he was being serious I quickly said yes!" she added.
Married in a full-length, white bridal gown in a small register office ceremony on June 30, 2018, followed by a knees-up at a local country pub, soon after Phil's health started to fail.
"Suddenly, Phil couldn't walk more than one metre without assistance because his balance had become so badly affected," Alison recalled.
"He couldn't go out shopping, he couldn't even take the dustbin out. He went from being able to walk quite well, albeit not for too long or in the heat, to only being able to shuffle across tiny distances," she continued.
For the first time since his diagnosis, he was given disease modifying drugs (DMDs) to be taken daily, to reduce the inflammation of nerve cells caused by MS and to ease his symptoms.
Then, in March 2019, to improve Phil's quality of life, the couple downsized from the three-storey house they loved to a more practical bungalow.
"It wasn't an easy decision, as it was a beautiful house with a lot of fond memories – especially for Phil – but we did what we needed to do," said Alison.
Concerned by her husband's health, she started searching online for alternative treatments, as well as joining an MS group on Facebook, where she learned about the potential benefits of stem cell therapy.
"I eventually connected with a lady who had raised the funds she needed for it through donations," she said. "She told me about her treatment at the Clinica Ruiz in Puebla, Mexico."
"It was finally something to aim for – a goal," she added.
After researching the clinic, Phil was told he was eligible for the treatment, but it would come with a massive $54,500 (£42,000) price tag.
While the procedure was recently made available on the NHS, after a series of clinical trials, the number of people who are accepted for it is extremely small, according to the charity MS Trust.
"We tried to get the procedure done on the NHS, but sadly Phil didn't meet their strict criteria. It was hard, but it's relatively new on the scene and we understand the way things work," said Alison.
Known as autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT), the procedure involves harvesting stem cells from the blood, which are then injected back into the bone marrow. The aim, according to the NHS, is to 'reset' the immune system to stop it from attacking the body.
"The clinic have told us that 85 per cent of patients see an improvement after the treatment, but MS is a 'snowflake' condition, meaning every case is different," Alison explained.
"It would be great if it helped with the cognitive side of things, to push back Phil's brain fog, or if it helped with his balance, so he could walk properly again," she continued.
"We've spoken to people from the online community who are walking two miles after the treatment, but even if Phil could just climb a ladder we'd be happy."
Setting up a GoFundMe page in November last year, the couple have already raised over £30,000 in donations, which Alison believes is down to a moving video featuring Phil's children.
She said: "Laura and the boys came together to help with the fundraising and put into words why it is so important to them.
"Phil was so touched by what they said. I think that comes across in the video they made and is why the fundraising has been such a success."
For Phil, the donations are moving him closer to getting what he calls his "one last lifeline."
He said: "I've been given two options – wait for my disability to get worse and worse, or take a risk and travel abroad for treatment.
"People don't understand the impact MS has on your day to day life.
"I've been refused entry into bars and restaurants on the grounds I'm too drunk – when I haven't touched a drop."
"The other day, I realised I've not even been in the loft of my own house," she continued.
"But what I want more than anything is to walk Laura down the aisle one day – whenever that may be.
"If there's even a possibility of that happening because of this treatment, it will be worth every penny and all the struggle. I just hope we manage to get there."

Thank you

On March 20th, my beloved wife and mother of my children, unexpectedly went into cardiac arrest. She had never presented any symptoms prior to then.
On March 21st, her doctor informed me that her brain was no longer functioning and there was no chance of recovery.
On March 22nd, in accordance with her wishes outlined in her living will, I authorized the medical staff to remove life support. She passed away peacefully at 8:48am central time while I held her hand. She will be missed.
March 23rd would have been our 18th anniversary.
The photo is our last family photo taken March 16th.
No blogging for the foreseeable future. I'm sure you will understand.
Popping in from unsecured and undisclosed location to note that ammo is gone. Tooling around LuckyGunner, they have nothing in stock for a single caliber that I have. Hoo boy.
I'm disappointed at the lack of zombies.
Everyone is freaking the fuck out over an enhanced cold. We did the online ordering of groceries for pick up. They called to say they were several hours behind because of the crowd.
Everyone, calm the hell down. Wash your hands. Don't touch your face. And if you can, stay home. You very probably already have a few weeks of food in your house. Use that.
We've been through worse (swine flu and regular flu). Granted, this is only the early stages and that does not mean it will not be worse. But so far, it's not.
Do not misunderstand, this is a serious thing and act accordingly. But it's not time to panic.
Anyhoo, I'll be out of pocket for a bit. You guys be safe.
Laughs in been prepping for years.
Poor Noted Gun Expert Joe Biden. He had some sort of mental breakdown in which he misrepresented his position on gun, called a semi auto a machine gun, referred to a gun as an AR-14, and told a potential voter he was "full of shit". And this is the best the Democrats can do?
Watching this babbling idiot debate Sanders, a doddering old fool, will be torture.
The CT legislature turned honest citizens into criminals over night by banning magazines that contain arbitrary number of rounds. The Second Amendment Foundation is suing:
The lawsuit alleges state violations of the Second and Fourteenth amendments. Since 2013, Connecticut statute has prohibited individuals from having magazines containing more than ten rounds of ammunition. Violations of the statute can be prosecuted as Class D felonies.
Ross owns a pistol with an original-capacity magazine that can hold 17 cartridges and Basile has pistols that hold 15 rounds in their magazines. Both are licensed to carry for personal and family protection, yet they justifiably worry that they could be prosecuted for carrying fully-loaded defensive sidearms under the state law.
Someone is suing LuckyGunner over their sale of ammo to a mass shooter. The Brady Campaign tried this earlier and it wound up costing them (Brady) quite a bit of money when they lost.
A 94 year old TN man, who was a guard at a concentration camp, is being deported for war crimes.
I feel sorry for Liz. This is the second time she's had to leave a race.
Gun sales up. 63% in Virginia. In light of noted gun expert Joe Biden's comments about going after guns, I expect more.
Just got back from the White House. @realDonaldTrump made it abundantly clear that he will NOT accept a clean reauthorization of the Patriot Act without significant FISA reform! I agree with him!
— Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) March 4, 2020
Anyone can disarm anyone they like. Here's the tale of one.
Or Glock compatible handguns. A lot of people seem to be getting into the business of making fancy Glocks. Except Glock.
Bloomberg is out. I'd imagine he's feeling pretty small right now. He spent nearly a half a billion dollars to get trounced by an absolute idiot and a communist.
Bloomberg responds to his hypocrisy on guns.
Oh, and here he is admitting that he bought congressional seats.
He's spent a ton of money to have zero delegates.
He wants to appoint Bobby Francis as a gun control czar.
This guy. Remember when he said "hell, yeah we're gonna take your AR-15? Bobby Francis has done nothing but lose over and over. Only as a democrat can you continually fail and get promoted.
The court denied cert for one case. Gorsuch seemed game for more:
To make matters worse, the law before us carries the possibility of criminal sanctions. And, as the government itself may have recognized in offering its disclaimer, whatever else one thinks about Chevron, it has no role to play when liberty is at stake. Under our Constitution, "[o]nly the people's elected representatives in the legislature are authorized to 'make an act a crime.'"
I'd tell that to the millions of bureaucrats who make up laws every day.

About the hotel
1820 Market Street
St. Louis, MO 63103
Room Rate: $192 + taxes and fees
All conference events will be held at the St. Louis Union Station Hotel a former train station that is now a National Historic Landmark. The first train pulled into Union Station on September 1, 1894 at 1:45pm, ushering in a new and exciting time for St. Louis. The city known for being the gateway to the West suddenly became a gateway to all of America. Over the next several years, Union Station would become one of the largest and busiest passenger rail terminals in the world.
The station saw some of its highest traffic during the World's Fair of 1904 and World War II. Travelers moved in droves through the station, where a regular day's capacity of more than 100,000 people was normal, and the midway became the most popular spot to see and be seen. People like President Harry Truman, Joe DiMaggio, Joan Crawford and St. Louis baseball teams the Browns and the Cardinals all made appearances at Union Station.
Today, Union Station is a balance of nostalgia and renovation. The stylish and sophisticated Grand Hall features elegant historic touches like the original terrazzo floor, green glazed terracotta bricks, stained glass windows and wooden carpentry detailing. Anchoring the entire Union Station development will be the stunning St. Louis Aquarium. Visitors will also get a bird's-eye view of the train shed and the iconic St. Louis skyline when they board the neighboring 200-foot St. Louis Wheel.
Hotel proximity to St. Louis attractions
The St. Louis Union Station Hotel is located close to major attractions. From the first glimpse of the iconic Gateway Arch to the offbeat gems that thrive in its 79 unique neighborhoods, St. Louis has fully emerged from its shell. It has unveiled itself as a global culinary hotspot. With 170 parks, dozens of golf courses, hundreds of miles of greenway trails, plus an overwhelmiong number of performing arts venues, museums and breweries there are plenty of memorable moments to be made all over the city.
The St. Louis Lambert International Airport is about a 25-30 minute drive to the hotel. If you drive, valet parking is highly recommended and available at the Main Grand Hall entrance on East-bound Market Street. If you chose to Self Park please do so behind Maggies O'Briens next to the hotel on 20th street. There is a light rail service, MetroLink, from the airport to the Union Station which is a half a block from the hotel. The cost is $4.50. For additional information and directions, visit the hotel website.
