Charitable life insurance

This is the scenario:
Some a 501c she and I met with them. They have an interest in charitable life insurance as well as keyman for the two directors. I asked AP for guidance in regard to census and or conference call. It is not as complicated as I thought it would be however I’m assuming we will need a sample letter to solicit from donors. I don’t want to jeopardize the organizations daily operating expense if we look to solicit Charitable life insurance for long term payout.
I need your advice.
Thanks

GTD – Outlook 2007 and Managing a Large Volume of Sales Opportunities

I have been using the GTD Netcentrics Outlook plug-in with Outlook 2007 for about 9 months.  In this process, I have found many strengths and limitations with the latter being exposed because of the nature of my business.

Imagine having 1300 total customers located in 12 states.  Each customer has potentially 500-5000 clients – though at any 1 time we are tracking no more than 10.  We are trying to organize our activity on an on going basis and provide reporting to our management and each of our customers managers as to our activity, and status of business leads we are developing.

It is a beast at times, and I will attempt to share in this blog some of the lessons learned.

McMenamins in Seattle

A great meal, ambience, and friendly service.

I had the voodoo chicken sandwich and tater tots. I had the sauce on the side but it is sweet and spicy. The chicken breast was very large and the bin was whole grain. The tater tots were excellent – crispy just like I love them.

The decor is Irish- ish with a very large bar dominating the main room. Apparently, one side of the bar is for those over age 21 and the other is for anyone. I was told by my inn keeper at the Hampton inn that the place gets real loud and fun. Tonight us Monday andnit is about 1/3 full. There are great tunes playing and I can see how McMansions is alot of fun. I definitely recommend it!
