Van Heusen has been selling shirts since 1881. Initially these were woolen shirts sold to coal miners in America. In 1921 Van Heusen patented the soft-folding collar and it was in that year they started selling the type of shirt for which they are today well known.

Open A Cleaning Business?

If you like to clean, there are several ways that you can turn this passion into a job. Opening your own business is a great idea if you want to work alone or with a few friends. You need to be able to take all of your supplies with you when you clean, so it is a good idea to have a van or large car. You should also invest in basic cleaning supplies until you get your business off the ground. Some of these supplies include a vacuum, mop and cleansers. When you have collected all of the things that you need to begin cleaning, you can start advertising your services. Tell your friends and family that you are cleaning, and take out an ad in a local newspaper. The more word of mouth business that you can get, the faster your business will grow. You should not charge your first clients a large amount of money. You want to establish yourself in the community, and then you can increase your rates. Start off with basic cleaning services such as sweeping, mopping floors and vacuuming carpets. After you have been working for a few weeks, you can extend your services to businesses and other areas. Call local churches to see if they need someone to clean for them on a weekly or monthly basis. You can also call doctor's offices and government facilities to see if they need anything cleaned. If you can get your name out to large businesses, you will be able to make more money because it is a larger area to clean. Always do your best when you clean an office or home. Another way that you can have a cleaning job is by applying to cleaning agencies in your city. If companies are in need of someone to help them clean, then they will usually hire one or two additional people. You might have to drive the cleaning van or share responsibilities with the other people who clean.


What is a food business' mission?

Depends on the food business. Obviously all of them exist to serve people food, but a burger van works in a different way to the restaurant at the Ritz, which may work completely different to a film location caterer. Then again you may be talking about a greengrocer or a butcher. Value may come in, good service, knowing the customer, local products, but its just too vague a question to be answered in great depth.


What are sales techniques for selling universal life insurance?

One agent told me that it talks, it walks, it dances, and if it could move, it would go out and start your car on cold winter mornings. I mentioned to another agent that universal life is nothing more than a high priced annual renewable term. She called me a name. I said get one of your policies (she did), take it out of the plastic insert and place it open on your desk (she did), without moving the police in any way, shape, or form take a look at the very bottom of the policy (first page) (she did). She said 'this is impossible. I work for a good company'. The bottom of the page reads THIS IS AN ANNUAL RENEWABLE TERM PRODUCT. She didn't believe that the company would lie to her. Read the second piece of paper in a universal life. You can see the decreasing value of the insurance. I carefully researched, read, and scrutinized 5 universal life's from 5 different companies, using a graph. I determined that these policies are designed to be thrown away, for lack of a better word, at about 5 to 7 years down the road. Be careful with the pitch. It's practiced for hours on end by the agent. Does he talk about savings? Notice that is not stapled to the policy. Does he talk about investments? Notice that that is also not stapled to the policy. Ask him to leave his doodlings and notes, all the pieces of paper with numbers, so that you can review later. Notice that he or she won't do that either. Turn your radio on - the song an dance is coming up. Authors on this subject: Venita Van Caspel, Norman Dacey, Jane Bryant Quinn, and the list goes on. Arm yourself with knowledge. ------------------------------------ They will talk about you having money to retire - which is false. A universal life insurance plan will not give you enough money to retire, it barely grows with inflation. They will talk about your ability to borrow against your life insurance plan if you ever need the money, you can do the same thing with a 401K plan (not that I would ever suggest borrowing money from either, you lose interest and growth). My take on whole life is that you should not do it. Read David Bach's book "Smart couples finish rich" to enlighten yourself financially. Before you think about investing in whole life (universal life), you should be maxed out in every other investment inlcuding your 401K, IRAs, etc. Whole life should be your last option for investment. You are better off getting a term life policy and investing the difference (into an IRA) of what you would have paid for whole life.
