Medical billing can follow a very complex and strange process. For those who don’t or haven’t actually worked as doctors, or for insurance companies, the procedures can be quite opaque, but fundamentally it is quite simple.When a patient goes to a medical provider for surgery or to be put on medication, or simply to diagnose conditions the patient has been experiencing, there are certain costs for each service the medical practitioner provides to the patient. The provider records these costs in a form, usually a HCFA, or “hic-fuh,” which can be either electronic or paper. The HCFA is then sent to the patient’s insurance company, or sometimes to a clearinghouse or other middleman that can process the claim. When processing a claim, the insurance company look
Advertising made easy, and your wallet will love it too!In today's market, anyone in business knows that advertising is the backbone to the success, and without it, you are "dead in the water". Even with the greatest product on the planet, a product that you know everyone needs and wants. Without advertising, it's just an idea, going nowhere.Whether you advertise online or offline, it can become a gruelling and expensive experience, with no guarantees.I'm sure that there is not a business out there that has ever done any kind of advertising, that hasn't lost a bunch of money, advertising their hearts out.Advertising is elusive.

1. The product and service to offer your customers.
2. How you will make your products available to your customers.
3. How you will communicate the benefits of your products and persuade customers to buy them.
4. The price that you will charge your customers.
This is called the marketing mix. It consists of everything you can do to influence the demand for your products or service. Every entrepreneur must develop his own marketing strategy on the basis of these four elements.
1. PRODUCT/ SERVICE
2. PROMOTION
3. PLACE
4. PRICE
The entrepreneur has control over the marketing mix and can vary it to suit the needs of his customers and the resources of his business. Customers are continually matching their need with the products offered by your competitors. You know your target market and their needs and from a
Ticket design is often overlooked. Event planners and organizers plan how many tickets they will need for a given event and how to distribute those tickets, but stop short of putting much thought into the ticket design itself. From a branding perspective this is a lost opportunity. Branding is, after all, managing all of the different touch points that an organization has with the public and your tickets are one touch point that all of your customers will come in contact with.I have kept several tickets from events that I attended including one from the 2002 Winter Olympics and four from the 2003 Notre Dame vs. Navy football game. I, like most people, keep tickets from events that meant something to me, but there is another factor in determining whether

I'm often asked if I could just do either the print side or the website side of a brand design project. And while that's certainly possible, I don't recommend it.Splitting a branding project typically results in a lack of consistency between pieces in your marketing kit. All of your brand materials should have similar design elements. When a project is split among different design firms, often those firms don't have a similar style, and you can wind up with print collateral, for example, that looks dramatically different from your website. In this case, when potential customers receive your business card and then go to your website, it might take them a moment to realize that they're in the right place... and that moment can affect the level of trust that y

In 1957, a perspicacious young journalist from Pennsylvania named Vance Packard wrote a book called The Hidden Persuaders. It was meant to explain to the public at large why they buy the products they do and to warn them about the psychological aspects of consumer appeal that lie beneath the levels of consciousness. A red car, for example, has hidden stimuli, for red is a color that makes people angry. If you think I’m nuts, (I am, but not about this), check with some insurance companies. I was dumbfounded to learn that the collision rate was slightly higher for a red car! Packard’s premise was mind-boggling and insightful for its day. Even he, however, under-estimated the full extent to which modern advertising has penetrated our psyches

Recently we helped a small business owner re-write his marketing and business plans. The owner was grateful for the new copy, but expressed a concern that he may have issues writing copy for marketing materials later in the year. He said,"It is so hard to start from scratch writing a marketing document when you have a blank piece of paper staring you in the face." We understood completely and wanted to leave him with a tool that could help him create "branded copy" quickly. We came up with a "content blocks" tool to help him locate chunks of content to "plug and play" into all types of sales / marketing documents. Checking back with the owner, he has used the Contents Blocks document in several ways including sharing it with his webmaste
