YourUpdateTV

Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, and while this year’s day of love might look a little different, that’s all the more reason to celebrate the people around you. Recently, Beauty and Lifestyle Expert, Alle Fister, teamed with YourUpdateTV on a satellite media tour to share her top gift ideas for Valentine’s Day 2021. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/o0C7M0hi3w8 Valentine’s Day Brunch With the 14th falling on a Sunday this year, it means brunch will be a popular activity for many. So, whether you are having a romantic day with your partner or celebrating ‘Galentine’s Day’ on the 13th with friends, it’s always a good idea to kick off your celebrations with the ‘official sponsor of brunch’, Korbel. They have some really fun and easy 1 to 1 ratio cocktails such as the Chambord Royale, which is the PERFECT pink drink for at-home date night. Just pour Chambord into a flute glass, top with sparkling wine, and finish with a raspberry garnish. Dressing for the Occasion If you’re getting a little more dressed up for the occasion, checkout ModCloth’s Sweetheart Shop which features vintage inspired silhouettes from XS to 4X that will have you falling head over heels. These are the perfect option for any Valentine’s Day ensemble. Valentine’s Day ‘Self-Love’ It’s been a long year, so I think we could all use a little self-love. One great option is from Birchbox. If you’re like me, you’re less ‘beauty obsessed’ and more ‘beauty casual’. You can’t spend all your time sorting through beauty products, so you prefer a simple and personalized way to explore different options. Birchbox exists to simplify all of the beauty and grooming product options for you and do a great job selecting product samples tailored to your specific beauty profile. For $15 a month, you can purchase the subscription for yourself or a gift subscription for someone special on your list. Also check out Versed - the cleanest drug store brand out there, period! They have an incredible product called Dew Point, which is great if you want to keep your skin hydrated but don’t like the feeling of traditional cream textures. It absorbs instantly and leaves your skin feeling refreshed and never greasy. Last year, they sold one unit every 3 minutes and 45 seconds, so it’s a popular pick! You can find it online at versedskin.com or in-store at Target. At-Home Fitness Routine We’ve all had to adjust this year, and I think everyone learned one valuable lesson. We need to make the most of our space! Especially those of us living in smaller apartments. So, check out JAXJOX, the ultimate space-saver and the perfect addition to at-home workout routines. The Kettlebell goes from 12-42lbs in the click of a button - and the system includes smart tracking, saving you, and a partners, reps, weight, sets, and power!

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/4u9Fhl4GE4w Stressful times call for comfort food and for many people that means turning to snacking. Before the pandemic, consumers were snacking more than ever – with a focus on healthy products and ingredients. In 2020, there was a surge in packaged foods with consumers buying groceries online instead of going to the store. But snacking has gone beyond just the foods we eat – now snacking is bringing us together for comfort and connect and we’re looking for snacks that are delicious and nutritious! But not all snacks are created equal and research has indicated that consumers want their food to work for them. One in 4 consumers are looking for health benefits from food, and heart health ranks high among what they seek. The best snacks are multi taskers: They do a ton of things at once, providing a powerful combo of: protein, healthy fats & fiber – all are important to keep you feeling satisfied longer. And almonds provide all three components along with a variety of important nutrients. Bonnie Taub-Dix – Blue Diamond partner, Registered Dietitian and author of Read It Before You Eat It – Taking You from Label to Table – conducted a nationwide media tour in conjunction with D S Simon Media and YourUpdate TV to discuss healthy snack options from Blue Diamond. With Blue Diamond, consumers can always have nutritious items on hand. For example: Almond Breeze Almondmilk is made with real California almonds, and is fortified with vitamins and minerals that are essential to a healthy diet. Shelf Stable Almond Breeze Almondmilk lasts for a year unopened in the pantry. Whole Natural Almonds – Just 28 almonds can help satisfy hunger including 6 grams of plant protein. Crave Almond flavors: From Wasabi & Soy Sauce to Spicy Dill Pickle, Salt ‘n Vinegar to Honey Roasted – these almonds will satisfy hunger and give you a nice kick of flavor. Almond Breeze Almondmilk is an excellent source of calcium with 50% more calcium than dairy milk*. In fact, it’s an excellent source of calcium and vitamins D and E as well as a good source of vitamin A. Almond Breeze is a great choice for people who prefer foods that are low in calories, sugar-free, lactose-free, gluten-free, or for those who follow a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. Almonds are incredibly nutritious. Just 28 Whole Natural almonds provide 6 grams of plant protein, 3 grams of fiber, healthy fats and they’re an excellent source of biotin, vitamin E, a good source of magnesium and so much more. With plant-based diets being so popular these days, almonds and Almond Breeze Almondmilk are so versatile they’re perfect ingredients for meals and snacks anywhere from smoothies, to stews and baked goods to meet consumers wherever they are along their health journey.

Jack Panzer and Minuteman Press International Help Independent Printers Sell Their Printing Business

Minuteman Press International Inc

Minuteman Press International, the world’s leading design, marketing, and printing franchise, is continuing to expand its Minuteman Press Franchise Conversion Program. The program assists independent printers with selling their printing business at no cost and no broker fees to them. “We don’t charge anything to sellers. We take on the advertising costs and we provide 45 years of printing industry experience in evaluating their business as well as helping them prepare for the sale. What we get in return is simply another Minuteman Press or International Minute Press location that we’ll help the buyer build and grow,” says Jack Panzer, Minuteman Press International Regional Vice President, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and Wyoming Region (Minuteman Press International operates as International Minute Press in Arizona). There is high demand for printing today, as Jack says, “Local businesses are vital to the American economy. Every business needs and uses the products and services that we offer. My job is to help evaluate and sell businesses where both the seller and the buyer are happy with their decision.” When is it a good time to sell a printing business? Jack answers, “The second you think about selling is the right time because there’s no guarantee as to how long it will take. I have sold printing businesses in 30 days, in six months, in one year, in two years. It really has to do with the buyer, the timing, and making sure the groundwork is laid to execute the sale.” How does it work and what does the owner need to sell? In his experience, Jack says the biggest thing is to keep it simple. “Let’s have a face to face meeting and get to know each other. We can talk and see if we are comfortable with each other, then make sure the business fits our model. We want this to be mutually beneficial. Let’s see what you’re looking for and what we’re looking for and find out if it matches up.” Jack adds, “There is no pressure and we are simply here to help. I will work with you to assess the business. If we can agree to work together, all I need is three years of financials. Through due diligence on our end, we are able to evaluate the business and suggest a fair market price.” He continues, “We are experts in the printing industry for 45 years. It’s not just about the P&Ls. It’s about the value of the business, the ties to the community, and the staff involvement. When we sell your printing business, we are able to train the buyer and offer more products and services. You don’t have to worry about long-term training or a prolonged transition because we train and support the buyer.” “When sellers sign up with us, there are no surprises, there are no fees, and it’s a very transparent process. They can also see the track record that Minuteman Press has as printing industry leaders for 45 years. We are not going anywhere.” – Jack Panzer What issues and concerns do independent printers run into when selling? According to Jack, “One of the biggest issues printers run into when selling is when they deal with a business broker who doesn’t follow through or have the printing industry experience needed to sell the business properly.” He adds, “Where we differ is that we have the printing experience and we want to sell the business in a timely manner. We are experts at selling print or print-like businesses and we know what it takes to evaluate and sell the business.” Another big difference is that Minuteman Press is able to attract a wider pool of buyers. Jack explains, “We build personal relationships with our owners, we support the buyer throughout the life of their business, and we have a vested interest in their success. We don’t just make the sale, shake their hands, and say good luck.” The sellers also raise concerns about their customers and what will happen to them. “They want to know their legacy is going to continue. We make sure there is a smooth transition so that the clients know they are in good hands with the new owner.” Another issue that comes up is financing the sale. “Minuteman Press has financing options available for buyers that may help facilitate the sale, which is another burden lifted from the seller.” Keeping it Simple Ultimately, Jack Panzer and the team at Minuteman Press International offer an effective and transparent way for independent printers to sell their printing business at no cost and no broker fees to them. Jack’s approach is to keep it simple, stay proactive, and keep in touch. “One thing I always promise is that I will communicate with you throughout this process and I’m confident I will sell your printing business.” For more information on the Minuteman Press Franchise Conversion Program, visit https://bit.ly/minutemanpressconversions or call 1-800-645-3006.

2021 Will Be the Year of Meaningful Travel

YourUpdateTV

Airbnb released a new report and highlighted how 2021 will see a shift toward more meaningful travel as the pandemic continues to limit mass tourism and afflict the industry overall. When travel returns in 2021, it will be about connecting with loved ones through more personal trips, with mass tourism unlikely to return at any scale this year. Recently, Director of International Communications at Airbnb, Cassidy Blackwell, teamed with YourUpdateTV on a satellite media tour to discuss this trend and much more. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/f00q-568WXw In the report, US consumers say their near-term travel priority is to spend time with family and friends in comfortable, familiar and secure settings. Here are some additional findings from the report: Travel for pleasure is the out-of-home activity Americans have missed the most—over going to restaurants and bars, and attending sporting and other live events. A majority is ready to travel again: 54% have either already booked, are currently planning to travel, or expect to travel in 2021. This includes 57% of 18- to 29-year-olds, and 60% of 30- to 49-year-olds. The type of travel people have missed the most is visiting with family and friends. Business travel is the type of travel they have missed the least. Connecting with family and friends is also the type of travel that has grown most in importance as people look to travel after the pandemic: 41% say such travel has become “much more” important to them, almost twice the percentage who cite travel to accomplish personal goals (22%). Affordability is the top priority overall when it comes to choosing accommodation not just for the first trip but for future travel indefinitely (54%), beating health and safety protocols by 10 points. Nearly three in five Americans (58%) earning less than $50,000 per year say they are booked, planning or expecting to travel in 2021. Based on ongoing Airbnb guest survey data, a majority of guests—including 53% of all homes guests in 2019—tell us they choose Airbnb to save money while traveling. 56% of those under age 50 say they would be “much” or “somewhat more likely” to use an online platform which offers the ability to search for alternate energy and green accommodations. Only 28% of those aged 50+ say the same.

Our homes are our sanctuary; it is one of the few places where we feel comfortable, safe, and at peace. However, with the current events, many of us need to try to transform our homes into a more relaxing place, helping us to cope with all the stress that we might feel. Caroline Fabrigas, CEO of Scent Marketing Inc. and Co-founder of Scent Invent Technology partnered with Citizen, D S Simon Media, and YourUpdate TV on a nationwide media tour to discuss the ways the scents can be used to create a relaxing home environment and discuss the launch of the new scent-diffusing wellness clock from Citizen called Sensory Time™. The use of scent has become a vital part of everyday life as the pursuit for health and wellness increases.

Eco-Drive isn’t an ordinary power source — it’s one with purpose built in. About YourUpdateTV: YourUpdateTV is a social media video portal for organizations to share their content.
