Social Media Ideas
We are working hard to try to stay with the times and use social media outlets as a way to service our clients, grow our business and learn new things.
If you have any tips that have worked for you, please let us know.
I was at a conference recently where Mitch Joel spoke about social media and some of the applications and you may find his website interesting.

Great Opportunities to Help
I have been blessed to be introduced to so many great people over the years and want to say "Thank You" to everyone who has made those introductions possible.
We all have such a fantastic opportunity to help people. To all the people who believe in us and trust us enough to introduce us to their friends and colleagues we want you to know that it is truly appreciated.
I will continue to do my best to help as many people as we can and I ask that you all do the same.
Take care,
Paul

Help Navigating Through Health Concerns
This is a testimonial by a friend of my sister-in-law. Please let us know if you have any questions.
Best Doctors - http://www.bestdoctors.com/canada/home.php
After years of running into dead ends and hearing “there’s nothing we can do” with regards to my daughter’s condition, I called Best Doctors in Canada. The person who answered the phone identified herself as a nurse, she wasn’t just a receptionist or answering service, or the dreaded recording saying “press 1 for…”. After about an hour of conversation she said someone would get back to me in about a week to 10 days. The very next day I got a call from my assigned case worker who gave me a list of names of doctors in my area she found on the internet and that she would be sending me a list of doctors from their database. The following week I received a nice, bound portfolio of the Best Doctors recommended doctors. I sent the doctors’ requested referrals and within a week I received a call from one of the doctors (who practices at the other end of the country). We spoke at great length about my daughter’s condition and he offered several options to suggest to our family doctor. He also took it upon himself to forward her case to a surgical specialist colleague who we arranged to see within two weeks!!! We haven’t reached the end of our journey to wellness yet but at least we again have forward motion.
I would recommend Best Doctors to anyone who has the service available to them. I only had to tell our “story” once, to that first person who answered the phone. Best Doctors truly cares about their “patients” and they have been in contact me with regard to how things are going and to say they are there if I wish to extend my search for the “Best Doctor” for our situation. If you have it, use it!

Ottawa to Attend the Conference for Advanced Life Underwriting
I arrived in Ottawa this afternoon to attend this conference. It is a gathering of some of the top insurance financial planning experts from across Canada. I've been looking forward to a great learning experience and networking opportunity.
I had some time to enjoy Ottawa this afternoon and it reminded me how beautiful a country we live in. The weather is gorgeous and spring has sprung hear. Walking along the Rideau Canal is an experience everyone should have at least once in their life. Truly beautiful!
Have a great week everyone, I look forward to coming back to Calgary with many new ideas to enhance the value we bring to our clients, etc.
Take care,
Paul
