SYDNEY, Australia – November 6, 2015 – Phone Friend is an exciting, new phone case that comes complete with a combined reading glasses case and a pair of designer reading glasses. Phone Friend is the solution to two of the biggest challenges phone users are facing. First, reading text messages, website browsing, and looking at pictures is extremely difficult for those who don’t have on reading glasses. The second solution is that Phone Friend makes sure that those users always have their reading glasses on-hand. Everyone has hunted high and low for one of the numerous pairs of reading glasses, around the house. Luckily, Phone Friend solves these two huge issues! 

The Phone Friend phone case is available to suit the brand of the user’s mobile phone, and it’s available in many different colors. They also come in different strengths varying from +1.0 to +3.5. Corrective strength units, or diopters, are used to indicate lower or weaker and higher or stronger corrective powers. However, before everyone can use this convenient phone case, Phone Friend needs help. That’s why they launched this Kickstarter campaign. The goal of this project is to raise $50,000 AUD by December 2, 2015. The funds raised will go towards tooling, patents, and production.  

To help bring this innovative phone case to market, please visit the Kickstarter campaign or click here. Perks will be delivered by February 2016. 

Please keep in mind this is an “all-or-nothing” deal, which means if the campaign does not reach the funding goal then the project cannot move forward. So know that any amount given can make a difference, and this is an incredible opportunity to be a part of a special campaign! Help Phone Friend reach the goal by sharing this on Facebook, Twitter, and other social networks. The more people know about this, the more support the campaign will receive.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – 10/16/2015 (PRESS RELEASE JET) — Caring Things Inc., a Columbus-based Health tech startup company, is proud to announce Co-Founder Ryan McManus’s invitation to speak at the Launch Mobile Conference today, discussing the future of parenting and Caring Things first device, Tympani, a smart thermometer that tracks the bodies temperature using a mobile application.

“We are honored to have been asked to present along side other awesome entrepreneurs that have developed IoT devices that help parents care for their children.  The future of parenting is as challenging as it is exciting.  Parents of older children know the challenges of managing Internet content and making sure your kids are having good habits.” said Caring Things Co-Founder Ryan McManus.

Ryan, a startup marketer and entrepreneur focused on Internet of Things and Health Tech, has launched over 30 products, with the intentions of using telemedicine as the next great frontier in healthcare, especially in 3^rdworld countries that lack infrastructure and quality doctors.

The initial reaction to the launch of Caring Things first device, Tympani, has been overwhelming, with a very successful crowd funding campaign on Indiegogo (raising over $18,000), and over 300 units sold in over 50 countries in less than 30 days.

“Pediatricians have shown much support for Tympani, as it better connects doctors with their patients” said McManus.

With the popularity of smart phones, IoT platform based devices no longer have an age limit. Users of Tympani, young and old, can accurately detect the body’s temperature using their mobile smart devices.

“We have a lot of grandparents that have ordered Tympani, and everyone these days own a smartphone.” said McManus.

Caring Things Inc. continues to push the boundaries within the Health Tech industry, creating mobile devices that will improve the way we look at telemedicine.

“Our next big announcement is a personal healthcare record that will be a part of the Caring Things app.  After that, we will be introducing 3 devices for home healthcare tracking.  These devices will provide us with “total vital sign monitoring” and extend the services that a teledoctor can provide.” said McManus.

MONTREAL, Canada – October 19, 2015 – “Wars Across the World,” (WAW) an exciting, new video game, was recently announced by Strategiae. “WAW” is a unique game concept that aims at simulating, in one single system, all of the conflicts throughout the world and beyond. From Prehistoric times to nowadays, from grand massive wars to asymmetrical conflicts, this game explores it all. The key is the use of a single system of rules and situations which works in all cases. Why? Because they want players to learn rules only once, get confident with them, and then spend all their time with the titles in the collection in a speedy and effortless manner. For example, the battle screen will be similar throughout the game, and thus will require almost no adaptation for enjoying it in a new game! 

“Wars Around the World” has been designed and developed by Strategiae, an independent Franco-Canadian game company from near Saint-Etienne, southeast of France, and Montreal, Quebec. All team members are dedicated longtime players of board games, war games, and video games. They have decided to create their own unique game system that would fill their desire to simulate all the conflicts that they wanted to play. While they were developing and trying the rules, it quickly appeared that they would be easy to adapt to all conflicts that spanned our world through the ages. However, before everyone can enjoy this incredible game, “Wars Across the World” needs help. That’s why they launched this Kickstarter campaign. The goal of this project is to raise $15,000 CAD by December 13, 2015. 

To help bring this innovative game to market, please visit the Kickstarter campaign or click here. Perks will be delivered between December 2015 and August 2016. 

Please keep in mind this is an “all-or-nothing” deal, which means if the campaign does not reach the funding goal then the project cannot move forward. So know that any amount given can make a difference, and this is an incredible opportunity to be a part of a special campaign! Help “War Across the Worlds” reach the goal by sharing this on Facebook, Twitter, and other social networks. The more people know about this, the more support the campaign will receive.

For many golfers, the greatest challenge is determining the actual distance to a hole. With the new Caddieye rangefinder, golfers can quickly and accurately learn the distance to any flag. Caddieye is a powerful device that works with any iOS or Android smartphone to instantly calculate the distance to a flag. Unlike other rangefinders, Caddieye uses Bluetooth technology to combine the powerful laser emitter with the many cloud-based features of your smartphone to create an effective sporting platform that will improve your golf game.

Developed in conjunction with major technology and sporting authorities like First Round, HAMK, Conseptas, and Loimijoki Golf, Caddieye is specifically designed for golfing and disc golf enthusiasts. Caddieye is a laser emitter that attached to the back of your smartphone and an app that utilizes your smartphone’s camera to produce a range that is accurate to within two meters. The rangefinder is controlled by an Arm Cortex-M3 microcontroller and powered by an independent battery with a micro-USB connector for fast recharging. Caddieye uses the smartphone camera to capture a visual image of the landscape while you select the target to measure. This robust system also stores key information about your performance as well as thousands of golf courses in the cloud so that you can instantly access it from anywhere on the course.

Caddieye promises to revolutionize the games of golf and disc golf, but it will require your support to reach mass production. The Caddieye team has sponsored a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to raise $90,000 which will be used for certifications, testing, mold costs and mass production. In return for your generous support, you can receive perks like Caddieye apps, T-shirts, snapback, rangefinders, and special edition golf balls or discs.

After Merchant Resources called the 1-800 listed on each of these merchant services, a variety of differences and cost of each of these credit card merchant services have been discovered. The compilation below:

Square Reader

• Base Retail Visa/MC rate of 2.75% • Key Entered Rate of 3.5%

The square reader is a good solution if your average ticket is under $10. Otherwise, you are paying to much with square reader.

Last week I created a press release and instead of using PRWeb Press Release Distribution I decided to try another distribution service.

Why?

Well there are a lot of press release distribution out there and sticking with one that provides you with the best service is recommended however there are some tasks that don’t massively impact your business if you try another company once in a while. Press release services, in my opinion, is one of them.

I located PrBoom.net via search and decided to give them a try. Their packages are priced with the small business in mind and are quite reasonable for that they give you. I selected the ‘Search Engine Visibility’ package which is very well priced.

PRBoom Uses most traditional media outlets, like TV and radio channels, now have vibrant news websites that present their content online. If you want the attention you deserve, your press release needs to circulate among these outlets. They  make sure your news gets featured on top TV and radio news sites that report happenings in your industry. They distribute your press release to over 1000 Top News Sites and Google News.

The signup process is quick and simple and I had my press release submitted in less than 20 minutes. With PRWeb its a bit longer as the submission form is split up into many pages.

Once I submitted my press release I waited for the response back (with PRWeb this includes helpful tips about the content). After about 2 days I started to get concerned at the lack of response so I went to their ‘contact us’ page and requested contact. No response. By this time it was the weekend and I was starting to get annoyed with the lack of response.

What I did next can only be done with the ‘magic’ of social networks – I did a search and located their Facebook Page and posted a comment – I also located the founder of PrBoom.net LinkedIn profile and connected with her.

Bingo!

The response was fast. Not only did I have customer support contacting me I had the founder of the business emailing me concerned that my emails had gone missing. From then on I guess the correct process took its course and I received the feedback response about my press release as well as checks from the founder.

The press release is now up and I am happy.

What impressed me the most was the personal approach to the review of my press release. With PRWeb you kinda get the feeling that they are using a template process with standard response blocks of text that they copy and paste into their review. With Onlineprnews’s review you could see that the review was written from start to finish by a person who had actually read the content and wanted the best success for me.

22 October, 2015 – SEO is becoming broadly embraced as an Internet advertising strategy due to its own effectiveness. Using simple optimisation techniques, your website can rocket up the page ranks in just minutes, however not knowing what needs changing and what doesn’t can be very detrimental to your website. This is why we at SEO Sussex (http://www.seosussex.co/) have started up our own consultancy company, to help businesses of all sizes get themselves seen in the digital ocean.

So what can SEO Sussex do for my website?

The world of the internet is changing every day, but one thing that is for certain is that SEO remains one of the most powerful factors in getting your website seen. With over 70 domains being registered every 60 seconds, it’s going to be easy to become lost, so seeking our help has proven extremely beneficial to businesses of all sizes (more information at http://www.seosussex.co/).

People fight for the top spots on page ranks every day, optimising and editing pages and citations, filling their content with keywords. Of course, working hard for key terms may be very competitive for some niches more than others, but sometimes ranking for general keywords is of no benefit whatsoever. Local terms and long tail may in fact be your best bet depending on your niche and scope.

ROI – Search engine optimization provides quantifiable and trackable results, no matter whether you’re non or an ecommerce website there are not any qualms in regards to ROI. SEO services can monitor virtually all facets of the strategy, like increases in traffic positions and conversions. All-Inclusive analytics offer the capability to drill down in a level that is granular and see other engagement metrics and demographic info for people who’ve interacted together with your web site. To which key word, search engine optimization services can see which routes users take to be able to finish a sale, all of the way down for Ecommerce websites they used to look prior to buying for you.

SEO is among the marketing strategies that are very cost effective as it targets users that are looking for the services and products online. SEO’s inbound nature helps companies save cash rather than outbound strategies like cold calling. The leads created price 61% more than leads produced by means of an inbound strategy while cold calling may be a successful strategy.

In an attempt to turn your site simpler to browse for the major search engines, search engine optimization concurrently helps you to create your site navigable at the same time. Search engine optimization consists of rearranging links and the website’s structure to create pages inside the site simpler to locate and browse. This makes it more easy for search engines like Google find pages and to crawl your site, but in addition makes it much easier for users to get info on your own web site too.

Brand Recognition – Getting your site in these leading places translates for the web site since top position ranks result in major feelings. Plus, being on the initial page for the key words that are targeted helps users to connect your brand with those key words, since businesses to the initial page are usually seen to be trustworthy, but it instils trust. This is something that many companies struggle to do, however SEO Sussex (http://www.seosussex.co/) take the time to learn about your company, so we are able to optimise and take action without damaging your existing work or compromising the values of your brand and image.

Like that which you read? To find out more on SEO could be advantageous to get a totally free SEO consultation, or for your site, please Contact SEO Sussex and we’d be pleased to assist.
