Dear Ben Dover,

I read your monthly publications of Making Bank magazine, and was thrilled to receive an email from you inquiring about the services offered through our organization. You stated that if we send you more information and you feel that we have something substantial to offer to the community, you would feature us in your upcoming April issue.

Back in 2006, research concluded from MSN money that 12 out of 20 men and women alike were financially unstable and/ or in debt. We found a great market out there that would benefit from financial education and started Cache Valley Area Investors Association. Cache Valley Area Investors Association has been offering educational meetings to individuals looking to become financially independent. CVAIA is relatively new to the Cache Valley community, but has generated phenomenal results and feedback from students who have attended the meetings. Preston Parker, CVAIA President said, “We focus on individuals who want to learn and apply philosophies of financial independence in their lives.”

Attend a meeting and learn successful investment ideas and theories that you can apply to your own financial situation. Familiarize yourself with the initiative of passive income and the bankable profits that come from it. CVAIA meetings are held every other Thursday at 7p.m. and are open to the public. Information on-line about the meetings are on Facebook and the associations website http://www.cvaia.com/.

If people learn the right mentality and approaches to investing, they can all be successful in what they desire. People should be able to spend their time doing something they love, not just a job that provides an income. Passive Income largely makes this possible. Cache Valley Area Investors Association (CVAIA) teaches people how to increase passive income. CVAIA embraces the Law of Attraction, Law of Abundance, and Law of Exchange. They practice methods found in the ideologies of books including Rich Dad Poor Dad, The Wealthy Barber, The Millionaire Next Door, Atlas Shrugged, The Automatic Millionaire, and The Secret. CVAIA began in August 2007 and now has members from many geological locations and from all walks of life. The members come together with the same belief: that education mitigates the risks of investing.

Cache Valley Area Investors Association is there to help you become free from financially instability and debt. We encourage you to log on to www.cvaia.com and learn more about our expertise. If you have any questions, please contact me.

Sincerely,

Damage Control...Chi Omega

Damage Control….

How does a company effectively recover from crisis situations within the organization? When your business is in the public eye it is important to remain favorable to the public and also with other companies in the industry. However, when disastrous situations spontaneously arise what can be done to do damage control and save the face of an organization?

We can all apply these questions to our own life about how to rebuild reputation and do damage control. I have been a member of the Chi Omega sorority for four years and never have I had to deal with having to justify myself to others, then recently when members of our organization were involved in a hazing incident last semester with a fellow USU student that died. That crisis situation has not only affected our organization but has also affected all clubs, groups and similar organizations at USU. This unfortunate incident has affected the family and friends of the boy that died.

Chi Omega, the organization that I have come to love so much and be a part of for four years, has ultimately been shut down. Well before the press caught wind of our chapter being closed, I already knew what was going on and chose to keep quiet. It’s heartbreaking because the Greek system entirely can have a negative connotation associated with it. Images on movies like ‘Animal House’ portray Greeks as beer guzzling, unintelligent drunks looking to party. Rarely do you hear of the good that Greeks do or the service that they render because of negative preconceived notions of what fraternities and sororities are. In Chi Omega we always try to counteract that portrayal by sustaining good PR interactions with people on campus and within the community. What I mean by “sustaining good PR interactions” entails that as a member of Chi Omega we try to build a good representation of ourselves by becoming involved on campus, getting to know our professors, excelling in our studies, service involvement in the community, etc.

Good PR is vital to all businesses and corporations looking to thrive in their industry. It can inherently affect the company for better or worse. The hazing incident affected Chi Omega as an organization in a negative light. The public makes assumptions based off of information that the media spins that sometimes is true, but a lot of times is fabricated. It’s important for organizations, to internally look to fix problems or concerns that might innately look negative from an outsiders or publics point of view.
