Sorry for the delay in responding and thanks Ann and Jenn for the positive comments about PPL. June, I would be more than happy to explain the plans to see if it is a fit for you. Please feel free to give me a call. Contracts can be a bi**h! Candace

Profile Information

Your company:
Our Little Books, Pre-Paid Legal Services, Inc.
What Makes You Unique:
When I am not working on the new company or out helping individuals, families and small businesses obtain affordable access to the legal system and identity theft protection, my passion is working with raptors. During migration, I capture and band migrating raptors as they pass through the Marin Headlands. My most memorable bird is a Northern Goshawk, because there have only been 5 captured in the entire banding program since the 1980's. Also, capturing a Northern Harrier was also a thrill since not many harriers are caught during a season. I finally caught a Red Shoulder but still looking for my peregrine!
Do you have a web site or blog, if so what is it?
www.ccdavenport.com, www.identitytheftforum.net, www.ourlittlebooks.com
What is your biggest business challenge?
My biggest business challenge is finding enough time to run two businesses. Oh, alright...it is not finding the time. The time is always there. It is MANAGING the time! Now, that is a challenge!
Who Are Your Strategic Partners:
My strategic partners are varied. For my Pre-Paid Legal business 1) Any HR people or benefit brokers who would like to add legal services and identity theft protection to their employee packages at no cost to the employer; 2) Companies that want their employees trained (for free) in the current identity theft laws to help prevent identity breaches; 3) Business coaches or any coaches working with individuals or families or small businesses who want to incorporate affordable access to the legal system in their plans; 4) Realtors and mortgage brokers, whose clients need document reviews and legal advice; 5) Essentially anyone who wants affordable access to the legal system and identity theft protection!

For the Our Little Books business 1) Business coaches who want to offer an unique marketing tool to their clients; 2) Brick and mortar stores that sell books or gifts; 3) Business owners who want to publish their own little book either as a business marketing tool, or as their own personal book.
Are you published?
Yes. My book, The Little Book of Identity Theft, was published by my own company, Our Little Books. In fact, that business was started to publish the Identity Theft book and then expanded into many other fields. Amazing where life leads you when you least expect it!

I also have a Journal out: Simply a Choice, 30 Day Companion Journal. To see them, please go to www.ourlittlebooks.com
Membership to this site is $5.95 a month, have you completed your subscription?
yes

Just an FYI for Businesses- Red Flags Rule Enforcement Postponed for Six Months

The Red Flags Rule that was to go into effect on November 1st, 2008 has been postponed until May 1, 2009. This Rule required financial institutions and creditors with applicable accounts to have identity theft prevention programs in place to identity, detect, and respond to patterns, practices, or specific activities that could indicate identity theft. Potential penalties include jail time and huge fines.

The difficulty was that the law’s definition of a “creditor” or “financial institution” wa… Continue

What Personal Information am I Required to Give to Merchants When Paying by Credit Card?

You know the situation. You are purchasing an item in a store and you give the sales clerk your credit card. The sales clerk now wants to see your driver’s license to prove that you are you and writes down your DOB and driver’s license number. Do you have to give them that information? After all, the clerk now has your credit card number AND with the information on your driver’s license, they have enough information to perpetrate an identity theft.

Surprisingly, in California, laws prevent merc… Continue

It's Tax Season- Be Careful!

Well, we all know that it’s tax season, but what we sometimes forget is that it is also the season for scammers trying to steal our identity.

• Personally, I’ve already received probably twenty emails purportedly from the IRS, requesting my information so that I can receive my refund, or some other form of money from the IRS. These phising schemes always appear to be a legitimate IRS email, but of course are from some other source trying to get my Social Security number and other informa… Continue

Hi Candace,

I'm training new staff in Jan, so I need to keep meetings away from peak hours. Perhaps we could spend some time before an ewomen meeting, or catch dinner in Berkeley/Albany.

Good Afternoon Candice, I was recently at the Wisdom Circle event with Ann and she highly recommended I get into contact with you as she tells me you are an expert in how to read between the franchise contract agreement to find lines of business you can do. I would love to make a connection with you.

I also want to say I LOVED your photos. Pretty darn incredible!
