Media Outlet: RateGenius

Deadline: 11:00 PM EST - 30 November

Many cosigners will agree to cosign for a car loan without

advice is appreciated for questions along the lines of:

* Do I share equal responsibility for paying a loan I've
cosigned?

* If the primary borrower stops paying the loan, can I take
ownership of the car if I continue payments? * Is my credit
weighed or considered as heavily as the borrower's when
cosigning a loan?

* What can I do if the borrower refuses to remove me from the
loan after they've stopped making payments?

* Can any of my personal property be used as collateral in the
event the primary borrower stops paying?

* Is it possible for me to remove myself as a cosigner without
permission from the borrower?

Thank you!

Media Outlet: One Million by One Million

Deadline: 8:00 AM EST - 30 November

Query:

Hi, My name is Sheldon Chi. I am responsible for coordinating
stories for the 1Mby1M blog [1mby1m.com]]. I am looking to
interview entrepreneurs who are building cutting-edge
cybersecurity solutions for various segments of the market. I am
only interested in those who already have customers and at least
some revenue. The market, of course, is crowded, so we'd need to
understand what is unique, how you differentiate, etc. Pitching
Instructions: Please outline the specific story angle, value
proposition, target market, differentiation vis-a-vis
competitors, as well as revenue level and customer validation
situation. This blog is part of the One Million by One Million
global initiative, whose aim is to help a million entrepreneurs
reach $1 million in annual revenue (http://1mby1m.com). The
1M/1M blog is read by tons of VCs in the technology industry,
and the publicity we can create for you may very likely help you
attract investor attention if that's something you desire. Our
media work is aligned with our core mission of helping
entrepreneurs build successful companies. Also, 1M/1M has
syndication relationships with many venues: HBR, Xconomy,
SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India), Women 2.0, Mashable,
Huffington Post, Business Insider, ReadWriteWeb, and several
other sites. Articles we develop through these interviews often
get repackaged for the syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was

Name: Sheldon Chi One Million by One Million

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-bm08@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: One Million by One Million

Deadline: 8:00 AM EST - 30 November

Query:

For my Entrepreneur Journeys series, I'm looking for interesting
virtual companies in technology and technology-enabled services,
companies with at least $5 million in annual revenue. I'm
interested in interviewing the entrepreneur behind the company
who is willing to discuss the nuances of the strategy and
process of company building, spanning topics such as
bootstrapping, financing, positioning, customer acquisition,
channels, team building, etc. To pitch, provide revenue level,
industry and focus of the story angle in terms of
company-building experience. We use the revenue level as a
qualification criterion for selecting entrepreneurs to profile;
we don't necessarily have to publish this number in the actual
story. The Entrepreneur Journeys series has already produced 12
books (http://tinyurl.com/4p4phwy). See examples of the series
on my blog (http://tinyurl.com/d8m9mt). This blog is part of the
One Million by One Million global initiative, whose aim is to
help a million entrepreneurs reach $1 million in annual revenue.
We use the EJ interviews as case studies to teach other
entrepreneurs how to navigate the entrepreneurial waters. You
get publicity, as well as a platform to share your lessons from
the trenches with a large number of aspiring and practicing
entrepreneurs. 1M/1M has syndication relationships with many
venues: HBR, Xconomy, SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India),
Women 2.0, Mashable, Huffington Post, Business Insider,
ReadWriteWeb, and several other sites. Articles often get
repackaged for the syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was
named by Forbes in the Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs
(http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs). I was also named as one of the top
10 LinkedIn influencers of 2015 (https://goo.gl/AN9TjS). The
procedure is to have a one-hour interview by phone or in-person
in my Menlo Park office. We publish a very long, detailed 5- to
10-part interview, so the discussion needs to be in-depth.

large companies with unique perspectives on how the big data
industry is evolving. We discuss trends, disruptions,
entrepreneurial opportunities, monetization models, challenges,
socio-cultural impact and much more in a seven-part series. Of
particular interest to us is the use of machine learning
techniques in scaling analytics models within Big Data. This

$1 million in annual revenue. 1M/1M has syndication
relationships with many venues: HBR, Xconomy, SmallBizTrends,

named by Forbes in the Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs
(http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs) and among the top 100 influencers on
the topic of cloud computing. Indicate in your pitch the revenue
level, as we use this as a qualification criterion for selecting
entrepreneurs to profile. We don't necessarily have to publish
this number in the actual story. Please also provide the story
angle, talking points, etc., so we can gauge what is the thought
leadership point of view we will be highlighting in the series.
Our audience is extremely sophisticated, so the conversation
needs to be equally interesting.

Media Outlet: Kiplinger's Retirement Report

This article is for readers on a budget who are trying to

The goal of this article is to explain some types of insurance
that a reader may be able to do without, depending on the
situation. It will give the context of when these products are
needed and when they are not.

It's not meant to bash any one product, but rather help readers
figure out where their limited insurance dollars should go.

We are looking for quotes from insurance experts and financial
advisors to help readers answer this question.

Requirements:

You are an insurance expert or financial advisor.

You are familiar with the U.S. insurance market, and can comment
on different products.

need.

Are you a female professional that managed to repay a
significant amount of student loan debt during the COVID-19
pandemic -- or plan to pay off your loans within a few months
from now? I'd love to hear your story! What were some of the
strategies you used to repay your student loan debt? Did you
find certain aspects of the pandemic (i.e. decreased monthly
expenses in eating out or going out for entertainment purposes)
made it possible to repay this debt faster? What would you
advise to those that want to pay off their debt during the
pandemic? Where they should get started and what kind of common
repayment advice doesn't work? I'm also interested in advice
from female financial advisors and personal finance experts that
can share their thoughts on student loan repayment tips that
work versus advice that does not and why.

Requirements:

Seeking responses from female professionals that were able to
repay student loans during the COVID-19 pandemic and female
financial advisors and personal finance experts. Please include
your first and last name, job title, location, and the answers
