Name: Nick DiUlio InsuranceQuotes.com

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-bi3g@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: InsuranceQuotes.com

Deadline: 5:00 PM EST - 11 November

Query:

I am currently working on an article that provides the latest
information on what financial resources are available for
employees who have been laid off due to Covid-related closures.
Are unemployment benefits holding up in most states? Does the
original CARES Act have anything to offer laid off employees?
What might a future federal stimulus package potentially have to
offer? And are there any types of insurance that laid off
employees might be able to turn to?

Similarly, I'm also looking at financial resources for business
owners who had to shut down due to Covid. Is there anything left
in the CARES Act that would help them at this point? What role
has business insurance played in helping business owners recover
financial losses? What might a future federal stimulus bill have
to offer business owners? And how might this all affect the
future of business insurance moving forward?

If you have insights on any of these topics I would love to hear
from you! I'm happy to field email replies to my questions or
set up a short interview. Thanks in advance!

Media Outlet: Thrive Global

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 20 November

Query:

Dear Friends Authority Magazine is starting a new series about

Young People Changing Our World. Full description here
https://bit.ly/3mzPiiq

Our society is going through a rough time right now. But
amazingly, so many young people have now taken initiative to
help make our world a bit better.

We would love to feature young leaders - teen leaders, and
twenty something leaders - who have taken initiative to make a
positive change in our society. It can either be through a local
grassroots initiative, a non profit organization, or a business
that has a social impact angle. We would love to discuss their
vision for the better world that they would like to help create,
and the steps needed to make that happen.

The interview series will have two stages.

All of the full interviews will be published in Arianna
Huffington's Thrive Global and Authority Magazine, and they will
look like the following:

featuring the ideas from the best interviews will be submitted

The Buzzfeed article will look similar to this:

Individuals who are accepted for this series will be featured in
at least 2 - 4 articles.

Yitzi Weiner and Penny Bauder will be the primary leads for the
series. Most interviews will not require phone interviews and
can be done by email. Requirements:

Deadline: 8:00 PM EST - 9 November

Query:

Good afternoon,

I hope this email finds you well. My name is Julia Guerra and I
am a beauty writer with Business INSIDER. I am currently
working on a piece for the site, reviewing the best lampless gel
nail polish, and am looking for either a nail artist or
technician to speak on the following:

1. Can you specify the difference between a gel nail polish that
requires a lamp, and gel nail polish that gives the same effect
without UV light? What are some key differences in the formulas
that make it possible to get this effect without UV light?

2. What are some of the main benefits to using lampless gel nail
polish vs using a lamp? Is this a healthier alternative?

3. Do these lampless gel polishes have a different effect on
nails than traditional polish? Explain.

4. Explain to our readers how they can identify a quality
lampless gel polish. For example, how long should the manicure
last without chipping? How long should it take to dry? Can you
detect the quality of a polish by the way it smells?

Requirements:

I am looking for feedback by the end of the day, 8pm EST. Please
send any and all feedback to jhorniac@gmail.com.

Media Outlet: Green Flower Media

Deadline: 9:00 AM EST - 12 November

With so much focus on Canada, the U.S. and Mexico, one may need

what may be upcoming in each region.

Please provide written analysis to any of the following:

- We often hear the discussion about cannabis legalization from
the view of North America. What other parts of the world could
be seen as leaders or emerging areas for reform? - Is the focus
rightfully on North America? - What's motivating global reform?
What are the primary factors for most nations? - What can be
made of New Zealand's ballot question failing to pass? - The
North American market does continue to heat up as well. What can
be made of activity in Mexico and post-election U.S. state
markets?
