What is Car Donation?
A car can be just as valuable to a person emotionally as it is in terms of transportation. However, when a vehicle gets old, fond memories should not be enough to hold onto it. This is because trying to maintain an older vehicle can be very expensive if a person does not know how to refurbish it on their own. Instead, a car owner should consider a better alternative: donating their car to a charity or another organization that can refurbish the vehicles themselves. The refurbished vehicle is then given to disadvantaged individuals, whose lives become transformed by having their own means of transportation.
When a car donation center receives a car, they will inspect it to see how many repairs need to be done to get it in working condition. They will then refurbish it (if they can). The vehicle will then be sold to charitable organizations. These organizations will either use the vehicles for their business or give them away to needy individuals. If a car is unable to be refurbished, its parts may be sold to manufacturers.
The other option available for car donation is doing everything by oneself. This means that the car owner would have to find the organizations interested in receiving their donated vehicle along with making towing arrangements. To find organizations desirous of donated cars, a car owner can look online, in their local newspaper or through circulars like the Pennysaver.
If they have a particular organization they would prefer to donate to they could always call them and see if they're interested. Either way, once the car owner has decided who they're going to donate to, they have to send the vehicle out to them. In many cases, the organization will arrange for towing. Otherwise, the car owner must do what is necessary to transport the donated car.
For the car owner, whether they decide to donate through a car donation company or do things themselves, there's a possibility the donation could earn them a tax deduction. To receive this deduction, car owners must get a sales receipt from the organization they did business with. They will then send this receipt with their tax return. The deduction will be done on the basis of what the charity was able to sell the vehicle for, though there are exceptions. For example, if donated cars are integral to a charity's business, a car owner may be able to deduct at full market value.
What does a person do if they want to access to a donated vehicle? They will have to find the organizations that are giving them away. But things won't be as easy as making a request for a vehicle; most car donation companies have very long waiting lists for people anxious to receive one of their vehicles. Additionally, one must prove they are disadvantaged enough to be 'deserving' of one of the vehicles. A person will be competing with thousands of others who are also in need. However, if their story is compelling enough they will be granted the vehicle free of charge. Even towing will usually be taken care of. So, ultimately, it is worth at least trying, even if the chances of actually receiving the vehicle are low

PPC Search Management
Pay-per-click (PPC) advertising programs offer online advertisers an immediate way to generate qualified web site traffic by buying sponsored links at Yahoo Sponsored Search, Google AdWords, Microsoft adCenter and other 2nd-tier syndicated ad networks. When sponsored links are accepted in the ad networks, they appear on the search result pages of Yahoo!, Google, Windows Live Search and a variety of other syndicated partner search engines.
To get listed in the pay-per-click sponsored listings, advertisers first set up an account at the pay-per-click ad networks. Once an account has been established, advertisers bid against each other through an auction style bidding system for ranking on keyword phrases in the sponsored ad listings. A combination of bid-per-click price and ad click-through rate achieves a certain placement on the search result pages at Yahoo.com, Windows Live Search, Google.com, AOL Search and other syndicated ad network partner sites. Advertisers have a high degree of control over the amount they are willing to bid for each keyword and their position in the listings, although on Google AdWords, Yahoo Sponsored Search and Microsoft adCenter advertisers can't control whether they're in the top positions simply by boosting their payment per click.
Technically, pay-per-click listings or sponsored links are free and advertisers only pay for clicks (visitors) they receive from the search engine listing. The exact position of the sponsored links on the search result page may vary from engine-to-engine. Sometimes they appear above or to the right of the unpaid natural or organic listings, at other times, they appear at the bottom.

Contract Management, Drafting and Review
Many law departments cannot devote sufficient resources to draft, review, and manage contracts. This can lead to poor service for business unit clients. Moreover, companies that cannot meet the demand for contract advice and edits create real risks:
Unapproved contract changes can create unwanted obligations
Proliferation in language variations may increase the chances of inadvertent breaches
Key dates for renewal or price escalation may be missed
Even law departments lucky enough to have contract management software typically need more human resources. Integreon helps companies solve this problem by providing dedicated teams of outsourced lawyers, onshore or offshore
Our lawyers draft, review, and manage high-volume, routine contracts. This can reduce cost by 50% and allow inhouse lawyers to focus on higher value work. We work with clients to define requirements, establish drafting and review standards and ensure you are comfortable with all processes and staffing. Relying on an Integreon dedicated team of onshore and offshore lawyers offers many benefits:
Smooth Workflows: Our proprietary ShareDocs workflow software makes it easy to submit and review contracts. We maintain a database of all submissions and changes plus a complete audit trail.
Lower Costs: Offshore lawyers can cost as little as 50% of what onshore lawyers cost.
Confidentiality & Continuous Operations: We operate world-class facilities with state-of-the-art security. A combination of physical and virtual measures protect your data and have earned ISO 27001 security certification. Numerous back-up systems ensure continuous operations.
Manage Rights and Obligations: We help you manage contracts by summarizing executed contracts, identifying key terms and dates, and populating or creating a database. This helps make sure you fulfill obligations and take advantage of your rights.
Better Service to Inhouse Clients and Lower Risk: With our global delivery platform, we can provide coverage around the clock and faster turnaround. So business people are more likely to submit contracts for review.
Improve Inhouse Lawyer Morale: We free up inhouse lawyers from routine, low-value work. In-house lawyers will no longer be buried under a mountain of contracts requests so their job satisfaction improves. This can reduce your turnover in critical in-house legal positions.
