Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Create valuable email content. Create valuable website content. Use social media to share the valuable content. Post a "Join our Mailing List" box on your homepage and email signatures. Host a contest. Remain consistent.

Answer: Make a monthly newsletter that tells potential customers something that they may want to share on social media or with their friends. Include social media links and a "Forward to a Friend" button on your HTML email program, such as Mail Chimp. Try a tutorial, expert tips or industry trend information. Ask experts in your company to craft these emails. The best way to increase an email list is to create quality content that is only accessible by people who have an account. The customer will give you their email in exchange for free, valuable content. Create a landing page on which you can capture users and sign up new accounts. Once the account is created, the landing page should lead to the content. You may need to enlist the services of a web programmer to do this. Valuable website content may be in the form of an eBook, video, tutorial, free template or free download. Announce the free content offer on social media sites, your website, monthly emails, in print ads and in Google ads or other links. Start a Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and/or Instagram account. Share your valuable content and lead people to the landing page on your website. Your email program may provide you with a coded button that will allow people to enter their emails to sign up for your list. If you are sending out valuable content, new people will want to join your list. Create a landing page where people can enter the contest by providing their email. Make sure you have a valuable prize and that you follow contest legal guidelines that are dictated by state commerce agencies. You must keep a schedule of sending valuable information to your email list in order to keep the list growing. Once you are set up to capture emails through your website, social media accounts and email management program, you can move on to more advanced list-building strategies.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Begin harvesting your lettuce 30-45 days after planting. Harvest your lettuce in the morning. Cut off the outer leaves. Refrigerate your lettuce for 5-8 days after harvesting. Harvest your lettuce again in about 2 weeks.

Answer: On average, lettuce takes about 30-45 days after you plant the seeds to mature. Make a note on your calendar to begin harvesting after about 30 days has passed. Indoor lettuce plants grow and mature continually, so you can continue harvesting your plant after you've picked it for the first time. Mature indoor lettuce usually grows to about 4 inches (10cm) tall. See How to Harvest Romaine Lettuce for specific instructions relating to this type of lettuce. Morning is when your plant's most hydrated and at its strongest. If possible, harvest your plant before the late morning or afternoon to attain a healthier yield. If you can't harvest in the morning, avoid mid-to-late afternoon, which is when your plant's least hydrated. Do not harvest your indoor lettuce plant all at once. As long as you continue taking care of it, you can harvest it for several months. Cut 3-4 of the outer leaves at a time with garden shears or scissors, leaving the rest of the plant to heal and grow back later on. Avoid picking the lettuce's crown or center. Limit yourself to the outer leaves to boost its overall harvesting yield. Depending on the variety, lettuce can last anywhere between 3-10 days in the refrigerator. Check how long your specific variety lasts for and, after placing the lettuce in the fridge, plan to use it by its expiration date. If you don't think you'll use your lettuce in 5-8 days, wait a few days before harvesting your plant. Your plant requires about 2 weeks to heal and grow more leaves before it is ready to harvest again. After your first time harvesting, wait 2 weeks in-between harvesting to keep your plant healthy and able to grow more leaves. Wait at least 2 weeks before harvesting young plants, which may take time to grow strong after being harvested. Sow additional seeds every 2 weeks to extend your harvest.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Avoid stressful or emotional conversations while driving. Make sure children and pets are secure. Keep snacks or toys where your passengers can access them. Ask passengers to respect that you're driving. Pull over when you can't avoid a distraction.

Answer: Even if you are looking directly at the road as you drive, you can become mentally distracted, which will prevent you from reacting to obstacles that appear in front of you as you drive. If a passenger brings up a subject you feel strongly about, wait until you've parked the vehicle to discuss the topic. Difficult conversations can distract the driver from things that occur on the road. It can be difficult to pay attention when experiencing strong emotions. Before setting off on a journey of any length, make sure children are safely strapped and secured in car seats and any animals in the vehicle are safely placed where they cannot interfere with or distract your driving. If your dog is restless, put it inside the boot and have a barrier installed between the back seat and the boot ao that it cannot jump over. For extra security, put in in a cage; but ensure it has access to drinking water and gets to stretch it's legs once you stop the car. Have a rest break if embarking on a long journey, and take the dog a walk aswell. Small dogs and similar-sized pets should be kept off of the driver's lap while driving to avoid distractions. Cage them so they don't jump around. Make sure all children are wearing their seat belts and unable to move freely within the vehicle to cause distractions. Children will often fuss if they do not have access to their usual snacks or toys during a car journey. If you have a passenger that may create a distraction, make sure they have everything they need prior to setting off on a trip. Keep snacks or toys within the reach of children so they don't attempt to unbuckle their seat belts or leave car seats. If your vehicle is fitted with a child lock, use it so that the children can't open it from the inside. Reaching around the car to get snacks or pass things to a child can be extremely dangerous while driving. If there are several passengers, you can ensure that another passenger will cater to the needs of the children (eg. snacks, toys, cleaning up) so as to take the worry off the driver. If you are driving with other people in the vehicle, ask that they respect the fact that you would like to drive without distraction. This means passengers should remain in their seats, not move around the vehicle, not play loud music, and not try to gain your attention while you're driving. Passengers should not attempt to distract you or gain your attention while driving; unless it is an emergency. Passengers should remain buckled up and seated while you drive. If something comes up that is unavoidable, such as an important telephone call or a discussion that requires the driver's full attention, simply pull over to avoid allowing the distraction to become dangerous. Pulling over on the side of the road to take phone calls or engage in discussions is safer than doing so as you drive. Using a mobile phone behind the wheel is illegal in many jurisdictions/countries. You can get a hefty fine and/or a driving ban as a result of being caught. Use a hands-free kit or switch your phone off before driving to be extra safe. On many highways, there are rest stops specifically for the sake of phone calls or other things a driver may need to do whilst on the road.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Plan for a weight plateau or stall. Start a journal. Find a diet buddy. Get enough sleep. Reduce stress

Answer:
Many people will experience one or a few stalls in their weight loss. This is normal and to be expected so don't give up on your plan. Weight stalls are when you've been actively losing weight and for a week or more you notice that your weight has not decreased. There are a variety of reasons behind weight stalls. Review your exercise patterns, food journal if you've been keeping one and any other lifestyle habits. If you've been slacking at exercise or snacking more than usual, this may be the cause of your weight stall; however, even if you've stayed 100% on track, it can be normal to experience a stall. When you've hit a weight plateau, ensure you're sticking to your plan and be patient. As your body adjusts to your new weight, you should see your weight loss restart. Any big lifestyle change can be difficult to follow long-term. Journaling can help you keep track of your progress and be a place to vent frustrations or write about exciting progress. Studies have shown that journaling can help dieters in a variety of ways. Keeping track of your food will help keep you accountable. Also, seeing your progress can be a motivating factor to keep you on track. Dieting can get lonely, especially if the people around you lead unhealthy lifestyles. Having a friend to diet and exercise with can help you stay motivated and actually make dieting fun. Ask friends of family members to help you stay accountable. Share with them your diet, exercise, and lifestyle plan. You may feel less tempted to slip up around people who know what your goals are. It might also be a good idea to go through weight loss together. Studies have shown that when you exercise or diet together with friends, this support group helps everyone involved be more successful long-term. Adults should be getting seven to nine hours of sleep per night. Being tired can impact your weight in multiple ways: you are more likely to make bad decisions when tired (like getting a pizza instead of something healthy); you may be more likely to go for late-night, carb-heavy snacks; you may crave junk food; and on top of that, you may lack the energy to exercise. . When you are stressed, your body releases a hormone called cortisol, which tells your body to conserve energy (i.e., hang on to fat). If you're exercising, that's a great way to bust stress, but look into other methods as well. Consider yoga, meditation, positive visualization, going for a walk in nature, laughing with a friend, or doing something creative to help reduce your stress.
