Your E-mail Signature is a Silent Salesman
If you’re in business of any kind, your e-mail signature can be an even better “silent salesman” than your business signage, because it’s not fixed in one spot. You might think it’s only for business correspondence. Many real estate professionals have a signature with their name, the name of the company, a phone number, and [...]

Unsubscribes that don’t… how rude!

There are always a few – but today was like being on Pend Oreille Lake the first morning of the Fall Fishing Derby! But instead of boat-to-boat it was email-to-email.

What kind of ezines do you read?
My question for the day is a reaction to the ezines in my mailbox. There are some I love, and read clear through. John Forde’s for example. And then others I scan through, trying to see if there’s something good, and delete. The difference for me: Some have a good story or some good advice, [...]

First a note to Suzane – Sure, I would be glad to review your books and post a comment. I can’t promise you how fast I’ll get it done, though! If you want those links posted on the site for all to go review, let me know. I thought perhaps they were for sale, so [...]
