Marketing Tips - Tip of the Week

If you have a web site
include your web site address on ALL marketing materials.

Internet Tips - Tip of the Week

If you wish to print text information from a WEB SITE....
use your mouse to select the text you wish to print and COPY and PASTE the text into your word processing package. Print the word processing file instead of the web site page.

This is also a great step if you wish to include this text in a letter or e-mail you are typing.....LESS typing is better typing.
