Get to work on America

thelimey — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 01:42:18 +0000

The hard work, determination and skilled, unbending labor of those who came here before us built this country into the focus of envy felt by those not so blessed as to live here.

Buy American, create jobs and soon enough we’ll find economic distress nowhere else but a newspaper’s files.

Can you increase sales by going back in time?

thelimey — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 22:47:55 +0000

Despite losing almost $2.5-billion dollars in the third quarter of 2009, the USPS mail service still offers the most persuasive way to get your sales message across.

Emails can be deleted with a click, their contents unseen. But an envelope in your hand is far harder to treat with such shallow concern. Most of your competitors go the email route, so if your brochures are tactile who’ll win the prize?

And it’s not just brochures – The better online stores offer catalogs, door hangers, postcard printing, business cards and dozens more ways to get your message noticed – and turn your competitors green.

New sales are the lifeblood of all business, and what some less insightful people might tell you is ‘old-fashioned’ tech can still score more new sales than you think. Check out your options and you may soon be convinced…
