We do have punch cards for our greeting cards, but we keep them in a business card file in the store alphabetically and customers love it! they know they don't have to remember to bring it back with them and we seem to have a lot of repeat card customers. What other ways besides direct marketing is there to get new customers?? We have a mom and pop office supply,
well a dad and daughter.

Thanks for the advice. We are moving along. Business is up for us, even with construction and the economy. Thanks for all your help and encouragement. I'll send you my new website info. It should be up and running in the next couple of weeks. I can hardly wait for you to see our store pictures. We are looking good I think. My travel idea, developed at the bootcamp, is definately paying dividends. We are plugging away. Thanks again, Nan Walvoord I enjoyed reading this newletter. Thanks for the advice.

Very interesting. Look forward to seeing you again - in Colorado or Texas. Sorry we haven't been able to connect on one of your seminars. I know they've been huge successes. Thanks, Jon.
