Some of it you look forward to- most of it you delete immediately. Because it's so fast, efficient and cheap, e-mail has become an indispensable communication tool for all of us. For the same reasons, the volume of e-mail each of us receives can be difficult to handle. How do you manage the e-mail newsletters in your Inbox? What information do you rely on from these newsletters? I'd like to find out. E-mail me your name, address and phone number, and I'll call to ask you a few questions about the e-mail newsletters you use. The call will take just a few minutes. For your efforts, I'll send you a Search390.com baseball cap. The information you share will help us manage the content, frequency and subjects we cover in our e-mail newsletters and tips. Thanks in advance and have a great week.
