The

of "convenient" outdoor lounging.

because it allows users to set their own comfort level, and allows the
product to fold down for travel and storage. Other products in this category
do not offer this feature.

IS EMAIL MARKETING NEXT FOR EXTINCTION?
Web 2.0 could change business communications forever
The most frequent criticism I’ve heard about the new Apple iPhone is that it
‘doesn’t handle email too well’, as least not when compared to a Blackberry.
When you look at the iPhone home screen you get an idea why. Email is there,
of course, but so is YouTube and SMS, and usually the free applications for
Facebook and MySpace Mobile.
Why would Apple apparently place so little emphasis on email? The answer is
simple. For the young consumer, email isn’t the primary communications
channel that it is in the business world. A friend of mine who is the
Principal of a school in Sweden tried to email the school list but got very
little response. When he asked his pupils why they hadn’t replied, the most
common answer was that they hadn’t read his email.
Young people don’t communicate that much via email anymore. They don’t
devote time to checking their emails and so the feedback on sent emails is
slow and indirect. They prefer to communicate via faster and more direct
ways such as SMS, online communities and web messaging.

The Skinny on Slim Jims (ACMA November
2008 Update)
Many catalogers are trying to determine what to do with slim jims. You have
received several previous reports from us on slim jims, and we promised to
provide an update this fall. (“Slim jims” is industry slang for digest sized
catalogs, folded self-mailers and slim-tabbed catalogs that are expected to
ride on the USPS’s automated letter sorting equipment and thereby get an
automated letter rate—a substantial discount to the traditional catalog or
“flats” postage rates.)
First, a brief historical background: Recall that the PRC suggested
catalogers simply convert to a slim jim format as a lower cost alternative
to the sharply higher catalog mailing rates that became effective in summer
2007 in the wake of the disastrous R2006-1 rate increases. While many
catalogers did not want to address the cost and brand implications of
reformatting their books, some did; predictably, the volume of slim jims in
the mail stream increased.

Mailing and Contact Lists of Catalog
Companies.
Do you have something to sell to catalog companies? If so, there are two
ways to get the contact information you need.
One: If the type of catalog does not matter to you, then the purchase
of the National
Directory of Catalogs would be a good fit for you.
Two: If you only sell to a specific type of catalog, for example
"Catalogs that sell Tools and Hardware" you can find all the major catalogs
by specific category using the
MediaFinder Catalog Search Tool.
You can also get on-line subscription access to the entire catalog database,
along with access to Newspapers, Magazines, Newsletters and Journals if you
need it. 6 month and yearly subscriptions available. If interested in this,
send your name & company, address, and phone number to
cindy@nmoa.org and we'll get you the
details and pricing information. |

3 Lessons Kids Teach You About Business Success
“My see,” were the words my two-year-old daughter Maggie used last week as
she extended her arms toward an older woman sitting in the window seat on a
spring break flight to Mexico last week. The adult translation of those
words is, “Excuse me ma’am, your window seat is better than my middle seat.
I would really love to climb over this armrest, jump on your lap and hang
out with you for a few minutes so I can look out that window. You good with
that?” This woman was obviously well-versed in the ancient language of baby
babble, and knew exactly what Maggie was saying. She pulled up the armrest,
held out her arms and without hesitation, Maggie plopped onto her lap. They
then began cloud gazing while getting to know each other.
