You know me: It's a badge of honor to no longer take care of the little stuff in your business.<BR/><BR/>I knew I was successful on the Saturday I went into the office to box up something for shipping and couldn't find enough supplies to get the job done.<BR/><BR/>Instead, I went to the UPS store and happily paid twice the price.Karl W.

This includes printing on blue 11x17 paper, the paper itself, and folding once.<BR/><BR/>We insert another page (such as the handouts on <A HREF="http://www.i5pc.com/Business_Tips.htm" REL="nofollow">www.i5pc.com</A>, then fold again, seal with a sticky thing, stamp, and mail first class.<BR/><BR/>Postage is more than the printing.<BR/><BR/>But (as always), we only have to get one hour of labor to pay for the mailing.Karl W.
