Welcome to the NewsRoute eTips Newsletter
 

Dear Bob:

Each month, our eTips newsletter is filled with ideas about how you can use email profitably and effectively to build your business. Our goal is to locate interesting and relevant articles that you may not have seen in your Internet travels. Of course, some may not apply to you but we hope that you can find several useful articles each month. We have also included several websites that are just plain handy.

This month marks the additional sponsorship of Wood Street, a web design organization. Please visit their website or contact Jon Bailey for more information on how they can help you achieve your goals.

If you see articles or sites that you think might be of interest to other email aficionados, please let us know. We'd also be appreciative if you'd pass along this free newsletter to friends and associates.

Enjoy!

Bob Bailey

E-mail to Double by 2006 - Christopher Saunders

In a recent study, the consultancy concluded that the number of e-mails sent will grow from the present level of 31 billion a day to 60 billion in just over three
