(back) Subject: It's Here! It's Here! From: Susan Kalish <[email protected]> Date: Mon, 22 Dec 1997 18:22:45 -0400 The long-awaited HPA Retail Sales Training Program is now in the hands of the HPA staff and is ready for shipping. If you haven't already purchased this training package, you are missing out! The package contains over 3 hours of presentations and role-plays on effective techniques for selling hearth products on the showroom floor on video-tape. The program was customized for HPA by The Harry Friedman Group, the #1 retail sales expert. Harry takes the process of selling, breaks down the process into a number of skills, then provides information and demonstrations on each of the skills. Supporting manuals and workbooks enable your sales staff to read and understand the concepts and work with the sales manager or store owner to learn and improve these skills. The best part is that this training package is priced to show you how your HPA dues dollar works for you. The price of the HPA package to HPA members is $149 plus $15 shipping/handling. The Friedman Group sells a generic package for $495. If you would like more information or want to order your set, please contact me. I will be happy to take your credit card number over the phone or send you an order form to include with your check. I can be reached at 703-522-0086, fax 703-522-0548 or e-mail, [email protected]. Stay ahead of your competition! Contact me today! (Webmasters Note - I'm ordering one right away..this is a sweet deal ! )
(back) Subject: Craig gets Windows 95 ! From: Craig Issod <[email protected]> Date: Mon, 22 Dec 1997 19:11:15 -0400 For those of you who know I'n a dedicated "Mac" guy, this may come as a surprise....But I have a Windows Machine with a Pentium MMX processor, CD ROM, Sound Blaster and all the other goodies....... and..the Machine cost me less than 150 bucks.. Now that I have your attention, let me admit that I simply bought VirtualPC, a software program that runs on a fast Powermac and makes it emulate, 100% in software, a Windows system. In addition, it comes with a fully licensed copy of Windows 95 - or it can run NT, DOS, etc. I'm using this only to see how Web pages look to the "other side" , since I do all development on Macs. It can emulate any of the Video modes that Windows uses. Really wierd seeing that Windows screen booting up in a window on my Mac. I can, of course, switch between Windows and Mac in an instant. I've surfed the Net, Played Quicktime and RealPlayer movies and sent and received email from the "other side" of Windows.... I won't be switching my productivity software to W95. It's my feeling that the MS crew has to go back to "Human Interface Engineering" school. I mean C'mon now - what the heck is a "Briefcase" supposed to represent on a computer desktop... and "My Computer" ? - I thought I was already on my computer... Anyway, for any of you with Macs and fast PPC processors (over 132 MHZ), this is one interesting piece of software. ------------------------------------------------------ Craig Issod HearthNet at http://www.hearth.com [email protected] Everything your Hearth Desires ------------------------------------------------------ Buddha says "avoid error" ------------------------------------------------------
