Greetings!
This Valentine's Day consumers will spend an estimated $15.7 billion on expressions of love. That's an 11% increase over last year, according to the National Retail Federation, and another indication that we're pulling out of the economic slump.
Many say Valentine's Day is just a Hallmark holiday - a ploy to get Americans to spend more money. While it may be true, it's good for business. And, despite the pressure to buy gifts, it reminds us to acknowledge the people we love and appreciate - something that isn't done often enough.
So, in case we haven't told you lately...
ABC Computers LOVES you!
We do. We love and appreciate you very much. Based on the ABC customer testimonials we've received, we know you love us back. It makes my heart smile.
If you're not feeling the love from your IT service provider, call me at 800-834-7700 right away. ABC strives to build relationships based on honesty, open communication and mutual success. We work hard to earn and keep our customers' business. We may even bring you chocolate and flowers once in a while. Sincerely,
Donavan Lane, CEO
ABC Computers, Inc.
P.S. It turns out that flowers and chocolate aren't the only big sellers for Valentine's Day. There's also spyware. According to USA Today, the use of tracking devices and private investigators surge around this holiday. Apparently, it's an opportune time to catch a cheating spouse. (The things you learn while conducting research.) |

New Legal Reasons Why All Businesses Need an E-mail Archiving & Management System | |
It's a classic he-said, she-said case that ends up in court on a daily basis...
Widget buyer Ms. Robinson testified that Mr. Smith, the Widgets Corp. sales manager, told her that if she put her order in immediately, the price would be discounted by 20 percent. Mr. Smith argued that that was not what he said.
According to his testimony, he agreed to give a 20 percent discount only if Ms. Robinson ordered at least one million widgets, which she did not. The widgets were manufactured and delivered, and the client was billed for the full amount. The client is refusing to pay the full amount and the manufacturing company is throwing it to a collection agency. If brought into a court of law, who would be right? |
