DDP News & Quick Tips
More than a Facelift -
But What a Facelift it Is!
DDP Website Home Page Cropped 

We're excited to announce the update of our website. It's much more than a facelift - more like a total re-launch. Here are a few of the many new features you'll find: 

  • A blog that provides industry news and software tips at least weekly. Sign up to receive the blog via RSS feed or by email.You'll see we're using both text and video to provide tips. 
  • The Tips & Tricks tab sorts blog tips by software program.  
  • The Resources tab provides links to essential products and services - some for aids we've created and others to vendors we use and recommend.

There's more, but you'll have to explore it yourself. Grab a cup of tea and spend a few minutes getting to know the new www.DataDesignsPublishing.com!

Drinks and Appetizers are on Us!
The Melrose Grill  

Our eNewsletter needs a new name! And we need a night out! Thought we'd combine the two - we'll provide the drinks and appetizers, you provide the good company and maybe some good ideas. Drinks, appetizers and friendly brainstorming will commence at 5pm on Wednesday, April 11, at the Melrose Grille at Mapleside Farms in Brunswick.  

 

Let me repeat - Yes, you're invited! Yes, it's our treat. Email Sandy Hooper to let her know you're coming. We'll be there until about 7pm, so don't be shy about joining us late.

 

Hope you'll join us! Learn more here. >>
