    Designing and Printing Catalogs
    There are 2 different kinds of popular catalogs used for merchandising. There are online catalogs that provide easy access using the internet, and there are printed catalogs that are used for mail-orders. Mail order is a means of purchasing products and services through mail. Though online catalogs are cheaper to set-up, there are many disadvantages of using this method of advertising. First of which is that it poses security issues. There are many cases of online theft and hacking; customers might be wary and hesitant to order given that this form of thievery is rampant. Dial-up users will have difficulty with trying to access these online catalogs. This might frustrate customers and end up causing losses in potential customers for the companies. Customers will not be able to test products. Online catalogs are impersonal and it fails to make the same kind of impression as a print

    Phonewords - 13, 1300 And 1800 Numbers As Marketing Tools
    In the Concise Oxford Dictionary, image is described as "the character or reputation of a person or thing as generally perceived". A first impression based on non-verbal communication goes a long way in influencing this perception. Within seconds of meeting you, based on a single observed physical trait or behavior, people will assume to know everything about you (as is explained in the 2003 book Social Psychology by H. Andrew Michener, John D. Delamater, and Daniel J. Myers). Furthermore, according to research by Dr. Albert Mehrabian of UCLA, appearance and body language (visual image) accounts for fifty-five percent of an invaluable first impression.In short your visual presentation has consequences.Phonewords can change your business number into an instantly recognized business tool.

    Name plates are used to display names and titles. They are used in houses, offices, meetings, conferences, training centers, dinners, product name displays, etc. Name plates serve as an identification mark. These give a professional look. Sizes of name plates vary according to the number of words necessary to satisfy the consumer.Name plates can be made at home using household materials.

    Current numbers from this survey indicate that most businesses are in a lot of trouble when it comes to their “customer e-service.” Twenty-six percent of retailers surveyed failed to respond to e-mail inquiries from customers seeking to make a purchase.

    In the same study, conducted by Benchmark Portal and sponsored by eGain Communications Corp., the cross-industry response rate (all verticals) of 41 percent shows that businesses in general have a pretty abysmal record. Forty-seven percent of retailers, for example, fail to respond to customer e-mails within 24 hours, against a cross-industry rate of only 61 percent.

    Conducted in July 2005, this study also benchmarked the quality of company responses to client e-mail inquiries. Among companies that do respond to client or customer e-mails, 35 percent of retailers sent e-mails rated by Benchmark Portal as "good" at answering customers’ questions while the cross-industry rate is a sad 17 percent. Twenty-eight percent of retailers sent e-mails rated "fair," compared to a cross-industry rate of 26 percent; and nine percent of retailers sent "poor" e-mails, compared to the cross-industry rate of 14 percent.
