Hi All:

In today's Business Tips we have the second part of Accounting and 
Administration tips to help you improve your net profit.   By using 
some cost-saving tactics, the resultant savings go right to the 
bottom line.   We have been using tactics like this for over three 
decades at many clients, and they work.

Next week we will look at cost saving tips with technology.  Then it 
will be on to operations and sales.  We hope they will benefit your 
organization.

A new list member needs some information on e-commerce trends and we 
found some interesting statistics and sources which we reported in 
Member Posts.

Now, let's get to everything for the retailer.


Sincerely
