Changes Accompany Sam’s Sixth Season

With the start of sam101.com’s sixth season comes a whole new look for the website. I’m happy to say that the look is fun, bright and much easier to navigate than the old site.

One of my favorite features is the expanded service’s found under “Making the Right Choice.”

Speaking of the sixth season premiere – we encourage you to visit and scan our blog on subjects like branding, digital publishing, marketing and sales. One simply idea could change your business forever! Check out our archives. Peruse our testimonials. Look over our online portfolios.

Ask and ye shall receive. Hit the “contact” link and send me specific questions and I will answer them as we go. Answers are always free. Submit your project specs and receive a free no-pressure quote within 24 hours or less.

Watch our forums where we will be for sharing stories and tricks about branding, digital publishing, marketing and sales as a teaching tool for startup and small businesses by mid-year 2008.

And coming soon our calendar will be used to manage local marketing and sales seminars and networking events.

What are you waiting on – explore and enjoy!

Check back often because you are not going to want to miss all the exciting things planned for 2008!
