Mass affect on brain or mass effect on brain?

Mass mailing

I usually do a mass mailing out to those clinics/solo docs/specialists with one to two in an office - usually 100 to 150 flyers, brochures.  Then if anyone calls or if there are offices I am interested in picking up or know do have companies do their dictation, I stop by with a dozen cookies --homemade and leave with a brochure.  Gotta get past the receptionist and sometimes that is the way to do it.  I try to go at times I know the offices are not the busiest, right before afternoon hours, right before lunch, etc.  I have gotten inquiries from perhaps 5 to 7% of my mailings, which they tell me is quite high and have picked up my last two accounts from mailings/call backs, etc.  They have all stayed with me.  I have not done a mailing in close to five to six years because I have had my accounts for so long.   But that is what I did.  I am thinking of getting my nephews and on a Saturday morning putting flyers underneath office doors in several medical buildings we have that are next to the hospitals here in Portland.   Also send out to orthodontists, psychologists, counselors, podiatrists, chiropractors, etc.  If you can do digital, then send flyers out to outlying smaller cities where no one delivers or picks up.   There are accounts out there just gotta dig for them sometimes.   But be willing to do it all, pick-up, deliver, printing, envelopes, copies, to get your foot in the door and then word of mouth works very well.   Good luck.

12 cents in mass.

could mass producers be using technology? (sm)
A friend once told me (a man, of course - haha) I should be using VR personally, for my own work at a national company.  I considered it, but did not have the time (or money) to invest; however, I have noticed a couple of posts on here regarding such.  Something about the dragon- dragone, not sure what it is called, but I do think there are individuals using the technology, as employees.  I mean, why not really...

If MTs are using it personally, if it were to catch on, couldn't that cut out the work force significantly?  What if companies supplied us with it, wow, we would just be editing all day long, how hard could that be?  Lines would be gobbled up. 

Not that I am accusing this person of doing that, but if she is, it would definitely explain how there are people making huge bucks in the MT world. 

Perhaps that is what it will come down to...weeding out about 1/2 of us  ??

Perhaps she gained muscle mass SM
You can change your body compostition drastically and not lose or gain much weight if you replace a lot of fat with muscle. She said her clothes fit better so I am assuming that is what happened.  Sounds like she is doing great to me!
No...not Mass....but QA is pretty lousy
this isn't the first time I've had trouble with them.
Sten-Tel Mass. - out of work?

Anyone else with Sten-tel on the ASP platform out of work or is it just me that is sitting here twiddling my thumbs?


Talk about weapons of mass destruction! nm

I got the email in a mass mailing that was done in error
Then one of the owners of the company tried to weasel out of it in a subsequent email.

It happened. I was there, and so were you. Shame on you for trying to mislead people once again!
Good analysis. Mass mutiny, new unsuspecting
