Was us USHER? or RUSHER? or sometihing like that. Whoever it was i reuested a catalog via mail and Let me guess.....Mouser? http://www.mouser.com/ Most parts companies don't issue catalogs anymore; you'll need to check their web site. Mouser sent me a couple of catalogs, the last probably sometime last year. When I received no more, I assumed that it was because I hadn't ordered anything from them. Their catalog is on line, but they don't have everything: I found stuff in the Newark Electronics catalog that wasn't in Mouser's. Then there's DigiKey as well. "Perce" (aka Alan NV8A) Recently did a web order by phone with Mouser and about 3 weeks later, un announced and un needed, received the catalog in the mail! 73, Steve, K9DCI Its marketing 101.... *any* order or correspondence gets you on their mailing list. Same thing with my customers.... I always gat a name, address, and phone number immediately after "Hello". From then on out, for up to 5 years, they are in my database and get fliers, mailers, post cards, etc with the special de-jour. One of the best tricks is to send out cards to *all* of the folks in the data base with a discount coupon on renewal of their service agreement. You say you don't have a service agreement?? , no problem, we will give you the discount as an "introductory offer", when can we schedule you for a complete heating/cooling system perfoemance evaluation? It works a whole lot better than folks think.... and you still got the catalog to look through for your next order :-) -n6ojn Steve @ Noon-Air Heating & A/C Life is what happens while you were making other plans |
