SAVE EMPLOYEE COSTS--THE VALUE OF OUTSOURCING

As a small business owner, you know how valuable the right kind of information can be, especially when such information can save you money. But where do you find information on saving money on one of the highest business expenses--employees? The answer is in the new book "Save Employee Costs--The Value of Outsourcing," written especially for owners who need to hire someone but can't afford the expense.

We'll introduce you to competent, motivated people who are looking for ways to stay home while still working. Now you can tap into this vast resource by learning how to hire these workers whose experience and training can be valuable assets to your business.

SOMETHING YOU SHOULD KNOW

You do not have to pay outsourced workers as high a salary as you typically pay an office-based employee. Often taxes are withheld differently, employee benefit considerations are a variable, and often the outsourced employee owns his own equipment, so you don't have that expense.

No matter if you need to hire someone part-time or full-time, week days or week ends, experienced or nonexperienced, this book will walk you through the process of finding the right person to hire at the right price.

(List testimonials)

Believe me, you'll pay a bunch more if you hire the wrong person. Think of the headaches!

Doe's Legal Forms for You and Your Business

How would you like to save hundreds, perhaps thousands, in legal costs?

Do you know how to protect your legal rights as a homeowner, landlord, consumer, creditor, borrower, small business owner, employer or employee?

Can you make sure that your personal assets are protected and your family is well taken care of in case something happened to you?

How would you like to bring order to your personal affairs and make them "legally correct" so that you'll have the full protection of the law?

In this day and age, it is vitally important that our day-to-day transactions are in legal form for our own protection. No matter what your situation, you need to "get it in writing."

Let me give you some examples where a contract or agreement has to be in written form in order to be valid.

* (List 5 or more examples)

What Do Attorneys Charge?

Let's face it. Most common transactions do not require the services of an expensive attorney. (List examples)

Now you can have at your fingertips all the forms you need to carry on your day-to-day affairs and have the benefit of a written document that spells out the terms and obligations of the parties.

Don't go another day without Doe's Legal Forms. (Order information)

Government bids have an enormous impact on our business, and likely yours as well. Because government work is so important to us, I was initially reticent to believe that any promise to streamline the way we respond to bids was worth considering. Frankly, I was uncomfortable changing the way we'd done things for years.

But our controller convinced me that Doe Corporation was worth a try. There was no risk of loss. The avenues we'd traditionally used remained open. The only unknown was whether employing Doe Corporation's Internet bidding service would help us.

Despite my own skepticism, the results were:
