Email on line marketing program for your consideration

= =
New email on line marketing program for your consideration

I would like to introduce you to a different email advertising and marketing program. Unlike the CC program, this one is less costly and much more intuitive. This means that you can learn to do it yourself rather quickly, but it does take some time. First 100 email addresses = FREE.

In addition, depending on your level on interest, you can also join Mad Mimi as an affiliate. Send a regular email to your friends, local businesses or any one else who might need a mass emailing program. See their affiliate commission rate at the Mad Mimi site.

My affiliate link to Mad Mimi follows. This how the affiliate deal works [there is an agreement on line]. I make commissions on people who sign up if they go through My Affiliate Link shown below. If you, your friends or your leads just go directly to Mad Mimi, you make nothing. And for your benefit, you cannot advertise your affiliate program through Mad Mimi blasts. Just send them regular emails or Tweets. I have done both.

http://madmimi.com/r/ed148e0621fd22140747d13da484ba01

If you sign up for this program, please go through my link above. That way I receive a commission if and when you bump yourself up to the fee stage. Same for your possible clients.

Good luck ... jack

New 8 x 12 log offered

= =
Honest Abe Log Homes announced that they now offer a new 8 x 12 log for log homes. It is suitable for log homes in the cooler and colder climate zones North of the Mason-Dixon Line. This 8 x 12 T&G log provides more thermal mass and better insulation value. These logs have dovetail corners. Eastern White Pine is the recommended wood species.

The Honest Abe 10 inch round logs are also quite good for the Northern tier of states. These logs are done in the Swedish cope style. The purlin roof system is available as well as our standard heavy timber roof system with 4x8 Douglas Fir beams and 2x8 premium spruce T&G.

See Photo Gallery at www.LogHomesByJack.com for many exterior and interior photos.

News from Jack - update on 9/19/09

Hi from Jack,

If you have email, we have been sending your updates periodically. The latest news is that we are attending the Honest Abe dealer convention in Nashville. As usual, there will be a few announcements that may be of interest to you.

My next task is to complete the *initial estimates* for buyers we met at the Raleigh Log Homes Show. We received a number of requests for log home, timber frame home, RuStick and hybrid pricing for the floor plans they provided.

Dry in and turnkey pricing can be *estimated* but that requires more detailed discussions with you about your preferences - location, when, basement or crawl space, garage, and much more. Then we can provide a more accurate pricing.

If you have not supplied us with information about the home style you prefer with square footage, bedrooms and bathrooms, then you can email that information to me. OR you can go to my web site = www.LogHomesByJack.com = and complete the Profile. This will help us both zero in on the size factor among other things.

Thanks for staying in touch with us about your home needs. . . . jack
