The Effective Admin Quick Reference Series:
Each item in this series is created in the format of a
three-panel folded pamphlet. Each is a single 8 1/2" x 11"
page that you print in landscape view on both sides of the paper and then fold in thirds.
These are PDF files -- digital downloads. Quantity Discounts Available:
If you purchase 2 to 25 of a single title, it's 50% off ($1.00) that
publication; if you
purchase 26 or more of a single title, it's 75% off ($0.50) that publication. You'll be able to see
the discounts applied in your shopping cart.
Buy these for
yourself (at $2.00 each) or use the quantity discounts to buy these in bulk
for distribution to your employees (or students or clients/customers). That includes if you're teaching a class
on site at your company such as by employers' training, learning and
development departments or individual administrative professionals leading
classes for your employer. These will make great handouts or supplementary resources for
classes. I also can work with companies placing large bulk orders
that want to co-brand the back panel of the pamphlets for company
customization purposes prior to distributing to your employees, students,
clients or customers.
Samples: There are no free samples of
the publications below. If you want to see one before you buy many, then buy
just one pamphlet for yourself (at $2.00 each).
