  • 229 Hot Places to Run Your Classified Ad Classified Advertising Is a Proven Method
    THE FPA GUIDE AND 229 HOT PLACES TO RUN YOUR CLASSIFIED AD CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING IS A PROVEN METHOD The FPA Guide is book of companies that have products or services for sale to the federal government. Classified advertising has always been, and will continue to be the favorite method for Mail Order "Pros" to advertise. Almost all Mail Order Pros started with these tiny inexpensive ads since they represent the best cost effective way to reach millions of people. But, smart small business owners that selling to the federal government is one of the most profitable ways to get business coming in the door. It can be difficult to learn how to get contracts with the federal government, but the FPA Guide is the answer to all that messy paperwork. It's s common misconception that all government jobs have to go to the lowest bidder, but that's not entirely accurate. You see, when a government agency needs to procure a product or service under a certain amount of money, their procurement specialists turn to the FPA Guide, a handbook of companies that advertise their products in services within. It's much easier than trying to find and fill out all the paperwork. TWO BASIC METHODS Two basic methods are used with classified advertising. (1) Place an ad offering FREE literature, and then send your literature to all inquiries. A "free" offer will always out pull an ad that requests money, but your overall profits may be larger since you will generate more inquiries. This method is excellent when you are also collecting "Opportunity Seeker" names that you can rent.

In 1933, and again in 1934, upon recommendation of the standing committee to keep the standard abreast of progress, revisions were adopted and issued as CS 12-33 and CS 12-35, respectively. On February 25, 1938, at the recommendation of the standing com- mittee, a revision of CS12-35, drafted by Technical Committee E of American Society for Testing Materials Committee D-2, was cir- culated for acceptance. The industry has since accepted and ap- proved for promulgation by the United States Department of Com- merce, through the National Bureau of Standards, the revised standard as shown herein. The standard became effective for new production on May 31, 1938, subject to the expiration of the then existing contracts.

"I wish to thank everybody for giving me the opportunity to do this job up here," said Deputy Rory VanDeusen at the dedication ceremony. He and his wife, Joyce, and their seven-month-old son, Scott, plan to move in this Thursday. Also on hand for the dedication was Miriam Johnson, who had previously lived in the house with her late husband, Belton Johnson. She told the crowd that when she was preparing to move out she had hoped the house would not be destroyed and could be put to a good use. That is why she donated it to the Captiva Civic Association. "All this is in answer to a prayer," said Mrs. Johnson, 'The house meant so much to us." She said she was glad that a fine young couple were moving into it and "I hope they will be as happy and as blessed in this house as Belton and I were." The house was moved last year from its old location on Captiva Drive near 'Tween Waters to its new location Please see HOUSE, page 13A A number of officials participated in the ribbon cutting ceremony at the new deputy's house.

    Manhattan Offi ce Market 2 ND QUARTER 2015 REPORT A NEWS RECAP AND MARKET SNAPSHOT Pictured: 1001 Avenue of the Americas Looking Ahead Partnership for New York City: New York’s Future as the World Financial Capital The report released in June concluded that while New York City remains the preferred location of global fi nancial companies to establish their headquarters, there is a growing trend to relocate jobs and business operations to lower cost, more business-friendly locations that are beyond the city’s border. A comprehensive survey was conducted in collaboration with Gerson Lehrman Group (GRG), intending to better understand how the fi nancial industry is evolving; and what measures are required to solidify New York’s competitive advantage as a global fi nancial center. Collected data represents an overview of the responses from 50-fi rm respondents that included large banks, insurance companies and asset managers, private equity fi rms, hedge funds, and fi nancial technology (FinTech) startups; and represent about 1/3rd of the total industry employment in the city. Additionally, observations were included from 8-real estate fi rms that were surveyed; along with interviews from other related experts in the fi eld. Financial Industry – an economic snapshot • Contributes 20% of the city’s economic output, representing twice that of the next top-grossing industry. • Accounts for nearly 1/3rd of the city’s private sector payroll, despite accounting for only 8%, or about 310,000 of the city’s private sector jobs in 2013; of which 23,000 jobs are high-technology in the areas of software, data processing and network management.
