Today, all of that has changed. […]

Maintain Long-term Customers with Virtual Office Websites

Part Five of a Five part series “Roadmap to using VOWs in your business.” In this fifth of a series of five articles about Virtual Office Websites or VOW’s we are going to discuss the ways to use a VOW to work more effectively with past clients.

New Problems emerge in mortgage bailout

This is the beginning of an article found on Blown Mortgage that frames this discussion quite well…. “Stimulus funds need to be infused into the economy as quickly and efficiently as possible in order to stimulate growth,” said David Williams, leader of Deloittes Financial Advisory Services practice. “However, the legislative process as well as the publics desire for transparency surrounding how stimulus funds are allocated do not bode well for getting stimulus funds into the economy quickly.” That isnt happening, according to the Wall Street Journal. In fact, the Wall Street Journal reports the largest banks receiving Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP, funds actually offered [...]
