      There never was hard copy of The Big Book of Window Display available, because it’s many pages of full-color illustrations… and would cost you WAY too much. Using the Internet to distribute such publications is the tree-friendly way to do it: Read our Product on-screen or print it out as a single copy so you can read it in bed, either way, saves our planet’s ecology! You can get your copy Pretty Darn Quick here: http://tgtbt.com/shopbuild.htm#2, and hey, even the Post Office will save gas!

    Kate, you sure know how to market yourself and your products-it’s no wonder you are such a success! Thank you for all your wonderful tips, hints and products!

      That’s a real compliment coming from you! I STILL follow your sage branding advise from that workshop you did when? Scottsdale? Maybe we could get you to write a blog post on that! Of course, my marketing needs improvement, since not everyone lists their shops on HowToConsign.com, not even folks in heavily-touristed locationsKWIM
