many commercial businesses in the
area
2. Having a fully interactive web site to
take advantage of on line enquiries
and sales
3. Having regular leaflet drops with
special offers

eliminate the wages cost, which is
currently duplicated

hardware and janitorial products

back on the rent and rates cost.
