Newsletter Re-Launch

We are pleased to announce that our newsletter is being reldesigned and relaunched, after a hiatus of a little over 2 years.

The newsletter is intended to compliment Francis Wade’s blog “Chronicles from a Caribbean Cubicle”  – http://blog.fwconsulting.com

While every recipient of  the prior list will be immediately added to the list of new recipients, there have been numerous changes in addresses, and we are accepting new subscribers by simply sending email to:  [email protected]
You can find the front pages of some of our past newsletters by clicking on the FWC Quarterly link at the far right of this page.

We are lucky to have an excellent team that put together our website — eGlobalDesign.  I first ran into the principals when I helped them put together a stategy for their business.

They have (with their usual responsiveness) created a link to take users straight to the download link for this website:  http://downloads.fwconsulting.com

Thanks to them, someone who just wants to download a document can click on the above link and be taken directly to the right web-page.
