Dear All,
There are some excellent properties at the bottom of this letter. Please have a good look at them. This is a very interesting market, and an exciting part of the world to be involved, at whatever level.
I have in front of me the Knight Frank annual report for 2006 - For anyone interested in property anywhere it makes interesting reading and I will quote parts of it:
Their opening statement reads:
“Demand for overseas property is increasing by as much as 20% per annum - a significant figure.”

Wow. Check out this on ZDNET today! How does this happen, I wonder, and how on earth are people so tolerant of certain companies … mainly Tech companies??
I dont know, man, but in my business this would NOT be good enough! You release a product, within a couple of days faults are found with it (not EVENTUALLY, BUT WITHIN DAYS!!!) and somehow this is deemed an opportunity to make a good impression??!!
My clients are intolerant of the smallest error or even of things not going quite right due to circumstances beyond our control!
Damn! I am getting into the Software Business, man!

Imagine my surprise to get an “unsolicited” but USEFUL email into my inbox this morning.
I have been using “Efax” for some time now, all in the spirit of the Paperless Office (plus I don’t want or need the hassle of having a damned Analogue phoneline installed!) and it always works great for us!
So I get a little email, suggesting that since I have been using it for MORE than a year now, why dont I go on the “Annual” pricing plan instead of the “monthly”. It will end up saving me 2 months a year on the subscription.
Now I know that it is interesting to them to have Annual customers, I am sure it makes their planning and forecasting easier, and probably (if you aggregate the numbers) makes their company more valueable, but I think it is a nice touch anyway. Gift Horses and Mouths come to mind! 
They could have just left me (and others, I am sure!) on that monthly plan and taken the higher revenues afforded by lazy Bas*&%*$ like me who don’t bother to look at the cheapest overall plan on such things.
Nice touch, eFAX. I am sure you will be MORE than adequately compensated for such systems in the long run!
