fujilab Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Recently we got a subscription request for one of the trade magazines we've been getting for years free. It's been a great read but did make me think about where best we spend our money on subs with PMA, Chamber of Commerce, etc. Its all mounting up. . Maybe we should be getting the suppliers to pay for the mags - after all, they are the ones trying to target us with product/equipment ads PS. We really enjoy the BPI magazine - always seems a good read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kioskguy Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 I assume you're talking about Pixel? I think it's vital we support all the Trade magazines as we need to know what's happening. In the old days we'd catch up with goings-on through reps, but they are few and far between now. Do agree, the BPI does have some good stuff lately, but also enjoy the behind the counter section in Pixel too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilT Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 And dont forget we now have web sites like Mini Lab Help where all content is free, and with the user interaction many lab owners have saved many $$ £££ etc. This site is always moderated, and gets regular updates, but gets very, and I mean very little funding or support.

fujilab Posted May 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 I think that if you're a PMA member then you get the BPI magazine included. There are a good series of business development articles we've been following in this. As for Pixel, you can read this online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cecilh Posted May 19, 2010 Report Share Posted May 19, 2010 The mag is good for our business. If anyone quibbles abot a few pound to help with costs I feel very sorry for them. Words fail me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kioskguy Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 Cecil - was that you we read about in BPI this month? You seem to be making the news in all the mags lately. Must be something in the water up there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cecilh Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 It was me that featured in the Soapbox section in Pixel earlier in the year but it was my sidekick Ben who was in BPI. Cheers Cecil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
