Hi, gang,

I received the following from Stuart Bauman at Custom Direct:

>Mr. Kramer,
>
>What we do for groups with "limited markets" is different then what we do
>for the general public. You (or the La Leche League or whomever you wish to
>involve) would actually choose the design work that you would like to see
>depicted on a one, two, or four design check package. At your expense we
>could put those designs into a check background and eventually have the
>check stock printed to accomodate the estimated order activity. You (or
>someone else involved with you) could then market the check however you
>believe it to be most advantageous, collect the orders, and forward them on
>to us for the actual printing of the orders. We would have certain fees for
>each check unit produced, but you could certainly charge each customer more
>than our price so that it has the potential to be a nice side business for
>the right person or group. You own the design rights, you own the check
>stock, and you have the option of marketing the check in the best way you
>see fit. (It seems from the hundreds of e-mails I have received that there
>are many cost free ways to market this check.) Obviously, there is more
>involved than what I've stated here, but this gives you an idea of the
>direction we could take with this. Please let me know what you think and if
>this "proposal" should be directed to someone else.

Do you think he took me more seriously because I'm a male?  Horrors!
