  10.                MARKS can be customized to fit your needs.  As you               
  11.           probably already know, every club likes to do things their            
  12.           own way.  Even two VFW clubs will want to maintain and print          
  13.           information differently.  With Project Customization you can          
  14.           request MARKS be changed to work the way you want and need            
  15.           it to.  Here is the way Project Customization works:                  
  16.                                                                                 
  17.             1)  Pay the registration fee for MARKS                              
  18.             2)  Send me:                                                        
  19.                   a)  your list of changes that you would like for me           
  20.                       to make to MARKS and/or                                   
  21.                   b)  a description describing any new program or               
  22.                       programs you would like written (i.e. a new               
  23.                       report)                                                   
  24.             3)  Prioritize your list of changes and new programs from           
  25.                 high to low (use 1 to represent the highest priority            
  26.                 -- those you want done first)                                   
  27.             4)  Include a PRINT SCREEN if you want a screen changed             
  28.             5)  If you want a report changed, include a copy of the             
  29.                 report with the changes requested clearly marked                
  30.             6)  If you want a new report or program, describe it using          
  31.                 a plain piece of paper                                          
  32.

  35.                             LIST OF CHANGES REVIEWED                            
  36.                                                                                 
  37.                                                                                 
  38.                After your list of changes are received, they will be            
  39.           reviewed and returned to you with the following:                      
  40.                                                                                 
  41.             1)  All changes okayed as requested and/or                          
  42.             2)  Possible suggestions on how to do what you are                  
  43.                 requesting another way that may even save you some              
  44.                 money, and                                                      
  45.             3)  An estimate of what it will cost to make each change            
  46.                                                                                 
  47.                If you decide to continue with the customizations,               
  48.           you would then follow the steps listed below:                         
  49.                                                                                 
  50.             1)  Return to me the list of changes clearly marking those          
  51.                 you want made (you can select all changes or only the           
  52.                 ones you are still interested in making)                        
  53.             2)  Send me a check for the amount that covers the changes          
  54.                 you want made                                                   
  55.                                                                                 
  56.                After your payment is received, you will receive in the          
  57.           mail a time estimate explaining when the changes should be            
  58.           completed.  Usually the changes can be done within a month,           
  59.           but sometimes it will take longer depending on the number of          
  60.           changes or amount of change and/or new programs requested.            
  61.                                                                                 
  62.                                                                                 
  63.                                                                                 
  64.                           HOW THE COST IS DETERMINED                            
  65.                                                                                 
  66.                                                                                 
  67.                Each change will be reviewed individually and assigned           
  68.           a cost classification.  The cost classifications are SMALL,           
  69.           MEDIUM, and LARGE.  The chart below shows the cost related            
  70.           to each classification:                                               
  71.                                                                                 
  72.             SMALL  = $10.00                                                     
  73.             MEDIUM = $25.00                                                     
  74.             LARGE  = $50.00                                                     
  75.                                                                                 
  76.                To help understand each cost classification, an example          
  77.           of each is listed below:                                              
  78.                                                                                 
  79.             SMALL  - adding a field that already exist in MARKS to an           
  80.                      existing report                                            
  81.             MEDIUM - changing the order information is printed on an            
  82.                      existing report and adding new report totals               
  83.             LARGE  - writing a new program                                      
  84.                                                                                 
  85.                                                                                 
  86.                                                                                 
  87.                                REFERRAL PROGRAM                                 
  88.                                                                                 
  89.                The referral program is designed to keep cost down               
  90.           for both you and me.  To advertize in a magazine is very              
  91.           expensive and very difficult to reach the appropriate                 
  92.           audience (plus word of mouth is always better).  Therefore,           
  93.           I have set up a Referral Program, and here is how it works:           
  94.                                                                                 
  95.             1)  Each time I receive a registration for MARKS and the            
  96.                 person says they were referred by you, I will give              
  97.                 you (your organization) 10 percent off your custom-             
  98.                 izations from that point on                                     
  99.             2)  The maximum number of referrals that can be counted             
  100.                 is 8 (up to 80 percent off your customizations).                
  101.                                                                                 
  102.                For example, if you have 4 referrals credited to you             
  103.           and the customizations you have requested total up to                 
  104.           $150.00, you would be charged only $90.00 (that is a savings          
  105.           of 40 percent, 10 percent for each referral).                         
  106.                                                                                 
  107.                Remember, MARKS can be used by any club or organziation          
  108.           such as VFW, American Legion, ELKS, Knights of Columbus,              
  109.           PTA, Glass Blowing Club, Doll Collecting Club, etc. (just to          
  110.           name a few).                                                          
  111.                                                                                 
  112.                                                                                 
  113.                                                                                 
  114.                                SHIPPING and HANDLING                            
  115.                                                                                 
  116.                Each time you are mailed a diskette, you will be                 
  117.           charged $5.00 for shipping and handling.  Most of the time            
  118.           this fee will be included in the cost estimate.                       
  119.                                                                                 
  120.                                                                                 
  121.                                                                                 
  122.                              PRINTING INSTRUCTIONS                              
  123.                                                                                 
  124.                If you would like a printed copy of the information              
  125.           on Project Customization, follow the instructions below:              
  126.                                                                                 
  127.             1)  Exit MARKS and return to the DOS prompt                         
  128.             2)  Place the INSTALL diskette in Drive A:                          
  129.             3)  Turn on your printer                                            
  130.             4)  At the DOS prompt type:                                         
  131.                                                                                 
  132.                   COPY CUSTOM.DOC PRN                                           
  133.                                                                                 
  134.                   I.E.  A:>COPY CUSTOM.DOC PRN                                  
  135.                                                                                 
  136.                Note: you can print CUSTOM.DOC from your hard disk               
  137.                drive by changing to the MARKS directory and entering            
  138.                the same command.
