Dear Technology Coordinator,
As Dubuque Schools has realized, we want to aid your
organization's understanding of the advantages of Integrated
eCommerce and ePayments (see today's news clip below).
Therefore, you and the members of your Finance, Food Service,
Continuing Ed., IT, Foundations and Activities departments
are invited to attend the next Iowa Informational ePayments
Seminar (this time hosted by the Jefferson-Scranton School
District) and visit one of the many WebMalls listed below.
On Google's news service this morning was this article.
INTERNET SALES WAY UP OVER '03
CONSUMERS SPENT $23.2 Billion DURING HOLIDAYS
Verne Kopytoff, SF Chronicle Staff Writer
Tuesday, January 4, 2005
"Online shoppers opened their wallets wide during the holidays,
pushing Internet sales up 25 percent from last year, according
to a report released Monday. Consumers spent $23.2 billion, an
increase of $4.7 billion from the same period in 2003, making this
the biggest holiday yet for e-commerce."
(The seminar goes one step further, which is INTEGRATION of
this unstoppable trend to your district's mission critical
sub-systems, campus-wide.)
Like you, we also serve the public by helping public education
reduce labor by collecting fees electronically; on-line
and off-line. Do you hate wasted labor and love new revenue
like we do? If so, please consider attending our Informational
ePayment Seminar:
Informational ePayment Seminar

High School Building
101 Ram Drive
Jefferson, IA 50129

Please forward this invitation to an associate;
your fellow staff members in the Finance, Food Service
Information Systems (IT), Adult Ed., Activities,
Transportation and Perfoming Arts. They will all learn
how their fees can be electronically pre-paid on their
own integrated hosted WebStore, safely and securely.This
seminar is open to any school personnel that would like to
attend. Please RSVP and I will send you directions.
Similar to the common one-shopping cart method of Amazon.com,
think of (your school).com as a similar one-stop, universal
service point - for the parents to........

interfaced right into their Food Service Software

FAMILY SHOPPING CART ! (for all of their children & schools)
The list is endless for guaranteed revenue that just appears
in your bank account (and the option to upload the payment to your
internal service sub-systems).
**In 2004 debit cards usage surpassed credit card usage. Online
commerce is where people are using their debit cards. Schools
can now take advantage of this trend as more and more rural
and urban online shoppers turn their lunch hour into online
activity.
ePayments Can Eliminate:
Expensive, Uncontrolled & Error Prone Manual Counting
Processing of Numerous Checks and Dollar Bills
Phone Calls that Consume Time
Empty Meal & Childcare Accounts to Manage & Communicate
and above all..... Keying updates into another system?
WHAT IF PARENTS DID ALL THE DEPOSIT / DATA ENTRY WORK FOR YOU?
In a budget crisis? ..Monumental Labor Savings & Revenue Production!
This 100-minute seminar is open to any school or city personnel
that would like to learn how to revenue-supercharge their website
and reduce labor with a "system-neutral", campus/city-wide WebMall
(interfaced to ancillary systems like food service) that also
cashiers off-line by mail, phone, or in person.
This event is a fun and profitable opportunity for your staff to
surf and explore a diverse array of WebMalls with other
like-minded and community oriented people, all driven by
the mandated need to simplify, increase revenue, and reducing
labor, during a time of budget shortfalls. The seminar will
prepare your organization for securely proliferating various
electronic pre-payments (credit/debit cards) on your website
and local network.
A fraction of the many public institutions currently cashiering
ePayments and registrations will be shown to provide a
dynamic dimension of understanding electronic
cashiering and notification. Part of the seminar is spent
surfing live, working, 24 hour WebStores & WebMalls all
powered by robust, automated "end-to-end" eCommerce.
The following WebMalls will all be specially featured during
this event:
