Phone Clones

Ever noticed that Jon Gandy and Rick Sanders sound exactly the same on the phone?

Jon works for R-Anell and Rick is with McCall's Supply. You should call them on the phone and check it out. Just tell them I suggested you call them up and waste their time.

A Model Dealer

Check out Model Dealer Dave Williamson on the cover of this month's MHISC Update magazine. The cover story is called "Tired of Waiting for Business?" and Dave's classic expression epitomizes what's going on in our industry right now.

But the article goes on to talk about four ideas to use right now to draw traffic and increase sales at the wholesale and retail level. The article includes reports on:
>>> How SC dealers are coping with the floor plan situation
>>> How to work the $7500 federal tax credit for first-time homebuyers
>>> A new SC-only $1000 tax break for MH buyers who go green
>>> New limits for FHA home-only loans

This is a news to use article that can make a difference in your business.

We sent Update to the printer last Wednesday, so it should arrive in members' mailboxes the second week in January.

Have you checked out www.mhisc.com the last couple of weeks? We totally revamped MHISC's web site a few weeks ago. Right now we're spiffing it up.

One feature you'll like is the Member's Lightning Link. You'll find it on the home page on the top right just under the MHISC logo.

You can order a SLED check and get your employees licensed.

You can look up any county official's or state employee's phone number. Also you can email all the state government contacts that run the manufactured, modular, residential builder and contractors program for state government.

All with one click. You can save a huge amount of time by starting on MHISC's home page: www.mhisc.com.
