Now that you are reading this month's issue of ICS Cleaning Specialist magazine, you must have noticed the card on the front of the magazine. You ignored it? Allow me to tell you the significance of this card.

ICS Cleaning Specialist is free to you, the qualified professional. Just fill out the card, and mail it back. Whether you are a carpet cleaner, restoration specialist, building service contractor or other industry professional, ICS Cleaning Specialist is free. All you need to do is complete and return the card on this magazine (and each time you see one in the future). We even pay the postage.

This card does two things: It proves that you want to receive ICS Cleaning Specialist and it tells our advertisers that our readers are qualified professionals that ask for ICS Cleaning Specialist. If you do not sign and return the card however, you may be removed from our circulation.

Each month ICS Cleaning Specialist delivers features, leading industry news, columnists, new products and more. In short, our goal is to provide superior information to help you with your business. All you have to do is return this postage-paid card.

All that we ask is you send the card back, and after you've read the articles and feature stories designed to help you become more productive, then take a look at the products in the magazine that interest you. That's another easy step: Just return the Product Information card in the magazine to get free from any advertiser that you select. You may also do this at our Website, www.icsmag.com.

When you call any of our advertisers that you may buy products from or to receive information, let them know that you saw their advertisement in ICS Cleaning Specialist. Is there something you'd like us to cover? Let us know. This is what we'd like from you.

Oh, there is one more thing...did you remember to sign the card?
