Simple Secrets to Better Health

Vol. 2, July 2006

Did anyone say India?

What does it take to send e-mails to over 500 people in 6 countries every week and why do we do it? Here is the inside scoop.

The internet continues to grow in its importance as the so-called knowledge era emerges. From a dental practice that is located in Beamsville, Ontario, we have a world wide presence and online clients from many countries. We are on the leading edge when it comes to recognizing dental diseases as inflammatory in nature. This links periodontal disease to cardivascular disease, diabetes, and a host of other inflammation diseases. We feel it is our professional responsibility to inform our clients so that you are better able to accept responsibility for your health with our support.

To accomplish this objective, we utilize online services to send our informative e-mail messages to you. We also use e-commerce support to provide links to online products and services for your convenience.

Here are the basic steps to sending you this message. First, Ken connects to the internet from anywhere in the world to write the monthly message. This makes it much more convenient than having to be sitting at the office computer to compose a message.

Secondly, Ken chooses from a series of lists who will receive the message and the date to send it is programmed into the system. When the date arrives, the  message is sent automatically to you and Ken gets an e-mail confirmation to let him know that all went as planned.

Third, Ken goes back to reading and researching for another month so he can keep you up to date with the latest in health and wellness.

Question- Does anyone know where the host computer is located that allows Ken to program from anywhere and  where this message just came to you from? If anyone said India, you win. It is getting to be a small world, isn't it.

With best wishes from your global dental team.
