Who says there's nothing on TV?

Good news for those sick of endless re-runs of The Great Escape, Dymo is coming back on TV which will drive sales through offices. 10 years ago most offices had a typewriter for typing labels for envelopes, these days most office workers resort to the highly impersonal window envelope, wasting most of a sheet of L7163 labels or hand writing the address.

This week's downloadable flyer features the Dymo 400 which is affordable, professional & profitable for members to sell.
