• Why it makes sense to ship a freebie in your package (Hint: reciprocation-obligation factor)
• What kinds of customer retention and customer satisfaction strategies are a must

The buzz is spreading with very little "corporate marketing" from the publisher. There's a real grass-roots push going on because of the quality of the product itself.
