Level Reports
Over the last two years people said that after the first three free
reports they wanted more. Most people said they prefer simply to
pay for them rather than use the inquiry form system. In response
to your preferences, we now offer the entire reference library of
FLAAR reports by subject by series They
all are available by groups (series). We do not sell individual
titles. If you already have one or more titles you still ought to
have the entire series (especially because we are constantly updating
the report, so "the same title" may have new and additional
information, tips and help for your needs)
Reports
are available in Adobe Acrobat PDF full color, sent electronically.
No hard copy reports. The reports will be available to download,
after your credit card transaction is approved.
If
your company needs a report in Power Point format, let us
know. Power Point versions will be available as part of consulting
relationships with FLAAR and/or also with the state university |
