 ARM Notes:

                                                       You might have noticed that our web site name has changed to www.rehabmarketing.org .  We feel that this name reflects our wider appeal. Please change your links and bookmarks to reflect the new name.

•                                          Remember to submit job postings, equipment for sale, trade or to buy to the ARM web site for a free listing. E-mail them to info@rehabmarketing.org. Check this link for new listings of equipment for sale:  http://www.rehabmarketing.org/jobopp.htm

•                                         The ARM web site is viewed by thousands of prospective customers for your products and services.  Think about placing an ad on our site or in this publication. It’s only $200 per year plus a one time design charge. Send email to info@nysarm.org for the complete advertising price schedule.  Also try to keep your listing on our site up to date. 

•                                           We all have contact with agencies who are not members of ARM.  You are encouraged to ask these agencies to join our organization (and to join yourself– if you haven’t already done so).  WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT.
