The
Electronic Link for Industry News and Communication (ELINC) service is
an extremely valuable tool offered by the association, and by far the
most cost effective email address list available in the industry. As a
subscriber to ELINC, you can contact either the publishers or the CMR
community or, both, concurrently. The association uses ELINC to notify
members of upcoming training sessions, membership changes, conference
information, new products, etc. The Publishers use ELINC to notify the
CMRs of close date changes, new products, directory rescopes, new
directories, ad specifications, promotions, etc.
CMRs typically use the service to notify the publishers of,
system conversions, holiday closings, address and phone number changes,
surveys, etc.
The most
important fact about ELINC is
it is as simple to use as sending an email
message
The ELINC system is now part
of the YPA IRIS OnlineTM product. It is not necessary
for you to be an IRIS Online subscriber in order to use the ELINC
services.
