====================================== KNOW WHO YOU'RE HIRING! 
    The Employee Management System is the highly-accurate "personality 
management" program that can save you a fortune in employment costs.  
    REDUCE TURNOVER. Employee turnover is extremely expensive.  It 
reduces production and increases internal friction.  It increases 
training and operational costs.  EMS actually helps you control  and 
reduce employee turnover.  It  is  so effective that many businesses 
report a turnover reduction of 50% or more! 
    HIRE THE RIGHT PEOPLE.  Every job has its own "ideal personality".  
Would you place a quiet, thoughtful person out in the sales field, or 
does that job require a self-motivated go-getter?  EMS evaluates the 
work personality  requirements of any job.  Then it will instantly 
tell you which of your applicants matches that job. 
    KNOW WHAT MOTIVATES YOUR EMPLOYEES.  EMS will help you know how to 
motivate an employee, to make that employee happy, and also how to 
avoid demotivating that person. 
    The Employee Management System is an accurate and amazing answer 
to the task of hiring employees and then keeping them happy once they 
are hired.        (R:95) 

Rated in Compute! Magazine as  "One of the World's Best 101 Programs !" 

====================================== PERSONALITY ANALYSIS SYSTEM 
    PAS is our highly-accurate program that is designed to help the 
individual better understand his own personality and those of friends, 
acquaintances and loved ones. PAS encourages open communication 
between adults and teens, helping to bridge the "generation gap".     
It is valuable as a personal communications tool between friends, 
marriage mates, business acquaintances and any other relationship 
where personality is a strong influencing factor.  PAS also offers a 
"job match" system which will help  you to determine the correct job 
for your personality.  
    PAS is the personal/family version of our popular EMS program  It 
works in several ways: 
    PAS IS ACCURATE.  The accuracy will astound you.  
    IMPROVE YOURSELF.  PAS helps you know yourself by describing your 
strengths, motivational factors and demotivational factors.  You can 
use your strengths and build them to your advantage. 
    JOB MATCH helps you to determine whether or not a job fits in with 
your basic personality.  Is the environment one that will encourage 
you to work and motivate you to produce your best?  Will it allow you 
to use your personal skills to the utmost?    (R:95) 

====================================== ADVANCED PERSONALITY PACKAGES 
    Both EMS and PAS are available in advanced packages for 
professionals, EMS5 and PAS+.  They include  everything featured in 
our basic packages, plus  add the following features: 
    STRESS EVALUATION SYSTEM.  Stress can be very detrimental.  
Excessive stress causes irritation, loss of production, job loss, 
family disfunction.  Stress evaluation shows you key areas of 
potentially harmful stress so that you can  overcome that stress 
before it becomes a liability. 
    TEAM EVALUATION SYSTEM helps you understand how members of a group 
will function for the duration of a project.  Will they get along well 
together?  Are they compatible in work habits?  How will the team 
"leader" function in this position? This program will warn you of 
potential pitfalls and incompatibilities and help you turn potential 
liabilities into assets. 
    How will the members of the team function with one another?  EMS 5 
can help them learn how to better cooperate and will help you avoid 
those dangerous "personality conflicts."                                    
    PERSONNEL DATABASE SYSTEM. Lets you track important employee/ 
applicant information.  Define your own information requirements and 
design reports according to your needs.  PDS ties in to the 
Personality Evaluation Program to provide you with extensive reference 
capabilities (available on EMS5 only).  

    EMS 5 and PAS+ can help you in several areas: 
    *  Reduce employee turnover 
    *  Increase production and job satisfaction 
    *  Hire the right people for the job 
    *  Reduce interview time and manpower waste

====================================== DON'T SHOOT YOUR COMPUTER! 
    The 7-Day Computer Learning Course is the easiest computer course 
ever designed.  If your computer is confusing to you, this is probably 
because no one ever explained DOS, the Disk Operating System.  
    DOS is the heart of your computer.  Trying to use a computer 
without knowledge  of   DOS   is  like  trying  to build a house 
without a foundation.  7-Day teaches you how to use DOS in easy-to-
understand, non-technical language (we speak English).  This wonderful 
course will have you understanding your computer in one week (or less)

====================================== How TRY-THEN-BUY works: 
  SHAREWARE  is a term which refers to a method of marketing.  
Operational copies of the programs are made available for a small 
duplication charge.  You are allowed to try out the program for a 
short period of time (usually 10-30 days).  If you decide to continue 
using the program, you send us the listed registration fee.  If not, 
you discontinue use of the program and remove it from your computer.  
Registration always brings you extras like a printed manual, the 
newest version of the program (which often contains additional 
programs and features), free telephone support and the legal right to 
use the program.  Shareware is a wonderful way for you to examine our 
software before buying it, which is a good deal for both of us.  It 
means that when you do buy our product you're already satisfied. 
    That's the way we like to do business.
