BonDuit® Conduit Adhesive strength demonstration

BonDuit^® is Strong!

Contractor/Industrial reps should take special note of the rapid increase of interest of BonDuit Conduit Adhesive in their market. While we originally expected most usage to occur in the communications and power utilities arenas, the rising cost of PVC makes polyethylene use in general electrical construction more prevalent--and BonDuit sales reflect this! Pay attention particularly to parking lot lighting projects, DOT installations, and other large construction jobs. Be sure to ask customers about their polyethylene duct use and coupling methods. Be aware that one of the most effective sales tools APC offers you continues to be the "smoking tires" BonDuit demo slide show at www.polywater.com/BTdemo.asp.

Jeff Ericson

Jeff Ericson is American Polywater's Western Regional Sales Manager. In addition to his extraordinary sales talent, Jeff is naturally photogenic and has an uncanny tendency to find himself in photographically interesting circumstances while "working for the Company." The latest example is Jeff trying his hand at fly fishing in the Madison River near Butte, MT. Despite the pro fisherman look, Jeff later admitted that, "I didn't even know flies could swim!"

The Friday Fax Editor's Joke of the Week

The Joke

The Origins of Enron. A young hillbilly named Kenny moved to Texas and bought a donkey from a farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day. The next day the farmer drove up and said "Sorry, son, but I have some bad news: your donkey died." Kenny replied, "Well, then just give me back my money." The farmer said, "Can't do that. I spent it already." So Kenny said, "OK, then just bring me the dead donkey." The farmer asked, "What ya gonna do with him?" Kenny said, "I'm going to raffle him off." The farmer said, "You can't raffle off a dead donkey!" Kenny said, "Sure I can. I just won't tell anybody he's dead." A month later the farmer met up with Kenny and asked, "Whatever happened with that dead donkey?" Kenny said, "I raffled him off just like I said I would. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $998." The farmer said, "Didn't anyone complain?" Kenny said, "Just the guy who won, but I gave him his two dollars back plus two more as a goodwill gesture." Kenny eventually became the Chairman of Enron.
