Can't find it anywhere.

Also, where can I find Successful Business Strats. for Expeditors, parts 1-13. I got 11-13. I would like to read the whole text.

Lawrence beat me to it as we are on a run at the moment. His answer is my answer.

It is amazing how fast Expedite NOW disappears off the racks where it is distributed free at truck stops. I have been at truck stops when the racks are being stocked. Some of the magazines are stocked in very large numbers, which explains why they remain on the shelf longer. But others are not and Expedite NOW always seems to be one of the first to go.

The best way to make sure you get a copy is to subscribe for free. A copy will be mailed to you each time an edition comes out (six times a year).

I was actually thinking of posting the same type of thing. I don't recall getting an issue since before Christmas. Maybe they're or we're cutting back on postal services? (I mean our respective governments) :rolleyes:

I joind this site in January. I subscribed to NOW but have never received one. I also check the now web site and it is still Christmas there. I figured it is quarterly so I keep waiting.

You may have subscribed too late to make the cutoff for the first issue in 2009. If subscribers believe they are on the list but are not receiving the magazine, that is something we would like to know (private messages please). We need to know your name and address so your free subscription can be verified.

Thousands of copies are mailed out each time and it is not unexpected that a few will fall through the post office cracks. But if a pattern of non-receipt is detected, that is something we can follow up on. As far as we know, the mailings are going well once the magazine is printed.

The most recent edition (which is the first edition in 2009) went to print not long ago. It takes some time to get it printed, labeled and mailed. The cover story is based on this thread. When readers start receiving it in their mailboxes, perhaps some of you can say so here so others will know to look for it. If yours does not come after you see others receiving theirs, let us know so we can check things out.

The thought occurs to state on the Expedite NOW web site when the most recent edition has been published and mailed, and to provide a form for subscribers to complete to let us know their copy did not reach them. I'll take this up with the powers that be.

Thank you for your interest in Expedite NOW. It is gratifying to see the magazine is missed when it is not received as expected. Please note that it is published just six times a year and publication intervals vary somewhat between editions.
