My first e-newsletter went out last night. The  "greeting" at the beginning of the  email explains its purpose:

—-

You’re receiving the inaugural installation of leading thoughts. This e-muse is a compliment to my blog (www.davefleming.typepad.com) and will give you a look into my thinking on business, leadership and life–a veritable cornucopia of what’s going on in my mind (if that’s scary the unsubscribe button is below). It will also keep you informed on where I’m headed and speaking in the days ahead.
By the way, if you know someone you think could benefit from my ramblings, forward this email along to him or her and encourage them to sign up.

If you’d like to receive the e-newsletter, simply go to the home page of my website (here) and sign up.
