Landlord Law Blog Roundup from 30 August

This post is more than 9 years old

September 4, 2016 by Tessa Shepperson

White CoffeeI have spent the greater part of this weekened re-doing all (or a lot) of my Infusionsoft system emails so they are using the new mobile friendly template.

A massively tedious job but necessary as the new emails look MUCH better when reading via phone.  As a lot of peope do nowadays.

There are a huge number of system emails so I don’t expect to get it all finished today.  I may also spend a bit of time re-watching Strictly (my reward for the tedium) to prevent myself going crazy …

But what happened on the blog last week?  No post on BH Monday so lets go to

Tuesday
