Advertorial

When you need to know and you need to know fast, then the new QuickGuides for Not for Profits are the answer – and the new website has all the information at your fingertips.

QuickGuides are reference books with just 24-pages each on all subjects relating to the third sector.

The QuickGuides will be officially launched at an event in Sydney on October 6th.

QuickGuides are written to give you the most amount of information in the least amount of time. Authors and reviewers come from around the world including Australia, NZ, the UK, South Africa, Belgium, and the USA with the majority from Australia.

Each Guide provides the important points you need to know about that subject from fundraising and event management to media strategies and working with volunteers.

QuickGuides are written by knowledgable authors in one country and reviewed by authors in another so they aren’t country-specific and they are inexpensive enough to allow you to have a library of information at hand.

There are 23 titles available in 2004 and there will be another 50+ available in 2005, plus a series specifically for academic institutions.

QuickGuides are useful for those both experienced in and new to a subject.

Each of the QuickGuides is $21 (including GST and postage & handling). Buy 2 or more and get a 10% discount. There is also a substantial discount available if you order the entire 2004 series.
