Dear Classy Student,
Welcome to the new school year. I am really psyched to provide you with the tools you need to do well and get something out of your AP and honors courses.
Everyone has heard the phrase, "there is no such thing as a free lunch." I disagree. Think time-shares...sit in on their meetings, resist their offers, and walk out with an all-expenses paid trip to Disney World...lunch included.
This offer is kind of like that. Amazon has teamed up with my website so that every time you buy something from Amazon, I get a small share. Of course, you won't have to sit through a 5 hour presentation and the intense pressure of resisting a gorgeous, over-priced condo in Boca Raton. The only thing you have to do is buy on Amazon by clicking through Course-Notes. I mean, come on, why wouldn’t you? It’s not like it costs you anything more to buy your overpriced textbooks through our site.
Let's take a few examples to demonstrate how this arrangement works:
Meet Silly Sally. Silly Sally needed to by books for class. Alas, even though Silly Sally noticed the brilliant offer on Course-Notes, she decided to open a brand new window, manually type in the Amazon URL, and make her purchase.
No, Silly Sally! What were you thinking!?
Thanks to Silly Sally, Course-Notes didn't have enough revenue to survive...
Now meet Awesome Andy. Awesome Andy saw an opportunity to help out one of his best buddies by clicking through Course-Notes to buy his HDTV.
Awesome Andy, you just saved Course-Notes with your unnecessarily expensive TV purchase! Thanks, Andy! You're awesome!
