If you’ve been doing plenty of online orders lately, you may find yourself in possession of a huge cache of emails and wondering what to do with them. Though it might be obvious, newsletters are a great way to use that new resource to your best advantage.

A Message from GDC

As a national association that holds an event somewhere in Canada every week, GDC is extremely concerned about the potential impact of COVID-19 on the health and well-being of our members and their families.
