EMAIL SOLUTIONS
Email marketing is considered to
be one of the most powerful forms
of direct marketing because email
lists consist of either existing customers
or people that have opted-in to receive
information and marketing related to a
particular interest, service or offer.
This makes email one of the most
fundamental forms of digital marketing
for any business. However, most
businesses dont have the resources or
time to manage and grow their lists or
continually develop content. AdTaxi can
handle all of the various aspects of
email marketing.
Well designed email campaigns are
great ways to test multiple messages
and offers. Every email is trackable, with
reports to show exactly what messages
worked and which items drove traffic to
a customers site, microsite or landing
page. AdTaxis email solutions also
help drive Facebook Likes, Twitter
followers and increase subscribers to the
customers email database. This creates
recurring customer visits through multiple
channels.

The liquidators could be
at the Borders in Clifton
Park today, a store
employee told an inquir-
ing customer earlier this
week, when the impend-
ing closing of all of the
bookstores locations was
announced.
Its day by day here,
the employee said.
Customer Christina
Dougall of Clifton Park
was disappointed to hear
about the closing as she
shopped on Tuesday. I
love book stores. Im not
into the Nook, she said.
I love holding my books.
Another customer,
Clara Dreymann, was
checking out the sale
items outside the main
entrance. I always like to
read and get some good
deals here, she lament-
ed.
The Borders in Clifton
Park and Albany escaped
the round of closings in
February, which shut-
tered the still-empty two-
story building in down-
town Saratoga Springs.
Messages left for the
Borders corporate
spokesman were not
returned by press dead-
line. But Clifton Park town
Supervisor Philip Barrett
responded to requests for
comment about the news.
We will work with our
partners in the private
sector as we have in the
past and aggressively
court a replacement,
Barrett said. Brick and
mortar bookstores are
evidently not working. Its
a change in habits. Those
changes have created
new opportunities in some
areas and affected others
in negative ways
Borders is a major ten-
ant in our Exit 9 commer-
cial area and one we hate
to lose. But there is proba-
bly a national tenant out
there who doesnt know
Clifton Park is the place to
be and we will find them
and let them know. Our
partnership with the pri-
vate sector has worked
well, he said, citing the
Boscovs in Clifton Park.
Also in the plaza are a
TGIFridays Restaurant, a
Pretzel Factory, a Moes,
a Shanes Rib Shack, and
a health spa.

What to
do with
Station 2
Jonesville Fire
District seeks
suggestions
By GLENN GRIFFITH
ggriffith@Saratogian.com
The Jonesville Fire
District Board of Com-
missioners is holding a
public forum next
Thursday to hear the
publics suggestions on
what should be done
with Fire Station No.2.
The forum is the first
of five scheduled as part
of a feasibility study on
how the district should
deal with the nearly 40-
year-old building. The
meeting starts at 7 p.m.
July 28 at Fire Station
No.2, Route 146A.
Board of Commission-
ers Chairman Jim Miller
formed an 18-member
advisory committee in
March to begin the
review process. The
committee is made up
equally of fire depart-
ment personnel and res-
idents who volunteered.
After several in-depth
discussions on what
action to take with the
building, the committee
agreed to hire Syracuse-
based consultants
Heuber-Breuer Con-
struction Company to
conduct a feasibility
study. The study will
take five or six months.
Heuber-Breuer is being
paid $16, 500 for their
services.
Miller said the com-
mittee has reviewed the
best methods for moving
the district ahead in
coming years, the dis-
tricts needs, and what
should be done with Sta-
tion No. 2. The district
held two votes in 2006 to
replace the station and
both were defeated. In
2010, the district pur-
chased a parcel on
Clifton Park Center
Road in case there was a
need to expand in that
direction.
Last time we put up
our wants, Miller said.
Now well discuss our
needs. We want to hear
every single option out
there, from not doing
anything, to fixing it up,
taking half of it down, to
building new. We are not
the experts. There are
lots of questions and we
want the public involved
all the way this time.
Heuber-Breuer proj-
ect manager Sean Foran
agreed with Miller that

Due to variances in newspaper circulation draws on a day-to-day basis the
quantity you send us may be over or under what we need to fulll your
distribution instructions on a given day. To assure efcient coverage we
will, depending on whether your supplied quantity is over or under our
need for that day, add distribution closest to each store or subtract furthest
away based on your buy in home-delivery. In addition we will subtract
from or add to single copy distribution based on variances in draws. In
both cases, we understand that home delivery is most valuable and will act
accordingly.
