Re: Stupid Human tricks



I enclose a single window envelope as the return envelope. The customer
tears off and encloses the payment slip from the bottom of invoice which has
the return address on it the same as a phone bill or credit card statement.
When sending out the invoice I use a double window envelope which seems to
work well, the invoice gets folded on the perforation for the payment slip
and everything aligns OK, there is a tolerance of about 1/2" (1/4" up or
down) so exact alignment is not that critical.
