Glazers Web Site Gets a Makeover
 |
As you click on the links in this month's Newswire, you might notice that it's not just the Newswire pages that look a little different. We thought it was also time to freshen up the ever-popular Glazers website.
All the popular features are still there, such as the easy navigation around the site, the quick links and the handy online tools such as the tax and business calendar, the table of tax-deductible expenses, our business start-up guide, and many more.
|
We've also added a new Resource Centre within the Online Tools section, giving you even more useful articles and business fact sheets. You can find these by clicking here.
To view our new home page, and explore our site generally, click here.
We welcome feedback, and suggestions are always appreciated, so if there are any ideas you'd like to share with us, or just tell us what you think of the new site, please click here.
