Dear Steve,
Here is the government report on Communication Metrics. It explains how adding a "metric" to communications provides "intelligence" that adds value to people and organizations. This gives Turner a marketing advantage by offering more than your competitors. "Intelligence" makes information a benefit rather than a burden. This means a successful project. See what you think. I'll call you next week.

Sincerely,

THE WELCH COMPANY
