How do you handle change pages for customers? Do you send the pages and
hope the
customer knows what to do with them? Is there a general format, or is there no
general way to handle this?
We currently (RARELY) send a cheesy, plain cover page with the change pages.
That is going to change as we have new product line coming down the pipe. Is
there another, more sophisticated, way to do this?

Find a commercial pilot or flight instructor at your local airport / FBO.
Ask them to show you how Jepesson Inc does loose leaf updates 52 weeks a
year to Air Navigation manuals for pilots all over the world. It works.
