Questions for discussion will in-
clude: Should you keep your fami-
ly home or sell? If you keep it,

cons of buying or renting an
apartment? What is the meaning
of such legal terms as strata titles,
interim agreements? What are the
rights and responsibilities of te-

Selling strategies book out

From page 60

based Self-Counsel Press is a book
loaded with advice on how to sell
something you can't see, taste or
touch. Selling Strategies For Ser-
vice Businesses, by Karen Johnston
and Jean Withers, promises a sales
method geared for the contem-
porary marketplace.

Said Johnston: ‘‘The old adage,
‘My service sells itself," has gone
the way of the dinosaur.

Hairstylists, dentists or consul-

tants who think of the word ‘sell’
as a four-letter word are prepared
to corner the largest share of their
market.

The co-authors, sales consul-
tants with a combined 20 years of
experience, cover topics including
tips on how to find potential
clients, advice on overcoming the
fear of making telephone calis,
successful telemarketing techniques
and advice on setting fees for pro-
fessional services.

Circuit training offered

ARE YOU looking for some-
thing new and exciting to com-
plement your fitness program? If
so, the North Vancouver Recre-
ation Commission may have the
program for you.

In April, circuit training will be
the newest addition to the Fitness
Package.

Circuit training, says pro-
grammer John Mullan is ‘‘a
fitness class in the weight room,
using the universal gym, free
weights, stationary bicycles and
rowing machines.”*

Circuit training is a method of
training used traditionally by
athletes looking for car-
dio-vascular fitness as well as
strength improvement. It is par-
ticularly popular with rowers,
rugby players and runners as a

way to supplement their training
regimen.

Anyone who is at least moder-
ately fit already might enjoy cir-
cuit training, says Mullan.

“The program is excellent for
people looking for a change from
Tegular fitness classes, or for
people who find the weight room
too mundane. For those who
have lower leg injuries, they may
find the emphasis on low impact
exercise will allow them to con-
tinue working out while they re-
cuperate,’* he said.

According to recreation centre
fitness instructor Joyce Torrence,
many people are intimidated by
regular group classes. ‘‘In a cir-
cuit training class there is no
fitness instructor to follow, the
moves and exercises are simple,
