• Encourage members to buy at ciscopress.com using the CUG discount membership code.
• Add a ciscopress.com link and the official Cisco User Group logo to your user website.
• Add program messaging to site and newsletter/e-mail correspondence to members. Provide Cisco Press with a copy of newsletter and/or meeting agenda so Cisco Press can better target the messages to group members' interests.
