The hot line program is supported with an advertising and public relations program including national tv, trade and consumer magazines as well as professional publications for architects and builders. It is expected that the program will generate thousands of inquiries.
The Osmose Preferred Dealer Program also includes merchandising aids, sales support, seminars and coop advertising.
