Just Print It!

May 25, 2010

Your FREE online resource for AQHA supplies and brochures!

AQHA Customer Service Rep Kayla Randall

The introduction of AQHA’s Downloads page has made a big difference in the amount of informational material AQHA has available to everyone. With the economy so scary right now, it has been difficult for some businesses to keep up the same quality of service to consumers. AQHA hopes to close that gap a little with AQHA Downloads. It’s free, it’s convenient, it’s fast! Now you can view and/or print brochures and booklets with the click of a mouse instead of calling in and waiting for your brochures to arrive in the mail.

To access the AQHA Downloads page, all you have to do is fill out a little information page – this helps AQHA know how many people are using the service. You can then save the page to your favorites, and there you have it! A wealth of information at your fingertips!
