One Month of Crochet Pattern Giveaways - Day One

**EDIT: I have decided to create a new blog post for each day of the giveaway. This post is day one.


DAY ONE!

2017 was another wonderful year for Blackstone Designs! I have gained new fans, made new friends, and reached new goals! 


If you don't already, I would love to have you follow me on social media!

You know I appreciate you so much and I always want to show my gratitude for all of the support I receive! So, I decided to do another full month of giveaways! All you have to do is come back to this blog every day & find out what the pattern is. Then head over and grab your copy!

**IMPORTANT NOTES: Each pattern is only free for one day. The code will expire at 11:59 pm EST on the day it is posted. Before finalizing your purchase, make sure the code has gone through, and the cart reflects "FREE". There will be no refunds for patterns purchased accidentally. Also, make sure you are logged in to your account, so your patterns can go to your library.

If there is a code error and the code will not go through check to make sure you have the updated code. If you have the correct code, and there is an error on my end, I WILL get it fixed no later than Noon EST. Try again after noon. DO NOT make the purchase if your cart doesn't reflect FREE.

When sharing about this giveaway, share the link to this post ONLY:
Do not share the code. If I find that people are sharing the code, I will end the giveaway.
Do not share my patterns. If you miss a day, then you miss a day. If I find that people are sending my patterns to each other, I will end the giveaway.

Please see THIS POST for full details.

    violation management
    The Convenience of Using Web Based Parking Management Software:
    When talking about parking management, most parking managers would say that they have the most complicated task especially when it comes to paper works. This is the main reason why there are many establishment owners who are trying to incorporate the use of the latest technology with their processes and make it possible to make tahe job a lot easier than how it used to. One of the effective solutions that are now used by many establishments with their parking management processes is the web based parking management software.
    The use of this kind of software has improved the way parking managers do their job while it helps to make the processes within the job easier and faster. Given that the software can be accessed online, it already comes with helpful web based tools that would make parking management easier to handle than how it would. There are many people who would think that it may be a complicated transition, but with learning how to make use of the software, they would soon realize how easy it is to handle.
    Advantages of Web Based Parking Management Software over Old Parking Management Services
    When you will try looking through the advantages of the web based software over the old management services for parking, you will find out that there are really many advantages that would make you decide in getting the software.
    Ease of Access
    Provided that you have internet connection, you are sure to have the ease of accessing whatever information that you need since everything can be accessed on the internet no matter what device you use. Browse through the information of every registrant and update the specific details whenever and wherever you want through your mobile device and viola, everything is settled.
    Wide Scope of Management Services
    Aside from collecting information from registrants, the web based parking management software could also help you in getting other jobs done. Like when you need to send updates to all of your registrants. If before you should be preparing the letters weeks before the date they should be receiving the notices, the use of the software will allow you to blast the emails to all of your registrants and make sure that everyone received the emails in a single day.
    Search on Specific Information and Details is Easy
    Since all of the information of your registrants is saved on cloud, you can easily search on the registrant and access their data with ease. You will no longer search through several files or even go through piles of papers just to look for a small detail. This makes it possible for people to save original information as well as the updates whenever their registrants have some changes to do.
    Are you one of those establishment owners wanting to get this web based parking management software, feel free to get to know more about it on WebParkingSoftware.com and also learn how to get the software and use it for the benefit of your establishment’s parking management needs.
