To increase business traffic to the location, to stand our as a community serving business, to advertise a free "HotSpot" to patrons. This all becomes an asset to the business. Some owners will what to know why you are doing this? Some answers include, as a homework project, as a community enhancement project, as a mission of a non-profit service organization, etc.
Have PTP brochers availible for your clients.
