Sue Gallagher found errors in a marketing publication from a Technical
Writing Contract firm.
My opinion:
Help them by telling them.
I'm assuming they would appreciate it - after all they are in business to
make money. They could have already lost a lot of money because other
potential clients didn't phone to advise them of the errors they found.
Hope this helps

Sue Gallagher's questions:
What would you do? Would you point these things out to them, or
just never have any business to sent their way?
I'm curious.
