We Want Your Thoughts on the New Year!

Ah...I'm recovering after a week at the PPAI Expo which was an great trade show. I made some positive business connections, saw cool new products and had fun!
In talking to colleagues, it was encouraging to discover that many are very optimistic about 2009. While everyone I talked to is realistic that these are challenging economic times, there is a sense that this marketplace will create opportunities for those who on top of their game. That's why the PPAI Expo was so beneficial and earlier in the month I heard that the ASI Show in Orlando was also excellent. Those who desire to succeed will attend industry events that will benefit their business.
The SanMar/Ogio X Jam
event was amazing. As a former motocross racer, seeing those guys jump
and do 360's in the air was a treat. Chocolate bars from our friends
at Chocolate Inn were a nice addition to the event (Click here to take advantage of a PromoTips Exclusive Free Sample Offer from Chocolate Inn.) The Styx concert that followed made the evening memorable. Watching old folks rock out was a blast, and the band was impressive as well! Who really thinks 50 is old?
In
this issue we would like to give you the opportunity to share your thoughts. This is your opportunity to sound off!

In light of the country's economic situation, did the expensive branded gifts given at the Presidential Inauguration make a positive or negative impression?
Are you excited about the economy or scared?
What did you think of the January trade shows?
For a positive, ongoing networking forum experience, I encourage you to visit Logo 24/7, an exciting new industry resource. In this issue we feature an excellent article from Tony Rubleski who I met at the PPAI Expo. We have addressed the slow economy in the past and we will cover it in the future, but to start 2009 off right, we wanted to go with something positive. Enjoy.
Happy business building,
