What You Missed...  If you haven't been to a GIPHCC meeting, January's meeting will be an excellent time to get back into the practice. The GIPHCC luncheons are a good way to catch up on industry topics and network with others. Please plan to be an active member of GIPHCC in 2013. |

Message From The President
 Happy and Healthy New Year! Wow, another year has passed! It's true that the older I get, the faster the years pass by. Have you set personal and professional goals for this new year? Have you set your budget for the new year? Don't forget to include PHCC dues! Have you set your sales goal? It is refreshing to start a new year and to feel as if we can reboot and start over with new plans and goals.
The January speaker is Denny Smith, and he does a great job enlightening us on financial forecasts. I hope he shares his plan that will allow me to retire in 2013! If you have not attended a meeting in a while, this should be an excellent one to attend.
Also, we should have a new code by the time you read this. Click here for information about the training class covering the Indiana amendments. Dave Nance, President, GIPHCC |

SkyTrak 2013 Interest:
For the $200 a month fee, 161 commercials are seen a month and 11,000 pre-roll impression s on Video On Demand. PHCC is listed on the www.wthr.com Marketplace page. We will have inclusion on www.wthr.com landing page and PHCC directory, MarketPlace Facebook page, and benefit from bulk 300x 250 ads on wthr.com, a new video for VoD commercials on SkyTrak, and commercials on MeTV. As always, we take this program for granted and seldom stop to realize how unique this form of advertising is in the nation. The core nucleus group which has supported this program from its inception deserves a huge vote of gratitude from the entire GIPHCC membership. They have provided recognition of the industry's professionalism. If you wish to be part of the 2013 SkyTrak program, please contact a board member asap. Enrollment is currently taking place.
