Suzie and I are pleased to let you all know we have been selected as one of the Best Places to work once again. We will be heading out to California the week of November 20^th to participate in a special "Best Places to Work" summit and attend the first annual awards celebration where ASI will announce the actual rankings. We appreciate all you do to make our company one of the Best Places to Work in our Industry. Our employees and our sales reps are the reason we receive this award. We continue to work hard to hire and train the best of the best, we are very proud of every person who is affiliated with our company.

Christmas is right around the corner, yes it seems the retail people skip Thanksgiving! In any event, we are fortunate to have great supplier partners who will do all they can to ensure delivery of your customer's product right up to the last minute. Why wait though, now is the time to check your list to see who has purchased end of the year gifts or simply has year end "Budgets" to spend. Encourage all of them to buy now and ship as needed. The money they will save on UPS RED or other expedited shipping will got a long way to add value to their budget if they buy now rather than wait til the week of Christmas to order.

Keep up the hard work. We truly appreciate all you do to make Proforma the Best Place to Work!
