Prez message for October Well the year is drawing closer and closer to its end. I hope everyone has had a great, successful business year! We have a New Year right around the corner, and now is a great time to gear up for that New Year. Try a new marketing idea, send all your customers a thank you card for their business from last year, and offer them a discount or a free session. Keeping your name in front of your customers is very important in keeping those referrals coming in. They will remember you when talking to friends and acquaintances needing a photographer. At our October meeting we will announce our new incoming 2007 board. I think this board will be the best ever! Lots of new faces have stepped up and we are very excited to see them in action! I know they will do GREAT things for PPNV and its members. Our Photoshop group seems to be taking off, and our members are benefiting and learning lots of great things. So, if you would like to see what it is all about, come on by and see what it’s all about. It’s a low-key, fun, and friendly group. Lots of sharing and learning. Some things to look forward to: How about a PPNV shirt! We will be taking orders for your very own, fashionable yet comfortable PPNV shirts. Great to wear to your jobs and a wonderful way to spread the word about our fantastic organization. I hope everyone is having a great fall and enjoying those beautiful fall colors. See you soon!
