I would like to personally invite you to attend our meeting next week.

I know it is an extremely busy time of year, but thought it was important to contact you about our upcoming meeting. For those wanting a competitive advantage, just a few hours of your time to attend is well worth the investment.

Why bother? I will give you 10 reasons:

1) Stable, consistent color comes from maintaining ink viscosity in control. Dave Larson's presentation will provide the tips, tricks and tools needed for viscosity management.

2) Sustainability is more than just a buzz-word, so don't treat it like one. Use sustainability as the foundation of your success. But how do you get a positive ROI from sustainable practices? Gavin Rittmeyer connects the dots between process automation, sustainability and profitability.

3) In a tough economy, many businesses struggle to stay afloat. Mergers and Acquisitions can create strategic business opportunities. Bob Cronin sorts out what is happening with M&A and provides valuable insight into how to prepare for them, whether you are buying or selling.

4) FTA Regional Networking meetings can save you $$$$$. Where else can you hear directly from top industry experts on a wide range of value-added topics selected specifically to make your operation more productive and profitable for such a low price (just $10 for FTA members or $20 for non-members)? You will not find a better value anywhere.

5) We bring the FTA to you. FTA Regional Networking Group meetings are convenient, presented in areas with heavy concentrations of printers and converters. FTA members can find out how to get more value from their memberships. Non-members can learn about the many programs, services and benefits available with FTA membership.

6) Our meetings offer invaluable training opportunities for your employees. What other venue affords you the luxury of such excellent technical content presented in just a few short hours without incurring extensive travel costs?

7) Our meetings provide tremendous opportunities to network with other industry professionals.

8) Food and beverages are provided by sponsoring companies/organizations. In this case, we are very appreciative to Label Expo / Labels & Labeling Magazine for their sponsorship.

9) You don't need to be an FTA member to attend.

10) Proceeds generated from admissions support the FFTA Scholarship fund, helping train the next generation of Graphic Arts Professionals. To date, FTA Great Lakes meetings have generated over $3000 for the scholarship fund.

We will look forward to seeing you there !!!
