Everything is packed. The planning team went over the final details. The conference programs created by May Advertising look absolutely wonderful. The surprise gifts are ready to go as are the gift bags.
Be sure to arrive close to 8am for the continental breakfast and expo.
And we don't want you to miss any of the kickoff keynote, "Wish Upon a Star...Act On It!" by Martha Carlson of The Bailey Group.
Martha will help us to get clear about how we will be using the day to make real progress toward our big goals. You'll then be able to choose the breakout sessions that will help you reach those goals.
We can't wait for tomorrow!

The gift bag value is already far higher than the conference cost
You might already be thinking that attending the conference will more than pay for itself by the way of business connections, learning, goal-setting and other perks including the gift bags.
Well, here is another perk that will brighten your day. We just received confirmation that everyone registering for the conference will receive a 100 free color copies and up to an hour of free design assistance from 7 Corners Printing. The total value of that gift alone is $125. When this is added into all of the other wonderful gifts that will be included, the value of the gift bags alone is several hundred dollars.
I'm not a math whiz but this adds up to one fantastic deal. We know you aren't registering just for the gift bags but it sure will be fun to receive them!

Question from a member: May my staff attend at the member rate?
We received the following question and wanted to share the response with everyone.
Q: I'm registered for the conference and would really like someone else from our staff to attend as well. Should she register at the member rate or the guest rate for the conference?
A: Thank you for asking! Since you are already a member, we are happy to have your fellow female staff register at the member rate so that you can make the most of the day. A few tips to get even more value:
1) We encourage you and your fellow staff to attend different breakout sessions to expand the information you'll receive.
2) We suggest sitting at different tables during the keynotes and luncheon so that representatives from your business can meet as many people as possible.
3) Schedule a time to debrief the experience within the next week following the conference with your fellow staff. Repeating the information while it is still fresh will make it stick for you, while being useful to staff who weren't at the conference or the same breakout sessions. You can then also share your action plans for the big goals you focused on at the conference.
When your staff registers at: http://winconference2010.eventbrite.com/, please ask them to include your name in the field that asks how they learned about the conference. That way, it will be clear why they are registering at the member rate. Thank you!
