An Open letter to All Airline Customers:
Our country is facing a possible sharp economic downturn because of skyrocketing
oil and fuel prices, but by pulling together, we can all do something to
help now.
For airlines, ultra-expensive fuel means thousands of lost jobs and severe
reductions in air service to both large and small communities. To the broader
economy, oil prices mean slower activity and widespread economic pain. This
pain can be alleviated, and that is why we are taking the extraordinary step
of writing this joint letter to our customers. Since high oil prices are
partly a response to normal market forces, the nation needs to focus on increased
energy supplies and conservation. However, there is another side to this
story because normal market forces are being dangerously amplified by poorly
regulated market speculation.
Twenty years ago, 21 percent of oil contracts were purchased by speculators
who trade oil on paper with no intention of ever taking delivery. Today,
oil speculators purchase 66 percent of all oil futures contracts, and that
reflects just the transactions that are known. Speculators buy up large amounts
of oil and then sell it to each other again and again. A barrel of oil may
trade 20-plus times before it is delivered and used; the price goes up with
each trade and consumers pick up the final tab. Some market experts estimate
that current prices reflect as much as $30 to $60 per barrel in unnecessary
speculative costs.
Over seventy years ago, Congress established regulations to control excessive,
largely unchecked market speculation and manipulation. However, over the
past two decades, these regulatory limits have been weakened or removed.
We believe that restoring and enforcing these limits, along with several
other modest measures, will provide more disclosure, transparency and sound
market oversight. Together, these reforms will help cool the over-heated
oil market and permit the economy to prosper.
The nation needs to pull together to reform the oil markets and solve this
growing problem.
We need your help. Get more information and contact Congress by visiting

you can incorporate to make your bridal show experience more profitable.
Using a straight-forward approach, Julia will cover the elements involved.
She will take you through pre-show planning, designing a booth that attracts,
how to qualify which brides you will spend time with, what actions at the
show will best represent your business and steps to make follow-up easier.

I would like to
introduce you to the Wedding Solutions
Regional Director program. As you probably know, Wedding
Solutions Publishing Inc. is the largest and most respected publishing company
of wedding books in America. For the last 15 years, we have helped millions
of brides and grooms plan their perfect wedding through our 30 best selling
wedding books. And WeddingSolutions.com
is one of the top three most popular wedding planning websites.
We are now creating
a network of professional wedding consultants that will become WeddingSolutions.com Regional Directors.
These consultants will represent WeddingSolutions.com
at bridal shows, wedding mixers, and perhaps at upcoming wedding planning
seminars in their area.
These professionals
will be endorsed and promoted by Wedding
Solutions.com as consultants who meet or exceed their clients’
expectations and who offer excellent standards of service and professionalism.
We are currently
seeking for a top wedding consultant in your area. As a WeddingSolutions.com
Regional Director you will receive the following benefits:
a) You will be able
to represent yourself as the WeddingSolutions.com
Regional Director in your area. This will give added credibility
to your already successful business.
b) You will be able
to represent WeddingSolutions.com at all bridal shows in your area and receive
the leads from all the brides who enter to win a free wedding planning gift
offered at our booth during the show.
c) If allowed by
the show producer, you will be able to affix your business card on the back
of Wedding Solutions fliers that you distribute to brides during the show.
Enclosed is a copy of the flier that you would be handing out at bridal shows.
Please note that this flier has a space for you to attach your business card.
d) You will receive
a free advertising at WeddingSolutions.com (a $1,200
value)
e) You will also
receive free leads of Wedding
Solutions registered brides
within a 60-mile radius of your address (a $600 value)
f) You will be asked
to complete a free
online wedding planning certification course that will identify
you as a WeddingSolutions.com Certified Wedding Planning Specialist.
($900 value).
g) One of the biggest
benefits of this program is that you will be able to sell Wedding Solutions
best selling wedding planning books to bridal stores in your area. Once
you sell our books to a bridal store in your area, you will receive a 15%
commission on all the books purchased by that bridal store for as long as
you remain a Wedding Solutions regional director.
For example, a book that retails for $30.00, you will sell it to the bridal
store at $15.00 and you will get $2.25 commission. If the bridal store
orders 200 books in a year, you would make $450 per year for one single
store, just for presenting our books once to that store. Imagine what
you can make if you sell our books to 20 or 30 bridals stores in your area.
You will also be able to sell our books at bridal shows in your area.
