“I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic somewhere behind the morning.”
J.B. Priestly, British Writer & Broadcaster (1894 – 1984)
I can look around my office and home and find remembrances of the past everywhere. Sometimes simple objects, not necessarily meant to bear great significance, will remind me of beginnings and endings. In these moments, I consider what I have learned and where my choices in both my career and personal life have led me.
This month, there is a new beginning—a fresh start, so to speak. I can, with great joy, introduce you to Promo Marketing magazine and PromoMarketing.com. Both products are dedicated to you, the distributor salesperson, and aim to provide you with all the tools necessary to ensure success in your career. It is our mission to continue to produce the best available print content, as well as an online component that will act as a comprehensive portal to the promotional products industry, connecting you with ease to supplier specials, product and supplier searches, and supplier catalogs at the click of a button.
As you page through the issue, or click through our Web site, I hope you can see the culmination of hard work, preparation and care taken by each member of the Promo Marketing team. And maybe one day in the not-so-distant future, you will look around your office, pick up this issue and say to yourself, “Yes, this was a great new beginning.”
I encourage you to share your thoughts on the new Promo Marketing and PromoMarketing.com. Send me an e-mail at [email protected], or a quick note. We enjoy hearing from you. Your feedback is always appreciated and thoughtfully considered.
