GASSA 2008 Membership Directory
Great News!
GASSA is planning to compile, print and distribute a 2008 Membership Directory. All members in good standing as of October 1, 2008 will be included and will receive one copy by mail on or before February 1, 2009. Additional copies may be purchased.
Update your membership profile. Please update you membership profile by requesting the form from me and emailing the information to me at gassa1@bellsouth.net or via US mail to: Suite 260 #510; 3162 Johnson Ferry Road; Marietta, GA 30062 or via fax: 678-264-0968, no later than October 1, 2008. (I know that some of you may have furnished some of this information previously, but please take the time to complete the form so that I have accurate data on each member. If you do not wish to be included in the directory, please check the NO box and return your completed form.)
Interested in Advertising? Vendors and suppliers – reach out to all GASSA members and ensure that your company name is readily visible to all members throughout 2009! Anyone interested in advertising and/or sponsoring may do so. Please request the advertising form which explains the advertising rates and respond to me via email. Or, contact me by phone to discuss any questions that you may have. Also, call me if you would like to discuss “custom” advertising opportunities. Cut-off date for all advertising: October 1, 2008
Directory Format The directory will be similar to previous GASSA directories – it will be a 5 ½” x 8 ½” booklet format with two main sections: 1) Alphabetical by Member – all members listed alphabetically by member name with contact info plus facility location listings or company information in two columns. (Basically, a “white pages” formatted section); and, 2) Vendors by Product/Service Heading – all vendors/suppliers listed by product/service heading plus vendor inside page ads. (Basically, a “yellow pages” formatted section.) Thank you for your continued support.
Sincerely,
Chuck Manley
