ITEX.com member benefits

Dear Valued Member, Crystal House Awards and Engraving would like to do 100k in ITEX sales this year with five or six ITEX members that are interested in buying awards on a regular basis. Food for thought: you can purchase (at 100% trade) high quality crystal (not acrylic) in stock awards in several price ranges and styles and give them to your best clients for reaching and sustaining purchase levels. You can also motivate your sales and service staff as they  compete for best of the best awards! Perhaps you can use these to support a networking group or charity you are involved in? Why not resell them for cash or give as spiffs to your customers so they can reward their customers and staff? If you would like to brainstorm about the possibilities please let me know. In this weekly feature... Take a vacation, kitchen cabinets, catering for St. Pat's day, or advertising in Golf Chicago....ITEX choices cover most every category of need.    Enjoy, Karen, Jackie and Erin (our newest team member) Featured Businesses of the Week Connect. Trade. Save.
