			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Have you been using the networking opportunities provided to you by the association?  Did you know…</strong></p>
<p>Your company may provide articles to be printed in the Habitat Newsletter that goes out to all members?   You get great business visibility with this one!</p>

<p>You can stand at the “Meet ‘N’ Greet Table at the General Membership Luncheons and display your brochures, cards, etc and shake hands with every visitor to our luncheon?</p>
<p>You could be a membership greeter at a luncheon and welcome guests 	upon their arrival?</p>
<p>You know you have the opportunity to network with other owner, manager and<br />
Maintenance members when you are involved on a committee?</p>

<p>You know that you can provide door prizes for giveaways at the general membership meetings for recognition?</p>
<p>You could serve on the PSC (Product Service—Vendor Committee) and provide your input on creating new ways to encourage owner and vendor relationships?</p>
<p>You can purchase a sponsorship package that gets your name and/or logo recognition at every luncheon and event of the association?  And, that all packages include a tradeshow booth in our annual show as well as the ability to pay the package out on a quarterly basis?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>	In the summer of 2009, Chip Wade with HGTV and Mohawk Carpet Mills tried a new experiment on a revolutionary new carpet called Smartstrand.  They, along with The Dallas Zoo, put a rhinoceros named Ricko on it for two weeks.  Then with regular steam cleaning they attempted to clean the carpet-it cleaned up beautifully!<br />
	In August of 2010 they tried an experiment 10 times the size of the original experiment.  They put five elephants, three camels and one rhinoceros on the carpet for two weeks, for a total of 45,000 pounds or the equivalent of 5 cars!  Once again, with regular steam cleaning it cleaned up beautifully!<br />
	Smartstrand has been endorsed by the Carpet and Rug Institute as being the best fiber invented since the 1950’s.  It even surpasses nylon!<br />
	Now Mohawk has constructed a Smartstrand for apartments.  It is available at Gowdy Flooring.  You can call John Boydstun at 679-0056 for a free sample.  Try your own experiment and then have your favorite cleaning company clean it and see the results for yourself!</p>

11 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.<br />
2011 BUSINESS EXCHANGE!</p>
<p>What is the 2011 Business Exchange? We like to call it a Flipped Up Tradeshow or Speed Dating with a Vendor! In a traditional Tradeshow, Apartment Association Product Service Vendors purchase booths on the Tradeshow floor and our members visit each booth for information. We’re flippin’ it for the Business Exchange! Our Decision Making Owners and/or Management Company Representatives have agreed to have a seat and allowing the participating PSC members to come by their table and visit with them for 90 seconds to make introductions and let you know about their company.  A list of each vendor participating will be provided to owners.  This can help you prepare in case you have special questions for a particular company. The Exchange is free for all Owner and Management Company Representatives.  The first 25 Product Service Vendors who sign up to participate will receive a reduced rate of $50.00.  With over 25 Owner &#038; Management Representatives in attendance, you will be paying only $2.00 per member to have your potential target audience in one place! The Business Exchange is open only to those vendors who have paid the registration fee to attend.  For more information or to register, call the AAP office at (806) 355-6391 or email us at info@aapanhandle.com</p>
