Dear Colleagues and Friends,
Budget for 2005 already
spent? Let me help. We want to make sure everyone can attend
this year, so we are offering you to attend our conference and pay the
conference fee in 2006. All you have to do is cover your travel
expenses in 2005.
Sign up now to
be sure you don't miss this opportunity. It will be a year or more
before another event like this will be on the West Coast and none will be
right on the Pacific Ocean again for a very long time.
The most
recognized names in the industry, Pink Elephant ITIL certifications, and STI
Knowledge's Certified Help Desk Management course, all in one event!
No other help desk event offers this combination.
Plus you may never get to hear this superior line-up
of speakers together again in one location.
Call us
now at 425-398-9292 and we will process your request to "PAY IN 2006"
My personal promise to you:
Just give us three full days for our expert speakers to deliver
the material that will contribute to your team's success.
If you don't feel you have gotten your money's worth after you attend
the entire event over 3 days, I will personally return the total investment
you paid for your conference registration, excepting any Pink Elephant
courses or STI Knowledge courses, special dinner events, or pre-conference sessions.
So what have you got to lose?
Sign
up now.
I hope you and
your team will join us in San Diego, on October 26th - 28th as we explore
how to chart the way forward and prepare for transforming your help desk
into a service desk.
Join us and let's get to work!!
Sincerely,
Ivy Meadors
CEO, High Tech High Touch Solutions, Inc.
