With over 400 ASI employees working hard to bring you the best membership experience in the industry, we hope you enjoy your new membership benefits for 2006. 

1. Checking a supplier’s business reputation is easier and even more accurate now. 

See Supplier Performance Ratings online, when you search for suppliers at www.asicentral.com. 

Also, distributor members rely on each other to keep rating suppliers so that those ratings stay current.  So ASI has made that easier too.  Just go to www.asicentral.com/supplierratings and rate each and every time you buy from an ASI supplier.  And if you are using the latest version of ESP^®Online, you can rate suppliers right from there — making it extremely convenient.

2. Use ASI InfoLine product search request service more!

It can be a challenge to find a specific promotional product for a client, especially when you are busy running the day-to-day activities of your business.  That’s why we’ve increased the amount of requests you can make to ASI  InfoLine. And now you can do that online as well.  Just complete the request form at www.asicentral.com/infoline and we will email you a presentation of products that meet your criteria, along with the contact information to order.

Each request normally costs $10.00.  Now, Basic Members receive ten FREE requests and Comprehensive Service Members receive 100 requests on the house.

3. Easily view and convert EPS files with an EPS Viewer at www.asicentral.com/epsviewer. 

Now you can upload and easily convert EPS files to jpeg files enabling you to view artwork files without investing in expensive software and share proofs with your customers to get fast approval. The file conversion is simple – one screen to upload and a second to view the file and download as a jpeg.  

4. Receive more educational materials!

ASI has partnered with industry marketing powerhouses such as David Blaise, Michele Bell and others to give you helpful refreshers on selling, direct marketing, advertising, copywriting and more.

5. All Basic Members will now receive the ASI Register^® Digest, access to www.asicentral.com and four free admissions to all five ASI Shows!

The Basic Membership package has been enhanced to include these necessities to grow your business.  You can use your ASI Register^® Digest in conjunction with www.asicentral.com as an up-to-date member directory and order from these ASI suppliers.  The two extra show admissions will allow more of your salespeople to take advantage of the 300+ free education sessions held throughout the year.  Ask your account manager for details at 1-800-546-1380.

And these are just the start of all the wonderful ASI experiences in store for you.  Here’s to a healthy and prosperous 2006!
