Pwna????????

[Ron Musgraves]

Did everyone get the brochure for the PWNA convention? i got mine today, nice brochure.

 

[Jon]

Ron I got mine too but I also sent in a nice long letter explaining why I have chosen not to renew.

It went into great detail of things they do that do not benefit most pressure washers.

Example:

The new discount shipping rates, how many pressure washers ship things?

That discount should be for us from the vendors so we can benefit on a lower shipping rate.

Not going into the whole thing but that is a good example.

Now what about that brochure, cost a lot of $$$ so you know they are making it big time, no one spends more then they make on stuff like that.

That trip would cost me $3500 plus-nice mailing, but not for me. For that amount of money you could have a first class vacation for a week with air and so on.

[Dan Flynn]

I didn't get one. Which is weird, I usually get 2 or 3 of the same mailing over a week or 2 ??????

 

[David Saulque]

I got your two, Dan!!!!!!!!!!!!

David

Try the canister rather than the pump.--good tip.

 

[Jon]

David it is quite normal for the pwna to send out 2,3 or more of the same thing to me, had I not trashed them I would have been more then happy to send Dan F. all he wants.

Could it be they just don't love Dan F.??? [boing] [boing]



Ron I did not know you joined, last I heard from you here was you were not going to join because they refused to help get a chapter going for us people in he West Coast, what made you change your mind?

 

[Ron Musgraves]

just on the mailing list , jon

 

[Mike Hughes]

From what I have heard, although those brochures look really good, they actually cost them very little.

 

[Ethan]

They are pretty cheap compared to what "we" would pay.

Non-Profit Org. recieve serious discounts on postage, printing, etc...

 

[Ron Musgraves]

I would imagine business member’s support some costs. I would certainly hope so. I posted this not to bash the pwna but just to see how many of us know about the org. and get these brochures.

A couple weeks back I got and e-mail of a person taking on a new position at the pwna, how many got that e-mail?

 

[Scott Stone]

I feel so deprived, No e-mail, no brochure, nothing. I think that I will go in my corner and cry.

[Jon]

Aww Ron,

I did not take it as bashing them but just mentioning you got stuff from them.

Yes I got the letter about the new membership lady.

Perhaps she might be able to change things and make it better, if only she is left to do her thing without the big wigs watching over her.

Poor Scott, want someone to send you a box of tissue?

 

[Cali]

Guess they forgot me too, Scott. Haven't gotten and email, or a brochure.

Kendra

 

[Dave Olson]

Yes, got both, e-mail and brochure!

[Clean County]

I also got both e-mail and brochure and my membership has been expired since feb.

[Fleet Washer]

I have thought about joining but can't figure out for the life of me what the heck they can do for me.

David has this been the problem why a good organization has not risen from the ashes.

The expense to run a national convention is just to large?

This is why only the new folks desperate for education can attend?
