| Our Last Networking Meeting and Seminar at University of Phoenix |
 |
We had an excellent turn out at the last VBNF event on Nov 23, 2006. Over 60 people participated at the event hosted at the U of Phoenix, Vancouver Campus. Thanks to Sabina Tan and Lisa Duong for the sponsorship and the set up of the event. Of course, we need to thank our speaker, Dr. Albert Wong, who delivered an informative seminar on: Capitalizing on Cultural Factors: How to Successfully Market in North America . The audience greatly enjoyed the seminar and they requested a return engagement.
We will arrange to have Dr. Wong provide more stimulating seminars at our events. For those of you interested please check on our website for announcements. In addition we would like to also mention that the University of Phoenix provides a wide variety of business classes that will be sure to meet your needs. Again, those interested can go to their website. |

CMY Designs creates websites that can help you promote and run your business more effectively and easily. Moreover, they can build a website that can generate revenue with minimal effort on your part. You can just sit back, put your feet up and collect money from our affiliated marketing program.
The affiliated Marketing program is not new. Many people collect money from their affiliated partners when they are able to bring businesses to their website through your website. With Google’s Ad Word and Ads, you get paid when visitors from your site use the Google Search box to look for information or click on the Ads by Google. CMY designs can help you set up the account with either Google or any other affiliated company. Anyone interested in this program can contact Alex at 604-422-8878 for more information:
