December 2006

Hello and welcome to the holiday edition of Massive eNews!

As December is typically a time for gift giving, our article this month involves tradeshow giveaways. To learn how to maximize the effectiveness of your giveaways, read on.

We have also included a recipe for the Massive 2006 signature drink - the PEERtini! In the spirit of holiday fun, why not whip up some at the staff Christmas party this year?

All fun and games aside, the team here at Massive would like to thank all of our sponsors, exhibitors, and show participants for their support in 2006. We look forward to working with you in the coming year. For those of you who have not yet signed up to participate in Massive 2007, please contact us and see how we can help you kickstart your New Year!

Happy Holidays!

Sincerely,
Lindsay Smith, Executive Producer
