ASIS International 57th Annual Seminar and Exhibits

Dear Chapter Leadership:

We need your help to spread the word about the ASIS International 57th Annual Seminar and Exhibits (ASIS 2011) taking place September 19-22 in Orlando.

This is an important opportunity for ASIS members and peers from around the world to meet face-to-face, share information, see the latest technology, and find solutions to the dynamic challenges facing security professionals and the industry. We would like for you to help by promoting this event to your chapter members—Can we count on your support?

We've developed some tools and sample email templates to make it easy to spread the word about ASIS 2011 and invite your chapter colleagues to participate in this world-class event. Visit the Chapter Resources section of the ASIS website to get:

• Web banners that you can post to your website and use in email signatures. Please link the banners to www.asis2011.org.
• Email messages that you can personalize from your chapter or to personal contacts.

Email messages for August and September will be available on the website in late July.

We suggest you send one email each month, beginning in June, to your chapter members as well as your outside network of security colleagues. Or use the Spread the Word email at any time (after August 12, just delete the early-bird registration information). In addition, please share news of the program—with a link to www.asis2011.org—on any social networking sites you use for business purposes.

Your chapter's assistance in helping to make this event a success is very much appreciated.

If there are any additional materials or information you require, please contact Member Services atasis@asisonline.org or +1.703.519.6200.

We look forward to seeing you in Orlando, September 19-22!

Thank you so much!
