•  Making a Difference: New Opportunities for Purchasing Print Media
  9th Annual Print Oasis Print Buyers Conference & Exhibit  - July 19 & 20, 2010 * National Press Club * Washington, DC
  Print Oasis 2010 offers an opportunity of a lifetime. Come to our event in Washington, DC and learn the legislative issues that have a major impact on buying companies this year. In the past, the focus on new technologies and industry speakers has had great value, but our conference takes a whole new approach this year. You’ll learn big picture issues that have a direct impact on your bottom line. You’ll find out how networking is no longer the “soft and nice to have” skill that it used to be – you’ll learn how it can save your job or help you find a new one. What I believe will be most beneficial to you in these tough times is hearing actionable advice from the trenches – from top print buyers and marketers. But what’s exciting about this year is that we add a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn how congress works, how to educate your company on the salient issues that affect print prices and availability and actually give you the opportunity to petition Congress – we’ll teach you how! Print Buyers Online.com is introducing legislation that gives tax breaks to companies that purchase sustainable print. We’ll teach you how to protect your company and be a voice for your media communications.
  
  Print Oasis 2010 Print Buyers Conference will be held in the heart of Washington, DC, right where the action takes place with trucking, postal, paper and media issues and more. Join us at the revered National Press Club for the conference that’s fresh, smart, and completely on target for print buyers and printers alike. Learn strategies that you can immediately implement within your company and return from the conference with information that makes you a valued resource.
