Thank you very much for your Membership. You have made an excellent decision to join in the continuing efforts of CompWellness Network in the Metro Denver region, as well as the US.

As the only multiple-modality, Holistic Healing Academy in the Denver-Boulder area, we have the mission of expanding Complementary Healthcare via public information, media assistance and publication, as well as inter-association cooperation/cross-referral. Thanks for being part of our mission.

Now take full advantage of your Membership in 2002 ...

Exposure

Your listing is in our Metro Denver printed journal as well as on our online Members List. Please check it once in a while for accuracy and updates:

• Denver Metro printed journal - usually followed by either your "Other Modalities" OR your "Promotional Line"
• Online - your "Other Modalities" AND the variation of the "Promotional Line."

This listing can be addressed directly as CompWellness.biz/members-2005.htm#yourname (yourname is as shown in the listing - with NO blank spaces between your names). You may also address the list by modality as CompWellness.biz/members-2005.htm#modalityname (also with NO blank spaces in the modality name). Try it!

If you have a web ad, page or site on CompWellness.biz or elsewhere, check it regularly for accuracy and functionality.

Tell everyone about your web listings and ad/page/site - email them with the new address - they want to know!

Proudly display your ads and articles. Mount them on an 11" x 17" foam core or sturdier board, or frame them in your office. On the board, glue a plastic pocket for brochures or cards, and you have a tremendous, portable credibility builder that greatly increases your referrals and encourages new clients to call.

Proudly display the round CompWellness Network membership logo - shows you are a leading provider. Download from here (right click then "Save Picture As" to your Pictures Directory or your Desktop). Add to your promotional materials, business cards, webpage, website, newsletters. If you want a small variation or color separations, just email or call.

• Remind them that we are providing wonderful education for the community, which helps build their business
• Add that we only enroll highly-recommended practitioners and businesses, and ...
• They can feel very comfortable referring or pointing to the the Members in the journal or on the website.

Other Suggestions to GET THE MOST out of your Membership

See a nearly complete list of your benefits at the Membership page: www.CompWellness.biz/join.htm#Benefits.

Marketing

Modify your intake interview or form to ask not "Who referred you?" but "How/Where did you hear about us?" Provide multiple choices for all the ways a client could have seen your name or materials. You'll be positively surprised at the number of ways you have been exposed to new clients!

Upgrade your marketing materials to full color at no additional expense. Our full-color, indelible-ink printer, as well as our marketing savvy and design, will make your marketing materials stand out in the crowd and sing! We do this as a service to Members for about 25%-35% of normal full-color costs.

See www.CompWellness.biz/Comm/mrktmms.htm for examples and pricing. Note: a letter-size, heavy-stock page with a full-color scene background, cut vertically makes a unique and stunning statement of who you are.

Articles and Chapter Guidelines

Guidelines for the printed CW journal, online Wellness eJournal or add to existing chapters in the Complementary Healing eGuide are at www.CompWellness.biz/articles.htm. Your article or updated chapter will be summarized in and linked from the online 21st Century Wellness eLetter to more than 600 subscribers.

Graphics or a web location for graphics would be appreciated.

Recommendation Rewards

Each new member that you recommend earns you one-half month of their membership price towards other services - cards, brochure, flyers, web ad or page, journal ad, extended consultation or membership extension.

If you simply send an email or make a 30-second warm-up call / voice mail, as well as call me or copy me on the email, when you've made the call, the reward is doubled to one month. Example message:

"I am a Member of the local and national CompWellness Network. It is (an excellent) Holistic Healing Academy, and Kenton H Johnson, the Director, is (credible), so give a listen when he calls."

So keep those recommendations coming - Name, Credentials, Modality, location, phone, email (if available)

Thank You

It is a pleasure working with the dedicated, pioneering professional that you are. Thank you so much for your participation and trust that we make a difference!
