Buyers Guide background</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'd love to see a return of the Buyers
Guide. This has been discussed several times over the last few years
with the current and previous executives. The issue seems to be one of
priorities, as is typical in an all volunteer organizations, and solving the
biggest problems first. If I remember correctly the problems have been
as such:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1. Get the KF delivered consistently so
advertisers will come forth</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. Make sure we have enough money (the expanded
pages of the BG cost quite a bit more)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3. Find an ad manager to coordinate, solicit and
manage advertisers.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4. Solve all these problems 8-12 months in
advance so advertisers believe that the problems are solved</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>5. Select a target month, back up 6 months and
launch the solicitation campaign. (this means 14-18 months after #1-4 are
solved)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The BG used to be in March, but advertisers felt
that this was not the month people needed the information for their buying
decisions. A new target of August or Sept was selected, but it
overlapped with the expanded Nats issue. I think we are at step 4 now
and if a target month could be selected, maybe we can step to 5.</FONT></DIV>

could get the "Buyers Guide" published again. I joined the NSRCA in 1995
just get the Buyers Guide so I could find where to buy the real pattern
stuff. All of the cottage industry designers and builders were in the
buyers guide. I don't know of any single place or resource to look for the
current pattern kits, engines, parts and accessories. The information is
scattered all over the place. New flyers interested in joining and starting
in pattern don't have a single place where they can look and drool over
the "Real Pattern " stuff.</SPAN></FONT><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>
