PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
By Gary M. Fee

SUPPORT THOSE WHO SUPPORT YOU

As we kick off another year, I would like to start 2004 by bringing attention to our supplier members. As most of us already know, the home based agency and independent contractor have become a very big distribution channel for our suppliers. In order to keep this momentum and be able to continue this highly recognized and supported part of our distribution system, it is key that OSSN Members support our Allied Supplier Members.

OSSN Allied Supplier members have been extremely supportive of the home based seller of travel community. I bring this awareness to our OSSN members as a reminder that times have changed not only as a result of OSSN’s efforts in the market place but also by the support provided to OSSN and our members by the supplier community. I have always stated that, “The Buck Stops With The Supplier.” This philosophy will continue to be paramount as our suppliers continue to help support your business.

In the Members Only section of OSSN.com you may find our Allied Suppliers on page: www.ossn.com/secure/resources/suppliers/index.asp. Please make it a point to “book mark” this page in your browser. The list of Allied Supplier members in this section is fairly extensive. OSSN has listed our suppliers by “niche” and “destination” to help you find a particular supplier that wants your business. This list continues to grow every week so members will need to check this section often when seeking a particular supplier for your clients.

If, for any reason, you have a problem contacting or working with any of these suppliers listed, please report the situation to OSSN so we may remedy the situation. OSSN encourages members that work with suppliers who are not listed in our Allied Supplier section to ask these suppliers to consider joining OSSN! By increasing the “allied supplier” membership, we are also increasing the support that suppliers are ready to offer to OSSN members across the globe! For more details on this opportunity for suppliers they may visit our Allied Supplier section on page: www.ossn.com/suppliermembers/sup_intro.asp

Have A Very Successful 2004 and Good Selling!!
