Hi Everyone!

Sorry it’s been so long since I’ve had a chance to write! It seems like the past few months have just FLOWN by! This year has started off with a bang—I can’t believe it’s already March. It’s been great to get back into trade show season. So far this year my travels have taken me to Tampa, Dallas and L.A.,—not a bad first couple of stops! I really love being out on the road, mostly because I get to escape Cleveland weather for a little while! It’s always nice to see some familiar faces out on the road as well. A special moment at a recent show was the recognition of our Sales Rep, Brenda Harper, as the Individual Vendor of the Year for the state of California. I was lucky enough to be at the awards banquet with Brenda and I couldn’t be more proud of her. YOU GO, GIRL!!!

This year has brought so many amazing things, but our most exciting is the launch of our new album line, Album Epoca. We recently hosted Emiliano and Andrea, two handsome Italian gentlemen from Photosi, the Italian company that manufactures Album Epoca. They spent a week with us teaching us every aspect of the new line. We are all SO excited about this new partnership. I even cried (yes I cried, our sales staff was witness to this…tears of joy, of course). They have given us every tool we need to help you, the photographer, make more money. Who doesn’t love that idea?!? We have had mini debuts of the product in Cleveland, Dallas, L.A. and Boston, and the response has been tremendous! If you are coming to WPPI this year make sure you stop by and see us, as that is the “official” launch of Album Epoca. I promise there will be lots to see.

Of course, Epoca isn’t the only thing I’m excited about this year. Each of our manufacturers is bringing something new to the table in 2008. Make sure you check out 360 to see what’s new and now from Renaissance, Maxima, Jorgensen and Tap—just to name a few! Click here check it out now!

Meanwhile, I’m off to North Carolina in a few days for the PPNC State Convention. Then it’s on to Viva Las Vegas for WPPI!!! As always I invite you to stop by, say hello, and check out what’s new from Albums Inc.!

Ciao!
Nicole
