As I was reviewing some of the pictures that were beingplaced in this Convention Happenings, I couldn’t help butthink what a wonderful experience we had. I have heardnothing but great comments about our recentConvention.

In talking to people and reviewing the 2010 Action Plans,I feel a tremendous amount of energy, excitement andcommitment focused on having an outstanding year.When people take the time to lay out their goals andaction plans, it is amazing what can happen. The key toaccomplishing goals is quite obvious. When it comes topersonal sales commitments, the number of productpresentations made will determine the sales volume. It isall based on your efforts. The top sales leaders alwaysmake the most presentations.

Our products are timely. They are the finest in the world.The more you show and explain the products, the moreresults you will have. When you are a great sales leader, itis easy to teach others by your example. This year it isimperative that we teach and train by our own leadership

As the sun began to set, the beautifulLady Windridge sat on the dockawaiting the arrival of her passengers.As the Carico guests arrived, theywere greeted by the captain and deckhands and welcomed aboard. Thenight was filled with fine dining andfun dancing, while sailing up anddown the Florida intra-coastal. It wasan opportunity of a lifetime to view themagnificent homes along thewaterway. Despite the frigidtemperatures, the group waselectrified by the music and dancedthrough the night.


White . . . blanco . . . blanc . . . It was thesame in any language. The white décorthroughout room virtually glistened andreflected like stars. When everyone arriveddressed in their best white ensembles, theroom came alive. For the brave at heart,there was a ski demonstration set up wherethe guests could simulate skiing inanticipation of the upcoming spring trip toColorado. The final night was filled withwonderful food and dancing to the live bandwith Will Bridges. It was a fitting farewellparty to wrap up the 2009 Carico WorldConvention.
