Where
are they? That seems to see be the topic of
conversation in Vegas these days. The number
of lay offs and how competitive the job market
is not helping people to stay positive in
this economy. However one silver lining you
can look to is the jobs that are posted regularly
on AMA's
website. You can always post jobs
from your company and/or look for jobs on
our job board; just go on www.amalasvegas.com.
AMA
is a great networking tool to meet new business
prospects, potential employers or employees,
and a place to meet new friends. We have some
hot topics lined up this year and even a famous
surprise guest in the coming months (to be
announced), so keep attending the mixers,
luncheons, and events we put on and building
those contacts for yourself, and it's bound
to pay off. Also, stay positive, check our
AMA site each day for new events posted and
remember that it's only up from here.

AMA
Las Vegas Testimonials
|
 |
"AMA
has been a great way for me to learn
about different marketing tools and
topics through the monthly luncheon
and allows me to meet and develop relationships
with professionals from industries other
than my own. I receive the Marketing
News, attend luncheons and mixers and
really use my membership to keep me
involved. The Marketing E-news also
is great to keep you up to date on what
is going on in the field.."
Lisa
Davis, University of Nevada, Las Vegas

"I
have been involved with the AMA as a
board member the last two years. I believe
that you will find our organization
to be one of the more friendly groups
in the Valley. I am very appreciative
of all of the knowledgeable speakers
that we bring in which help us all learn
more about our profession. Our mixers
offer a great setting for networking
with other marketing professionals.
"

Kozinski, President of Sky High Marketing

"I
attend many networking events here in
Las Vegas, as well as being a member
of several networking organizations.
After only one visit to an AMA luncheon,
I became a member. The benefits of the
group are great. The group of members
are highly qualified, professionals
with the goal of doing business within
the AMA organization and they represent
many well know companies in Las Vegas
and Henderson. AMA has a wonderful venue
for the luncheons and the after hours
mixers are a lot of fun. I would recommend
any business professional to experience
AMA."
