Proud

Real Resorts and

in Canada

Dear David,
Hello and Happy September!
Well, tradeshow season is officially upon us and August
was certainly a crazy month with shows, but I absolutely
LOVE it because it's the perfect opportunity to see so
many of YOU. Thanks to everyone who stopped by the Real
Resorts and El Cid Resorts booths at the various shows to
say hello and to get the latest information. One thing
about this business is that it's never boring and things
are always changing, and of course I had lots of exciting
news and fantastic promotions to share with you.
(Freddie with Evelyn
from AMA Travel at Thomas Cook Show in Edmonton)
If you haven't seen me at a show yet, I will be at all of
the upcoming Addison Shows across Canada (all 9 of them),
so I will be coming to your city soon. You can click
HERE to check out the dates of the Addison Shows in
your city and to register. Please come by the booth to say
hello - it would be great to see you!
So you'll never guess who I ran into when I was in
Whitehorse last week. The
Prime Minister of Canada!!! He was staying at my
hotel and I met him in the lobby. How exciting, eh? No
matter what your political views are, it is definitely an
honour and a thrill to meet the Prime Minster of Canada.
I did get my picture taken with him but unfortunately the
PM's office hasn't emailed me the picture yet so maybe
I'll include it next month.
Anywho... I do have a Dixie update for you. You may
remember that last month I was complaining that I was
having no luck training Dixie to shake a paw.
Remember? I had been trying for months and months with
zero results. Well, Dixie went up to my parents place in
Kamloops (while I was on the road) and my Mom actually
taught her to shake a paw in LESS THAN A WEEK!!! I
couldn't believe it. Obviously it was the trainer and not
the trainee! My Mom is a retired school teacher so maybe
that had something to do with her success with Dixie. You
can see it for yourself
HERE.
Have a great September. I hope your office is busy with
lots of Mexico bookings!!! Please continue reading below
to learn about what is happening at both Real Resorts and
El Cid Resorts. There are some fantastic promotions
currently available, and you know how it is, the more you
know about the product the easier it is for you to SELL.
