ACTIF Needs YOU!
As a vendor to the vehicle rental industry, your value to ACTIF is immeasurable. ACTIF is always looking for ways to connect members with the vendors whose products and services can help the rental operator succeed.
As part of this mission, we are launching the maiden voyage of ACTIF's Cruise Seminar to the BAHAMAS on February 5-8, 2004, and ACTIF would greatly appreciate any contribution you can make to this event. With your help, ACTIF can enhance the cruise experience and help attendees understand the value you have added to the rental industry.
Check your schedule and see if you can join us for this unique experience. While on board, ACTIF will provide rental industry professionals with educational seminars.
Please take a moment to review the list of sponsorship opportunities below. Please contact Maggie Tatton, Associate Director, at (888) 200-2795 more information or to register for a sponsorship. We would really enjoy your company on the cruise, but even if you can not make it perhaps you can find a way to sponsor some portion of the event.
