[nabentre] Good morning all

Hello Harley:

In my signature it lists my website. I am a Travel Agent.  Started my business officially October 2009.  

I have have a website all about my services. I specialize in the usual travel stuff as airlines, cruising, Disney Destinations.

But my niche to make me stand out is helping the Blind and Visually Impaired to travel to places that they want to go, making sure they the places are accessible.  And also to educate and encourage the blind to travel and enjoy their lives and not sit back and let it pass them by.

I have a few clients right now, and I am doing a couple of fundraising group cruises, such as NAGDU, which information will  be posted soon, and with the Sierra Club here in NY.  As well as a few other clients.

I am also doing some educating to the sighted about blind people traveling.  In fact, I am holding a training seminar via webinar with the company that I work with Montrose Travel to educate the Travel agents like myself who are home based agents to reach out to the blind community and to offer services, what to ask when booking something like a cruise or a resort get away.  Marion Gwizdala the President of NAGDU is working with me on this.  It will take place on the 25th of this month.

I also have a newsletter, and that if you or anyone on the list is interested is go to my website which is here and go to the contact us page and register it comes out once a month right now.

And I have a blog, which I post daily and weekly specials for travel blog.echevarriatravel.com if you subscribe to that you will get updates in your e-mail box as well.

I came on the list to get help in way like asking accounting questions.

Maybe where to advertise, I don't have any print advertising right now accept for my business cards, and on facebook and twitter.  So maybe find out some alternatives.

And maybe ask for some business here as well.

Convention is coming up and I can do airline tickets for those that need them.

Currently, I hold the office of Treasurer of the Greater Long Island Chapter, also a member of NAGDU and the Diabetic Action Network.

I had a story in the November issue of the Braille Monitor, because I still hold my certification as a Medical Insurance Specialist.

Keep in touch.

  Hello Cheryl!
  What kind of contracting do you do?
  I'm also amazed that there is not much trafic here on this list...
  Many of us could probably help each other if there was more involvement!
  I've been doing music most of my life, since I was 3, and I'm 54.
  I Love my Work!
  I thank God for the talent to do what I do!
  I'm a self-employed musician that does Gospel, Jazz, and old favorites.

  I produce a free email newsletter telling about my music ministry.
  I have a section called, "Snapshot from the Heart."
  People get a free song each month.
  (it is an mp3.)
  I also do a 60 second wave file each week called "Monday Morning
  Motivational Minute."
  It has a separate email list.
  It is from a Christian perspective, and it is also free.

  If anyone is interested, you can email
  hcmusicmaker at gmail.com<mailto:hcmusicmaker at gmail.com>
  May you All have a Rambunctious and profitable 2010!
  Remember,
  "When it comes to thought, some people stop at nothing!"
  Blessings!
