There's a New SIG in Town

In March 2008, the Direct Marketing Special Interest Group (DM SIG) began meeting to discuss issues related to the field of direct marketing. RAMA launched this new SIG to better serve the evolving needs of marketers in the Greater Rochester area.

Members of the DM SIG are:

• Jenny Champeau, Unisys (Chair)
• Betsy Chapman, LaBella Associates
• Rob Ewanow, Garlock Sealing Technologies
• Christina Johnson, Erdman Anthony
• Douglas Lackey, Xerox
• Brian Rapp, Roberts Communications
• Janet Roy, The College at Brockport
• Sara Weet, Unisys

We need your input!

The DM SIG is charged with providing relevant information, events and insights to help RAMA members increase their direct marketing knowledge, understanding and effectiveness.

Whether your direct marketing intersts focus on the big picture only, or involve the day-to-day tactical details, or are anywhere in between, we want to hear from YOU.

The DM SIG is conducting a brief online survey to get your input on topics and activities that interest you. When you receive the survey, please take a moment to complete it. Your responses will help us plan upcoming events that will benefit you.

Please contact Jenny Champeau at Unisys if you would like more information or have questions about the RAMA DM SIG.

Thank you.
