The party will be held on Sunday night, August 3, 2008 from 6:30PM until 12:30 AM at the Times Square Arts Center (formerly the Laugh Factory), 669 8th Avenue, NYC 10036--about an 8 minute walk from the Marriott Marquis.

There will be a smoking suite for Cigar PEG members across the street at the Paramount Hotel and a non-smoking suite at the Marriott Marquis. Your "Cigar PEG 2008" ribbon is your ticket to get into either of the suites.

Dale Irvin's Uncensored Convention Update--Avish Parashar, Auctioneer--Graham Davies' (UK) Dick Jokes This year there will be two (2) Cigar PEG Suites, one at the Marriott Marquis (non-smoking) and a suite at the Paramount Hotel (on the smoking floor) which is directly across the street from the Marriott. Sponsoring the Cigar PEG Suite at the Paramount Hotel for the entire NSA Convention:
And it can work for you too, even if you are just getting started or only sell a few items each month. "I thought fulfillment companies were only for speakers who sold hundreds of units a month. That's not true with Virtual Media. They've made the pain-in-the-neck part of product selling so simple that I'm able to spend more time marketing them and watching my bank account grow! Virtual Media warehouses all my items, reprints products when they run low, and handles all the drama of shipping orders that come through my website or when I need back-of-the-room products at an out-of-town location. They don't require large product orders so I only order in the quantities I need. I should have started working with them sooner. I wish the rest of the speaking business were this easy!" ~ Kirstin Carey, President NSA-MAC, Cigar PEG Board of Director http://www.virtualmedia.cc/ Sales--Phone: 866 MEDIA 40 (866 633 4240), Email: sales@virtualmedia.cc Cigar PEG T-Shirts for 2008--Your Admission Ticket to the Party.

The Cigar PEG is not one of NSA's official PEGs, just the most fun and philanthropic of any in NSA's history--official or unofficial. Still Need More Convincing?
