PPP  is a great program at any time, but especially right now.  Most participating vendors offer an additional 10% off your purchase.  That’s nice under normal circumstances, but during these harder times, it is even more important to save that extra cash! Often times, the vendors will offer a show special, too, and add that discount to your 10% discount you are already getting.  This is so helpful! It can mean an additional 5% discount or extended terms.  I am always looking for new vendors and the monthly newsletter (as well as the vendor list) are always giving me new vendors to explore! I love this! The PPP ZOOM calls this summer have been a great way to connect with other people in my industry and learn what is working for them.  I know these were started during a tough time as an extra way for PPP to help us, but I hope they continue.  Being a PPP member has definitely paid off for us BIG TIME!    

I have found the PPP community to be very helpful and encouraging during this trying time.  My first experience with PPP was the breakfast I attended at the 2019 January Las Vegas Market.  The networking was invaluable as I met other gift shop managers and listened to their ideas and experiences. Also, after listening to the vendors presentations, I bought from several that have been great additions to our shop.  As I have attended the morning coffee, read the network news, emailed questions, listened to presentations, and used some of the tools provided by PPP, I can honestly say it has made me better prepared and able to deal with our current situation.  Thank you for the amazing insights, up to date information, and professional details. Your organization has been a great resource for me and I look forward to utilizing it in the future.  Thank you!    

We have been members of PPP for a few years now. Last year, I was very happy to have saved $9,000 using the PPP program. But I thought to myself, how high can my savings go? Can I possibly double them in the next year? I am very pleased to announce that...I will have saved over $18,000! I exceeded my goal! PPP is an invaluable program. Saving on purchases I would have made anyway? Yes please!
