Sewing Machines and Sergers

Welcome To Janome Institute 2011- Your Education Connection September 3 7, at The Marriott World Center Resort In Orlando i Expand Your Horizons j

How about some good news, for a change?

The economic recovery has been a mixed bag for the sewing industry. Customers are buying... but they’re also holding onto their purse strings a little more tightly. They’re taking longer to make that big machine purchase. But, we’ve clearly seen, when they’re excited about a machine, they will gladly make the purchase.

And that’s good news. Because at Janome Institute 2011 we’re going to unveil a machine that will cause your customers to be very excited. This top-of-the-line machine is going to redefine Janome sewing the way we did with the MC8000, MC10000, and MC11000. And it’s going to cause quite a stir among your customers. Believe me, people you’ve never seen before are going to stop by your store just to see it in person. You better have your demo ready, because you’ll be doing it a lot. (It wouldn’t be a bad idea, either, to order some extra cash register tape.)

On Opening Night, Saturday, September 3rd, this machine will be revealed for the first time ever to attendees of Janome Institute 2011 in Orlando. You’re going to want to be one of them. Because starting the next day, you’ll get to try out the new machine and get the sales training and product knowledge you need to become a certified dealer.

You’ll be able to start selling it less than a month after you return home. This is important, because immediately after our Opening Night launch in Orlando, we’ll be unveiling the machine to the world via a pre-registered, web-based presentation. Customers will be waiting for you when you get home.

Because of the intense interest from dealers and distributors from around the world, Janome is designating this event as an International Institute. You’ll be rubbing shoulders with more than a thousand Janome dealers from 30 different countries. It’s going to be a rare chance to hear from and mingle with attendees from Europe, Asia, CIS America and Oceania.

While the new machine will be the highlight of Institute 2011, it will be just the tip of the iceberg as far as education. You’ll be able to choose from over 50 classes on everything from the latest software to machine maintenance to selling machines in pairs. Look through the complete class schedule in the following pages.

For those of you who were with us when we were here in 2009, you know the resort where we’ll be staying is really a destination in itself. As the world’s largest Marriott facility, it sits on 200 acres of lush, natural landscaping, including a championship golf course and a full-service spa. It has its own tropical lagoon formed by an amazing complex of six pools, waterfalls, water slides and whirlpools. All this... and only two miles from Disney World. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, but with so much to do, you won’t want to spend too much time there.

We’ve structured the schedule so you’ll finish most days by 5:00, giving you time to enjoy the nearby attractions should you choose to do so. And wind down a little from all the excitement.

Don’t miss out on immediate sales when we introduce this amazing new machine. Join us at Janome Institute 2011, September 3rd through the 7th in Orlando, Florida.

Expand Your Horizons!

Sincerely,

Senior VP, Janome America Randy Thomas, 2 What’s happening at Institute?
