Our most popular slogan also is the difference between active members, and
in-active. Being an active member is not only self gratify, but offers many
other indirect rewards. There are a lot of fun and educational events being
planned for you. Please take part in the planning
and other activities. We challenge all our St. Louis Chapter members to get
involved, and see how AFE improves your
life.
Commentary:
The Internet and networking, improves communication,
therefore the results. Email is only an improvement over snail mail, if
you reply sooner than you would with conventional mail. Check you email daily,
respond at the latest, a couple days, and you will improve your rapport
with mutually beneficial contacts.
