The Power of Education
First of all, I would like to thank you for my inclusion among Ingram's Power Elite, Class of 2003. I am both flattered and appreciative of this recognition. This speaks well of our University to be cited and included in consideration of the Greater Kansas City area.
I value both your friendship and the support you have provided to Central Missouri State University and Higher Ed. I welcome working together with Ingram's in the future.

An Impressive Program
This is a short note to reinforce one of Ingram's programs, "40 Under 40." Just this past week I had two fairly important Kansas Citians refer one of their younger associates to me with that designation, and no more--that was adequate in their minds to establish the gravitas of these two men.
You have established a very good brand name around that recognition. Keep up the good work.

Well Packaged
I've been a lone time resident of the Kansas City area and now live near Topeka. I've noticed the concerted effort Ingram's has made (and continues to make) to include the people, businesses and organizations on the periphery of the Kansas City area. The observance of State Line and the many competitng cities and govening bodies in the area has always hindered KC from progressive growth. I for one appreciative what Ingram's is doing to include the players throughout the greater Kansas City metropolitan area. Keep up the good work--it's being noticed.

Marketing Influence
A very special "thank you" to Ingram's for the publication of the article, Marketing Influence, in the March issue. We were all impressed with the level of detail and the positive focus of the article relative to the marketing program. And, thank you for providing enough copies so that every student has one. They are very proud of their project and proudly share the article about it with others. Without your support the article would not have happened. So, again, thank you for your support. It was very much appreciated.

Better With Time
Thank you for the opportunity to write an article in your April 40 Under 40 issue. This year's 40 Under 40 edition of Ingram's Magazine looked better than ever. Congrats on a great product and a great magazine.

Thank you for including me in the 2003 "40 Under 40" class. I am honored to be a part of such a distinguished group. It was a pleasure to get to know you both better and be recognized in editorial is such a well-read and respected business publication. Also, I had a wonderful time at both 40 Under 40 receptions.
