Feel free to copy and paste the following text into a letter or email, and to use it at the basis for convincing your manager that you must be at the 2010 BAE Systems GXP User Conference and Professional Exchange!
Dear <insert-manager-name-here>:
I would like to represent our company at the 2010 BAE Systems GXP International User Conference and Professional Exchange, April 19 – 23, 2010, in San Diego, California. My attendance would benefit our company by ensuring effective use of our investment in GXP technology and software. The conference features an expansive technical program and workshops that will enhance my professional development and make me a more valuable asset to the company.
Attending this particular conference is a very cost-effective investment of money and time in comparison to other conferences and training. Purchased from a training provider, an equivalent number of hours of high-quality training would be worth thousands of dollars. This conference will give me three days of intense training and an opportunity to talk to the GXP experts – plus hands-on experience with new products and solutions.
The conference will allow me to learn from and work with the GXP technical staff who will be demonstrating practical software solutions, providing easy-to-use tips and techniques, and present insight into future direction of the products that will impact our organization. I will also be able to meet other GXP users and learn about their successful implementations, thus networking and learning from others in our industry.
If I pick up a couple of tips for improving my skills and boost my productivity by just five percent, that would result in saving two hours a week or more than 100 hours a year. And if I can share those improvements with the rest of our organization, the return on our conference investment would be multiplied.
Attendance benefits include:
- Ensure effective return on your investment in GXP geospatial-intelligence products
- Learn about automated processes and functionality for optimized workflows
- Participate in an expansive technical program
- Listen to keynote speeches presented by industry leaders
- See how customers are using GXP products in the field
- Advance professional development through targeted, GXP Professional Exchange
- Network with industry colleagues and forward-thinkers
- Experience emerging technologies
- Discover progressive exhibitor solutions
If I register by March 19, the company will save $100 off the registration fee, thus the conference cost will be the $695 registration fee plus travel expenses and a few days out of the office. Compared to the time and money we’ve spent on our applications, this is a minimal expense that would result in increased productivity and more effective use of our software resources.
If you have any questions about the technical program or any other aspect of 2010 BAE Systems GXP International User Conference, please let me know, and I will share the conference literature with you. You can also view the conference website at www.gxpuserconference.com. I hope you’ll agree that my attendance at this training and management event would make a significant positive impact on our organization.
Thank you for considering my request.
Sincerely,
<insert-your-name-here>
