'TEAMONe' Is ASCnet Chapter of the Year
Award Recognizes Excellence in Membership Advancement Activities

ORLANDO, Fla. (Oct. 19, 2007)- The European Agency Managers Operators Network (TEAMONe), the Applied User Group in Great Britain, today was honored with the Applied Systems Client Network's (ASCnet) 2007 Chapter of the Year Award.

The award was presented by ASCnet Chair Vicky Tuten, CPA, to TEAMONe Chair Andy Phillips, Secretary Steve Cross and Treasurer Tony Watmore at the 22nd annual Technology, Education & Networking Conference, or TENCon, at the Coronado Springs Resort in Orlando.

The Chapter of the Year Award honors an ASCnet local chapter that exhibits exemplary leadership and delivers to its members outstanding educational programs, excellent networking opportunities as well as timely tools, products and services, and exceptional opportunities that help boost their firm's profitability and grow the value of their firms.

Tuten praised TEAMONe for successfully encouraging its members to become active in its committees and for refining its educational programs to better match the needs of its members. TEAMONe also reasserted its brand to current and prospective members through a more informative Web site and a new member welcome kit that provides detailed information about the chapter, its membership, its advocacy work and the other benefits of being a member.

"It is a special privilege to present the ASCnet Chapter of the Year Award to TEAMONe for its truly outstanding and successful initiative to encourage member participation in its committees," said Tuten while presenting the honor. "Through its membership's increased hands-on involvement TEAMONe has established a pathway for the creation and development of new education programs that will better serve the interests of its members. We congratulate the chapter and its members for a job well done."

"We are excited and gratified to be honored as the 2007 ASCnet Chapter of the Year," says TEAMONe President Miller. "We have dedicated this volunteer organization to doing everything in its power to help make our brokerage members competitive in the short-term and successful in the long-term. More member involvement already is making a difference for our members."
