10TH ANNUAL DEALER CONFERENCE IN 2010
The 10th Annual Dealer Conference, held the third week of each March, was the best attended of all our Dealer Conferences. For the first time, we invited a number of additional vendors from the industry to attend to add synergy to the event. Tony Evans was our key-note speaker and challenged us to recognize that God has promised us a "hope and a future."
Training sessions for our customers with laser centers ran continuously for two days. The room was packed for each of the presentations. In addition, we had a large section of the factory curtained off to accommodate presentations on decorating and merchandising, panel discussions, and an address by Tony Evans.
Testimonials
Lorraine Valk is a second generation owner of Parable Christian Store in St. Joseph, MI. Her parents Jake and Ruth Reedyk are staunch Dutch immigrants. I first met the Reedyks 34 years ago when we first set them up as dealers. Jake and
Ruth retired 4 years ago. Lorraine and her CPA husband Jim took over the store and continue to "grow the business" in St. Joseph.
Lorraine was gracious enough to send us the following note which she agreed to allow us to publish in this catalog.
"I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you so much for the conference, the support and love. The conference was truly outstanding. What a wonderful opportunity to connect and share with other store owners in a more intimate setting. Having your staff ready to answer questions, equipped with great tools and leading seminars was what I really needed to take the laser to the next level. I wish your location was closer- and I'd send the whole staff over to be trained! :) Dr. Tony Evans was just wonderful, as was the food, the fellowship and teamwork demonstrated on your site. Tony had said that God wants to bless us, and through us bless others (let the blessings pass through). Thanks again- it was truly a blessing to share the time with you! May God Bless Your Day!"

The Dutchman's Daughter
Joe and Marcia Hackman from Hackman's Bible Bookstore in Allentown, PA have been P. Graham Dunn customers for years. This gracious note was sent to us in March in
which they expressed their observations of P. Graham Dunn.
"We want to say a heartfelt "Thanks" for the wonderful time we had the last three days. The professionalism and enthusiasm that you and your staff brought to us was exemplary.
You certainly helped us a lot with the close-outs, laser university and the over-all tone of the week.
I
also was very impressed how you included Curtis Riskey, Executive Director of CBA, and helped with CBA as well.
I have to tell you that the highlight for me was the tour of the plant. The precision, standards and products were truly amazing. The most amazing thing for me was your people. The tour guide and all the other presenters were more than enthused about what they were doing. It did me proud to see a manufacturing company still giving U.S. jobs. I was very impressed with the one lady who has been there 34 years, who was in remission from acute leukemia. She surely was an inspiration to your organization. As much as we enjoyed the fantastic presentation of your company, your people stole the show."
Sincerely, Marcia & Rich
The Best "Little" Store in Allentown
The following is a testimonial that was mailed to us immediately after our 10th Annual Dealer Conference.
"My wife, Sue, and I attended our first P. Graham Dunn Dealer
Conference this past week and
want to thank you not only for your hospitality, but for your heart for the Lord, passions for our industry, and a genuine desire to see Christian Retail succeed. Over the years P. Graham Dunn has become our number one wall décor vendor. Your new products introduced this year, I believe, are a great addition to your lines and the extra discounts which you've extended has been a tremendous "shot in the arm" for us as we endeavor to press on through these tough economic days. Thank you so much!
We currently do not have the laser equipment but we seriously considered it and I'm hoping that next month I will be taking our Executive Director down to Allentown to see Joe Hackman. In all of my conversations with other stores I have not had one really negative conversation about the laser program and therefore I am very hopeful that we will be able to get on board soon! Again thank you so very much!"
Blessings, Paul and Sue Kuntz
