Instant Imprints Franchise Holds Second Annual Convention

LAS VEGAS (Thursday, May 04, 2006) - Instant Imprints held its second annual convention this past March 2006 in Las Vegas at the Venetian Convention Center. Held over four days, the convention was attended by 80 franchisees. This year, the convention was expanded to include a full day of education, technology and vendor presentations as well as a day dedicated to sales and marketing.

Notable awards went to Todd & Robin Muhlheim of Lake Oswego, OR for sales achievement, while Todd & Amy Pearn of Aurora, CO received the Store of the Year award and Jeff Willis of Concord, CA earned the Spirit Award for excellence in participation, promotion and mentoring others. Franchisees were treated to a key note address from Cliff Quicksell, MAS, a 24 year industry veteran of the promotional products and imprinted sportswear industries, who shared his knowledge and wisdom on how to be the very best in the business. Instant Imprints also announced several new technological innovations and initiatives as well as many marketing and operational roll-outs for the franchise system.

Instant Imprints is the first franchise concept to embrace every facet of the imprinted promotions market that offers screen printing, embroidery, signs and banners, heat transfers, and promotional products -- all under one roof. Unlike most promotional product stores, Instant Imprints is the first one-stop logo shop targeting both the retail and business-to-business customer base.

"It has been a stellar year for Instant Imprints," said Leo Kats, president and co-founder of Instant Imprints. "We have doubled our size every year since our inception and are now expanding internationally as well. We thank our franchisees for their continued support and loyalty. It is their dedication to operational excellence that contributes to Instant Imprints' continued success in communities nationwide."

San Diego, CA based Instant Imprints was founded in 1992 by Leo and Lev Kats who led the family imprinting business into a new direction and began franchising in 2002. Today, the company has more than 70 stores open across 22 states, with an additional 50 planned for 2006.
