Press Release Summary: DirectMarketingEvents.com will now be the central listing
place for all direct marketing related conferences, seminars, webinars, events and
other industry happenings, on a worldwide basis.

Press Release Body: The National Mail Order Association (NMOA) announced a new web
site for the direct marketing industry.

Approximately 16.5 million Americans have jobs relating to the direct marketing
industry. That's about 12.3% of the total U.S. employment. These people need to know
about direct marketing related events to keep up and advance their career.

"One central website to find all direct marketing related events is truly needed,"
says John Schulte, President of the NMOA. "Direct marketing as a whole is one of the
fastest growing methods of marketing there is on a global scale, and is now
forefront in the minds of most companies marketing departments, especially in the
e-commerce and general web marketing area. It is also one of the fastest changing,
with new technologies and other advancements being introduced almost everyday.

When you include all the other major direct marketing components like, direct mail,
catalogs, infomercials, television home shopping, along with the entire order
processing and delivery system, you can see that there is a lot to keep up with to
stay competitive and advance ones career or business.

Each year there are hundreds of events, seminars, and college courses around the USA
and other parts of the world to help people in the industry. In the past, the
problem has been twofold in that there was no single place to learn about them, or a
place for the sponsors to publicize them.

DirectMarketingEvents.com solves both problems. No longer will there be a need for
marketers to spend hours or days searching from one web site to another trying to
find out about all the possible direct marketing events and training going on in
their particular area, or even in another country. And at the same time, event
producers and educational organizations will have a way to easily communicate their
training and networking events."

Some of the main topics of events listed on DirectMarketingEvents.com are: General
Direct Marketing and Mail Order, Direct Mail, Catalog Marketing, Infomercials and
Television Shopping, Inbound and Outbound Telemarketing, Order Fulfillment, Mailing
Lists, Copywriting and Advertising Design, E-commerce, and Wholesale Buying Events.

The website will be open to all direct marketing and mail order related
associations, groups and clubs from around the world to post their events at no
charge. Colleges, private schools, and other training organizations that have a
direct marketing related program, will also be allowed to post their classes and
courses. As well as industry trade show producers, and publishers who sponsor direct
marketing events.
