Our website,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="http://rocketcitylaunch.org/" style="color: rgb(149, 79, 114); text-decoration: underline;">rocketcitylaunch.org</a>, is up and running and we are actively seeking sponsors for the big event. This weekend of business planning and prototyping promises to be a lot of fun and a great opportunity to develop businesses for all involved.<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-indent: 0.5in;">We from the RCL team could use your help though. We need to spread the word for RCL far and wide and as quickly as possible. Fortunately we have this great network in HOTC where we help each other succeed. So let me ask you to do the following two things.<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.75in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span>1.<span style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></span>Follow us on facebook and twitter<br><a href="https://www.facebook.com/RocketCityLaunch" style="color: rgb(149, 79, 114); text-decoration: underline;">https://www.facebook.com/RocketCityLaunch</a><br><a href="https://twitter.com/rocketctylaunch" style="color: rgb(149, 79, 114); text-decoration: underline;">https://twitter.com/rocketctylaunch</a><o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.75in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span>2.<span style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman';"> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span></span>Send out this e-mail to anyone in your contact list that you believe needs to get their brand out in front of a group of investors, students, prototyping, programming or the startup entrepreneurship community. I’ve attached the sponsorship brochure as well. Anyone who sponsors before the end of the month is going to have their logo seen all over the city as we advertise for competitors next month.<o:p></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><o:p> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">On behalf of the RCL team thanks in advance for your help.
