A Special Invitation

I'd Like to Refund Your Money

on Every Travel Product You Bought
From Us in the Past 12 Months

Then give you a $9056 head start

… AND send you on a trip that will help
you earn an income while you travel the world as a VIP!

But your timing is crucial …

AWAI Member,

I'd like to thank you for your loyalty to AWAI's Travel Division –- by giving you up to $1,000 back on everything you've bought from us in the past 12 months, including workshop fees.

And if you haven't purchased anything?

No sweat – you still qualify for the clincher:

In addition to any refund we might owe you, I'd like to give you a $9056 head start on your new travel career … including one trip that could help you earn extra income from your travels – AT NO EXTRA CHARGE!

Readers of our free e-letter are already profiting from the advice our experts hand out every week …

And there's nothing we like more than to hear from them about the successes they're enjoying … the articles with their by-lines on them … the photos they've sold … the reduced-rate and even complimentary travel they've been offered …

I mean, Susan W. spent a recent week at a luxury resort in Colorado, spa treatments and meals on-the-house and the overnight stays just $99 (compared to the regular rate, which is as much as $510 a night).

And then there's Heidi C., who not long ago took an 8-day, all-expenses-paid, 5-star trip to Malaysia to visit in Kuala Lumpur and Penang, courtesy of Tourism Malaysia. She went on behalf of a magazine where the editor likes her work and keeps hiring her to write stories.

These guys – and the many other successful readers like them – are turning their funded travels into profits … selling articles and photos … and enjoying a "joyfully jobless" life, full of freedom, paid-for travel, and … well, fun!

They are fast becoming experts … and, in fact, that's why I'm writing to you today …

I'm offering you the chance to get your money back from reading and hearing what our experts say – and become one yourself …

… the chance to find out everything our experts know about getting paid to travel … so before the end of the year you can count yourself among the most successful folks in our fold, and find yourself traveling the planet and earning a living at the same time.

If you're ready to pursue that dream life where "work" might mean sailing through the Virgin Islands or dining on fresh pate in a B&B in rural France or exploring Antsirabe, Madagascar by rickshaw …

Then I can help you make this year, the year you move closer to realizing your dream of a lifestyle full of travel that pays for itself …

But I'll get into all of that in a minute. First, let me tell you what this invitation is all about …

How to Achieve Your Dream of Getting Paid to Travel this Year …
and Save a Lot of Money in the Process

I'd like to open the door for you to what is really our VIP Circle. It's a way for you to ensure you know every fundamental, every secret, every skill, every money-making technique there is for funding your travels … and save money in the process …

Save a lot of money, as it happens – as a member of our Loyalty Club.

Now, what exactly does that mean?

As a Loyalty Club Member, you become one of an exclusive group of men and women who benefit most directly from the products, services, and support we offer …

You're an insider, and that gives you discounted – or free – access to ALL our get-paid-to-travel programs on travel writing, photography, import-export, and more … every one of our publications, teleconferences, e-letters, and even live workshops.

I'm talking in broad strokes here. But generally speaking, as a Loyalty Club Member, you get full access to every resource we've ever provided – for half-price. For life.

What's more, I'll reimburse you up to $1,000 for any of our get-paid-to-travel products you may have already bought in the past 12 months.

PLUS, I'll hand you a FREE ticket to any one of our "Ultimate Series" workshops and then give you half-price "Ultimate Workshops" forever after.

That includes our annual travel writing workshop, plus our new line-up of workshops like our Ultimate Stock Photography in Santa Fe this coming fall as well as our annual Money-Making Photography Workshop.

Here are the specifics …

As a Loyalty Club Member,
You're Entitled to Our Full Resource Library for Half-Price

Now, that library of products – all designed to help you travel more, better, and for less money (and to show you exactly how easy it can be to earn an income while you're at it) – is worth $2,446.77.

But as a Loyalty Club Member, it's all yours – any product you'd like – at half price. Request it all – and you'd save a full $1,223.38.

And That's Just What's in Our Library Now …

Among the products we'll be creating in the next 6 to 12 months are …

 … that's $1,297 worth of new products yours for just $648.50. And that's just a small sampling of the dozen or so new programs we have in the works right now for release in the next 12 months. By this time next year, we will have added more than $1,500 worth of new products to our library. As a Loyalty Club Member, you'll be entitled to all of them … at half-price.

And every year we'll continue to add to our collection of useful, time-saving, money-making, and travel-enhancing products. And you'll always save 50% on every one of them.

Plus, I'm really just getting started here.

You'll Have the Proven Skills, Techniques, and
Tricks-of-the-Trade Necessary to Help You Make the Leap from Novice to Pro … to become an Expert Yourself

When you join our Loyalty Club, you receive lots of additional benefits as well – all chosen to help you transform yourself from novice to pro quickly and easily so you can turn this year into the year when you really can begin to live your travel dreams.

For example …

Meet the Experts in Person, Master All the Secrets
They Use to Fund Their Travels … and Do It for FREE

Every few months we provide an opportunity for you to meet and hear from our successful, savvy, traveling experts in person, too … the gurus whose expertise has already helped transform so many readers' lives.

At our live workshops, you meet experts like Jennifer Stevens, who wrote our wildly popular travel writing program; Rich Wagner, who heads up our team of professional photographers; Gary and Merri Scott, million-dollar-a-year income earners who've created their fortune traveling the world; and many others …

They're all funding a lifestyle of travel with skills they're eager to share with you.

If you've already been to one of our workshops, then you know: Live, on-the-ground experience really makes a difference when it comes to launching a career that lets you live anywhere in the world, travel as much as you like (when you like), and make money while you're at it.

And while people can pay as much as $2,397 to attend one of our live Ultimate Workshop events, Loyalty Club Members come for FREE or HALF-PRICE …

That's right. Loyalty Club Members are entitled to …

Loyalty Club Members got a big discount – $1,400 off the package price – which included their flight to Hong Kong, their hotel fee, entrance into the parade, a fireworks show and, of course, photography instruction from professional photographer, Rich Wagner.

Expedition size was limited to just eight attendees and we sold out in just six days. As a Loyalty Club member you’ll be notified of each event first AND you’ll get a discounted seat. These expeditions are a great way to see the world and learn a new skill while you’re at it.

Travel Around the World in the Company of Professional Travel Writers and Photographers

Now, we've been putting on these Ultimate Workshops of ours – with rave reviews – for seven years. We always host them in great destinations around the world – like Chicago, New York, San Diego, Mexico, Greece, Paris and beyond …

Coming up in the next few months we have planned live programs in Denver and Santa Fe. Plus traveling photography and writing expeditions in Ecuador, Paris, and beyond. Not to mention, we’ll also add more one-day writing workshops too, just like the sell-out Breaking Into In-Flight Magazines Conference that we held in Houston last December. And the Food Writing one-day writing workshop in Denver.

And because our programs differ each time – the stories you gather and the photos you take in each place diverge splendidly from city to city and workshop to workshop – you have every reason to attend more than one.

In fact, as I mentioned coming up in July we're headed to Denver where, we'll run our ONLY Ultimate Travel Writer's Workshop of the year.

Join us for three power-packed days, and within a handful of weeks you could be getting paid to travel, seeing your name in print, and enjoying some unbelievable perks, too …

That's because this workshop isn't filled with theoretical fluff. We tell you how, in the real world, this industry works. And then we show you – step-by-step – exactly how to navigate your way through it.

It means you can avoid the pitfalls that trip up most new travel writers. Instead, you can steer yourself directly to the by-lines you need to guarantee your own success.

The idea is that you can come with no experience at all. And in three days, we'll show you exactly what you need to know to land no-cost trips and turn your travel know-how into a paycheck. In your spare time. No experience necessary.

If you've been to one of our travel writing workshops before, you'll be pleased with the advanced-level material and all-new sessions we're integrating into this program … .

That workshop is priced at $1,697. But when you take advantage of this offer to become a Loyalty Club Member right now … you can join us at our next ultimate workshop for FREE! Come for free and learn the skills you need to get paid to travel.

And say, in addition, you were to take advantage of one workshop a year for the next few years … could be photography in China, Ecuador or Australia, perhaps … or travel writing in Canada, France, or San Francisco, maybe …

Wherever you join us, every time you attend a workshop at half-price, you're saving a minimum of $848. Attend five half-price workshops, and you'd save $4,240 or more.

Yet each event is guaranteed to take you that much closer to living your dream. You'll be learning new techniques and secrets and honing the skills you need to travel the world on somebody else's dime … and get paid to do it, too.

Become a Loyalty Club Member Now – and You'll Also Get …

Become a Loyalty Club Member, and we'll throw in this special add-on benefit as well.

ITWPA membership comes with a twice-monthly newsletter designed to help you write better articles, shoot better photos, travel smarter, and earn more; a subscription to the Travel Post Monthly, the group's online travel magazine, which is a great place to get a by-line and get your work in front of editors looking to buy content; your own professional online photo gallery where you can keep your portfolio of pictures; a members-only online forum for asking questions and getting answers; and much more … (5-year membership: $1,245 - yours FREE when you become a loyalty member.)

A 5-year term of ITWPA membership benefits would normally cost you $1,245. But when you become a Loyalty Club Member now – we'll gift you a 5-year ITWPA membership absolutely FREE.

All told, when you add up the extensive library of resources yours at half-price (and I haven't even factored in most of what's to come), the workshops, the 5-year ITWPA membership, and everything else, the value of the benefits you gain when you become a Loyalty Club Member today adds up to $8,976.

You can reserve your place in the Loyalty Club for just $3,900 and enjoy all the guidance and services the Loyalty Club offers.

You'll get all the benefits of our home-study programs, teleconferences, books, special reports – any of our products you'd like – at half-price for life … PLUS attend a live workshop FREE.

When you take into account what a lifetime of funded travel would be worth to you … the value of Loyalty Club Membership becomes incalculable.

I mean consider that, through the many benefits of membership, you'll have at your disposal all the tools you could need to arrange complimentary travel whenever the fancy strikes.

If you took even two complimentary press trips a year … travel that could be worth thousands of dollars saved at luxury resorts, in fine restaurants, and in destinations around the world … then Loyalty Club Membership at $3,900 becomes a truly extraordinary value.

But the savings doesn't stop there …

Subtract From Your Membership Fee Anything
You've Paid in the Past 12 Months, Up to $1,000!

If you've purchased any of our get-paid-to-travel products (including workshops) in the past 12 months, you can deduct what you paid (up to $1,000) from the price of your membership.

In other words, if you bought the travel writer program earlier in the year for $279, subtract that from your membership. If you purchased the Turn Your Pictures into cash for $429, subtract $429. If you've joined us for a workshop in the past 12 months, subtract $1,000 from your membership.

What About Information Overload?

Now, you may be thinking to yourself, "OK, this really IS a good deal. But I couldn't possibly get through it all."

Don't worry. You don't have to if you don't want to. As a Loyalty Club Member, you have complete control over your member benefits.

You simply pick and choose the programs you'd like to receive – anything you want is yours at half-price. You decide what you'd like to get now … what can wait a few months or even a year or two … and what doesn't interest you at all.

You come to the workshops that best fit your schedule and your inclination to see this destination or that.

Where's the Catch?

There isn't one. If you're really ready to turn this year into the year when you embrace a life full of travel, adventure … and an income to pay for it … then all it takes is a small commitment to your own future … a commitment to your dream lifestyle.

Loyalty Club Membership can help you take that dream and that commitment … and turn it into reality …

Plain and simple: You join, and you're entitled to the resource we have to share at half-price … for life.

The combined value of the titles in our current library comes to $2,446.77 … but with your 50% off price, you save $1,223.38.

Take advantage of 1 free live workshop and as many more as you'd like (forever) at half-price, and you're looking at a value of at least $5,939.50.

Plus the 5-year membership in the International Travel Writers & Photographers Alliance is worth $1,245.

And, too, we're adding $1,297 worth of programs to our resource library in 2009 alone. As a Loyalty Club Member, you're entitled to all of them at half-price – savings of at least $648.50.

That's $9,056 worth of benefits … money-making, lifestyle-enhancing resources to which you have full access at half-price, from today forward.

We're committed to providing new and better resources every year – in 2009, in 2010, in 2011, and well beyond. And no matter what new programs we have on offer, you'll always be entitled to all of them at half-price.

I think you'll agree: If you're interested – and ready – to turn your dream of a lifetime full of funded adventure and travel (plus a comfortable income to go along with it) into reality … then you'd be hard-pressed to find a better-value way to do it.

This Really is Too Good a Deal to Pass Up

I'm going to be frank here: This really is a good deal – and, in the end, it may be too good a deal for us to continue offering.

After all, the benefits of Loyalty Club Membership have no time limit. You can access anything in our library or come to any Ultimate Workshop for half-price for life. Forever.

(But the thing is, we can't fill all our live workshops with free and half-price attendees; we'll have to balance them with folks paying full price. And that means we'll likely have to limit the number of Loyalty Club Members we accept.)

Point is: I encourage you to join now, while enrollment is open.

The benefits of Loyalty Club Membership are timeless – but the number of places is not.

Become a Loyalty Club member today and you'll gain not only the full benefits of membership, but we'll also throw in 5-year membership in the International Travel Writers & Photographers Alliance.

Plus, if you've bought any of our get-paid-to-travel products in the past 12 months you can deduct what you paid (up to $1,000) from the price of your Loyalty Club membership.

I encourage you to act now and secure for yourself (at an incredible discount) a future full of travel, adventure, and fun …

Sincerely,

Lori Allen
