I A New Year
I Meet the Officers
I Special Unitron Offer I Winter 2011
As we start a new year, we are truly excited with last year’s growth in
members and look forward to the New Year. With increased membership,
DART hopes to offer additional cost savings with our supplier-partners of
Phonak, Resound, Siemens and Unitron.

As always, the simplicity of the DART model allows you to participate

and enjoy special pricing as a DART member but still retain your own
business account numbers as well as any special development funds or
other benefits. Our Manufacturer’s have pledged that you continue to be
eligible for any special programs and your account representative is never
negatively affected by DART purchasing. Equally as important, there are no
monthly minimum purchases to be affiliated with the buying group.

We hope to be able to assist our members in additional ways for 2011

including introducing a marketing funding program. We will have the
details of this program in the near future. Our vision is to share more among
our members so we can help each other grow. We have all been challenged
in the last several years but we predict more positive results for all our
members based on the past year. Perhaps you have a colleague who might
be interested in joining DART and we would be glad to contact them with
information.

Thank You for being a part of DART Alliance. We wish you a successful 2011.
