Greetings Fellow Facilitators!

I hope this memo finds you well. As many of you may recall, about 18-months ago I put together the concept for an online database of experiential activities for facilitators and trainers at FActivities.com.

Our goal is to launch this database this June with at least 200 exercises with plans to grow to 1,000. This will be a membership site that will be priced initially at around $69/year for access. This will also be part of the upcoming FacilitatorU.com membership package. I'm currently soliciting exercises from the training and facilitation community and having some difficulty getting contributions. So this is where I need your help.


Benefits to you and Special Offer

I'm inviting you to submit exercises for this database, to acquire them from colleagues, and/or to pass this invitation on to others. Here are some benefits to you for making these submissions and I'm offering an additional incentive to expedite this effort at the bottom of this offer.

- You retain copyright to your material. You simply grant a non-exclusive license to Factivities.com and its members.

- Every exercise you submit will contain your bio, including any contact info and website links you desire. Your exercise will be exposed to thousands of facilitators, trainers, and their clients helping to effortlessly spread the word about you and your work.

- The Factivities.com site will be advertised regularly in our Master Facilitator Journal going to over 7,000 readers. When this site is officially launched, we will vigorously market it through all of our FacilitatorU.com sites and other channels.

- Free database access if you submit 3 or more exercises...

  • Submit 3 exercise or more and get full database access for 6 months from date of official launch.
  • Submit 5 exercises or more and get full database access for one year from date of official launch.
  • Submit 10 or more exercises and get free lifetime membership to database.

- These exercises must be your original material, or material for which you have the permission of the author to submit.

We're serious about ramping this site up quickly. So here's a special offer...
