Hello Bill, 

I would just like to take a moment to let you know how much I have appreciated your assistance in our gaining success in international trade for our products. When you spoke at our conference several years ago, we did have quite a nice variety of international distributors, however, the additions have grown to include Australia, Indonesia, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, and Hong Kong, to name a few. It is with the help of agencies such as yours the United States small business owners can once again look to becoming influential in world trade and global industry leaders.  

When we first began working with you we were shipping our products in small package quantities to various private and commercial outside the United States, with the main portion of sales being with the 48 contiguous states. There is a much different story to tell these days, with those small packages turning into 20’ and 40’ containers headed to such exotic sites as Ghana, Indonesia, Singapore, and Malaysia. 

To be able to write such a letter in a time of worldwide financial strife is in itself remarkable. We have a great and unique product, that was developed by Americans in America, we are a family owned and run small business with its origin in a small town in rural America. And we rely on the assistance of our government to provide us with the expertise such as yours in areas that we could not possibly attain or afford in such a short time on our own. To see other countries battling their governments, overthrowing them with every means possible, to a point of laying down their lives to free themselves of their tyrants, I can only be amazed that our government, although not always right, does always try to support us, provide us with protection, and the means to be as successful as possible. 

Once again Thank You for your assistance and Thanks to the US Government for enabling you to be there for us. 

Best regards,
