i dunno bob, but it would appear that having the PPP program would definitely help the bottom line of any distributor of R/C merchandise, the 2 folks who were on the committee included. they get the op to expose folks, who MAY not have ever seen their respective companies add before, to everything their employers have to offer. admittedly the 1000 or so, so far that have signed into the program, remember to discount the full members that opted to drop back a notch to the new level, are a small start, but executives are paid to take a long view in market development, so it may still be a great benefit to them at some point in the future. so, yeah, i see a conflict of interest sorta situation in having sales execs from the industry on our marketing committee.
