Holiday Wishes
Breakaway would like to wish all of our customers and employees a wonderful Holiday Season. Remember that a Breakaway courier is the perfect choice for delivering holiday gifts to friends and business associates. Be on the lookout for flying reindeer wearing Breakaway jerseys. Happy Holidays.

Snow Pool

The past few winters New York has received little or no snow. Can this streak continue? This question is a source of raging debate here at Breakaway headquarters. We would like to invite our customers into this controversy by entering our third annual Snow Pool. To enter, call Account Manager Ralph Santoni, by December 31st, with your unique guess, in inches, of the amount of snowfall Central Park will receive by April 1st, 2003.  If your guess is correct you will win a beautiful Breakaway T-shirt. Note: at press time a major snowstorm was forecast for the New York area.

Phone Operator of the Year

Customer service is our top priority. Our phone operators are trained extensively in how to best meet our customers’ needs. Our operators are so helpful that callers often request specific operators by name. We would like to recognize these shining stars. Please contact Account Manager Ralph Santoni with the name of your favorite phone operator.

NFO Underwear

We recently delivered two boxes of dirty clothes and other personal items to Paris for one of our customers, using our NFO (next-flight-out) service. Breakaway can deliver just about anything just about anywhere. 

Holiday Order Tracking

You can track your large holiday orders online at www.breakawaycourier.com. This puts Breakaway one step ahead of a certain bewhiskered and jocund competitor. Call Account Manager Ralph Santoni directly with any questions at 646-674-8353 or contact him by email at rsantoni@breakawaycourier.com.

Stump the band…

Last month we asked you to tell us what popular character’s balloon was the first to participate in a Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. This question generated many responses. The most popular wrong answer was that beloved Peanuts character: Snoopy. The correct answer was Felix the Cat.

T-shirt Question

In what city is the oldest public park in America located? The first person to call Ralph Santoni (with the correct answer) will win a coveted Breakaway T-shirt.
