Why Sell Your Gold To Premier Jewelers? PREMIERBUYSGOLD.COM

THREE GREAT REASONS

REASON ONE Gold prices are at an all-time high. REASON TWO Premier pays more for your gold because we buy more gold than anyone in Southwest Michigan. Ä?Â?Ăœ>ĂžĂƒ }iĂŒ ĂŒÂ…i *Ă€i“ˆiĂ€ ÂŤĂ€ÂˆVi wĂ€ĂƒĂŒt

REASON THREE Premier pays even more if your gold is resalable. Just consider: your gold jewelry made years ago with lower cost gold could never be made with as much gold at today’s prices. Gold estate jewelry is a hot seller, and we’ll pay you more for yours!

Community Impact Measurement Study

Greetings: Beginning in May 2014 and running until June 2014, we will be knocking on doors in the neighborhood asking some of the residents to participate in a community impact measurement study. Our data collectors will be coming to many of the homes in your neighborhood and asking for a few minutes of your time to complete a survey. The information collected will provide us data we need to better describe general conditions in the neighborhood and make application for programs and resources that may be available from local, state and national sources. Most of you may already know that our mission is to keep Battle Creek neighborhoods healthy and safe; therefore, your participation is very important to us. If you are not already familiar with the work we do in in the community, please visit us at www.NIBC.org or stop by the office some time and get to know us better. When this project begins, our data collectors will be clearly identified with shirts and caps with our logo and identification cards exclusive to Neighborhoods, Inc. of Battle Creek. If there should be any question about any person that knocks on your door, please do not hesitate to contact us for verification of their identity at (269) 968-1113. We will have our phone lines open and staff standing by during the times our data collectors are in the field. Thanks so much for your assistance and best regards,

William G. Phillips, CCIM President and CEO
