FLASH COURSE: Marketing

Are you keeping up or do you shudder at all the changes and best practices and algorithms of marketing? This FLASH COURSE: MARKETING BUDGET workshop is going to relieve your stress! Not only will you learn what to spend, how to calculate and what not to do, you will also come away informed of the #1 and #2 marketing avenues for a sign manufacturing business!

  • What, if anything, should I spend on Advertising
  • What percent of Revenue goes to Marketing for my kind of business?
  • What falls into Marketing Budgets vs. Sales vs. Office Expense?
  • The new stuff: Free Marketing

Variances: The Path Forward

Know exactly how to approach a variance, your legal and code messaging, and how to get approved on the first visit!

The Generation Map

It is now a fact: There are generational differences in communication, work aspirations, and connection that must be addressed for both client-side activities, as well as in the hiring and retention of employees. We have a most enlightening, helpful and substantiated keynote on this very subject for Reunion 2023!

While we know that our own demographics within the Network are changing, we also need to learn about how to attract and engage talent effectively. At the same time, we need to meet the changing needs of our clients, which are often younger and communicate differently from what we have traditionally known. Experience this luncheon keynote presented by Gemini – you will be armed with invaluable tools!

AMPED Products

  • Flexi: Wish You Knew This Before…!
  • Portable Backlit Kiosk – Roll or Hang!
  • Modern Project Management App!

Employees Only

A classic training technique, realistic idea “test drives” are a best practice in our industry. It has worked across all industries and all levels for years. Here’s our twist: A POWOW for employees only! They get the real deal scoop on problem solving, work order practices that really work, time management, and how to get rid of hiccups! This roundtable could reduce turnover as staff gets real world answers to bring home.

We create the space where people want to share experiences or ask questions!

Better Trucks

Did you miss the Atlanta buzz!! The Van Ladder trucks are the new Must Have bucket trucks, they are incredible! Already, Members are purchasing their new shiny truck and you get a chance to see it up close with a personal Q&A session! Yes! Van Ladder is here and will park in a specially designated spot at the Tropicana Resort – just for Sign Bizzers!! But wait, there’s more! Van Ladder has NEW features to show – be in the know, see this AMPED panelist!
