Our Industry is Changing! 

Freeway Sign_Future

Nothing stays the same in life and in business. And it's exciting to see some of the things that are changing in the Promotional Marketing industry.

New technologies are making us more efficient so we can be more productive. This give us more time to actually enjoy life away from the office. In my article, Where is Our Industry Going, I share some thoughts about this.

To address personal development topics that are often overlooked in today's crazy, fast paced world we have launched a NEW SuccessTrack that we are very excited about: Life Changing Conversation on Topics that Matter.

Our first session featured Rod Brown, CFO of from distributor MadeToOrder and PPAI Board Member. Rod is a VERY busy guy, yet he takes about 2 months off in the summer. In this session, Ron Baron and I talk with Rod about why he does this and share a bit on the importance of takes some time off. Click here for the recorded session.  (Hit the playback button.) 

IN THE NEAR FUTURE...TAKE SOME TIME OFF!    
For less than $80.00 a day, INCLUDING port taxes, you will enjoy motivating content while on an incredible cruise to the Bahamas, September 17th. Click here for more information!

Where is This Industry Going? 

Man in Weird Place
I am writing this while enjoying cool breezes and an awesome view of the ocean in beautiful Long Beach, CA. Most of the country, as well as my home an hour up the road are HOT, so this 80-degree weather on the California coast is awesome.

This week I have been working with Jeff Anderton from Video Farm TV, promoting and reporting the SAAC Show (Specialty Advertising Association of California). As I have done with other events, like Promotions East (now to become Expo East), we share some of the highlights of this event to our audience around the country.

What's different here is the revolutionary trade show app Video Farm created for the SAAC Show. Technology takes time to develop but this should become a standard productivity tool for trade shows in the future. I believe the launch of this app is a technology turning point in where trade shows are going.
