Do you remember the battery commercial with the toy bunny running across the screen under the headline "Still Going?" Well sans the bunny and a slight change in wording, we can adopt the phrase "Still Growing" to describe what we are seeing within our membership ranks. I am happy to report that we are off to a great start in 2015!

The 2015 Annual Conference took place in Myrtle Beach, SC, May 17-19.  There were 53 Exhibitors in attendance and the conference received outstanding reviews from both the membership and the vendors who participated.

The conference had many highlights but two were really well received by all.  First,  the attendees were treated to a moving presentation by American hero (and SC native) Clebe McClary who provided sage advice on coping with change in both our professional and personal lives.  Learn more about Clebe here.

Second, was the Profitability Workshop put on by John Christophersen of The Taylor Business Group.  Members participated in a highly informative session imparting many recommendations on how to make their businesses more profitable.  Some of the topics covered were P&L analysis and measurables in many areas of the voice and data resellers' businesses.

The attendees also enjoyed many networking opportunities including the Sunday Welcome Reception hosted by Zultys as well as the Monday Night Awards Banquet hosted by Graybar.  

An Ideacom "tip-of-the-hat" to all of our sponsors!
