Coach's Corner
by Fred Albrecht
It seems the year just continues to fly by and before we know it 2014 will be underway along with the early year show season for our industry. Our plans for the 2014 show season will include both ASI Orlando as well as PPAI In Las Vegas. We will have representatives from the office attend both shows and will host a dinner at each. We will not have our annual sales meeting or awards dinner in conjunction with either show. So you can attend either show or both and you will get the chance to see spend time with us and network with some of the best suppliers in the industry.
We plan to host our own sales meeting later in the spring, late April or early May. We are in the early planning stages and reviewing our options with respect to the location and dates available. As soon as we can finalize those details, we will send out a "save the date" notice with the location details. Our meeting in May of 2013 was extremely well received by our suppliers as well as the reps who have expressed their opinions. We would love to hear from more of you, simply send a quick email to Fred@albrechtco.com, feel free to tell us what you liked and what you did not like with respect to the location, meeting format and education sessions. Something you would like to see for 2014, please feel free to tell us as well.
