Ever wish you had someone to bounce ideas off who knows your business as well as you do? How beneficial would it be to have someone who could be a source of new ideas? We all need inspiration, help or support somewhere along the way. This gathering of Retail Managers/Leaders, Retail Sales Leaders, Trainers (who support retail sales efforts) and Marketing Managers (with retail sales building responsibility) is unlike any other conference you might attend.

Here's why this is the most valuable conference you'll attend this year:

• You're meeting in an informal but structured setting with other managers from across the country who have encountered the same challenges you have, sharing ideas and asking questions of one another.
• Discuss subjects of importance to you while listening to qualified speakers; ask specific questions and get specific answers from people who have shared the same experience. Find out what your peers are doing — and why.
• Participate in the "Idea Exchange" where everyone gets 15-30 "new" ideas.

The "Idea Exchange" is an opportunity to interact with peers, ask and learn. Our focus group of Managers have submitted a partial list of topics for this year's forum.

• Referral Incentives & Sales Contests — What works, what doesn't?
• Sales Meetings — What's new and exciting in 2010? Tell us about the best sales meeting themes; activities; recognition; strategy sessions. Take away Sales Meeting Plans you can use immediately.
• If your fee income drops dramatically due to changes in the overdraft arena — where will you focus your sales efforts?
• It's product knowledge that gets your people to the "big game" so what's you approach to "spring training" and "team practice"?
• Building a Sales Culture in a "traditional" "compliance focused" organization. How do you keep everyone focused on sales?
