Roundtable Breakfasts – Sales Reps - Now and Future : We often talk about challenges in recruiting welders\, assemblers\, etc. Are you finding similar challenges recruiting for sales positions in our industry? Can you share any experiences with your current recruiting methods\, successful or not? Do you have experience with any formal sales training programs\, whether internal or external\, which you've found to be effective and can share with us? How do you determine which personnel from your company will staff your trade show booth? Is your free company logo shirt strong enough incentive for booth staff? What role do your Reps play in staffing your trade show booth? Do you want them there at all or do you ask them to stop by / say hi then beat it? If yes\, are they assigned times to be “in charge” of the booth? How and why are sales in the PEMA environment (meaning more capital equipment based) different than other environments. How does this affect the type of sales individual that fits well?  Does the salesperson need to be an engineer\, for example? How do you see the future of the “Independent Sales Rep Firm”. Do you see them being around in ~10 to 20 years or will this need to be replaced by direct sales due to lack of interest (in becoming an independent rep)? What take-aways did you gain from Kelly's presentation yesterday?REGISTRATION FEES*Executive Full Meeting ($375): Thursday speaker session\, cocktail reception\, dinner and Friday breakfast
