    Join us in the wonderful city of Nashville, known as The Music City and for its' BBQ and Hot Chicken!  Noelle Nashville, a unique boutique hotel, located in Downtown Nashville will be the venue for this conference.

    What to expect... 

    Jay Johnson of Texas A&M will kick off the meeting Monday morning discussing how inventory management is extremely important from a financial commitment and cost perspective but also from a customer service perspective.  It doesn’t have to be overly complicated though.  In this session, Jay will have us explore a basic inventory management process and the key components of optimal inventory management decisions.

    Ed Faust from Ed Faust & Associates, will take us on a journey on Tuesday morning.  First by looking at the industries we serve and the changes and opportunities that are occurring in those markets.  Secondly, given the changes/opportunities, Ed will discuss what type of recruiting/talent search we should do so that we have the right bodies in the seats.  Finally, Ed will share best practices from his extensive background on how to effectively manage our sales teams once we have everything in place…..or partially in place. 

    This Educational Conference will be one to remember.  Two outstanding speakers that will not only educate our members but also challenge them.  Not to mention that our afternoons will be spent hearing from leading manufacturers in the plumbing industry - Barry Walter Sr Co, Sloan Valve, Acorn/Murdock, Delany, Zurn Elkay, Pioneer Industries, Dahl Valve and T&S Brass.
