The 2019 DPHA Professional Development Training Program - An Offer You Really Can't Refuse!

The Program and Showcase Committee, under the leadership of Richard Campbell (Belmont Hardware) and Kim Killgore (The Rain Company), once again will provide our members with an offer that is almost too good to be true. You can bring multiple members of your sales team who are first-time attendees to the 2019 DPHA Annual Conference for only $245 per person and have them participate in a custom sales training session developed specifically for showroom professionals by Teresa Allen, a recognized customer service leader and author. And for those who participated in the Professional Development Training Program (formerly known as the Sales Track Training Program) at either of the last two years' conferences, they may once again participate in the program at a reduced rate of $395. The Professional Development Training Program is a combination of both classroom learning and a round-table workshop where your team can learn successful sales and showroom practices from peers across North America.

The details:

• Attendance is limited to individuals who have never attended, or only attended once or twice, the DPHA conference previously, and offers a more "sales intensive" focus.
• Cost to attend is $245 per person for first-time attendees, and $395 per second- or third-time attendees (spots are filling quickly - there are a limited amount of seats remaining)
• The special $245 and $395 rate for a participant in the sales training program is only available to those who have someone else from their company attending the conference on a full conference fee.

The special $245 and $395 rate covers admittance to the conference for the following events:

• Friday, November 8, 5 to 7:30 p.m - Cocktail Reception in the Product Showcase
• Saturday, November 9
• 8 to 9 a.m. - Breakfast in Exhibit Hall
• 8 to 11:45 a.m. - Product Showcase
• 12 to 1:30 p.m. - Awards Luncheon
• 1:45 to 4:45 p.m. - Teresa Allen Breakout Session
• 6 to 10:00 p.m. - Closing Banquet and Casino Night

The DPHA Product Showcase features new products, bestsellers and the latest technologies that will help keep your showroom fresh and on the cutting edge. The DPHA Annual Conference is the largest gathering of decorative plumbing and hardware showroom owners, manufacturers and representatives who understand that attending provides endless opportunities to improve their bottom lines.

The Annual Conference and Product Showcase is a great opportunity to not only get your staff more involved with the association and our networking, but to have them exposed to roughly seventy members exhibiting at the Product Showcase and their new cutting-edge product offerings. Here is the chance for your sales personnel to build even better relationships at the conference with those manufacturers usually seen only when they visit your showroom, which can only be better for your business while at the same time increasing their personal feeling of involvement with your business. 

How can you take advantage of new opportunities if you never leave the comfort of your office? The DPHA Conference not only helps you build relationships and expand your knowledge, but your participation also reflects that you care about the industry.
