First promotional products business-building virtual event happening Thursday, June 4<\/em><\/p>\n

TREVOSE, PA \u2013 May 19, 2020 \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>ASI Show\u00ae<\/sup> today announced the launch of fASI Virtual, a series of online business-building virtual events featuring three top suppliers presenting ideas and products to a group of select distributors and their invited end-buyer clients, taking place on Thursdays, June 4, June 18 and July 9.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cAs part of ASI\u2019s continuing effort to bring suppliers and distributors together in a virtual space, ASI Show is thrilled to introduce another online series that will help distributors prove their continuing relevancy to clients,\u201d said Rita Ugianskis-Fishman, senior vice president and general manager of ASI Show. \u201cAt the same time, the virtual events will give suppliers an exclusive opportunity to discuss their products and brainstorm marketing strategies and campaigns aimed at the next critical phase of the coronavirus crisis: back to business.\u201d<\/p>\n

The virtual events are part of the highly successful fASIlitate hosted-buyer family of shows. The format balances presentations with networking opportunities, allowing high-level decision-makers from distributor firms to foster new relationships with sought-after suppliers while creating additional business opportunities.<\/p>\n

Distributors will be able to invite up to two clients to each event, with confidentiality maintained. The first three virtual events take place on June 4, June 18 and July 9. Each 40- to 45-minute virtual event features up to 15 minutes for each of the three supplier presentations, including a Q&A. Each event will be recorded and emailed afterward to every distributor participant.<\/p>\n

\u201cInstead of your typical product demo, suppliers will also present marketing ideas, partner with distributors and become a vital part of storytelling while discussing what products are especially relevant now and through the economic recovery to come,\u201d said Ugianskis-Fishman.<\/p>\n

The fASI Virtual will be open to select, 3-, 4- and 5-star suppliers and distributors with pre-coronavirus promo sales volume of $500,000 or more.<\/p>\n

As part of its overall response to today\u2019s challenging business environment, ASI Show also launched \u201cASI Show at Home Presents: The Joe Show LIVE,\u201d a weekly online version of the popular, long-running promotional products sourcing program, \u201cThe Joe Show.\u201d The live webinar series is a virtual version of brick-and-mortar \u201cThe Joe Show Live,\u201d taking place every Tuesday from 10-10:30 a.m. ET.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
