Andrews, president of <em>The ASI Show<\/em>.\u00a0 \u201cAs the economy continues to show signs of improvement, it is more important than ever for suppliers to make a personal connection with prospects and clients. The Advantages Roadshow targets 130,000 industry distributor salespeople from more than 22,000 ASI distributor companies.\u00a0Suppliers can easily meet hundreds of distributors each week, and that\u2019s more than they could meet through phone calls in the same amount of time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"style5 style4\">\u201cWith more than 5,000 distributors attending an Advantages Roadshow so far in 2010, the Roadshow continues to deliver more attendees in one week compared to any competing traveling show,\u201d said Nick DiNicola, general manager of the Advantages Roadshow. \u00a0\u201cWithin a few hours, distributors can acquire new sales tools, discuss client challenges and needs with other ad specialty professionals and find innovative items that give them a competitive edge.\u201c<\/p>\n<p class=\"style5 style4\">\u201cAdditionally, suppliers have the unique opportunity to connect with clients and prospects in an intimate, one-on-one environment,\u201d added Karen DiTomasso, vice president of sales. \u201cIn fact, we are excited to announce that there will not be a price increase in 2011, allowing suppliers to reserve space for the 2011 Advantages Roadshow at 2010 prices.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"style5 style4\">Many of the industry\u2019s top suppliers have chosen the Advantages Roadshow as their platform to introduce new products, and companies such as SanMar (<em>asi\/84863<\/em>), Prime Resources (<em>asi\/79530<\/em>), Bodek &amp; Rhodes (<em>asi\/40788<\/em>),\u00a0Marathon Mfg.\/Prestige (<em>asi\/68707<\/em>), Sweda (<em>asi\/90305<\/em>) and\u00a0Hit Promotional Products (<em>asi\/61125<\/em>) have made the Advantages Roadshow part of their annual exhibition plan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy experience with the Advantages Roadshow this year has been incredible,\u201d said Paul Bergman of Perfect Promotional Products (<em>asi\/77350<\/em>).\u00a0 \u201cI never thought I could touch base with so many customers in such a short amount of time. During a regular week of sales calls I will see maybe four or five customers each day, but with the Advantages Roadshows I am seeing around a hundred each day. For a company like mine, operating with a limited outside sales force, these types of shows are priceless. I hope ASI continues the program for many years to come, you can definitely count us in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"style5 style4\">The 2011 tour will also co-locate with the<em> Stitches<\/em> Roadshow in Atlanta, St. Louis and Denver, allowing attendees and exhibitors to experience two shows in one.\u00a0 Decorators will have opportunities to meet equipment, software, supply and service providers face-to-face, see new wearables vendors and network with other decorators, and distributors will have an opportunity to\u00a0learn the latest embroidery\u00a0trends.<\/p>\n<article><\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visiting 70+ cities across North America TREVOSE, PA\u00a0\u2013\u00a0May 25, 2010 \u2013 The ASI Show\u00a0today announced the 16-week schedule for the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":1482,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-press-releases"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.5 (Yoast SEO v27.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>ASI Advantages Roadshow Announces 2011 Schedule &#8226;
