Attracting on average 100+ distributors in each city, the Advantages Roadshow remains the ad specialty industry\u2019s most popular traveling show.<\/p>\n<p>Designed to bring together suppliers and distributors, the Advantages Roadshow provides a productive venue for distributors to stay on the cutting edge without traveling far from home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had a terrific year,\u201d said Nick DiNicola, general manager of the Advantages Roadshow. \u201cWe continually hear that the roadshow format offers suppliers the perfect opportunity to target key cities\u00a0while meeting face-to-face with a unique group of clients and prospects who traditionally do not attend other regional events. We are presently working on the 2013 Advantages Roadshow schedule and look forward to rolling out some exciting new features to next year\u2019s events.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The impressive list of suppliers who took part in the 2012 Advantages Roadshow tour included:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Aunt Beth\u2019s Cookie Keepers, asi\/37465<\/li>\n<li>Bag Makers, asi\/37940<\/li>\n<li>Bodek and Rhodes, asi\/40788<\/li>\n<li>CFS Promotions For Now!, asi\/42989<\/li>\n<li>Debco, asi\/48886<\/li>\n<li>Evans Mfg., asi\/52840<\/li>\n<li>Field Mfg., asi\/54100<\/li>\n<li>Hit Promotional Products, asi\/61125<\/li>\n<li>Hotline Products, asi\/61960<\/li>\n<li>Leed\u2019s, asi\/66887<\/li>\n<li>Marathon Mfg.\/Prestige, asi\/68707<\/li>\n<li>Numo, asi\/74710<\/li>\n<li>Prime, asi\/79530<\/li>\n<li>SanMar, asi\/84863<\/li>\n<li>Virginia T\u2019s, asi\/93917<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Participating suppliers raved about their experience. \u201cThe Advantages Roadshow really allows us to spend one-on-one time with a large number of clients and prospects \u2013 many more than we could see making traditional sales calls,\u201d said Alex Morin of Debco (<em>asi\/48886<\/em>). \u201cWe\u2019re really glad we came. It was time well spent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The productive roadshow schedule offers distributors a valuable business-building experience, without spending a lot of time away from the office. The event features ASI<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> education from 7:45 a.m.-9 a.m. and 1 p.m.-2 p.m., and exhibit hours from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.; attendees leave motivated and armed with new sales and marketing tools to immediately apply to their distributorships.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe got to stay closer to home and avoid hundreds of miles of travel \u2013 not to mention the expense \u2013 while still meeting with top suppliers who gave us innovative ideas to grow our business when we need it most,\u201d said distributor Cyrene Beavis of Cyrene &amp; Co.
