Closing is certainly an important sales activity, as the time, effort, and resources invested in managing sales cycles are wasted if orders are not secured. However, the real secret to closing sales is doing a great job at the FRONT end of the sales cycle.

Promotional products are not just trinkets and trash

We’ve all seen trade show displays that look like retail counters filled with items that have nothing to do with the exhibiting company. We’ve also left shows with bags full of free stuff; pens, memory sticks, hand sanitizers, luggage tags and so on… with no recollection of the exhibitor who gave it to us. With experiences like these some exhibitors have come to the conclusion that giveaways are a waste of money while others, when seeing their neighbors giving stuff away, consider them a necessary evil. With a finite trade show budget, you must ensure that every investment you make in your trade show program results in a positive return. To ensure that your promotional products impact your show’s bottom line, you must select the right giveaways and develop the right strategy for distributing them.

Barry Siskind, author of the best-seller Powerful Exhibit Marketing and international speaker and Fortune 500 consultant, helps business owners and corporations ensure their promotional products add value to their exhibit. He teaches the tools you need to ensure that your promotional products impact your show’s bottom line.

During this webinar you will learn:
• The inherent value in promotional products
• The key factors to consider when choosing the right give away
• When to use your giveaways and other collateral materials to approach and disengage from a booth visitor
• Give your promotional products and other collateral materials memorability

The effects are significant: Each year employers lose the equivalent of 6% of their payroll to unscheduled absences.* Add to that the challenges caused by school closings and holidays, caregiver vacations or illness, and more.

Reliable back-up care steps in when care arrangements for children, adult or elder relatives fall through. That gets employees to work. The result? Minimized absences, maximized engagement and productivity, and an antidote to rising healthcare costs compounded by dependent-care stresses and the strain of covering for absent colleagues.

Join moderator and Bright Horizons CEO Dave Lissy to hear these leading employers detail how their organizations benefit from back-up care:

Register today. One webinar participant will receive a complimentary Horizons Workforce Consulting study to determine your own organization’s estimated demand for dependent care supports.

Online learning is one of the fastest growing market segments today. Companies are turning in droves to web-based training as a cost-effective method for developing their employees. However, if you have delivered one of these sessions using the same presentation and delivery style as your live ones, you probably didn’t get the results you desired. Conducting live, web-based training events requires a different presentation, specialized vocal style, and key tools to engage a virtual audience. In essence, you need to create a learning environment that is designed for a distance learning experience.

Sheri Jeavons, innovator of “Webinars that Wow®” and founder of Power Presentations, Inc. helps presenters take their courses online. She teaches you the secrets to engaging your learners and the nuances that you must account for when presenting virtually. You will be armed with the knowledge you need to use webinars to deliver your teachings.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to:
• Modify your existing training courses into dynamic online events geared toward remote learners
• Select compelling content from your repertoire that is appropriate and effective in an online training event
• Transform your speaking style by incorporating the 6 do’s and 6 don’ts to engage your audience
• Incorporate interactive tools into your webinar that create a learning environment
• Keep your audience on track by setting guidelines for focused participation

As an added bonus, the first 50 registrants receive Sheri’s “Webinars that Wow PIE Format” worksheet.

In this session “What Would You Do Without the Right Participants?” taking place Wednesday, January 18 at 3 p.m. ET, you will learn how to engage computer or technology illiterate individuals, ideal sample size, participant technology and Internet access requirements, and privacy issues.

Learn how to maximize the success of your tradeshow leads
Presented By Barry Siskind – Available On Demand

Over 43% of trade show leads fail because sales follow-up is too late!

Companies invest an exorbitant amount of money, time, and resources in trade shows. Business leaders hold sales and marketing departments accountable and responsible for generating a return on the investment made in trade shows.

In this webinar, Barry Siskind, author of the best-seller Powerful Exhibit Marketing, international speaker and Fortune 500 consultant, teaches sales and marketing professionals how to win the competitive foot-race of trade show lead conversion. Webinar participants learn how to take the corporate investment in trade shows and translate it into huge revenue results. Barry helps participants recognize the role that both sales and marketing play in driving trade show revenue.

Participants come away from Barry’s webinar with:
• Strategies to convert trade show leads into mega-sales.
• Tactics to gather critical lead data at the trade show.
• Ideas to defeat the competition through an aggressive lead follow-up campaign.
• Appreciation of the “lead-value” timeline. A trade show lead has a very narrow shelf-life.
