INDIANAPOLIS, IN (Dec 2009) —is.group, the
most progressive dealer group providing value-added programs and services to
independent dealers, today announced the dates and venue of the 2010 Annual
Membership Meeting. “Collaborate – Achieving More Together” will bring the
industry’s most progressive independent office supply and furniture dealerships
together with valued supplier partners, wholesalers, system providers, and
industry stakeholders in a forum designed to further expand the collaborative
and inclusive program endeavors of is.group in recent months.
Said is.group Chairman of the Board, Craig
Bartholomew, “During 2009, is.group continued our historic trend of trying to
find ways to bring industry organizations together, for the benefit of all
parties, but especially for the benefit of the independent office products
dealer. Other dealer groups, wholesalers, manufacturers, and service providers
can surely achieve more together when we work towards common goals.
Collaboration with our industry players on critical issues will continue to be
paramount in is.group’s future endeavors, and we are making that the focus of
our 2010 Annual Membership conference. We look forward to working with as many
different industry organizations as possible and bringing them all together in
Denver next June.”
With seminars focused on sales and marketing,
dealership branding, social networking, business development and emerging
technologies, is.group dealers will take away the most up to-date information
and tools to enable them to face head-on the challenges in their respective
marketplaces. Vendor-to-Dealer opportunities will be expanded this year, with
the continuation of the trade show exhibits and expanded One-on-One
Vendor/Member appointments.
The conference will take place June 2-4, 2010,
in Denver, Colorado, with the trade show at the Colorado Convention Center and
the seminars, shareholders’ meeting, and other events taking place at the
conference hotel, Hyatt Regency Denver. Registration information will be issued
in the near future, and interested parties can contact Cora Baker at is.group,
