NAFED Annual Conference
Opportunity Knocks

St. Louis, MO
May 6-7, 2010
Event Registration Cutoff Date: 04/28/2010

We survived the Great Recession. Now the fun part begins. New opportunities are emerging: New products, new services, new profits.

But it won't be easy. The rules have changed. Doing business the "same old way" will no longer work in the fire equipment distributor industry.

That's where NAFED can help. The 2010 NAFED Conference and Expo will show you where opportunity is knocking for your business:
  • Differentiation: Keynote speaker Bill Durkin will share the latest research on how winning teams differentiate themselves from the competition. Gain practical ideas for creating profitable growth by bringing out the best in your company and your employees.
  • Dissemination: The NAFED Conference and Expo is where over 200 of the industry's best minds share ideas. Discover new strategies and forge new alliances that will take your company to the top in this new economy.
  • Domination: The NAFED Conference and Expo brings you the best new ideas first. Learn about the hottest new products and services from the industry's leading suppliers -- then use that early bird advantage to build industry-leading profits for your company.
Opportunity knocks. But only for those who attend the NAFED Conference and Expo. Register today.
