Are you eager to learn new insights at the 2019 ATA Trade Show, Jan. 10 to 12 in Louisville, Kentucky? If so, the ATA’s seminar series has you covered.

ATA staff members, led by Kurt Smith, ATA’s director of industry relations, selected several qualified candidates to present seminars on coaching, bow tuning, sales and marketing, and current industry trends. The presenters are ATA members and representatives, and folks from the ATA’s partner organizations.

By attending a seminar each day of the Show from 7:15 a.m. to 8:15 a.m., you’ll connect with peers and expand your knowledge.

“There is always something new to learn for any business owner or employee to help make their business more successful, efficient or profitable,” Smith said. “We know our members invest a lot of time and resources to get to the Show. So it only makes sense that they make the most of it by attending seminars and getting exposure to ideas and people they otherwise wouldn’t.”

Smith recommends choosing seminars based on their business needs.

“Attendees should honestly assess their business to identify areas that need improvements,” he said. “Then they should look for seminars that address those areas, and be ready to take notes as soon as the seminar starts.”

Smith said it’s great to learn more about things you enjoy or excel at, such as coaching or bow tuning, but it’s more important to work on skills that don’t come as naturally. If your store has several people attending the Show, split them up to cover different seminars, and then take notes and discuss the material later.
