Every year I try to attend at least one BTA event. This year I'll be attending my first ever BTA National Conference in New York City on September 19th through the 20th.

I'm pretty lucky that I think I have the best view of the NYC skyline in all of New Jersey, others might disagree, but I've got one heck of a view. One of the events that...

5 Reasons The Top 100 Summit Was Over The Top
Posted on September 29, 2015 by Print Audit By West McDonald, Vice President of Business Development, Print Audit & Owner, FocusMPS It’s hard to believe that the 2015 Top 100 Summit has come and gone.

Re: COVID19 "Remote Working" Day Sixty Eight of Sales
I feel like sharing our emails that work for obtaining appointments is something that should go to a private chat. Not knowing what competition abounds on this forum, it'd be like giving away our secrets to getting in on a deal. I've found a simple, quick intro followed up with a request has worked. Getting into specifics if you have them from your CRM has gotten traction, but it all really depends on the customer. One big thing, in particular these days, is the fact that I'm sure DM's or...

Re: COVID19 "Remote Working" Day Sixty Eight of Sales
@TML Thanx for the reply. It's interesting about how we check and deal with incoming emails. For me it's completely opposite because I will drop what I'm doing to address the email and then move on. I'm sure there others like me but probably more like you. I've been more successful with emails rather than phone calls, and that's probably because I have some long standing relationships with many accounts. However every now and then I will turn the tide with a phone call and get the...

Re: Mask, Vaccinate or Do As I Say!
@TML The RNC is fractured in NJ and has been that way for the last 20 - 30 years. We can win a Governorship, but we can't win where it counts for change and that's with the state senate and assembly. However this year we gained seats in both houses and knocked out the second most powerful dem in the state, It's still a tough road for red in NJ
