Preliminary Agenda
The AIN Member Services Team is hard at work finalizing presenters and topics, and a preliminary look at the Sales Conference Agenda is beginning to take shape. Follow this link for a preview of what you can expect from the 2015 AIN Sales Conference.
“Speed Dating” Continues!
At last year’s AIN Conference, the AIN Member Services Team scheduled over 235 private meetings between Core Carrier Sponsors and attending AIN Member Firms. Due to popular demand, AIN will continue this format in 2015, and will reach out to AIN Member Firms in January to begin the scheduling process. AIN Member Firms are encouraged to bring their difficult cases to private meetings and prepare agendas in advance as necessary.
Announcing the 2015 AIN Sales Conference Idea Lab
Over the last 18 months AIN Members who have attended any of the Core Carrier Idea Lab style training events. Sales Conference Attendees will listen in as a hand-picked selection of the best sales ideas from these sessions are presented in an effort to find “The Best Sales Idea of 2014″. Just to keep things interesting, we have also saved one spot for an “At Large” submission. If you think your idea could bring home the $5,000 in prize money for the winner, follow this link to submit your idea today! Deadline for submission is Friday, January 30th!
If you attended a training and submitted a sales idea, you are already in the running. The AIN Member Services Team will reach out to the finalists in late January.
Monday Night is “Dine-Around” Night
Remember, Monday night is “Dine-Around” night, and once your place is secured at The Island, you will be receiving an invitation from one of the AIN Core Carriers for that evening. AIN expects to occupy the vast majority of available rooms at the hotel with the largest turn out yet for our 20th Anniversary Sales Conference.
