Hello Everyone!<\/p>\n
We have just returned from the first ever ASI Show in New York City and what a great time we had. On Tuesday I attended the ASI Education Day and sat in on a new session by Lisa Leitch \u201cAccelerate your sales with Innovative New Products\u201d. This was a great session which involved everyone who attended working together in groups to create a promotion around products given to us. If you\u2019re attending the ASI Show in Chicago I highly recommend this session.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday night we attended the Counselor Awards Dinner at Cipriani\u2019s on Wall Street, joining Fred and I were Steve Levschuk (Talbot Marketing) and Marc Roy (Accolade Reaction Group).\u00a0 It was a perfect evening good friends, a fabulous dinner and we were thrilled to have Marc there to accept the award on behalf of the Accolade Reaction Group, who are the first Canadian company to be on the Counselor TOP 40 list! Congratulations to everyone at Accolade Reaction Group on your outstanding achievement!<\/p>\n
Wednesday was the first day of the show and the floor was extremely busy all day and we had the opportunity to chat with a number of our fellow Canadians throughout the day. At the end of the day we hosted the special ASI Canada Reception for all Canadians attending the ASI Show. We also gave everyone a sneak peak of the newest version of ESPonline that will be launched in July. The new version will show Canadian pricing and catalogues from all the ASI Canada Suppliers, more news on this new version will be coming out shortly.<\/p>\n
While at the trade show I picked up information on what I think is one of the most exciting new products this year \u2013 the \u201cecobutton\u201d from Buzline. The USB \u201cecobutton\u201d is a PC energy saving device that plugs into any USB port, at the push of the button it automatically puts the computer into a special \u201cecomode\u201d that saves more energy than the normal sleep mode. All you need to do is push the button again to bring you back to exactly where you were and it displays the carbon (CO2) and money saved. I love this product!<\/p>\n
For more of my ASI New York favourite product ideas check back for my next post. Also for those of you in Ontario I hope to see you later this month at the first ever ASI Canada Road Tour. Information on the tour is posted on the home page of the site. And don\u2019t forget if you have news send me an email so that I can let everyone else know!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
