Stampede is bringing its Spring 2016 Big Book of AV Tour & Conference Series to Dallas, TX on May 12 and New York City, NY on May 19. Registration for both events is now open on the Big Book of AV Tour & Conference Series website.
According to Stampede president & COO Kevin Kelly, the 2016 Big Book of AV Tour & Conference Series has been successful thus far with stops in Salt Lake City, Montreal, Indianapolis, and Orlando. “This tour provides dealers with information on how to build maximum sales from established product categories, as well as how to profit from entirely new product categories.
