Client Magnetism CEU and ASID Annual Tradeshow

May 4, 2012
I recently attended a presentation by Angela Merola called, "Client Magnetism: Tools for Attracting Clients." This CEU was part of the ASID Distinguished Speaker Series, and I am so glad that I attended!

This could be creating a fun experience, making your client feel comfortable and less overwhelmed, etc. When we determine what is unique about us that we have to offer, we can determine how to market ourselves better to the type of client that we will have a successful working relationship with. This has definitely made an impact on me about how I will present my services in the future! Thanks, Angela! 

The Annual Trade Show was also fantastic! It was such a great atmosphere to meet our local reps and learn more about their products. Thanks, ASID!
