California Day 2 and 3

Yesterday...
Some meetings at NAMM.
They apparently love when members come to visit. I'm fresh meat I guess. Everyone wanted to talk to me. It seems like an amazing place to work. I got to talk to some market development folks about some new marketing ideas for NAMM, Progressive Music and other similar retaliers.
Going to be presenting at the NAMM Trade Show in January.

Last night...
Dinner with the committee. The ideas started flowing. We all knew our meetings to follow would prove to be interesting.

Today...
A long day of meetings. Some great information sharing and a good start to some ideas on how NAMM can better help NAMM independant retaliers make the most of their businesses. I've met some great and intersting people. In about 30 minutes we're off to dinner to close out our time here. Tomorrow, it's on a plane and back to reality in Pittsburgh.

Another plug here. Saturday is Pittsburgh's first ever USSBA marching band competition at Baldwin HS. Come out to see the 7 bands at the show. It should be a great night!!
