I have arrived in the US this morning to attend the Hallmark Gold Crown Summit with a delegation of colleagues from newsXpress. We are the only Australians participating in this best practice event hosted by the most important and most recognised greeting card brand in the world.
Outside of the summit, a group of us will participate in a series of main street retail visits in Las Vegas and, over the weekend, in New York. These retail visits are designed to tap into best practice retail situations that resonate with newsagencies in Australia.
I’ll continue blogging as I’ll be in touch with my newsagencies in Australia through remote access and other means while away. Plus, as is always the case while on the road, there is day to day business to care for – being out of the country is no longer an excuse to get work done back home.
