Newsagent supplier round table to work on helping newsagents

I invite newsagent suppliers to register to participate in one of two supplier round table discussions I am hosting in three weeks.

I am keen for suppliers to participate in a discussion about the state of the newsagency channel and how they can help newsagents weather rough waters.

The very latest newsagency sales trends by product category will be shared. Data points will include basket depth, basket mix, traffic counts, anticipated store closure rates, growth categories, factors newsagents are considering when contemplating closure.

I decided to host the forum because of the spate of closures already this year and because of supplier representatives talking in negative terms about the channel. There are ways newsagents can grow. Suppliers can nurture optimism and guide newsagents through the difficult times.

If you are concerned about the future of the newsagency channel, come along and participate. It’s free.

Access to the round table is free – I am funding it through my newsagency software company Tower Systems. Any supplier rep is welcome to attend.

Let’s make the newsagency channel stronger together!

    G’day,

    If the 2 south of the border are successful, any chance of a forum in Qld?

    Cheers.

    Certainly Aaron. I’m thinking about adding Brisbane anyway. I should have it worked out by the end of this week.

    Brisbane added following several phone calls to me this morning asking for it: http://www.towersystems.com.au/free-training/book-free-training?id=1111
