FEATURED SPEAKERS

#1 Reason to attend this years Big “I” Convention: Info Express Quality NOT Quantity

“INFO EXPRESS: TWO MINUTES TO PROFIT” is a speed marketing concept that requires the par-ticipating attendees to visit every exhibitor during the designated times. All attendees will be given a booth number upon their entrance to the exhibit area. All attendees will go directly to that booth number. Agents’ cards must be stamped by EACH VENDOR in order to be eligible for the $1000 grand prize drawing. As always, guest and company attendees are not required to have their cards stamped. Each attendee will rotate from booth to booth every two minutes. At the sound of a whistle the attendees will move to the next booth to ensure that every agent has quality one on one time with the exhibitor and every exhibitor has quality one on one time with the agents! The morning of Tuesday, June 5th is reserved specifically for the InfoExpress and nothing else. The morning of Wednesday, June 6th, a roundtable continental breakfast will be available to meet one on one with any agents. Attendance is not mandatory.

PLEASE BE PROMPT! Doors to Exhibit Hall will close at 9:00 a.m.
