Back in March, I participated in The Business of Promotional Products Distribution Telesummit. I was one of six panelists that led discussions related to marketing and sales for the promotional products industry.

Each of the six sessions were recorded and are now available from PPDGYM. You can purchase an individual session, or all of them as a group. PPDGYM.com gives you the option to instantly download your files or you can order the recordings on CD.
