Vegas Trade Show Videos & Review: Telarus'
Agent Conference Opening
We probably have 8
solid hours of trade show video to share and we've processed about half of
it. We'll be sharing it with you over the next several weeks.
To start we're presenting the opening of Telarus' Annual
Agent Conference where Telarus President Adam Edwards addressed upwards of
100 of Telarus' best "closers". The Telarus conference started
Saturday in the Gold Coast. We have 10 separate videos from this Telarus
event that we'll publish next week. For more information about Telarus
visit www.Telarus.com or call
801-523-2100.
Shout Out to
MegaPath, Our
newsletter video shirt sponsor
If you watch Dan's week-in-review video above, at the end you'll see Dan's wearing a MegaPath shirt (a really nice one, too!). So we thought it would be fun to
have different vendors sponsor our weekly newsletter & video blog by
wearing on of their shirts. If you want to sponsor a future weekly
newsletter & video blog to get a "shout out", Dan wears an XL.
