The Mheda Journal

I can’t believe how fast time flies. It seems like it wasn’t very long ago that I was leaving Palm Desert, CA, after last year’s MHEDA Convention.

Now, it’s only three and a half weeks until the 55th installment of MHEDA’s Annual Convention and Exhibitors’ Showcase. It takes place May 1-5 in Marco Island, FL. MHEDA has been to Marco Island several times, most recently in 2005. That was my first visit, and I’m excited to be heading back. What a great locale!

Beyond that, this year’s Convention should prove to be a valuable one thanks to the strong speaker lineup and networking opportunities. With the industry taking a hit over the last few years, the MHEDA Convention is a great way to re-introduce yourself to suppliers, distributors and customers that you may not have heard from in a while. All the material handling industry’s heavy hitters will be there!

This year’s theme is The Rules Have Changed, a nod to the changing environment that we’ve endured this past several months. Speakers will present on topics ranging from marketing your business to profitability improvement, from to strategic planning to sales intelligence.

My colleagues and I will be there documenting the event. If you want your name and photo in The MHEDA Connection daily newsletter that’s going to be published there, seek us out! (I hope I didn’t scare everyone away!) I look forward to seeing you there!
