If you are referring to the expo in November 2004, I will be attending the show and seminars. Hope to learn a lot before opening/buying my first salon...and meet some members from this board.

What a fabulous bunch!

Man, I wish I were doing as gopd as some of you folks. Maybe living closer to the seminar site is cheaper, but I know I can't afford to shuttle of to all of these seminars and tradeshows. I envy you all!

"Grip, are you doing a seminar?"

Funny you should ask that. Several people have asked us to. After a speaking engagement where I was the Keynote Speaker to a tanning chain and Dan Humiston was a speaker there, he and I shared a two-hour plane ride together where we got to discuss many things. One of those things, at the request of many influencial people in the industry, was for us to give a seminar at the show.

I found out from Dan that he would love to have us speak except that the ITA is not in charge of seminars at the show but rather Smart Tan (0wned by a tanning magazine) is. This is strange in the fact that the ITA doesn't educate but a tanning magazine has filled this breach of duty for them.

I've not made the time to contact them and offer a seminar as, quite frankly, I've been busier than a one-armed paper hanger.

Thanks for the reminder and your support. I'll try to get involved next year.

Fan... I believe the expo this year is in Orlando, not Nashville. Wouldn't want to have you in the wrong state.

THEDORSEYTOUCH · 07-19-2004, 07:57 PM

And what are you exhibiting gottaknow? I don't want to miss the opportunity of meeting you in person. Or is the exhibit a secret?

Thanks lil_missfit. Since I am from Jacksonville (a 2 hour drive), it is very near this year.
