Anyone going to the ABA Marketing Conference in Chicago? I see that they added a pre-conference Sales Workshop this year. I guess they finally discovered that bank marketers are not only interested in sales but need a deeper understanding of it in order to survive in the future. The content looks real good. If you haven't seen it already, I have attached a link to the conference program from the ABA website. From there you can click on the expanded descriptions of each session:

Ok - but the rule is that no one on BOL Threads is allowed to attend the session I am co-presenting! I'll be too nervous that you will throw olives at my big head!

Will it be possible to order recordings of the sessions similar to what they do at the compliance conference?

Yes

How about videos of the olives being thrown?

You may just pick up the audio of me saying "sh*t"!

LOL Dave. I think your safe, most of your BOL friends are compliance folks and wouldn't be caught dead at a marketing conference.

Right back at ya Pizza Girl - us Marketing folk wouldn't dream of attending a compliance conference - we have way too much fun for you serious types anyway!

You clearly didn't party with Maria and I in Atlantic City or you wouldn't say we're too serious to have fun.

I'll be at the Chicago conference and would love to meet each of you at booth 121! Anything exciting going to be within walking distance?
