Terry Weaver’s 14th annual Amenity Community Excellence in Selling (ACES) Conference is officially underway at the Marriott Resort in Hilton Head, S.C. Although the economy has affected attendance (no surprise there), the overall mood of the event is positive. ACES attendees are traditionally focused on knowledge sharing and networking – never has this been more relevant than today. The event goes through tomorrow (Feb 4th).

Session topics today include persuasive communication tips, the power of positive leadership and Deven’s upcoming panel discussion on leveraging technology to improve marketing and sales productivity. Tomorrow’s sessions include influence strategies for a tough market, a strategic system for sales success and Terry’s final general session on success in 2009. BrightDoor is pleased to continue our participation with Marketing & Sales Institute (MSI) and this vital industry event.
