The National Association of Trade Exchanges (NATE) has scheduled its
26th annual convention at the Astor Crowne Hotel in New Orleans
where nearly 30 trade exchanges are expected to attend, on June 3-5.
The convention, hosted by Crescent City Trade Exchange, consists of
seminars for trade exchange owners and brokers as well as sales
representatives. Topics of discussion will include, but are not
limited to the following: brokering in today’s economy, how to
expand your business through marketing and PR, referrals, and
facilitating successful trade fairs.
Along with the seminars and discussion panels, convention attendees
have plenty of action to look forward to this year. Many social
events are planned as a way for the various exchanges to interact
and learn what the others have to offer in hard goods and in travel.
NATE has also planned a dinner cruise on New Orleans’ Creole Queen
paddle-wheeler, and the annual awards ceremony will take place at
Michaul’s restaurant.
