INDIANA-BASED EDGE DISTRIBUTOR GROUP MEMBER CTD MARKETING HOSTS POST-CEDIA GOLF OUTING / DEALER TRAINING EVENT IN INDIANA SEPTEMBER 20, 21 AND 27
For Those Dealers That Can’t Attend CEDIA, This Is A Great Opportunity To Be Trained
September 1, 2006 – Fort Wayne, Indiana - Ideal for those local home theater installation companies that can’t attend this year’s CEDIA event, Indiana-based EDGE Distributor Group member CTD Marketing is hosting their annual golf outing and dealer training event September 20 and 21 respectively at Caesars Resort in Southern Indiana, with an additional dealer training event being hosted September 27 at the Fort Wayne Memorial Coliseum. There, dealers will get a chance to meet one-on-one and personally be trained on today’s hottest custom integration tools with factory representatives from Furman Sound, Gefen, NEC, NûVision™, Peerless Industries®, Planar, Xantech, and ViewSonic®. “This is becoming a well-known installation event in the Indiana territory,” says CTD Principal Ron Harker. “At last years event, even with CEDIA in town, we had a great turnout. Now this year, with CEDIA being even further away in Denver, we are expecting a much larger gathering. And what a great way to get the technology to the dealers that need to see it; many of them that just don’t or can’t take the time to go to shows.” ”These events benefit both our manufacturer partners and our dealers; the manufacturers learn more about our dealer’s businesses and needs, and the dealers gain much more technical knowledge about the products. All of this fits perfectly into The EDGE Distributors Group’s continued commitment to provide our dealers with the best solutions and highest possible level of knowledge, education, and service,” added Harker. According to Director Katye Schmoldt, The EDGE Distributors Group differs from other distribution groups in that it offers products that are both a basic need and a unique niche for its dealers, typically employing a complementary line philosophy. The EDGE Group strategically selects the lines it carries, enabling the group to offer a full-suite of solutions to partners and dealers alike.
