The initial leg of the tour was held at various AVAD
branches from Oct. 11-13, drawing numerous dealers who were able to experience
six new products from leading manufacturers Bose, Sharp, Optoma and Lutron.

“This event was a really great opportunity to get direct
interaction with the manufacturers,” said Chad Carlson of A Universal
Connection in Deerfield, Fla., in an AVAD statement. “In addition to learning
more about these new products and business opportunities, we get to voice our
opinions and concerns directly to the reps who can help us with our business.”

 “I really liked that
the events were well organized and held at a time that made it convenient for
us without disrupting our business,” said Hector Yanez of Fort Lauderdale’s
HY-FY Audio & Video. “I learned a lot of things that I can take back
immediately and use to help grow our business.”
