As the nation tip toes into re-opening, retailers have to engage with vendors again. What are the best (and worst) practices? What does a productive conversation look like? How do you prepare? We'll cover this, plus more. Time for Q&A reserved at the end too!

Vendor relationships (during a pandemic)
We're in a unique position to receive transparent messages from brands, inside sales reps, outside sales reps, and national sales managers. In prep for this webinar I have had discussions with 10+ of my closest outdoor sales reps across the country to assemble a consensus with perspective.
Collectively (and I think instinctively) we possess the common desire to do good. On the flip side, we also possess the primal behavior to protect ourselves in times of uncertainty. How can we weigh the options and figure out what's best?
Agenda:
-Concerns of retailers
-Hurdles of brands/vendors
-Absorb, assess, react
-Productive conversations
-Best/worst practices
-Questions (type in the chat box)
