First Session of Spring Breakfast Series- “The New Face of Sales”

Spring has (almost) sprung, which means it’s time for our first session of EMU’s Center for Digital Engagement Spring Breakfast Series, “The New Face of Sales.” This session will take place on Friday March 3rd from 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM at the EMU Student Center. Make sure to sign-up!

The New Face of Sales will provide insights on how to deliver measurable sales improvements. As we all may know, the digital environment today has turned the traditional sales process completely around. With this comes questions like, what are the most effective ways to find prospects and close leads? What defines your customer’s journey as they explore solutions online and off? What are relevant advertising and tracking tools? 

Our panel of experts includes Luke Retterath, Director of Demand Generation, Duo, Bharati Hulbanni, Director of Client Services, Torrent Consulting, and Alex Merz, Strategy and Operations Manager for AdWords Sales, Google.
