With the ever-increasing popularity of the Western Roofing Expo and its educational seminars & demos, we are making a call to all members: Apply to teach a seminar at the upcoming Western Roofing Expo 2017 in Las Vegas! We believe the quality of our membership provides a valuable knowledge base to tap into, driving even more relevance and learning opportunities for our attendees.
Attached is our “Call for Presentations” form. If you have a product or service appropriate for an audience of roofing contractors (averaging 65 attendees per seminar this last year), then we encourage you to submit your seminar topic, with all relevant details asked on the application form. Once received, the WRE Convention Committee will evaluate and select the top 12 applicants for presentation in this coming year’s Expo.
We have provided several categories and target audiences from which to choose. However, if your product or service falls outside these categories, please send your form in for review regardless. It may still end up being included.
As many of you who have taught these seminars are aware, this is not a commercial for your product or service! In fact, on the seminar evaluation form, attendees are asked “Did the speaker avoid selling his/her product?” We do, however, allow 5-10 minutes at the end of the presentations to identify your company and give contact information.
With all the promotion that we do, including print, emails, vendor distribution, etc., your company will find the exposure well worth the investment of time and energy. Also, it will continue to boost the educational value that we have found is growing at the Western Roofing Expo; producing some of the most professional, informed roofing contractors in the country. Educated contractors are good for everyone.
We look forward to receiving your application no later than 11/1/2016. Please fill out all information on the form. Incomplete forms will not be considered. Click here to download the form, when finished, click SUBMIT FORM at the top of the document to return the completed form. If you're having trouble submitting the form, you can also email it to Joel Viera - WSRCA Director of Exposition & Events, at joel@wsrca.com
