Consultation Station: A Unique Opportunity for One-on-One Conversations With Service Providers

Booksellers who haven’t already scheduled appointments to meet with book industry service providers at the Winter Institute’s Consultation Station [1] are encouraged to do so soon.

Representatives from more than 15 organizations will be on hand from 2:15 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. on Friday, January 21, to meet one-on-one with booksellers, but it’s important to schedule appointments now.

Participants include the Ingram Content Group, the Winter Institute’s lead event sponsor; Constant Contact; Co-optimize; Franklin Fixtures; Paz & Associates; Monsoon, a provider of software tools for online sellers; POS vendors; ABA, its affinity partners, and IndieCommerce; ABFFE; and more.

The full list of participants, with contact information, is below. There are still some openings available, so Wi6 registrants who want to ensure they have an appointment should reach out to representatives via e-mail now.
