Varnex Insider May 2018 - Issue 79 | Page 2

VARNEXUPDATE Dear Varnex Member, First, I’d like to say I’m honored to serve as Varnex Advisory Council President for the next two years. Outgoing president Bruce Enright and the Council have done a great job developing the community, and I’m excited to keep it going. One of the Council’s goals for 2018 is to grow member engagement. The more engaged we all are with things like Varnex University, the member website, and this magazine, the more we all benefit. There’s so much more to Varnex than conferences and events, so please be sure to take advantage of all the tools and resources available to you. You can find everything you need on the Varnex member website. We’re also encouraging members to engage more with our vendors. They’re here to support you and help grow your sales, so I’d like to challenge everyone to get out of their comfort zones and make a new connection. Talk to vendors, get to know them, see how they can help you. Do that, and together we will grow. Speaking of growth, Varnex University continues to expand with more than 300 alumni to date. Let’s keep that growth going. Registration is open for Sales Skills and Leadership 201, both coming up in June, so sign up now before the classes fill up. We’re also looking to add more global knowledge training via online classes and webinars. Additionally, we’re talking to some of our vendors about potentially offering technical or sales certification training. There’s a lot of great stuff in the works. To keep from missing out, check in on the member website, or better yet, actively participate in the discussion forums. Finally, we always welcome member input. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to contact me or any member of the Council. You can find our contact information on page 6. The Varnex support team is also happy to help.
