Outside the Box
Of course you can “read all about it” in detail at www.itexshow.com and in the well-crafted ITEX Brochure; but let me sum up what’s in store for you at the upcoming show. Each year, ITEX
goes outside the box to help you to:

Advance.
Where you’ll discover the latest products and innovative technologies that can move you beyond your core capabilities, driving your business down new paths.

Expand.
Where you’ll gain knowledge of processes and new strategies to reposition your business, generate new revenue streams, continuously improve and stay ahead of the competition.

Evolve.

A great way to connect with market-leading vendors and peers to grow your dealership, increase sales, decrease expenses and build profitable solutions.

With over one hundred best-in-class exhibitors, pre-conference workshops, essential education tracks, comprehensive MPS and managed services strategy forums, a managed services zone, a new document management and workflow solutions zone, and multiple networking opportunities, ITEX, in its 13th year, continues to provide a strong and reliable venue for providers to find the latest tools to help them secure their future – today.

Learning Curve – MPS/MS
Year after year, ITEX delivers a well-established MPS Strategy Forum that crystallizes key information to benefit those seeking to evolve their MPS business, targeting the maximum level of profitability. Industry thought leaders and providers will share best practices and new information in a series of strategic presentations. Here’s where dealers will learn to identify and apply the best resources to accelerate and reinforce their initiatives, as well as identify more ways to sell, monitor, measure, train, service, finance and leverage MPS using the latest methodology.

The industry is clamoring for information in the services sector and the Managed Services Strategy Forum won’t disappoint. For those dealers, MSPs, and business providers that want to expand or broaden their services portfolio to optimize today’s technologies, leaders in this space will share their knowledge on the steps needed to initiate, implement, and succeed in adopting and providing Managed Services.

Power Hours Prevail
In five dedicated “power hour” tracks, an array of leadership experts teach you the latest methods and strategies to converge and emerge powerful. ITEX is where you’ll learn the latest in hybrid solutions, service & supplies, document solutions, intelligent IT, cloud, mobility, business process automation, workflow and so much more. Besides what to sell and how to implement, you’ll learn what to market and how to service what your customers now expect. You’ll hear a variety of perspectives through lively discussions and panels on how the latest technologies and ongoing services are affecting consumers and yes, providers, today – and how you can capitalize on them!

2013 tracks will teach how to:

• Automate: Document & Workflow Solutions

• Deliver: Competitive Service & Supplies

• Engage: Sales & Marketing

• Evolve: Hybrid & Beyond

• Interact: Intelligent IT
