Among the new initiatives, seminars for exhibitors to improve sales through proper communication

The furniture sector is experiencing a period of continuous evolution. The question becomes more and more careful and selective, and the best companies should be able to gain competitive advantage over the competition. For this, the Studio Simonelli (Workshop of Ideas), in collaboration with GL events Lingotto Fiere and CNA Piedmont, will propose during Expocasa 2013 a series of seminars on communication involve the sale which provide participants with concrete opportunities for deepening. What is the correct way to "use" a Fair? Ecology and marketing are always represented as two opposite sides of the same coin: one rejects consumerism feeds the other; but it may be different from that? How can we best use the new tools of communication and the "network" to compete in the market? We can imagine to "sell" new lifestyles instead of simple furniture, relying on the concept of sustainability associated with that of economic prosperity? All these questions will try to answer the seminars to which we may register directly on the site of Expocasa. The cut is based on maximum concreteness: 45 minutes where you provide practical guidance, with ample space to allow participants to express their problems, which the expert will be able to provide adequate answers.
