The conference opens with several keynote speakers followed by sessions on understanding the demographics and psychographics of sailors; building your best sales team; highlights on tax reform, tariffs, and imports; and concludes with a case study review on Building, Executing and Analyzing and Integrated marketing plan and roundtable discussions on three major industry challenges.
