KEYNOTE: 21st Century Sales | Tom Stimson | The Stimson Group When clients ask Tom Stimson ‘What is
the biggest challenge facing the audiovisual industry today?’ his answer
is quick and concise. “We use 1990 sales techniques on 21st century
clients and risk losing our sales channels to parallel industries.”
Tom’s Roadshow keynote will deconstruct these outdated sales models and
describe what we need - at a minimum – to compete going forward.
