Thanks to everyone who stopped by at NRA! We’ll be sending out a follow up email to all of our NRA leads this week.

As expected, Folia was the star of the show. Below is a schedule of events and what is available when.

Please be sure to remember to follow-up on your NRA leads as quickly as possible. Additionally, a target account list should be created in Netsuite for Folia. To enter your target accounts, type Folia in the lead notes field. If the field already contains text, make sure there’s a comma and a space after the current text. Here’s an example: Catersource 2013, Folia
