IT Nation and The Road to Reinvention
This November, the JoomConnect team made their annual trip to Orlando, FL for the biggest IT channel events of the year: the HTG Q4 Peer Group meeting, followed by the 3-day IT Nation event. These events allow IT service companies from all over the country a chance to check out the newest solutions, hottest technology, and improve their leadership and business management skills by attending a series of workshops, training labs and presentations. During the events, JoomConnect presents services and solutions to new clients, as well as updated or improved solutions to current ones.
This year’s IT Nation was themed around the ideas of innovation and reinvention. One of the keynote speakers was celebrated entrepreneur Josh Linkner the found of ePrize, who spoke at length about the importance of reinvention and growth for a business. When the JoomConnect team members weren’t presenting their services at the solutions pavilions, they were attending educational breakouts and presentations, learning the overall climate of the technology community and improving their own leadership and management skills.
“One of the best parts about attending IT Nation is seeing our current clients, as well as meeting new ones. It gives us a great opportunity to bring feedback from our clients to our team, helping us improve our solutions and customer service,” said CEO, Chris Chase. “For us, IT Nation is about education. We go there to learn from clients, prospects, and the IT community at large, about what solutions and services JoomConnect can offer them to improve their business. We return to the offices with a better understanding of what our clients, both current and prospective, are looking for from our relationship with them. It’s all about learning to serve their needs better.”
During this year’s event, JoomConnect presented a few new solutions including their Marketing Plan Service and introduced Directive Studios’ newest services: MSP Marketing Commercials and Talking Head Videos.
