Experts Share Best Practices at the 13th Annual Vaughan Business-to-Business Expo
Local entrepreneurs will learn how the right focus and attention to building relationships can have an overall positive impact on their organization’s growth, including the bottom line. Attendees of the 13th annual Vaughan Business-to-Business EXPO will learn about the importance of developing a sales strategy that includes one of the most significant assets in business — relationships.
This year’s theme is Selling 3.0: Capitalize on Your Relationships. Participants will have an opportunity to network with peers and market leaders.
