ProSource Slates Town Hall Dinners

Member/vendor gatherings kick off June 20

By YSN Staff

ProSource, the country’s largest audio, video and integration group, has unveiled an expanded 2023 schedule of town hall dinners.

The popular program, sponsored by ProSource’s vendors, provides an informal, roundtable format in which members and manufacturers can enjoy an open dialogue, share best practices and collaborate on group programs and initiatives.

The regional dinners kick off June 20 in San Francisco and will conclude on Dec. 12 with gatherings in Austin, Texas, and Orange County, Calif. Each will be planned and hosted by a ProSource district manager.

“Every year we look to make these gatherings more impactful for both the members and vendors,” said Frank Marengo, director of sales, CI members, for BrandSource’s tech affiliate. “With the success we had last year, we have added a few more town halls to the lineup [and] are all extremely thankful and blessed that we can bring the best of the best members and vendors to one table.”

Jim Kozicki, ProSource’s VP of business development, said fostering collaboration is a fundamental part of ProSource’s strength.

“ProSource has a storied history of bringing members and vendors together to work collaboratively toward mutual growth,” Kozicki said. “Sales volume is only one aspect of that benefit; gaining product knowledge and finding new business efficiencies are also important aspects. Perennially, the ProSource regional Town Hall meetings have been a tried-and-true way to foster these interactions.

“Of course, none of this would be possible without the support and participation of the best vendor community in the industry,” Kozicki said. “I want to thank our wonderful members and fantastic vendors for coming together for this year’s Town Hall meetings, coming to a city near you soon.”
