Best of Both Worlds:
All Day with Hero Arts & Sizzix
GROW YOUR BUSINESS:
All classes are especially planned for YOU, the independent Paper Crafting Retailer and your team--store managers, and in-house teachers. Events are planned so that you can return to your store with not only the best new products, but also with the latest paper crafting techniques to help GROW YOUR BUSINESS and MAKE MORE MONEY.You will learn how to teach the classes that you take so that you can offer those same classes to your customers, building enthusiasm and maximizing sales.
MEET TOP VENDORS:
The FREE Tradeshow on Sunday allows you to speak personally to the key personnel from each of the vendors in a much more relaxed and intimate setting than you ever could at the "major" shows. It really gives you a chance to talk with them, to get ideas about how to maximize the sales of their products in your stores. In addition, you may take advantage of their show specials only offered to attending stores!
NETWORK:
In addition to meeting with the vendors, you have a unique opportunity to network with other store owners from around the country to share ideas, tips, and stories.
FUN:
All of this (yes the schedule is jam-packed), plus LOTS OF DOOR PRIZES, GIVE-AWAYS, SHOW SPECIALS, and a great social evening of Make n’ Takes and desserts on Saturday night. And don't miss the Product Lightning Round on Friday for a quick overview of the Hottest Products in the market.

Our vendors will be set up to do a 5 minute project for you to finish and jump to the next table and the next and the next! Vendors will provide the supplies and inspiration. We will provide the caffeine and the dessert to keep you going.
