Let’s recap one of our favorite days of the year!

Nothing beats having the entire Sam Tell team together under one roof! Last Friday, we came together for our Annual Sales Summit, a day filled with learning, networking, collaboration, and most importantly, spending quality time with the people who make Sam Tell what it is. It’s always a special opportunity to reconnect, strengthen relationships, and share ideas as we continue to grow together!

A huge thank you to all of our participating vendors for helping make this day possible. We couldn’t do it without you!

And a special thank you to Professor Sonia Marciano from NYU Stern School of Business for taking us back to business school with an insightful presentation to close out the day!

Already looking forward to next year!
