“We’re thrilled to welcome ProSource members and vendors to our largest and most exciting Summit yet,” says Heidi Gunderson, Director of Marketing and Events. “This year, we’re bringing together the PRO, Power, and Custom Integration tiers of the ProSource membership for three days of networking, education, business meetings and product showcases in Nashville. Attendees can look forward to more educational sessions, more exhibitors, and additional demo rooms! We’re excited to be returning to Nashville at the Gaylord and can’t wait to see everyone there.”
ProSource is excited to welcome Kevin Brown as the ProSource and BrandSource keynote:
Kevin Brown’s unconventional path to business and personal success has taught him that winning in business and in life requires anything but conventional thinking. With a streetwise aptitude and a never quit attitude, he worked his way from the front lines in business to the executive boardroom. For two decades, Kevin was a sales and marketing executive that helped grow a little-known family business into an industry giant with annual revenues reaching two billion dollars.
After a career in franchising that spanned 30 years, Kevin decided to pursue his passion for bringing The HERO Effect® message to as many people and organizations as possible. The HERO Effect® is a simple philosophy that separates world-class organizations and high-performance people from everybody else. Kevin now helps people expand their vision, develop their potential, and grow their results. And, as the father of a child with autism, he knows firsthand how the principles of true success reach beyond the boardroom and into the lives of real people facing the challenges of everyday life.
Kevin is the bestselling author of The Hero Effect®. In his second book, Unleashing Your Hero, Kevin shares how the heroes who transformed his life are people just like you. People who were willing to use their gifts and abilities to serve others at a high level. This book is a guide to help everyday people discover and unleash their hero at work and in life.
