Las Vegas Market

My mentor attends a couple business trips a year and the Las Vegas Market is one of the most important ones. My mentor looks up to this day because it gives him a huge opportunity to meet with potential clients. When he came back from his trip he told me how competitive the market gets. He said he met with a few people who were intrested in doing business with him. There are people from all over the world who attend the Las Vegas Market. It amazes me to see how great of a turn out a sales representative can get from attending an event this important.
