In May, Automatic Merchandiser's Vending & OCS Nation Podcast host Bob Tullio is going to go cerebral on you and he’s going on location to the NAMA Show in Atlanta.
The first May podcast will talk about making equitable deals – deals that work for everyone. And we’ll hear from some industry leaders, like Matthew Marsh, Arthur Siller, Dan Welch and Jon Holden – on the importance of making deals that are “Good for you – Good for Me.” Well worth the listen.
Then, Tullio heads to the NAMA Show in Atlanta, where he will ask operators two important questions – what exhibit at the NAMA show offered something that will truly have an impact on your business – what blew you away at NAMA? He’ll give his own take on those questions as well.
