No matter what is on your agenda for the summer months, we hope you can join us at one or many of our upcoming regional advisor events happening throughout the country!

AppDirect advisor events help you connect with other channel leaders and learn new skills to drive revenue in your business. And whether you’re looking to reach new customers, or you want to maximize cross-sell and up-sell opportunities, AppDirect events can help you reach your goals.

AppDirect Regional Golf EventsNetwork & invite your customers

Please also consider joining us at one (or both) of our upcoming regional golf events to show our appreciation for our entire advisor community. Scheduled for July 26 in Chicago and September 12 in Denver, these golf events are sponsored by several top-tier AppDirect providers.

As a thank you, we also encourage you to invite your customers! It's an excellent opportunity to proactively reach out to individuals you want to connect or reconnect with. The day will include prizes for the top teams, other golf games, and door prizes provided by our sponsors. Besides a fun day on the golf course, you can use it to build engagement, checking in on customers' evolving challenges and business goals.

Reminder: Check out our Emerging Tech Bootcamps or Cloud Workshops

As a reminder, we also have several upcoming training events on the schedule built to significantly impact your business. If you want to grow your sales skills, consider a Cloud Sales Workshop in August in Fort Lauderdale, FL, or the follow-up cloud event in Chicago, IL, in September. You’ll learn how to successfully sell SaaS, security, cloud, and XaaS solutions at the cloud workshops. During the two-day course, you can expect hands-on training you can apply to your next customer conversations.

Or, if you’re looking to stay current on next-generation technology, don’t miss one of our Emerging Tech Bootcamps set for Miniappolies, MN, in August or September in Nashville, TN. Here you’ll learn about next-gen cybersecurity solutions, new Artificial Intelligence solutions, and much more.

The Emerging Tech Bootcamp events are designed for sales and engineering teams. They will give you the knowledge and background to make decisions about these new technologies confidently. AppDirect experts and providers with a range of technical expertise will guide you through the training. The event will provide practical insights and actionable knowledge you can apply immediately to your organization. The bootcamp will cover:

  • Artificial Intelligence (AI)
