Just returned from presenting five seminars at one of the largest apparel trade shows in the world!
Las Vegas was full of the fashionable and the not so fashionable for this bi annual show, which occupies most of all the large hotels and the whole of the Las Vegas convention center.
The buyer’s attendance was down but to my surprise the seminar attendance was up. All our seminars that the FBI presented were full. Much to my own amazement, my last seminar on how to start your own apparel company was at the max of 300 and still some where unable to get in the door.
Maybe, when the economy is down then people turn to entrepreneurial ventures. It would be interesting to track the businesses started and the percentage of successful apparel start-ups who have attended my seminars or have read my books. Of course it has always been my plan/wish that all our hard work in presenting these seminars would be helpful and would assist in making good future business decisions.
