Presented by Bruce Bolger, Founder of the Enterprise Engagement Alliance at TheEEA.org, and Paul Kiewiet MAS+, Executive Director of MiPPA, and founder of Brandkiwi, a full-service promotion agency that expanded into incentives and then promotional products.

This webinar, “Thrive:  Your Guide to Prosperity in the 2020s,” is for promotional professionals who wish to expand their businesses beyond selling promotional products to include other engagement solutions, including: brand gifting, surprise and delight technologies, and incentive, recognition, event, and other engagement services that can help clients achieve their business goals.

The program features Bruce Bolger, the Founder of the Enterprise Engagement Alliance, a leader in education on all aspects of engagement, with guest panelist Paul Kiewiet MAS+,  Executive Director of MiPPA who will be sharing the insights from his new book, “Summit: Reaching the Peak of Your Potential.” He will share his recommendations for distributors based on his 30 years in business as owner of a promotion and incentive company that became a prominent user of promotional products.

The opportunity: Promotional products professionals are exiting the pandemic facing a new world of both challenges and opportunity. Every promotional product is always a part of a broader engagement strategy—this webinar will show your members how to identify more of the different engagement services your customers might possibly need.

 This virtual webinar, sponsored by the Brand Media Coalition and the Enterprise Engagement Alliance, will explain how to thrive by leveraging promotional professionals’ problem-solving and relationship- building skills to add value to their relationships in human resources, marketing, sales, fund-raising, safety, recognition, government, education, and more.
