While we will make every effort to get you into a meeting with as many of your preferred retailers as possible, we cannot guarantee a meeting with each. Just like a live event, retailer popularity or a retailer no-show will have an impact on the number of people waiting to meet them.

If you do not complete a Retailer Preference survey by August 31, you will receive one last survey invite. You will have 24 hours to complete that survey. If you do not complete the survey, we cannot guarantee you will have an opportunity to meet with any retailers since the survey is used to create each meeting schedule.

Due to the limited time you will have with each retailer the best experience will be achieved if you meet with the retailers individually. Also, by meeting with retailers on an individual basis, you will have the opportunity to interact with more of the available retailers since you can "divide and conquer" those who you are most interested in meeting.

The speakers will be broadcast in a separate Networking Meeting Link. You can choose to join this meeting to view the speaker presentations at any time. Please note, you will not be able to meet with retailers from other links while you are in the Networking Meeting.
