DEMA Expo 2009 Special Report

I will be arriving in Orlando, Florida later today and attending the 2009 DEMA Expo through Saturday.

I will be attending several of the marketing seminars to see where others in the SCUBA diving industry think we need to go and how to get there.

I will be interviewing everyone I can, trying to share marketing ideas and visions for the SCUBA industry with you, the readers.

I will also be working to uncover what the “common folk” – the expo attendees – see to be the biggest hurdles they face in the coming year for their business.

I will be sharing information as fast and furious as possible. If you’re on Twitter, be sure to watch (and use) the hashtag #DEMA.

If you’ll be in Orlando as well, please let me know!
