Kate on Conference and success

The brightest and the best of the consignment, resale and thrift industry will gather for NARTS Conference. Here's Kate's take on the whole thing.

She really thinks YOU should attend

How to get the most out of any meeting

If you haven't been making profitable use of Kate's 10 Simple Low- or No-Cost Ways to make $10,000 more a year all year, start now! So okay, you won't make $10,000 more between today and Conference...but you'll be on your way!


What to plan on doing

Take a look at what TGtbT will have for you at SourceMart!

So much to do at Conference, starting with optional events on Thursday, all the way through Monday morning. You won't want to miss a minute!

If you're making a Resale Road Trip out of attending Conference or heading home, you'll want to download and print out plenty of copies of Visiting Other Resalers, a little booklet to help you get the most out of visiting similar shops.

Lobby Bar,  6 Thursday: Be there!

Every year we have a TGtbT get-together before the "official" NARTS event. And a theme, just for fun. The Palm Beach theme (to wear, give away, whatever...) for our Sharing Get- Together Thursday evening at 6 in the hotel's lobby bar is She Sells RESALE Sea Shells by the Seashore!!

Join us at this completely-casual, drop in and order yourself a drink and introduce yourself event!

See all Kate's blog posts over the years about Conference. Some are more interesting than others (the posts, not the Conferences. They're always interesting.)

Just can't attend?

It happens. Babies get born, folks get married, legs get broken. Kate understands. Here's the next-best thing you can do on the last weekend in June

Products for the Professional Resaler to make your shop great!

Please Note: Kate Holmes and Too Good to be Threw have no financial stake whatsoever in the NARTS Conference or any of their functions. I just really think it would be good for your business if you come, and I’d like to meet you, and I can personally attest to the great ideas, enthusiasms, and lasting friendships I have made at the many past Conferences in which I volunteered, spoke, and participated. One more reason to come to Conference: I'll be there with my Products for the Professional Resaler that you can touch, smell, and buy. 'Course, if you want to study them beforehand, so you can ask me to critique your version of a suggestion I've made in them, feel free to order on-line.
