ISPA Conference Draws 200+ Executives

By Home Furnishings Business in on March 20, 2013

More than 200 mattress industry professionals gathered in Orlando early this month for the 2013 International Sleep Products Association conference.

Those included mattress manufacturers, retailers and suppliers from coming together for education, networking and a little rest and relaxation.

The Conference offered attendees timely and relevant educational sessions geared specifically toward the interests of the mattress industry. Topics included marketing to the €œrationally irrational,€ the importance of search engine optimization and social media, updates on mattress recycling legislation, ways to increase creativity and imagination in the workplace, and finally, how to really understand an important demographic€”Generation Y.

€œThis Industry Conference was a tremendous success,€ said John Grove Sr. of Spring Air. €œThe quality of speakers and the educational programming were excellent. My two sons, John Jr. and David, and I, were able to take full advantage of the agenda and the many networking opportunities offered.€

€œTraveling to the ISPA Industry Conference in Orlando from California was a worthwhile trip,€ said Robin Azevedo of McRoskey Mattress Co. €œI have already shared and even put some marketing and retail ideas into action.  Networking is always valuable, and I€™ll be meeting with a couple of other attendees in the next two weeks. The up-to-date status of the recycling legislation in California and other states is critical information, and I appreciate ISPA€™s efforts of keeping us informed and involved.€

When attendees weren€™t engaged in the educational sessions, they were networking and catching up with friends during one of ISPA€™s many receptions, including a special event for the ISPA Women€™s Network where they mixed and mingled with other like-minded women in the mattress industry.
