avoiding the heat and humidity of Atlanta in July! Todd will
offer insights as to how YOU can benefit from your CorpNet

that can be leveraged using the SalesRepCentral community.
It's an opportunity to meet local SREP members and expand
your prospect list.
The discussion group features a panel of executives from the
Atlanta Braves, Atlanta Hawks, Atlanta Thrashers, Atlanta
Falcons and Atlanta Beat. The topic for the panel is "How
to do Business with Atlanta's Sports Teams." This event
will be co-sponsored by downtownATL: Social Crew (http://www.socialcrew.com).
