Magic Valley Advertising Federation

April AdFed luncheon presentation

April 21st @ Shilo Inn
Check in starts at 11:30am

Retail Event Success

Tom Ashenbrener, Owner of Rudy's A Cook's Paradise will present his formula for successful retail events.

Join the Magic Valley Advertising Federation for this glimpse into retail history.
The magic is finding the people who share the same passion. Recently a Boise Weekly writer had this to say about Rudy's, "Rudy's puts anything in Boise's currently anemic kitchen supply scene to shame with 3,000 square feet of floor space devoted to cooking and dining supplies."

It's this kind of passion for their product that translates into successful events positioning them as the foremost dining consultants in the area. Tom's presentation will provide insight into launching your own business events.

Registration begins at 11:30 a.m., presentation at noon. Choice of steak, chicken or salmon; please include your choice when you reply. Members $10, Member-guest $10, Non-members $25. Please call Susan Nickell at 420-8371 to RSVP or e-mail mvadfed@gmail.com
