Baltimore to Host ComicsPro Nuts and Bolts Conference
ComicsPro, the comics specialty retailer trade association, has announced that registration is now open for the Comic Industry One-Day Conference. Held on September 27, 2018 at the Baltimore Convention Center, this conference will feature a series of one-hour presentations to help retailers improve their businesses.
“This is the fist one-day conference we’ve organized,” said Peter Dolan, President of ComicsPro. “It will hopefully be the first in a series of fall conferences – each focused on ‘nuts-and-bolts’ presentations/workshops.”
This year’s presentations will be announced in the coming weeks. They may include working with schools, Free Comic Book Day, Local Comic Shop Day, social media class, working with universities and libraries, human resources, diversifying product mix, building a kids section and customer base or how to profitably sell back issues.
Every retailer attending the Comic Industry One Day Conference will be presented with a gift bag that will include a copy of the 2018 Baltimore Comic-Con VIP Yearbook (Strangers in Paradise) and various other giveaways from Diamond and major publishers. Attending retailers will also receive free attendance to the Baltimore Comic-Con.
“We are super happy and excited that the Comic Industry One-Day Conference is the day before Baltimore Comic-Con,” said Marco Davanzo, Executive Director of ComicsPro. “Baltimore Comic-Con is one of the best in the business. Fans and vendors love it.”
The cost for registration is $19 for ComicsPro members and $29 for non-member storefront retailers. Publishers, distributors, and other interested comics professionals are also invited to attend.
ComicsPro is a non-profit trade association dedicated to the health and progress of direct market comic book retailers. ComicsPro allows retailers to speak with a unified voice on important industry issues, provides educational and mentoring opportunities to current and future retailers, and provides ways for members to reduce fixed costs.
Those interested in sponsoring this conference are encouraged to contact Marco Davanzo at marco@comicspro.org.
