Retailer Education Seminars at 2018 SHOT Show
As the Senior Director of Retailer Services for NSSF, my team and I spend months curating the topics for SHOT Week’s Retailer Seminars, and then recruiting top-level speakers who can pass on their subject-matter expertise to our retailers and range owners. This educational forum is always a sell-out with many of the seminars at standing-room only, and has overwhelmingly positive reviews post-show. That makes each year hard to improve one — but we think we did just that with the 2018 lineup.
