about the upcoming Coastal Connections Conference!

We are always under a time crunch at trade shows

but this event will allow us

to talk shop with retailers

in a fun, relaxing venue

with a margarita in hand.”

“My husband and I were

super excited to find out about

the Coastal Connections

Conference! In 20 years of retail

I have never seen an opportunity like this to join together with other seaside retailers in this way.

We are looking forward

to meeting others.”

“Being in a coastal location creates specific challenges

 so I signed up for this

conference as soon as I learned

about it. I’m looking forward to

hearing the speakers, meeting

other owners, and bringing

back seaside-specific tips,

ideas, and motivation!”
