Andy Andrews Addresses BSA Conference Tables Session



Glen Ellyn, IL-In a departure from previous schedules, the Bearing Specialists Association (BSA) welcomed networking and relationship building expert Andy Andrews to help set the tone for the Conference Table Session. Andrews addressed attendees and spouses in a breakfast session before the opening of the association's traditional Conference Table Session.

Hailed by a New York Times writer as a "modern-day Will Rogers who has quietly become one of the most influential people in America," Andrews is an internationally known speaker and novelist whose combined works have sold millions of copies worldwide. His message to BSA focused on the importance of networking and relationship building between channel partners in today's ever-changing marketplace. The message was scheduled as an introduction to BSA Conference Table Sessions, short, one-on-one meetings between distributors and manufacturers to consider topics of mutual interest. These meetings are pre-scheduled on the BSA Annual Convention website to allow for advance planning and maximum results. Though they have always received high marks from convention attendees, in recent years the Conference Table Sessions have gained in importance as tight travel budgets and limited time have made other one-on-one meetings more difficult to arrange.

Andrews joined Connie Podesta and Dr. Michael Webber in a dynamic business program celebrating BSA's 45th anniversary of successfully bringing together the top level executives of what is now a $6 billion North American bearing industry at its annual convention designed for networking and knowledge sharing.

BSA is the "must belong to organization for authorized bearing distributors." An international service and educational organization of distributors representing a total of almost 100 companies distributing factory-warranted ball-, roller-, and anti-friction bearings and invited manufacturers of bearings and related products, the association's mission says, "BSA is the forum to enhance networking and knowledge sharing and promote the sale of bearings through authorized distributors."
