Welcome Message from the Convention Chair
As the Chair of the this year’s organizing committee I want to welcome everyone to the 2022 Atlantic Insurance Brokers Convention! After two years we are happy to host this event LIVE and IN PERSON! The theme selected reflects our desire to “hit that play button” and move into the future; but with that said we have also brought back a few fan-favorite activities. This event provides a platform for regional brokers to exchange ideas, advance business solutions and most importantly to re-connect. We have an exciting two days planned and hope that everyone who attends, leaves either learning one new thing or adds one new contact to build their social network.

The 3 Hard sales lessons that took me 15 hard years get right (but you’ll get in 59 minutes)
- How my first 15 years in sales wasn’t 15 years of sales experience but rather the same miserable 15 years over and over again.
- Show how each cracking the code on 3 hard lessons led to more truth, way shorter sales cycles and more wins.
- 50% Fundamentals/50% Tactical Examples.

Kick Ass Communication
In today’s fast paced and ever changing world, being able to effectively communicate is key, but it's not always easy. In this session we look at top tips for effectively communicating both in person and virtually, ensuring all parties are understood and engaged in any discussion, and that everyone walks away clear and satisfied.
