Carpet One Floor & Home members gathered at the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center this week to network with their fellow store members and receive updates on new products and programs. Their theme – Go Beyond…Together – builds upon their winter convention theme and reminds the group of independent retailers to keep working towards improving their business.

The event hosted two highly acclaimed speakers – Jason Dorsey and Robin Crow.

Jason Dorsey returned to Carpet One Floor & Home Convention after a highly successful and entertaining presentation to members in January at their winter convention.  Dorsey is known as the “Gen Y Guy®” He has written many bestselling books including Y-Size Your Business and My Reality Check Bounced!

His presentation to members helped them understand the importance of relating to the younger generation. His use of humorous examples of generational differences helps to entertain while sending a strong message to store owners.

Robin Crow is a successful recording artist and business owner. His company, Dark Horse Recording, is home to well-known artists such as Faith Hill, Neil Diamond, Taylor Swift, Matchbox 20 and many more. His newest book, Evolve or Die, is a USA Today Best-Seller.
Crow encouraged members to learn how to adapt to change in order to help their businesses thrive. He also shared how members can stay a step ahead of their competition and why innovation is important.

Both speakers were instrumental in giving members the motivation and tools they needed to return to their store and make changes to help keep their businesses growing and profitable.
