WellComms, a press release notes, isn’t new: This year, however, instead of only being available to CRN members, it is rebranding and opening registration to the whole industry. The virtual conference will take place June 16 and 17, and will increase attendees’ practical knowledge while providing networking opportunities.
The conference will feature six sessions over two days. Topics will include emerging trends in the wellness business; getting a team to work smarter, not harder; and “The Situation Room,” an entirely interactive session that will solve workplace drama in real time.
“CRN has its finger on the pulse of the wellness industry’s needs,” said Brian Wommack, CRN’s SVP of Communications. “Marketing and communications professionals from top companies in the dietary supplement, nutritional ingredient, and consumer packaged goods spaces are seeking inspiration and solutions to help them amp up staff bandwidth, generate sales, and drive growth—while being asked to do more with fewer resources. That’s where WellComms comes in.”
