Appco Group Product Owners meets for better strategic initiatives

The Appco Product Owners Meeting was an interactive day filled with motivational discussions led by Appco Group Senior Management.

The main aim of the meeting was to address business challenges and divisional issues. The day began with an introductory speech of the Chairman Chris Niarchos. He insisted in making the whole session interactive and started off such a format himself by stopping at intervals to allow other attendees to express their opinions. He went on to congratulate the success of all of the divisions and elaborate upon the importance of Campaign Managers in training Field Representatives.

The meeting went on to discuss other topics like, New Initiatives, Media Issues, the success of the Nationally Recognised Qualifications Scheme and a Business Development Update, all led by Appco Group Managing Director Mike Blane.

"The quality initiatives and sales training initiatives established three months ago had a huge effect on the business. Sales, conversion rates and averages all went up by 25% across all divisions.""We established a benchmark and the meeting allowed us to elaborate upon it so that it can be followed by the same astounding results in 2011.""It was an astonishingly successful day and everyone should be congratulated for a job well done!” - Chris Niarchos, Appco Group Chairman
