Hey there, Deck Pro!

I hope this message finds you well! It’s Megan from Deck Expo, checking in about this year’s show – and specifically, the education. We’re seeking session proposals from industry pros like you.

Soooo, I know what you’re thinking – “Megan, Deck Expo is MONTHS away.” Which… is correct. But we’re looking to prepare the education now.

I was recently reflecting on this year’s NADRA Summit – the one where we all gathered in Clearwater, Florida in January to celebrate industry wins and honor the Deck Competition winners. If you were there too, you’ll recall the morning roundtables. In groups, we ran through hot topics like adapting to changing demands, products, trends, and lead generation.

It’s these kinds of issues that will be relevant to deck pros all year. And if you have a solution or idea, we want to hear from you. Please submit online, but use this guide to help prepare.

Community is what makes the Deck Expo so special. And it’s your unique perspective that creates a relevant education program. I know you care about decks and outdoor living – take this opportunity to share your knowledge.

The deadline to apply is March 15, 2024.

Questions? Comments? Need a pep talk? Let me know, and thanks for considering submitting a proposal!
