CDT News Week of April 13-17

As you know, the Hunter Douglas Beginner Class has been rescheduled to Wednesday, April 29 from 10-1. Due to the date change, we have the opportunity to share with you some "Hot Off the Press" news and introductions that were just unveiled this past week at the "Premiers" seminars. There are new products, new pricing, and lots of other changes and additions that you need to know about if you sell Hunter Douglas. In order to accommodate this, the beginning of the session, from 10-11:15 will be new product introductions, geared to EVERYONE, regardless of level of expertise. The remaining time, 11:15-1:00 will be geared to the beginner level.
