From the desk of Mike Weaver, VP of Sales and Partnerships
It seems that everywhere you turn these days people are asking to fill out surveys. And we at DAT aren’t any different. What IS different is that we really listen, and truly value your feedback. Please take a few minutes and check out our survey below.
Once we compile all of that input, and mix it with our own market, industry, and product expertise, what results is a continually evolving toolset that fits the needs of a modern brokerage.
The perfect venue for us to share all of this is our annual user conference, DATCON. The theme of this year’s event is NEXT! (kind of reminds me of a Seinfeld episode, IYKYK). We have some exciting things in store for you this year, so please find the registration link below, but I’d be quick if I were you – we have a limited number of spots and they’re flying off the shelf.
To help sweeten the pot, here’s a sweet discount code: LTGtoKC gets you $200 off registration prices.
If you’d like to bring multiple people from your shop, just reach out to me. The more you bring, the more you save, but you gotta act fast! See you in Missouri!
Let’s. Truc*king. Go!
Cheers,
– mike
