Dear Fellow Industry Professional, As the 2009 President of the National Kitchen & Bath Association, I sincerely hope that you’ll join me from April 30 to May 3 for the NKBA’s Kitchen/Bath Industry Show & Conference. I’d like to welcome you to Atlanta for the largest and most comprehensive trade show in the industry. This is an exciting opportunity to strengthen

your career or business through networking, education, and expo-sure to the industry’s latest and most innovative products and ideas.

The kitchen and bath each play such a significant role in the daily living of today’s homeowners and families that we’ve given K/BIS 2009 the theme “Heart of the Home.” K/BIS can help give you the knowledge and inspiration to enhance your business through education, finding new products, and networking.

Spend time at NKBA Center Stage, where you can learn more about energy-efficient lighting, multi-generational design, the truth about granite and radon, secrets of a great kitchen, and how to identify your best customers. In this rapidly changing economy, give yourself a competitive advantage—the power of knowledge.

The NKBA continues to strive for excellence in the kitchen and bath industry by giving industry professionals access to top educators, business resources, and a support network of more than 40,000 members. K/BIS is the NKBA’s way of bringing all of these benefits together, and my goal is to bring all of you together for K/BIS. I look forward to seeing you in Atlanta.

Sincerely,

Suzie Williford2009 NKBA President

Conference at K/BIS 2009

NOTE: Digital CEU Forms at K/BIS – In an effort to pursue sustainable practices, while also saving time and reducing costs, the NKBA will no longer use paper CEU or survey forms at any K/BIS events. Instead, the NKBA will scan your K/BIS badge to record your attendance at the event and then e-mail you a link to the online version of the form approximately three days after K/BIS ends. You must click the link in each e-mail message and complete the online CEU/survey form for each event in order to earn CEUs. If you do not complete this online form for any event you attended, you will not receive CEU credit for that event.

Distributors Event Friday, May 1 • 12:00 p.m. – 1:45 p.m.Harry GianettiUMRP and the Internet: The Challenges Faced by Today’s Manufacturers, Distributors, and DealersIn a technologically advanced market, consumers have

become savvier in product research, knowledge, and purchasing. Manufacturers, distributors, and dealers must work together and adapt new sales methods to accommodate their well-informed clients. The Internet advantage can no longer be ignored. How can a manufacturer protect its brand value? Can a dealer justify the cost of maintaining a showroom? How can a distributor help ensure the dealer sufficient profits to do this? When competing Internet sales require little or no investment, creative solutions are a necessity.

Harry Gianetti has served as VP of Sales for Thermador, VP of Sales and Marketing for BSH Home Appliances, Senior VP of Sales and Marketing for Mills Pride, and VP of North American Sales for Elica. Through his range of experience, Gianetti provides an interesting perspective on both the problems and the solutions to current marketing conflicts.

Steve conveys personal experiences ranging from his mother’s alco-holism and breast cancer to his own successful battle over alcoholism.

Following these presentations, Randall Whitehead, internationally known architectural lighting designer, author of seven books, Residential Lighting Magazine columnist, and regular guest expert on the Discovery Channel, CNN, HGTV, and Martha Stewart Living Radio, will discuss how energy-efficient lighting installed throughout a home can be just as attractive as the more commonly used incandescent fixtures. Architectural and decorative fixtures have undergone a revolution in design, which now includes recessed fixtures, linear strip lights, pendants, and sconces that use fluorescent and LED lighting. Fixtures using both of these energy-efficient sources come in a range of dimmable color temperatures. Incorporating green lighting options can result in a beautiful and energy-efficient design solution.
