How about a Celebrity Cooking Demonstration by The Cooking Channel’s Shannon Ambrosio, host of Big Bad BBQ Brawl. Working on Napoleon grills, Shannon will be cooking up one of his signature recipes and providing retailers ideas they can duplicate in their own store demonstrations. Shannon will also be conducting a meet-and-greet at the Napoleon booth on Friday afternoon. Stay tuned for details.

About the Speaker: Since joining Hoffman York in 1992, David has consistently developed solid strategies and campaigns in b2c, b2b, building products, and manufacturing arenas. Prior to joining HY, he managed national advertising at Kohler Co., building the “Bold Look of Kohler” brand to the number one position it enjoys today. His extensive experience with leading companies such as Kolbe Windows, Merrillat Cabinets, Pulte Homes, Kohler, Milgard Windows, and Napoleon, gives him invaluable perspective on the important intersections between brand, channel, consumer, and product marketing. BONUS!
