Upcoming Meeting
FRIDAY, September 6, 2019
Opening Discussion Topic:
Developing Your Key Marketing Person: Why? How?
Most CEOs of businesses – or self-contained business units – with less than 100 people, have an emerging problem with their marketing departments. They just don’t know it. So what’s the simplest, fastest, and most effective way to solve for this disconnect?
Following a brief background presentation, we’ll discuss four questions:
-
- IF you don’t already have the right “Key Marketing Person” in place, how long will it take to attract, hire, onboard, and get them to “do the right things”?
- IF you already have someone you believe can be developed into your Key Marketing Person, what key things should this person be doing to enhance their Marketing effectiveness?
- How can you, as their employer, accelerate this process?
- And, ensure you get the results you wanted?
As always, we’ll look to hear and discuss, “What’s Keeping You Up Nights?”
We’ll also be serving as Strategic Advisory Board Members to our Featured Member Presenter: Randy Heyler
Randy Heyler is the Site General Manager of Coherent Monrovia, and was formerly the CEO of Ondax, Inc., prior to its acquisition, in the fall of 2018, by Coherent, Inc.

"I probably would have to pay 16 consultants to get the kind of great information I get from the Round Tables and the people in my group."
"ABL has been a great pay-off for me and I have found great value. It has brought me help in financing the company, resolving financial issues, and customer problems. And it’s served for personal growth, too."
"ABL is the best business meeting series I have ever attended. It is a professional organization for CEOs and Presidents, where the Members bring the real day to day business cases to the meeting and share opinions and solutions. I do my best to participate every meeting I can."
"The big thing that ABL provides to us is that it’s companies of like interests, as opposed to other types of groups that have CEOs with maybe very divergent interests."
"The best thing for me about ABL are the great people in the Organization. It’s a caring group of people, they are very open in sharing their own problems, and that leads to an environment where you can share your problems back. And they’re non-judgmental. They’ll give you the best advise they can. You can take it or not."
