Sandhills Publishing to Host Upcoming Annual Industry Forum in Lincoln, Nebraska

LINCOLN, Nebraska — August 1, 2018

Sandhills Publishing will host its Global Forum, an annual two-day event, August 7th and 8th in Lincoln, Nebraska. For more than two decades, the annual Global Forum has brought together dealers, brokers, auctioneers, manufacturers, and service providers in the construction, agriculture, trucking, and aviation industries from all over the world. This year’s forum is expected to host more than 400 professionals for discussions about current and emerging technology, industry trends and emerging opportunities, and a first look at current and upcoming product rollouts from Sandhills Publishing.


This year’s Global Forum includes seminars and roundtable discussions as well as one-on-one workshops and feature speakers. Attendees will gain insights into simplifying challenges such as parts identification and procurement, asset valuations, inspections, and advertising to streamline remarketing, mitigate risk on trades, and improve margins. Seminars will also focus on potential roadblocks to sales—including financing, costly shipping logistics, and insurance—and offer user-friendly solutions that integrate seamlessly into sales processes. One-on-one workshops provide attendees with opportunities for focused conversations about website upgrades, retail exposure, leveraging wholesale and auction platforms, and more. Attendees can also visit the vendor expo to consult with Sandhills’ preferred website providers and a number of other exhibitors.


“The global forum is an opportunity for business leaders to collaborate on challenges, assess pain points, and analyze strategic market opportunities alongside solutions designed specifically for these industries,” explains Sandhills Publishing’s Chief Administration Officer Nancy Paasch. “Attendees return to their businesses with insights and solutions they can implement right away in ways that improve sales and increase internal efficiencies and overall profitability.”


Two featured speakers will headline this year’s Global Forum events: Aaron Thomas will kick off the event with a presentation on overcoming adversity, while Ann Duignan of J.P. Morgan will deliver the keynote address. The Global Forum will conclude on the evening of August 8th with a reception at Sandhills’ global headquarters.
