Most years I attend both the winter and summer Carpet One conventions, which, by the way, are extremely well produced affairs that rival the production of anything that the people in Hollywood can put together. They’re big, they’re loud and they’re packed with informative speakers, educational session, new marketing ideas, new products and a trade show with dozens and dozens of suppliers.
This summer, however, because of a previously made commitment prior to knowing the dates of the Carpet One affair, its summer convention went on without me.
