RALEIGH, N.C., Feb. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ChannelPro kicks off its 2019 ChannelPro SMB Forum tour of four live, full-day business-building events next month in Atlanta on March 6.

"Our tour this year is focused on helping our attendees successfully grow their business. As usual, we do it with the help of an amazing group of expert coaches and vital vendor and distributor support."
This year's educational sessions include:
MSP Pain Point Clinic: Managed services consultants Karl and Manuel Palachuk will help members of our audience tackle real-world business challenges like pricing, hiring, and getting paid on time.
Get Ready for Managed Everything: Our panel of experienced MSPs will conduct a fast-paced panel discussion of real-world opportunities in hardware as a service, communications as a service, disaster recovery as a service, and other cloud and noncloud solutions.
Sales Tip Shootout!: In this highly interactive session, three leading sales consultants will provide concrete advice on challenges that channel pros face every day, from landing appointments and overcoming objections to cross-selling services and beyond—and attendees get to vote on the best tipster!
Peer to Peer: Winning in Cybersecurity: Listen in on three one-on-one conversations with your channel pro peers about proven best practices for launching a security practice, selling security services, and more.
