Topic: But I Don’t Want ElderCare, Beware these
Aging Myths!

Speaker: Author & Aging Expert, Terry Lynch
specializes in helping older people remain as
self-reliant and involved in community life as
possible, and helping caregiving family members
maintain the quality of their own lives. Terry
has been advancing the independent living cause
since 1977, when he served as assistant to the
Director of the White House Conference on
individuals with disabilities. He then managed a
federal disability rights program and had a key
role in developing what is now the National
Disability Rights Network. Through this
illuminating personal experience and his work with
other families, Terry learned that we have more
control over the quality of our lives as we age
than we realize, and how we can maintain this
control.

These Aging and Technology Webinars are open to
anyone and everyone in the aging and technology
field and meant to educate, grow the industry and
learn from each other.

WHY ATTEND EHX AS A DEALER???

GrandCare is sponsoring the Home Health Technology Pavilion and will be speaking on a few of the educational tracks! We are seeking both tech vendors and dealers to come and join us and learn why they cannot afford to not ride the aging tsunami!!

Have you heard the news — EHX has dealers from every state in the country registered to attend the show in Orlando. That’s right; they see and understand the overwhelming value of attending EHX Spring, March 25-27, 2010. Can you afford not to get in front of 2,000 dealers who have paid a registration fee to attend the show? We don’t think anyone can really pass up this year’s event. We’ve overcome all your concerns, so come jumpstart your year by exhibiting.

The dealers won’t pay to attend an expo?
That’s an easy one. EHX is more than an expo; it’s the path to growth. Serious dealer are registered and they are coming to Orlando. Over 1,500 CEDIA classes have already been reserved as part of the New Opportunities Pass. Believe us when we tell you dealers see the value.

57% of EHX attendees are Executive Management
A total of 68% hold Management titles

EHX is not in my budget
We’ve developed lots of ways to help you get in the show. Just ask us. We have discounts on hotels and reductions in your contractor costs to help you out. In addition, we have cost effective turn-key exhibit options that can be staffed with just a single person. You need to be there, so let’s talk!

Where’s the quality?
Another easy one. Did we mention that everyone is paying to attend EHX Spring this year? That means there are serious decision makers attending show. It’s not about the quantity; it’s about the quality.

58% of pre-registered attendees are final decision makers
A total of 84% have a role in either recommending, specifying, or deciding on new products or vendors

Get involved with EHX and find new business in 2010.
