The Industry Event 2007

San Antonio, Texas (August 2007) - Over 350 convenience store and petroleum industry leaders gathered this week in San Antonio, Texas for PDI’s 2007 Users Conference and Training Seminar. The annual event is the industry’s premier technology conference and provides hands-on training, seminars, and networking opportunities. Classes included detailed information on store automation, fuel, finance, point-of-sale, and PDI/Enterprise, the industry’s leading software solution.

After five years of development, the network-centric PDI/Enterprise already has over 100 installations automating companies from 10 to 2000 stores. PDI/Enterprise is the only seamless software system to provide a complete and proven automation solution from the corporate financials to the store back-office. With all the excitement surrounding PDI/Enterprise, many classes offered at this year’s conference were centered on the details for maximizing the benefits of PDI/Enterprise. Topics also included insider tips for utilizing PDI/RMS as well as other business and accounting strategies. All attending customers moved to the next level of doing business electronically.

Billy Barrett, Jackson’s Food Stores Retail Automation Manager, explains, “I come to the PDI Users Conference for several reasons. I find out about the latest PDI information. Also, the networking opportunities are very important. The conference gives me the opportunity to develop relationships with other customers, resulting in invitations to see how their operations work. I learned important information in my very first class, called my office, and it is already being implemented!”

Dr. John Trent, inspirational speaker, author, and president and founder of The Center for Strong Families and StrongFamilies.com served as the conference Keynote and Prayer Breakfast speaker. He inspired all attendees to utilize their natural strengths to the best of their abilities using entertaining exercises and audience participation.

Other PDI Users Conference highlights included Monday’s Technology Showcase, an opportunity for attendees to discuss the latest in proven hardware and software technology with over 15 industry-leading vendors. The always popular Roundtable Discussions gave attendees a chance to exchange ideas and best practices with their industry colleagues.
