During the meeting, owners will be able to choose from a variety of training sessions presented by the BaseCamp Franchising staff. Topics include how to train and manage merchandise buyers, best ways to maximize profits, upcoming trends and fashions and how to effectively market on a budget. In addition to training, franchise owners will have the opportunity to hear from industry expert speakers Mel Kleiman and Ted Manley.
