Freshen Up for Fall

(Photo with tracker updates from May 2026. Arty Presented to B2B September 16, 2026.) This week's presenter was Arty Saffian of MacFarland Painting. Our normal write-up provider wasn't present, so if you weren't either, then this week you missed out big! Connect with...

Most careers are pretty straightforward. You learn your trade, get hired and learn some handbook procedures, meet your colleagues, digest key workplace dynamics, charge ahead. Then collect a paycheck; repeat. But sometimes they can contain an accumulation of moments —...

Most businesses have bought promotional products. Fewer have thought carefully about how well they actually work. This week, Hierank Marketing Solutions' own Matt Hall brought his industry's research to the table to answer that question — with data. The presentation...

What The Herd Can Teach Us About Ourselves

Most B2B feature presentations are built around being informative, but this week's was largely about introspection. Member and incoming B2B president Crystal Birchmeier of Happy Hooves Wellness pulled up a chair and invited the group into a conversation meant to show...
