See You At The Boardwalk!
It's finally here! Time to bask in the sun, learn some awesome stuff and spend some much needed quality time with the family!
Come join us for our first Ice Cream Social!
I scream! You scream! We all scream for ice cream!
Thanks to Carolina Atlantic, BMSA's Summer Conference will kick off with an ice cream social on the patio at the DoubleTree Resort. Ice cream will be served from 7:30 - 9:00 p.m. on Thursday evening, July 25th.
Come check into the hotel, grab dinner and then join us for ice cream on the patio. Whether you mix your ice cream flavors, are a vanilla purist or like to pile sprinkles on top, it'll sure be a fun and delicious start to the Summer Conference.
After loading up on ice cream, you can head down to the pool for the Dive-in movie at sunset.
See you in Myrtle Beach!

How LBM Dealers Can Recruit and Retain Top Talent
To succeed in a tight labor market, construction supply dealers must offer more than a competitive salary and generous benefits.
Valuable employees are the lifeblood of any business. They're knowledgeable, productive, and they consistently meet expectations. Then, of course, there are those rock stars who are fully engaged. They're not only productive, they are motivated to go above and beyond what's required of them. Additionally, their efforts often rub off on their peers-motivating them to be better performers.
Clearly, the contributions from each of these employees affect the colleagues and associates who work with them as well as the bottom line, which is why organizations should do their best to keep them. But how do you do that?
