Business owners, executives and managers can register online in advance

(CSRwire) May 21, 2008 - Businesses looking to gain information about green consumer trends and insights are invited to attend earthNOW expo June 4-5, 2008 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

earthNOW expo, the national green products trade show, features exhibitors with eco-friendly products and services that will help retailers and other businesses attract and retain green customers.

A progressive conference program will help novice and experienced green businesses learn how to succeed as the green marketplace becomes more mainstream. The seminar program is designed to help businesses implement or improve their sustainable operations and increase customer loyalty by incorporating eco-friendly products and services into their merchandise mix.

Bob Peters, earthNOW expo show manager, said "The goal of the seminar program is to create a launching pad for new and established businesses. This face-to-face event allows business leaders to share ideas and walk away with a better understanding of what is happening in the green marketplace."

earthNOW expo attendees will gain a better understanding of eco-terms like sustainability, fair trade, social responsibility, post consumer waste, green washing, recycled products, organic, natural, etc. Armed with this knowledge, businesses can make better choices when making purchasing decisions.

Peters added, "Businesses today need to become serious about implementing environmental strategies as an overall company objective. Companies are ultimately responsible for the products and services they sell, and not doing so puts that company at a competitive disadvantage."

The earthNOW expo seminar presenters are established eco-business leaders specializing in product merchandising, pricing, consumer research marketing, operations and other business sectors.

Business owners, executives and managers can register online in advance. The Two-Day Full Conference and Exhibit Hall pass is only $350 per person. One-day conference passes are also available. Entrance to the exhibit hall is $35.

After May 30th, attendees must register on-site.

earthNOW expo takes place at the Las Vegas Convention Center on Wednesday June 4th from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. and Thursday June 5th from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m.

earthNOW expo is a trade show and open to all businesses. The convention is not open to the general public.
