Auditel National Conference 2019: the “best ever”!

10th January 2020

15^th November 2019 saw the Auditel network gather at the St Johns Hotel, Solihull for the Auditel National Conference, where they celebrated their 25^th Anniversary. Auditel Affiliates were welcomed with refreshments before an opening address from founder Chris Allison. 

Chris’s speech highlighted the journey that he and his wife Sylvia had taken leading up to the formation of the Auditel business and in the two and half decades since, culminating in the announcement that Chris Aston has been appointed as his successor, in the role of Managing Director. Chris Allison will take the role of Executive Chairman, and continued to remain fully involved in the evolution of the Auditel business.

There were four workshops throughout the day, based around new marketing solutions and sales training, delivered by Aston and Head of Sales Graeme McKinnon. Adrian Burton, Auditel Affiliate, ran a workshop on long-term client retention and all the sessions were well-received.

The guest speaker for the Conference was cave-diver Jon Volanthen, who lead the heart-warming rescue mission of the Thai boys football team in 2018, with their miraculous rescue through a rescue mission that drew upon local, and international, resources and expertise.

The evening activities started with a black-tie dinner and raffle in aid of the charity Steel Warriors, with well over £1000 being raised, before the Auditel 2019 award winners were announced and presented with their awards by Chris Allison and an award sponsor.

On completion of the award ceremony the network celebrated long into the evening – and for many who were especially thirsty – well into the early hours!

Following an atmosphere of enthusiasm, positivity and recognition of both an excellent event and a very productive year all round, there were many glowing messages fed back to the head office team following the event:
