Sound Sales Policy 1956

CEDA Board

 

May 18, 2020
The Association moved forward. “Sound Sales Policy Spells Prosperity” heralded the 1956 Quebec convention. Realizing that well-known people would attract needed publicity, the organizers solicited notable leaders from political and business circles to speak at the Quebec convention. Media attention was considered to be of the utmost importance by the Directors: they felt the Association was not receiving publicity commensurate with the $1200 spent on advertising CEDA activities. The Honourable Paul Beaulieu, Minister of Industry and Commerce, accepted an invitation to be the keynote speaker.
