  3. Databases and big lessons learned • There are lots of others who will share d/bs • Trucking companies are dropping like flies • Access (MS) is not that easy • If you are not a database expert, learn about Access de-dupe and other features before you start bringing in big d/bs from others • Don’t ever save changes to table layout unless you add or delete a whole new column

  4. Start planning-- especially, outreach-- six months out rather than three Promote early, using planned topics, rather than actual speaker names Reach out to MPOs regionally, not just locally Be sure your organization is able to accept registrations and fees efficiently Pursue trucking company participation through ATA, other trade orgs Reach out to local delivery companies -- e.g. FedEx, Coke, UPS -- get help on this from vendors Other lessons learned
