field team and corporate offices to downtown Toronto for the
company's 3rd annual National Conference. (see

Day 1 kicked off with high energy around a very slick and
entertaining James Bond theme that brought alive easyhome's
"Mission g2G" (good 2 GREAT)" message, the theme of this two day
event.
With employees and executives as special agents, creative
video production placed members of the executive team in
familiar 007 movie scenes. "We used the James Bond Theme to send
a strong message that 2004 was a very good year but the
challenge is now to make easyhome GREAT," said Brent Atkinson,
Marketing Manager for easyhome.
Executives shared their vision for the future & each
attendees role in achieving that goal . David Ingram (President
& CEO) , Dave Maries (Vice President, Marketing &
Merchandising), Bill Johnson (Executive Vice President & Chief
Financial Officer), Randy Robertson (Senior Vice President,
Operations), and Rick Atkinson (Vice President, Development)
convinced the audience to share that vision.
The opening session was followed by the vendor show featuring
displays of easyhome's 2005 product lineup. "This is a great
opportunity for our store managers to see our complete 2005
product selection and interact with our vendor partners" quoted
Dave Maries, Vice President, Marketing & Merchandising.

late afternoon ended with a team event built around enhancing
teamwork, strategy, and planning. The event concluded at 'club
easy' were it was time to relax, have fun, and win cash. A good
time was had by all.
