and represent value for customers. To leverage this poten- tial revenue, companies must be prepared. When it comes to hazmat packaging, a more knowl- edgeable salesperson is a more effective salesperson. The ability to meet customer inquiries during a sales call can improve turn-around time and add value to customer conversations. Given the structure of US Hazardous Mate- rial Regulations (HMR), sales professionals must speak in a manner that is precise and consistent with their role in the regulatory system and their company’s policies. This webinar will help salespeople gather relevant information and manage crucial communication. Box converters often print regulated Marks and Labels on behalf of their customers. Hazmat: Marking & Labelling explains the requirements of 49 CFR Subparts D (Marking) and E (Labelling) of Part 172 as they apply to boxmakers. Hazmat: Box Fabrication Functions presents an analy- sis of the requirements of the HMR with respect to “pack- aging manufacturers” as defined in the regulations, and any action a boxmaker performs on behalf of their “pack- aging manufacturer” customers. Registration for the three-part webinar series is $750 for members, and Hazmat Awareness for Salespeople is $250. These webinars are part of the All Access Pass. Pass holders can use their promo code to register at no additional cost. Register at www.AICCbox.org/Calendar .
