I met with Brian Sczesny. This was our first meeting as he has assumed the category manager role this year. We had  a lot in common as we both spent a lot of years in that market and know the same people.  I presented the cherry and apricot program and had some good discussion, especially on the possible start date. We also talked about a sales contest and or display contest. Maybe in the Chicago stores as their ad runs for two weeks. A "other" promotion might be better for that market.  He will get back to me.
