Speaker’s Resources:
Speakers are encouraged to sell any of their own resources including books, CDs, DVDs or other products. However, the resources of others are not to be displayed or sold.
Resource Packaging:
Because of the large number of attendees who might be trying to purchase resources in the limited time frame during the breaks, we request the following pricing guidelines:
- The minimum price of any product offered for sale at the table be $20.
- If you have items that would normally sell for less than $20, create a “package deal” and shrink wrap, tie, or box the products together.
- Product should be rounded off in dollar amounts only – no cents.
Resource Shipping Information:
If you are shipping your resources in advance of the Increase Event, please ship to the following address and label boxes accordingly. Please send tracking numbers and anticipated arrival date to kari@increase.org.

Resource Table Setup Time:
Resource tables can be set up on Thursday afternoon, October 30 for sales on Friday and Saturday. Speaker’s names will be on the table assigned to them in the Crystal Ballroom Foyer.
Table Sales Times:
Resource tables are not to be opened in the mornings before the sessions begin. Tables may be open during the mid-morning breaks and when sessions conclude at 1:00pm on Friday and Saturday. When the twenty-minute mid-morning break has ended, resource tables are to be immediately covered and closed until the teaching sessions have ended at 1:00 p.m.
Non-Solicitation Policy:
The purpose of offering resources is to provide material for the attendees to experience personal and spiritual growth following the event. Ministry donation solicitations, partnership information, project brochures and/or mailing list forms/cards are not permitted at the resource tables. In addition, the offering of “free samples or products” requiring the submission of one’s email and/or contact information is prohibited.
Political Statement Policy:
Because the attendees come from diverse backgrounds, we try to maintain a politically neutral environment. We ask that speakers respect the possible viewpoint differences of others and refrain from politically related statements, comments, or jokes.
Other Special Functions:
You are invited as our guest to attend the other functions that take place during the Event (i.e. optional Q&A lunches). However, if you plan to attend a function, especially one where food will be served, we do need you to confirm your reservation in advance by emailing events@increase.org.
Audio/Visual Information:
You are welcome to use media – Power Point, videos, etc. during your speaking session(s) in the ballroom. However, do not imbed any videos directly into your Power Point presentation as they may not play correctly. Keep them as two separate files.
Your media must be received at least 24 hours prior to your speaking time. It can be emailed to ballroom@increase.org with a cc to kari@increase.org or delivered to the tech table/your speaker liaison on a flash drive labeled with your name.
Promotional video clips and handouts are normally not permitted. If you seek an exception to this rule, please arrange to have the clip forwarded to events@increase.org at least 24 hours before your session and/or a copy of the handout given to your speaker liaison for review.
