Why You Need to Attend

In today’s dynamic fuel purchasing landscape, OPIS’ Winning Fuel Buying Strategies will provide you with the knowledge to master the basics of fuel buying. This 3-day program will help you discover how to buy smarter, negotiate better, control costs, increase profits and grow your business.

 

 

Dear Colleague,

 

Unprecedented volatility continues to plague fuel buyers and wreak havoc on purchasing strategies throughout the industry. No matter where you are on the fuel chain, properly managing your fuel purchasing is a critical component in preparing yourself for the not-so-predictable future.

 

Not knowing how to effectively buy fuel in this ever-changing market can cost you thousands of dollars, or even worse, put you out of business. Don’t become a statistic - if there was ever a time to better understand how to buy fuel, it’s now!

 

The fuel purchasing world has changed and you need to change with it. That’s why your attendance is critical at the next OPIS Winning Fuel Buying Strategies course, November 18-20, 2009 at the Millennium Knickerbocker Hotel in Chicago, IL.

 

Here are five compelling reasons to sign up now…

 

Volatility – It’s changing the way rack barrels are priced and how fuel is sold at wholesale. Learn how to buy smarter under any market conditions.

 

Profitability – Your competition may be more knowledgeable than you, which can give them the edge in this era of increasingly shrinking margins. You’ll learn how to beat the competition and make your business more profitable.

 

Negotiating – Possibly the most important thing you will ever do as a buyer of petroleum products. I’ll help you enhance your negotiating and contract writing skills to ensure you secure the best deal possible.

 

Networking – Meet fuel buyers and sellers from all regions of the U.S. and form relationships that you can leverage for years to come.

 

No Risk – If you don’t come away with practical ideas that will add thousands of dollars to your bottom line, I will refund your entire registration fee, no questions asked!

 

In my 28 years with OPIS, I’ve never seen market volatility like this. Whether you are completely new to the industry, or just want to stay on the cutting edge of this ever-changing fuels landscape, OPIS Winning Fuel Buying Strategies is for you.

 

See you in Chicago!

 

Sincerely,

Scott H. Berhang
