Dear Colleagues:
We are serving as co-chairs of the Personal Selling and Sales Management track for the upcoming 2021 Academy of Marketing Science Annual Conference to be held virtually June 2-4. On behalf of AMS, we are seeking your expertise, input and assistance, not only in developing this conference track, but also in enhancing its overall quality. We encourage your assistance in several areas:
1. Submit a manuscript or structured abstract (Deadline – Nov. 15, 2020).
If your manuscript (or structured abstract, if you prefer not to submit a full paper) is accepted, you may elect to have it appear in the proceedings as a complete paper or as an abstract. By choosing the latter, you can receive the benefits of conference presentation and subsequently submit the work for journal consideration. For additional details: .
2. Serve as reviewer.
Your expertise and understanding of the topics included in this track would add greatly to the quality of the paper selection process. We are targeting no more than two papers/abstracts for each reviewer, so your time commitment will be minimized. Reviewers will receive papers around Nov. 20, 2020, and will be required to submit reviews via EasyChair by Dec. 20, 2020.
3. Serve as a discussant or session chair.
To aid in making the Personal Selling and Sales Management track a success, we will need several people to serve as discussants or session chairs. We know you (yes you!) would do an outstanding job.
I hope you will join us in participating in the conference in one or more of these capacities. Please respond by e-mailing us at corinne.novell@pepperdine.edu and wbolander@fsu.edu to indicate the capacity in which you are willing to participate.
Together we can make the AMS Annual Conference a success!
Sincerely,
Corinne Novell and Willy Bolander
