The winter edition of XBIZ Retreat, presented by Satisfyer, is set for Jan. 10-14, 2024.
The premier all-inclusive B2B event for the adult retail industry will once again offer its signature schedule of curated meetings and exclusive networking socials, along with a VIP experience that includes cocktail mixers, gourmet dinners and evening entertainment.
Participants in the flagship January edition also get access to a multitude of festivities surrounding “XBIZ week,” including the annual XBIZ Honors ceremony. On the final, fifth day of the event, XBIZ Retreat participants will be treated to one final day of meetings and a farewell brunch.
Playtime Boutiques’ Jessica DellaMonica shared that she always leaves XBIZ Retreat feeling more business-savvy. “I get such great advice, not only from my fellow buyers, but from the reps too,” she said. “I think that the more we learn, and the more amazing brands we bring in, the more business grows and succeeds.”
Adventure Industries’ Michael Lerner praised the effectiveness of XBIZ Retreat’s signature one-on-one meetings.
“You get face time with everybody that you need to meet with and you don’t have the hecticness of being in a booth where other people are standing around listening in,” he said. “You get more of a private, intimate environment to be able to conduct business, so it’s very helpful.”
Holly Berejikian of Sexy Suz Couples Boutique attended this year’s January edition for the first time.
“It was, by far, one of the most productive shows I’ve attended,” she said. “I had time to make clear connections, form relationships, and even repair a few.”
Megan Swartz of Janra sees XBIZ Retreat as the most valuable show to attend.
“It allows for a different vibe when making purchasing decisions where you feel less pressure and get more account attention,” she noted.
Carolyn Eagle of Betty’s Toy Box praised the event’s curated mix of participants and networking opportunities.
“I never fail to leave XBIZ Retreat with my head full of new ideas, new products and new friendships,” she said.
Nalpac’s Phoebe Grott added, “XBIZ Retreat introduced Nalpac to new brands entering the marketplace and provided a great format to touch base with our current suppliers.”
For East Coast News Sales Rep Allie Weir, XBIZ Retreat’s intimate setting stood out the most.
“I felt like we were able to interact more effectively with customers,” she said. “The extracurricular events helped to create a fun environment, which made it easier to connect.”
Danielle Seerley, director of sales for Thank Me Now, enthused, “XBIZ Retreat provides such a high-quality selection of buyers, great relationship-building opportunities and an amazing environment.”
