Granite 101 Training Seminar

Ston’Art Galleria proudly announces that on January 4th we had a fresh start to the New Year by hosting 23 designers and sales associates to GranTops Granite 101 Training Seminar, giving out by our Senior Stone Designer, Dirci Borelli Marquart. The classes were divided in morning and afternoon sessions.  All the participants had “hands-on” training, by completing training with Q&A session and visiting the production shop in full action. 

Bottom line?  Best prepared and confident designers and sales associates are out there, to face a new year, ready to reap the results of big natural stone sales in 2007!  Be yourself a winner as well.  Prepare yourself for the best!  Participate in our next Granite 101 Training Seminar on February 8th , 2007.  For more information email carina@grantops.com.
