Sales Kickoff

During the event, business casual attire is appropriate. The awards banquet dinner on January 21 has a slightly fancier dress code which means a jacket/button-up shirt for men (tie not required) and a dress, skirt, or dressy slacks for women. Plan to bring a sweater/jacket/coat to the air-conditioned meeting rooms.

Bring your laptop with a charger to take notes and follow along with the training sessions. Don’t forget your Chapstick and lotion to combat the Utah dry and cold air.

Early Check-In: Check-in is at 3:00 p.m. Early check-in is granted by the front desk based on availability. Guests can check in as soon as a room is ready with no additional charge. If you arrive early and a room is not ready, you can check your luggage and wait to be notified when your room is ready.
Late Check-Out: Checkout is at 11 a.m. Late check-out is based on availability for the day of your departure. Check with the front desk on the morning of your departure. If your check-out is Thursday, January 22, you are welcome to store your luggage with the front desk or in our meeting space.

You are responsible for your own ground transportation to and from the event. We recommend using a rideshare service (Uber/Lyft) to and from the airport. You will not need to rent a vehicle. For details on personal car mileage reimbursement, please review the Expense Report Instructions.

The Marriott has onsite parking available for overnight guests and visitors. Request overnight parking at the front desk when you check in and use your room key to enter/exit the parking garage. Don’t forget to use your room key to exit a final time after checking out. If you are not staying overnight, we will have a full-day parking voucher at the event registration table. You will need a parking pass each time you enter/exit, so grab what you need and return what you don’t use.

There is an event Slack channel called #sales-kickoff-2026 which will be used for any announcements, reminders, and helpful links. Explore the Slack channel canvas and bookmarks located at the top of the channel.

Please notify your manager and amanda.horton@cruciallearning.com as soon as you know you will no longer be attending. You may be responsible for canceling your own flight and hotel if applicable.

We encourage anyone feeling sick to stay home. If you have had any symptoms that are concerning, or you feel like you are contagious, please seek the guidance of a medical professional and get tested to assure you are safe to be in proximity of others. We will have face masks, hand sanitizer, and individual pain reliever packets onsite for attendees.
