The focus of this 4 day event was Customer Service and Satisfaction; and common and alternative uses of Social Media as a component of Marketing and Branding campaigns. Thru working with our Event Planning practice, we were able to offer a 'Turn Key' approach where we orchistrated venue planning, hotel reservations, conference room facilities, meals, and transportation to all venues ... including group airport pick-up.
