Mike Whittington & Associates, Inc. has been at several PCMA SE events including the quarterly programs and the annual bowling event. I always find the PCMA SE events to offer great opportunities for exposure for my company. We will continue our support of future chapter programs in 2015 and beyond!!

The recent PCMA Southeast Chapter November Program was very successful. The Asheville CVB was a sponsor of the program and luncheon held at the Omni CNN Center. We were able to network before and after the program. Several new contacts were made while reconnecting with Atlanta area clients.  The food and staff at the Omni were top notch. The PCMA staff was very attentive and a delight to work with. They truly cared about our concerns and needs.  We would definitely consider a future PCMA sponsorship.

The Southeast Chapter of PCMA has provided Discover The Palm Beaches with excellent opportunities to showcase our Meetings and Convention value proposition, through their great events, educational programs, and strong network of event planners. The board remains committed to bringing great educational formats in fun networking events that attract some of the best planners in the Southeast. We consider this chapter as an excellent sales and marketing channel for our Destination Marketing Organization.

We had a wonderful time at the PCMA SE meeting that we sponsored. Everyone treated us very well and it was awesome to have the chance to get up in front of the whole group and explain exactly who we are and what we do, which can be hard with other advertising channels. I was especially happy with the reception why we got from the PCMA staff running the luncheon. They welcomed us warmly when we picked up our name tags and were there to help if we needed anything the entire time. This chapter clearly has the great culture and community that you don't always see in volunteer organizations.

One of the best Returns on Investment and Returns on Time I have ever experienced was the February 4th PCMA luncheon we helped sponsor with 140 planners and industry experts in attendance…I would suggest that anyone looking for an opportunity to sponsor an Atlanta-based meeting planner function, look no further…It is not very often in the business world where the reality of the goods purchased exceeds the promise, and this is the case with the PCMA luncheon.
