Absolutely Wonderful

Our GMI Project Manager was absolutely wonderful. Our POA went flawless from the beginning to the end. I've been setting up POAs and Meetings for a long time and this was probably the best in regards to organization, follow through and help!

Responsive

I wanted to recognize our Project Manager and her staff for the great job they do helping the MW Area run very effective meetings. Not only does she represent your company well she also represents us in a very positive fashion. Everyone is very responsive to our needs, they are always upbeat and happy (even though their day starts and ends after ours), and will respond to any request made of them the same way, "Of course I can do that, let me take care of it right now." Though this email should have been sent years ago, as I have always been impressed with her and the other team members, I didn't want another meeting to go by without letting you know how I and the other managers felt.

Significant Value

I want to let you know how much I appreciated the assistance from your Meeting Planning team last week with our POA Meeting in New Orleans. The Meeting Planner that I worked with throughout the planning process, as well as onsite during the meeting, was very helpful and extremely efficient with all aspects of the meeting. I have received some of the most positive feedback I ever have from my District Managers and Sales Representatives about this meeting, and I know that at least part of the reason for that is that all the logistics flowed smoothly. Your team was obviously were responsible for that, and I appreciated all they did to ensure we were not burdened with logistical concerns as we conducted our meeting.

I just wanted to take a minute to let you know that your team provided significant value to us last week and that it was appreciated.

Best Ever

Last week's Launch Meeting exceeded all our expectations. From preplanning to onsite execution, your dedication was clearly evident. We have heard from many attendees that the meeting was one of the best they ever attended. This is due in large part to your attention to detail and your extremely professional onsite staff.

We are so grateful for the many hours you spent planning and the many hours the onsite staff worked executing. It is our pleasure to work with the GMI team!

GMI is a True Partner

Here we are on the back side of another meeting cycle. It is because of you and your team that we are able to continue to experience such great success at our meetings. I can’t say enough about Stacey or Jnge. Both are true partners I depend on and enjoy working with. As well as everyone else on the teams. It was great to see some faces I hadn’t seen the last couple of meetings. Those people are the reason I rest a little easier at these meetings, because through the many, many meetings over the years your folks have become extended family to our organization. And I know they are doing as much (if not more) to make sure everything looks smooth as glass to our attendees. True partners!

Please thank everyone on both the NMM and NSM teams for me.
Kind Regards

Fabulous Team

Just a note to let you know what a great success this launch was.

Your team was responsible for ensuring we had what we needed when we needed it, and we couldn't have had a better outcome! As you know, there were several challenges that the hotel presented, and with expert handling by your team, we were able to overcome them. This was a very high-touch, detail-oriented meeting that had many moving parts, and things changed from moment to moment. Your staff was extremely professional, and we received nothing but positive comments about their "can do" attitude and execution. None of the issues we faced were transparent to the attendees or the executive team which is what it should be about. The executive team, and more importantly, our clients, had nothing but praise for the look and feel of the meeting, and your staff. All in all, a fabulous team with whom I would have no hesitation in working with again!
