"After a year and a half of not having attended a major tradeshow, this week we were back in Indianapolis for the Do It Best fall show event. Sam's pre-show preparation, booth set up & amenities as well as post show follow up were exemplary and a true example of how we all should approach our job responsibilities. Thank you Sam for making what can be a stressful time an easy and enjoyable experience." - Fred Calvo, Sales Manager at ECI Software Solutions

"As I'm getting ready to attend an industry tradeshow, it struck me how organized and adaptable Sam is. In one day, she took a last-minute conceptual idea to enhance our booth and made it a reality. She made sure we have all of the proper tools to be able to make this show a success and all of the tracking numbers, contact information, and other information we need to help things go smoothly. I've worked in corporate event planning in the past and fully understand how many moving parts there are behind the scenes. Sam juggles it all and makes it look easy! She's a huge asset to ECI." - Heidi Schroeder, Sales Manager at ECI Software Solutions
