Beatriz, Shawna and Tracy
working onsite at IDA

Dana Zita, owner of aNd Logsitix was nominated for the 2003 Rothman Canadian Woman Entrepreneur of the Year award!!!
Shawna has been utilizing her excellent French skills assisting the French-speaking delegates for the Shoppers Drug Mart Halifax Conference.
Beatriz and Amy have been working hard on the silent, live and super silent auction to take place at the JDRF Gala in November
Tracy visited Prince Edward Island and Dana visited Jamaica on Familiarization trips and discovered a whole new world of meeting and incentive facilities
A Presidential themed dinner was the highlight of the NEXTEL 2003 South Region Public Sector summit. A few stressful moments during set-up as the winds just weren't getting along very well with the centrepieces. The team was set to work trying methods such as sand, duct tape and a hand saw. Success was finally achieved when we got the fishing line out. Every onsite kit should have some!
The annual IDA program was packed with compelling speakers who entertained and influenced the audience with their knowledge and experience. With the assistance of Beatriz, speakers arrived in New Brunswick in anticipation for another great event. Special audio visual requirements, room set up, presentation review and accommodation were in place for the arrival of the speakers which ensured a happy and stress free experience for our industry specialists.
Saman Design have again outdone themselves with some wonderful signage for our NEXTEL events in the US.

Top Tip
When you have the chance to capture an e-mail address - DO IT! E-mail is a highly valuable marketing tool that works best when you build an in-house list. Have folks sign up for an e-mail newsletter. As you collect business cards, ask if you may e-mail information. Take every opportunity you can to collect an address.



Online Registration - The Benefits !!

Over 95% of our clients request and use our online registration method. We have continuously shown our clients how beneficial online registration is in terms of time, money and convenience. Once they use online registration, they never go back to the old days of faxes and over the phone registrations!

1. Oftentimes, clients need to limit the number of attendees to an event. With the old manual method, there was no easy way to track this. With online registration, you can set limits to events, seminars, and workshops. Once you have reached the limit, a notification will advise potential registrants that registration is full.

2. Online registration allows the client an option to login to the database to view any registration, the minute they happen!

3. With online registration systems, all the information is held in one central database that can be accessed by authorized organizers. Any changes or updates to the system are done automatically and everyone sees the same information.

4. Online registration is fast and easy. It saves time from inputting manually, which means we can turn around confirmation letters to participants quickly.
