“Pat is an amazing business woman and coach. I had the opportunity to experience her “Maximize Your Conference” program in preparation for a conference I attended in July. She has an impressive structure and highly engaging speaking style. I learned many strategies to go in with an action plan, and left with goals to ensure I made the most out of my investment. In 16 years of my career I’ve worked with several companies active in trade shows and conferences. I’ve never seen preparation of the caliber Pat provides. I can’t even begin to express the amount of financial savings, additional pipeline and accelerated ROI any corporation will achieve by experiencing Pat’s “Maximize Your Conference” program. I highly recommend her program to anyone whether they attend one event a year or several.”
