Here are some comments from those who have attended prior events:
The conference really got the "brain juices" flowing and rejuvenated our enthusiasm for our business. It was great to meet the people I've dealt with via the phone & net. We came back with increased knowledge & ideas for many aspects of our business. Plus we got some hands on experiences with some new products that have already paid off in terms of increasing that bottom line. - Mike & Mary Peshman Memories Preserved
Thank you Custom Display for putting on such an awesome event!! This is just what our industry needed. I can't believe all of the ideas and business growth information I obtained by attending the FPS! My business has progressed quickly because of the short cuts, ideas, info & different preservation techniques learned. By attending this event I feel that my business has progressed years by not having to learn all of these things from trial and error on my own. I really believe every floral preservation business out there would really benefit from this Symposium and I hope that everyone will think about attending. So much great information, so little time!! -Diane Bowley Memories Bi-Design
