"As CAI Wisconsin Trade Show Committee Chairman, I am writing to you to tell you about the remarkable job Debra Pass has done for CAI Wisconsin and more specifically, our annual Conference and Trade Show. Thanks to Debra's tireless efforts and great ideas for this conference, we were able to go from a loss last year to a profit in 2010. A few examples of why that happened: Debra suggested to me that we set up subcommittees where each would focus on smaller tasks of improving attendance, increasing participation among vendors, and increasing sponsorships. She personally developed a marketing plan through various media. She even put together a specific plan for targeted mailings, emails, etc. She stayed in touch and worked closely with the hotel. Additionally, she went over many items with me that we could delete from the show without any negative consequences that saved a lot of money. Debra's enthusiasm was intoxicating and spread not only among those of us working the show, but attendees seemed to really appreciate the smiles upon their arrival. Never once did I see that look of panic or hurriedness or stress that is normally the constant companion to the person who is running the trade show. With Debra's help, we showed a profit, had to turn away some vendors due to lack of room, and most impressive, were able to grow the attendance by approximately 20% over last year. Debra's input, direction, guidance, communication, and obvious hard work and dedication to success made this trade show the great success that it was! It simply couldn't have been this good without her. Now we'll build upon this success story to design an even better show for Madison this fall and Milwaukee next year. Now, as a CAI Board Member, I'd like to add that, while we were very pleased with our prior TEAM administrator, Debra's involvement, help, support and suggestions at just the right times, and her strong attention to detail, have exceeded our expectations. I'm looking forward to our Trade Show Committee meeting where we'll recap the highs and lows of the show, celebrate our successes of that day, and focus on how we can improve to make the next one even better. And of course, this committee feedback meeting was... you guessed it, Debra's idea!" John P. Poehlmann, RS Principal, Reserve Advisors Community Associations Institute Wisconsin (CAI-WI) "I am in the incoming president for CAI Wisconsin. I completely agree with Johns comments on the trade show (above) and want you to be aware that those same attributes apply to Debra's work for our organization regarding all of her other management duties. We just wanted you to know how lucky we feel to be working with her."
