| “I really enjoyed being a Buddy, as I know a lot of people and felt I was able to connect my buddy with some great contacts. I know my Buddy enjoyed the Conference and really appreciated me sticking with him and introducing him to so many people…he sent me a cookie bouquet after with a very nice thank you note. It was quite a surprise and a very nice gesture.” -Annual Conference 06 Buddy |
