This year, BOMA International + Buildings magazine was nice enough to locate the Every Building Conference & Expo in MDG’s own backyard. To show our appreciation, we “ordered up” our best San Diego weather (72 degrees and sunshine) to greet the commercial real estate professionals who pored in from across the country and around the world. Despite challenging market conditions, the event saw its second straight year of growth (in its second straight year of working with MDG), with a 16 percent increase in overall attendance. Lisa Prats, CAE, Vice President of Marketing & Communications, showered us with praise saying “MDG is the best event marketing firm with whom I have had the pleasure of working in my 30+ year career in association management. They really take the time to understand your industry and your audiences to create marketing pieces and to write effective copy that gets results. In a nutshell, they are truly the best at what they do. I can’t see us ever using another marketing firm.” We are still blushing — although, we’re also hard at work marketing next year’s event in Orlando.
