4 QUICKBOOKS CONNECT 2015 DEMOGRAPHCIS WHAT OUR 2015 SPONSORS HAD TO SAY: The show floor was just spectacular...not like other shows. I love the smalltown feel and the way all the booths meshed. Your info booth/registration support was on point. Show staff are never that wonderful...and yours was!!! Kudos. Good diversity of speakers and topics. Accountants track and exhibit hall being open on Monday was great. As a sponsor, the exhibition hall was fantastic. Well laid out, just the right amount of space to move around and great-looking booths. As a vendor, I liked that all of the other vendors were set up exactly the same way. This leveled the playing field. Closing the exhibit hall during speeches was a huge plus. We got to actually attend an event instead of just always standing at our booth. This was a very well-organized event. 31 % 8 % 61 % Accounting Professional Developer Small Business 4
