2009 National Gift Basket Convention

We had an outstanding time. Our minds are still spinning with so much education. What a creative bunch of instructors! See you at this year’s convention. -Jan

What a weekend! I believe as a vendor people got a lot from the event! I loved how the theme was carried out through-out the classes and the trade show. We meet so many wonderful people and glad we were there. See you soon. -Matthew

You did good! I will say I enjoyed myself, learned some new things, and made a lot of new contacts. The instructors were great and covered different aspects that I needed to give me a shot in the arm before the holidays. It’s always good to take a class with an instructor live. I hope you offer it again next year I will return! -Sue

I just wanted to say thank you tom & Pam for putting on the Basket Convention 2009. I had such a good time and I feel like I came away with a lot of new knowledge under my belt. I was in a kind of FUNK for the past month or so and this is what I needed to help get me focused again. Also I want to tell you that your family/staff are so very helpful. They also brought a lot to the event. I also met so many nice people that I am sure we will keep in touch as friends. I look forward to next year’s event see you there! -Diana

I took Friday off work and was sure glad I did to attend! I wish I would have taken the entire 3 days and will promise to do so next year! I learned so much and made so many great deals at the convention. -Thanks Barb

Canton Ohio was a great choice and affordable! I will be back again next year! -Joe

Thanks Tom & Pam for getting me started in my new endeavor! Pam and Mary Ann were great speakers! You Motivate! -Maria

The size of the convention was great. I had an opportunity to meet other professionals in our field! -Thanks Deb

Everyone was fantastic, really enjoyed myself and learned a lot. Keep up the great work and see you next year. -Ginny

The seminars were very informative and certainly worth my time. You couldn’t have picked better speakers with more experience. -Thanks Bob

I will come back every year as long as Tom & Pam are the organizers. Great workbook/notebook and I loved of great ideas to help me grow my business. -Pat
