Client Appreciation

"It was a pleasure working with you and your team to host the 70th Annual Conference of the Southeastern Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies. Your team was instrumental in guiding our agency through the planning process. Each team member demonstrated tremendous skill and conducted business in a professional manner. Delaney Meeting & Event Management stayed one step ahead of the planning process and met each and every deadline. I was more than impressed with your team's ability to plan  a conference of this magnitude from 1600 miles away. Every detail was considered and every issue was addressed efficiently and confidently. Your team was guiding us every step of the way and remained front and center until the very end of the conference. I look forward to working with Delaney Meeting & Event Management in the future and recommend your team to manage conferences and events of any size."

"I wanted to take a moment and sincerely thank you and your amazing team for converting your business model to support virtual conferences in the COVID environment. Trying to maintain any sense of continuity and comfort through such upheaval is difficult. Having a long time trusted partner provide competent world class transitional opportunities has set us up for continued success. This event is yet another in the growing line of successful virtual conferences that are essential to the sustainability of our industry.
 
Particular to the R3 Workgroup, Kristin Dwyer has been amazing. Her professionalism and patience led to achieving an impactful meeting with and the largest attendance for an R3 Workgroup that we have ever seen."

"​If you are planning a conference or event, Marie is the person you want to hire! She's managed our Better Buildings by Design conference for years and just transitioned us to a virtual conference for 2021. The conference went smoothly with great attendance and high participant satisfaction. Marie made everything easy for us and ensured we met core deadlines and covered all the fine details. I cannot wait to work with her on future events. Thank you, Marie!"

We did it! Another successful conference! Thanks, in a huge part, to you! We, The NEARC Board, are in awe of you and your expertise, not to mention how you manage it all with a smile! Your help from the very beginning (practically a year ago) – keeping us on track, meeting deadlines, guiding the host committee – to all of the onsite work you do – registration, food, dealing with issues (wifi…ugh!) – is appreciated by all of us.

You’ve been with us for so many years, you are a part of our NEARC family. You may not understand all of our nerdy GIS speak, but you fit right in and we are so thankful you are with us.

Pam Brangan, Chair
NEARC Board of Directors

"You and your team did an outstanding job making the Annual celebration so spectacular - through all the digging, sorting, problem-solving, and filling-in-the-blanks, you make it all come together into one very memorable Burlington weekend. Not to mention the sunshine - we knew you were good, but that's really good. Our sincerest gratitude for taking on this very special project with such enthusiasm, energy and keen attention to detail. We are lucky to have such a strong partner in the team at Delaney! Thanks Again!"

"Thanks again for such a spectacular Stowe Weekend of Hope. I can't even imagine what goes into planning such an event, but I know one thing - you make it look easy. Attention to detail is what you specialize in and don't think it goes unnoticed!

I want to personally thank your wonderful staff who did a superb job of orchestrating the smallest of details and who always had a ready smile. As a speaker, I've had the opportunity to attend literally hundreds of events, but none have compared to the seamless flow of events and availability of staff that you provide."

"What can I say to let you know how much we appreciate your work with us.  You addressed every single vendor issue with poise and graciousness.  All I heard throughout the four days is the great support from Karen Forbes.  Vendors remarked that no question was too small and you followed up with emails and phone calls.  

Vendors knew that you wanted them to be successful, and your style demonstrates your incredible people skills.  You want to get it right! The best decision we made is to have Delaney Management as part of the team, and we are so glad you are the one to work with us."
