👍 Testimonial Tuesday! One of the many benefits of membership is that our members always try to do business with other members and our sponsors.

📖 Here is a great story from Lauren Singer Perry with Lamont Associates: "I had a brand new client who was holding her first conference ask if I had any recommendations for a videographer to capture the event. I immediately thought of our friend Burt Holland with Encyclomedia, who has supported our chapter for the past several years and has made us look better than we should. The funny thing is, when I stopped in to check on how the meeting was going, the client shared that she and Burt already knew each other and lived in the same neighborhood! Hospitality is such a small world and I love all of the unexpected connections.Members doing business with Sponsors – one of the many reasons I love being a part of SITE Southeast!"
