“I was introduced to SME as a college student. They foster an entry level of participation, to educate and familiarize High School and College students on the profession of Sales and Marketing. Attending all the functions SME offered opened a whole New World to me. A world of enthusiastic, caring, uplifting and positive professionals! After graduating from college and now a member of the business community, I was very enthusiastic about becoming a member of SME, where I can continue to grow professionally and enjoy the positive professional atmosphere I came to know and respect as a student” |

| “There have been many benefits that I have appreciated and valued over the years of my membership in SME. The biggest advantage is that it has complimented my personal philosophy of continued professional growth. SME has offered me by my attendance of the workshops, lunch meetings, seminars and roundtables, the opportunity to learn new ideas that have helped me solve business problems and have challenged my perspective of how to do things differently. Over the years SME has helped me to become a better resource to the organizations I have served.” |

| “We have found the educational and sales training available through our association with SME to be very valuable. As a small company, we do not have the resources of a large sales organization. This way our sales staff stays sharp and abreast of the latest trends, tips and techniques by attending SME events.” |

| “I joined SME over 30 years ago, because it was the premier organization of Sales and Marketing professionals available in the Twin Cities. I own and operate a business management development company working with many businesses. It was imperative to me that I affiliate with the association where most of my peers and clients were members. I became so passionate about SME and its mission of advancing business and professional development that I became a board member and officer. SME remains the premier, cutting edge organization to belong to if you are in any way involved with the sales and/or marketing efforts of your company!” |
