First off, I apologize to all the friends and family that I haven't been in touch with lately. It's sad, but the Advertising job has been taking a lot of my energy.
Then in the past 2 weeks I have been all consumed with Premier Planning Services. Rita has been working with NASP (National Association of Subrogation Professionals) for the past year and a half and our job was to coordinate their annual conference. This year we were in Colorado Springs at the Broadmoor, and it was an 8 day trip for us. This allowed us time to set up / break down for the conference and then coordinate during the 3 day conference as well.
It was so great to get back into Corporate Events again. I love this stuff! I wish I could be doing this full time. One day. :-)
A day after arriving back from Colorado, I headed out to Indianapolis to attend the annual Association of Bridal Consultants conference. It was great to connect with my colleagues from MN and WI - they are such a supportive group of Planners. The educational content of the conference was very good; however, I did feel more uncomfortable at this conference than others. The vast majority of wedding planners are married and are able to dedicate their entire time to their business. I don't feel the support from my Association as a part time wedding planner. It definitely is not by choice that I can only work part-time as a Planner.
I'm hoping that I can change some of these things as I go into 2010. Wish me luck!
