From the President

Hi, I’m Joan Buck, CMP, CMM, President and founder of eMeetingExperts , Your Partner in Planning™ . Unlike competitive meeting planning companies, our goal is to make your job easier through offering two great tools…ePlanner™ the comprehensive corporate meeting planning software product and/or professional meeting planning services. You may have noticed our tag line "The New Intelligence in Meeting Planning™", which begs the question "how so?" By offering unsurpassed professional corporate meeting management services and a software product designed by meeting planners for meeting planners. Allow me introduce you to ePlanner™ . ePlanner™ uses the Internet, Microsoft® .Net, based leading edge technology. By doing so, we are able to bring to you an on-line meeting planning resource that will save time and make your bottom line more profitable through its use. By using the .Net technology, you benefit from easy access to your event folders and save disc storage space on your server and desktop computers. You gain the safety net of our redundant computer system so you can rest assured that you will not lose valuable data and time. Your staff and vendors can have access to your event folders, however you have control over their rights of use. Team members or clients who need up-to-date status reports on the progress of their meeting can view the reports, even while you’re on vacation! Admit it…computers can become inoperable at any given time, usually the worst time. If your entire meeting database is loaded on your laptop for use while on-site and that laptop goes down, you're in serious trouble. If you're using ePlanner™ and that same laptop becomes inoperable you can literally beg, borrow or rent any computer with Internet access and you're back on your feet. No lost time. No lost data. ePlanner™ is priced in a manner to allow independent planners and small companies to resell their services at a profit. It is also priced to allow larger companies and corporations to benefit from the use of ePlanner™ by their in-house planning staff by increasing productivity through fewer man-hours dedicated to each individual meeting or event. ePlanner™ is designed to be an easy-to-use tool for experienced planners, as well as those new to the industry. We’ve created the product to allow you to choose the level of complexity of your use. The eMeetingExperts staff is able to offer customized features of ePlanner™ at your request. Simply complete a brief needs assessment with your eMeetingExperts representative and we will promptly provide a quote to you for your customization. Please visit the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page of our site. As Albert Einstein said, "The only source of knowledge is experience." Let our meeting planning experience work for you. Thank you, Joan M. Buck, CMP, CMM President
