Spokane Home Builders Association
"E&M Consulting was a great partner in the production of our Fall Festival of Homes. We had recently made a staffing change and in spite of a compressed timeframe, they were still able to double the builder participation and profitability of the event - increasing the gross revenue by $86,000. We utilized the additional funds to do both a newspaper tab, as well as a full color coffee table publication, doubling our marketing/media efforts for this event. We were amazed at how successful E&M was at involving members who had not participated in Association events for years. Their persistent but professional sales approach was well received by our members. After this experience, we contracted with them to support our Premier Home Improvement Show (they sold a record 153 booths in 3 days) and will have them back for next year's Fall Festival of Homes. I would highly recommend E&M Consulting if your association is looking for outstanding results from your events or publications."

"I would strongly recommend E&M Consulting for an AIA directory! They published AIA Ohio’s after we were left mid-stream by our previous publishers abrupt bankruptcy. They were able to help me get a directory out quickly and the quality is wonderful. In addition, they created an online version that we posted to the AIA Ohio Locate A Member page. We were thrilled with it! You can see it here. The search function is just what the AIA Ohio board was looking for."

"First and foremost, let me say how impressed our boards of directors, the ORA staff and I were when we saw the latest copy of à la Carte. The commitment and quality provided to the ORA by E&M on this project has been stellar, and everyone commented on how nice the layout was and how robust the offering would be for our members. One of the comments that struck me was “this team obviously knows what its doing and who their market is.” And, I simply couldn’t agree more. I look forward to working with you on our membership directory. I would highly recommend E&M to other associations."
