"You did a phenomenal job of bringing customers through the doors, and I just want to say Thank You! This was an absolute gang-buster of a show, and to pull this off as a first time promoter speaks volumes about the time and effort that went into the planning and preparation for the show. The hotel was fabulous! The food divine. The staff courteous and helpful. Fabulous job, hope to see you next year! [Please say there's going to be a next year!]"

"We had wanted to Thank everyone for the comfortable feeling at the Sonoma Show. We had an excellent show and thank everyone."
Annette & Vi, Applegate Lapidary
"The 2005 Sonoma show was not only set in a beautiful area but the ad campaign to get the word out was phenomenal. It brought in more people than I ever expected and the buyers came from near and far, very far. The show organizers were there for everything we needed, including giving us breaks if we didn't have anyone with us. The staff at the hotel where the show was held pampered us with great detail. I never had a door open more for me than at the Lodge at Sonoma. I would rate this a first class show and if it can be this good in it's first year then I can't wait for the future. I will return again and again."
Bindy Lambell, The Mad Beader

Lewis Wilson, Crystal Myths
"You guys worked real hard to make this show the "talk of the town" for days to come and I am sure those who did not visit, wished they did. I wanted to thank you and Soft Flex for inviting me to be part of the beginning of hopefully an annual event. I can see great things are ahead for this show!"
Lisa Kan, Lisa Kan Designs
