If you’ve ever wondered if you should attend the Chicago Seminars, stop wondering and sign up next time! I really did enjoy my weekend. It was great fun to meet so many interesting and genuinely nice people who share similar interests in travel. Some of the information is a refresher for me, but as always, I came away with some new knowledge. Not only are the attendees and organizers a well-informed and nice bunch of people, they are also very generous, donating over $10,000 dollars to great charities like Wounded Warrior Project, Captain Jason Dahl Fund, and Airline Ambassadors International.
The 2012 seminars are monumental for another reason….. my public speaking debut. 🙂 The Cruising Crowd with Marshall Jackson was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed interacting with the attendees…got lots of great questions, and lots of good participation from the audience….which happened to contain some very experienced cruisers. Lots of good information was shared, and like all of the seminars, I managed to learn something! It was a great experience for me, and having done the session, I’m now better informed about the kind of information people are looking for and will leverage that for next time. Yes, I said next time. 🙂 The Cruising Crowd 201 is under development!
I will be preparing a post this week that will contain my PowerPoint presentation as well as some context and notes from the session. Look for my piece on my recent visit with Delta Air Lines as well.
Marshall, thanks so much for touching a previously untapped topic in Chicago and as we discussed please plan on presenting a cruising topic again next year .
Thanks again
Rick
Jim and I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and seminar. We WILL be back next year!
Thank you!
Great weekend of travel tips, miles/points earning and burning and networking. Nice to meet you, MJ! Looking forward to checking out your Cruising PP show.
It was a great time! Nice meeting you as well.
I didn’t get to attend your session but the seminar was my first. I live an hour from Elk Grove and didn’t attend last year. I attended this year and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I will be attending each year going forward.
Glad you enjoyed the weekend. See you next year!
