What Our Clients are Saying . . .
Association Management
Buzogany Associates worked with the CLLA for two and half years. During that time Buzogany helped professionalize our sales effort by creating an online media kit; stabilizing our pricing for sponsorship, exhibition and advertising; bundling opportunities for clients who wanted multi-platform exposure; creating and selling our first online sponsorship and consulting on strategic revenue development. Buzogany Associates' work provided us with a much stronger and more effective approach to our non-dues revenue efforts. I can recommend them for any association looking to enhance its sponsorship and exhibition strategy and increase revenue.
Oliver Yandle
Executive Director
Commercial Law League of America
I personally thought that your class on "How Associations Work" was nothing short of excellent and I appreciated the candor that you provided. It was definitely valuable to me and gave me some good material that I have shared with others in my organization. Thank you; thank you; thank you!
ASGE outsourced a variety of projects to you over the past year. From developing business plans, to facilitating Board meetings, to developing a complex annual plan, to producing our newsletter and handling all of our public relations functions, your firm has become an increasingly important part of the ASGE strategy for moving our association and the GI profession forward. They are now, and will continue to be an integral part of the ASGE team.

I wanted to express my gratitude for the great job Buz did in achieving member renewals for the Association Forum of Chicagoland. You exceeded our expectations tenfold! I stand ready to serve as very positive reference for you at any time.

Marketing/Chapter Relations
Buzogany Associates has been a valuable partner to ICMAD. Buz has increased interest in our annual advertising book, as well as our revenue. He has helped us identify markets and better evaluate the purpose of the project. I look forward to a long relationship with Buzogany Associates.
Marilyn Mages
Marketing/Communication Coordinator ICMAD
Independent Cosmetic Manufacturers & Distributors
We truly appreciate the hard work that Buzogany Associates put into the Showcase Magazine to help us reach our goals. With limited previous exposure, Buz and his staff were able to take the target list and hit the ground running. Thank you for helping us exceed our expectations!
Penni Jones
ICMAD Executive Director
Our members are home inspectors, not marketing pros, so we (ASHI National) wanted to help them in every way possible to invest their money in successful media efforts. That's where Buzogany Associates came in and made a real difference. The bottom line: a great service that improved both our relationship with our chapters and their marketing efforts. The term "win/win" is often overused, but in this case, it applies!
Bob Kociolek
Director of Chapter Relations/State Affairs
American Society of Home Inspectors
Exhibition Sales
Many thanks to you Buz for coming to my rescue! I was given the task of adding dimension to the exhibit hall by soliciting previously untapped, non-medical organizations. Your team hit the ground running, and before I knew it, a new database was created, calls were made, and I had a detailed report that I could present for future benchmarking. Thank you for your "can do" attitude, professionalism, and follow through. I couldn't have done it without Buzogany Associates' help.

Speaking Engagements/Presentations
Buz Buzogany did an outstanding half-day presentation on how affinity programs fit into an organization's value proposition, how to measure their success and what to look for in adding or subtracting a program in the future. The information presented was timely, relevant and he is an engaging speaker who held our professional audience's attention. We heard nothing but praises from the attendees and would gladly welcome him back in the future!
M. Alec Parker, DMD
Executive Director
North Carolina Dental Society
It was a pleasure working with Buz from start to finish. He brought an enthusiasm and interest to developing a presentation tailored to our needs. He took the time to talk with not only staff but members of our Association in order to prepare. In addition, he stepped up by offering material suitable for our pre-meeting promotions and our post-meeting follow-up with participants. As a meeting planner, you couldn't ask for more from a speaker!

Regarding your presentation on Branding at our Annual Tradeshow and Convention...We hit a home run! The comments told the story! Our members said they thoroughly enjoyed you and wanted more. As you know, there was an overflow crowd and we added more chairs to accommodate as many as the room would hold! I enjoyed working with you and look forward to the opportunity to bring you back in front of the ISAE members in the near future.
Marilyn Hanley
ISAE Associate Director
Many thanks for the great presentation to the ASAE KPAC Committee. It was a very interesting subject and you did a great job of presenting it. I appreciate your time and effort on our behalf.
