"Lots of support: somebody from Shepard was always there for me, I never felt like I needed to "find someone." The pre-conference communication was fabulous."
Maggie Vohs, Kite Trade Association International
"I just wanted to say that, as an Exhibits Coordinator, I work with many Expo companies, from the very tiny (still using paper order forms) to the behemoths like GES and Freeman. However, your website is by far the best, most intuitive, and easiest to use I have encountered. I just wanted to say thank you and pass along my compliments on a website that does exactly what is needed in an easy to use and easy to understand format."
Erin Norris, Marketing & Exhibits Coordinator, Oxford Journals
"It's people like Natalie (Ward) that make people like me want to do business with companies like Shepard."

"I am extremely pleased with Shepard's performance. I cannot begin to tell you how impressed and thrilled I am about your Client Portal! I think I am in love! This PM system makes life so much easier and keeps everything right at your fingertips. I love how it allows you to make constant changes and updates without going through 5 different people. GOOD JOB SHEPARD!"

“Thank you for another wonderful Championship event at the Georgia Dome. Every year we strive to do better so that the experience for all is a great one, and our feedback this year’s event was “the best ever”. There are many reason’s why FIRST chooses Shepard but to sum it up—you’re simply the best and Shepard played an important role in our success.”
Bill Miller, Director – First Robotics Competition

"I would like to take the time to thank you and the Shepard staff for a job well done. You are a shining star in the areas of professionalism, and most importantly overall service. You have gone over and beyond your responsibilities to make our convention a most rewarding experience."
Donna Taylor, Epilepsy Foundation
"Your work, as always, was exemplary: we felt well-prepared for both shows and both events ran very smoothly: any “challenges” that arose were dealt with swiftly, calmly, and appropriately. Our exhibitors and our staff were always treated courteously and promptly and the equipment on both show sites was in excellent condition and well maintained. Staffs take their cues from their leadership, so I know that the friendliness, cooperativeness and excellent customer service attitudes demonstrated reflect genuine concern for our events and staff."
Nan Alderson, Manager, American Craft Council Shows
"The people were very nice and took care of items that needed attention right away. Your team at Shepard was great to work with!"
Terry Doughery, Refrigerated Foods Association Conference and Exhibition
"Shepard Exposition Services took the time to listen to our Trade Show Committee and me and then came back to us with solutions and offerings that focused on both our specific needs and the needs of our exhibitors. After working with Shepard for the past five years, our decision to change has proven to be positive based on my experience and the feedback from our exhibitors."
Alicia Balonek, Director, Tradeshow Operations, IPC-Association Connecting Electronics Industries
