 Dena Boheim — Director of Marketing — Benedictine Heath System
 I love SMASH! To finally have a conference that focuses on exactly what I do day-in and day-out is amazing and my team thinks so too. Sales, digital, traditional marketing, it's all here. And the opportunity to connect with individuals who are in roles similar to me is invaluable. If you can only attend one conference, SMASH should without a question rise to the top of your list. |
 Chris Harper — VP, Communications — The Arbor Company
 SMASH is my favorite conference of the year! It rivals many of the “non-senior living” sales and marketing conferences that I attend and is leaps and bounds ahead of the industry-specific conferences I’ve been to. I love that it is wholly dedicated to sales and marketing for senior living. The conference is the right mix of education and networking. And that’s not networking for the fun of it, but truly connecting with other sales and marketing professionals to talk about the issues that vex us all.

 Dan Hutson — Chief Strategy Officer — Human Good
 At last we have a conference that aspires to take us beyond the tired strategies of the past. SMASH is the senior living industry’s introduction to the technology-fueled innovative practices that are reinventing sales and marketing in other lines of business.

 Mark Ingram — Principal and CMO — SenioROI
 It has been awesome. A wonderful experience of specifically marketing dedicated to retirement professionals. I haven’t been to any other conferences in the 15 years I’ve been doing this that are concentrated on marketing. The mixture of for-profit and non-profit is something I don’t see at any other conference I attend. SMASH has been a huge success for us to attend.

 Cindy Longfellow — VP, Business Development, Sales and Marketing — Juniper Communities
 The SMASH Senior Marketing Sales Summit is the new “must attend” event. The opportunity to connect the world of senior living marketing with the rest of the marketing world is invaluable. While the senior care industry has embraced many of the newer strategies and tactics employed in other industries, we have generally been slow adopters. SMASH enables us to accelerate our knowledge and growth to meet the incredible changes coming to health care in general and senior services in particular.

 The SMASH conference offers marketing and sales professionals an opportunity for education and networking. The sessions are uniquely focused on long-term care while providing insights and best practices found in other industries. Whether you have an analytical mind or are looking for creative solutions to your pain points, there is a track for you.

 It is great meeting with and learning from top marketing professionals that specialize in the senior living industry. The professionals who attend SMASH are of the highest caliber. The speakers have really interesting and diverse backgrounds, and the topics are advanced and engaging. I haven’t seen a lineup this strong and narrowly focused for professionals since I joined the industry.

 SMASH filled the gap of the missing component which our industry so desperately needed. A conference, forum, community, as well as a network of its own created by professionals in our field who understand what sales & marketing professionals desire, is truly inspiring.

 To be a true leader in any industry, you must look outside the industry for inspiration on how to do things not only better…but altogether different. Senior’s housing and long-term care is on the threshold of unprecedented change. It’s time to look at things differently! SMASH inspires you to look at things differently.
