I wanted to thank you all again for the tremendous CRMC and close-out chapter in Chicago. I was able to chat with many retailers and vendors this year all who continue to share very positive feedback on their experience, and how this conference continues to be a step apart from others in the industry.

I came away from CRMC feeling so energized! The sessions were engaging, and I walked away with some real golden nuggets I can actually use. It was inspiring to be surrounded by people who really get what it’s like to be in marketing today. Honestly, it felt like a reset button in the middle of all the noise...and we all need more of that. The atmosphere at CRMC is so welcoming and fun too – it’s unlike any other conference I’ve been to!

What an incredible couple of days at the CRMC! Thank you for asking me to speak and inspiring me along the way. I learned from so many great brands, like the power of truly knowing your customer from Carter's. The ability to drive relevancy through optimizing journeys, not just touch points from Sephora. And ‘the biggest mistake we make’ from Roger Williams at Marigold. I connected with current partners and met ones that inspired me for the future of this space. I even made some new friends! Thank you Craig Wood and Devon Wylie for a great event. See you next year!

I just wanted to send a quick note of thanks. We got a ton of value out of CRMC this year and were really impressed across the board. The quality of the speakers, the way everything was organized, and the caliber of attendees all made it one of the most impactful events we have attended. It was clear how much thought and intention went into every part of the experience. The sessions were not only relevant but also forward-looking, and the conversations happening in the halls were just as valuable as those on stage. You created the kind of environment that encourages real connection, thoughtful discussion, and new ideas. We left energized, with a lot of momentum and some exciting new conversations in motion. We are already looking forward to being even more involved next year and contributing wherever we can. Thanks again for everything you put into making CRMC such a standout event.

I just had a fun and inspirational few days at CRMC. Great catching up with former colleagues, seeing all the inspiring presentations, particularly the keynotes from Riaz Meghji, Neil Pasricha, and Shabnam Mogharabi. As CRM and Loyalty professionals, we strive to create meaningful, one-on-one connections, and going to this event every year always reminds me why I love doing what I do.

Regular attendance at CRMC can be hazardous to a boring and ineffective loyalty program. Inspiring keynotes, practical workshops, and valuable networking delivered actionable strategies for customer loyalty. Highly recommended!

I first attended CRMC back in 2011, and every year it keeps getting better. Hearing directly from other brands is invaluable. The conversations feel real and I walk away with insights I can actually use. The setting makes it easy to meet partners, reconnect with peers, and build relationships that last well beyond the conference. I always leave inspired, clear-headed, and ready to take on the challenges that I will encounter. More importantly, I leave knowing I’ve got a network of partners I can call to brainstorm the next big move.
