10	Your conference newsletter or overnight discussion notes reach the site before you do, and you get there at 6 a.m.
9	Participants take bets on whether you'll really be able to deliver 2,500 copies of a final conference report by the time they leave the closing plenary. Everyone who bets against you loses.
8	You assume an Ottawa-based firm can't handle cross-country consultations in more than a dozen cities, or report on major conferences in places from Kuujjuaq to Copenhagen, from Washington State to Washington, D.C., from Halifax to Vancouver, in Bangkok or Geneva, Paris or Budapest. Then you discover that's our speciality.
7	Your workshop sessions run overtime, and your writer doesn't break into hysterical laughter when you ask him or her to stay.
6	It never occurred to you to use a nightly email digest to get your conference results out across the country or around the world. Then, hours after the first posting, the replies begin to arrive, in time to be published in the next day's onsite newsletter.
5	You thought you’d never have a chance to keep up with the latest methods and technologies for linking members and stakeholders to your conference. Then you find a supplier that has its finger on the pulse.
4	You sit down with your red pencil, expecting to spend several hours rewriting our report—after all, that's what happened the last time you hired a consultant. It gradually dawns on you that you won't have to this time. A few pages later, you find that you’re actually enjoying the report.
3	You were all set to deliver exactly the same publication you produced at last year’s meeting—not because you liked it, but because you thought there was no other option. Then you realize there are a few other possibilities open to you.
2	You’re afraid an onsite publication will deter people from registering for future conferences, by showing them they don't have to attend the event to get the information they need. After reading our report or newsletter, anyone who wasn't there regrets it...and begins making plans to attend next time.
1	We deliver... and we make it look easy.
