  • I valued the training and it offered me exactly the information I hoped to gain by attending.  It was well presented and very interactive.  We had a mix of attendees including Agency, Publisher and Outdoor.  Everyone participated.  I am already using knowledge I gained from the workshop.  I highly recommend the Data Fundamentals Workshop. – Deborah Frye, VP National Advertising Sales, Glacier Media Inc.
