Online, February 1, 2012 (Newswire.com) - SMC Software (SMC), a subsidiary company of Smart Marketing Concepts, Inc. held its 1st Annual Client User Conference in Tampa, Florida - January 18th - 19th. Designed specifically for off-airport parking operators, clients from all across the US attended this FREE two-day "educational" event to learn how to best leverage SMC's technology to dominate their respective marketplace.
The conference began on Wednesday with a tour of Tampa's premier off-airport parking facility (and SMC client) - A1 Express Airport Parking! Located immediately across from Tampa International Airport, the A1 Express facility which offers both self and valet, covered and uncovered parking and a variety of auto care services, provides an ideal "real time" working environment, and fully functional showcase for SMC's innovative web-based Centralized Reservation System (CRS) and point-of-sale (POS) technologies.
A number of new and ground breaking enhancements were unveiled and demonstrated "live and in person" for the first time and generated a good bit of excited conversation at dinner that night.
Thursday's agenda included and array of presentations and interactive discussions on a number of topics such as:
• Online Marketing Strategies
• Real-time Centralized Reservations Platform
• Leveraging Point-of-Sale/Revenue Management System
• Proven Methods to Capture Market Share
• Controlling cost and Increasing Revenue
• Systems Integration (License Plate Recognition, etc.)
"As our client base in the parking industry continues to expand, meetings like this one will become an ever increasingly important function of what we do, because they provide the ideal forum for empowering our clients to remain at the leading edge of their industry" said Mike Harley, SMC president. "I believe this may have been one of the largest off-airport "ONLY" parking operator conference ever held in the US."
As an added bonus, and in appreciation for our clients' attendance, SMC provided a full sized "green screen" video production platform for filming 30 second YouTube type commercials to be professionally edited and added to their websites - absolutely free!
Here is what one client had to say:
"I just got home and back to work, but before I get started I wanted to thank you and your team for an outstanding conference. The fact that you did it free of charge, still amazes me. Thanks for all of the great info. We will be in touch soon about getting things geared up to the next level. I hope the whole SMC team is able to get some well deserved rest. Thanks."
