EXHIBITOR INVITATION LETTER
Dear Vendors:
On behalf of the Breastfeeding: The Gold Standard Conference, I would like to extend an invitation to you
and your company to join us at our 18th annual conference. This year’s event will be held at The Natchez
Grand Hotel and Natchez Convention Center in Natchez, MS from April 15-17.
This event attracts hundreds of medical and breastfeeding professionals throughout the southeast and
beyond. The 2015 Conference promises to be an event not to miss with confirmed speakers:
• Marsha Walker, RN, IBCLC
• Donna W. Logan, MS, RD, IBCLC
This conference is a time of renewal and information gathering, not just from the scheduled speakers, but
from the medical and commercial aspects of the field as a whole. The more products and information that
are available for them to peruse and try, and the more familiar they are with your products, the more likely
they will be to purchase or recommend their benefits.
It is my hope that you will be able to join us in celebrating a new or continued partnership with you and
your company at this important annual event.
Vendors will have two display options this year:
1.
Two-day option. Maximum exposure and benefit
a. Thursday, April 16th and Friday, April 17th
b. Includes one lunch ticket for each day.
c. Cost: $275 + door prize for each day for one table. Each additional table is $50/day.
