I have been participating in CRMC for seven years. The connections, networking, and overall good vibes at the conference make it a ‘must attend’ conference. The energy and people that attend CRMC are my favorite part, everyone is friendly, helpful, and the overall conference and sponsor vibe does not feel "sales-y" at all. The 2024 presentations were great, and Erica Dhawan was the best keynote of the event.

I always come away with knowledge, ideas, and vendor connections. But the thing I love the most is how CRMC is a ‘safe space.’ We’re all marketers there to improve our brands-- But there isn’t a feeling of competitiveness. At this event, marketers that would normally be competing for customers become friends. My first session, I had McDonald’s on my right and Burger King on my left. There was zero competitive feeling! It was such a refreshing and pure experience. Thank you to the team for creating a space for learning and connection.

CRMC is by far the most balanced event I attend regularly, and it’s refreshing to not just hear sales pitches from vendors (acknowledging I am one!) and truly having the opportunity to hear from brands about what they are doing, what’s working, and what pain points they continue to experience that we might be able to help them with.

CRMC is the premier event for brands and supplier partners that focus on improving customer experience. It allows for ample time for conversations with peers, thought-provoking presentations, and a forum to learn about the latest/greatest on the horizon in the customer space.

As a sponsor, I enjoyed networking with brands in a comfortable setting where they feel enabled to share their real needs, challenges, and opportunities. CRMC delivers…it is a must-attend event every year for our team. We bring our clients, and they benefit from networking with industry peers about challenges and new initiatives. But what I cherish most about CRMC, are the relationships that we develop!

I enjoyed listening to and learning from knowledgeable marketers from strong brands. There were many attendees looking for support with their loyalty program or wanting to learn more from vendors about loyalty. Lastly, I enjoyed the happy hour each day because it allowed me to connect with others.

CRMC is a wonderful event! So much experience to learn from, dig into & discuss. In a great location with options for food and entertainment! Engaging content and a big crowd. I enjoyed all the presentations, and that we could rotate from the large room to the smaller rooms. Very interactive and allowed for us all to network.

Have you ever attended a conference that was both stimulating and exhausting (because you can't stop talking about and processing what you've learned!)? This has been my experience at the CRMC every year. The presentations are inspiring and informative, with real examples of what is working well along with what hasn't. My team and I always return to the office with key takeaways that are actionable right away. I credit the CRMC with significant "unlocks" that have helped our business grow, not just our customer engagement and sales, but also our people.
