About Us: Testimonials
Below are some testimonials from our clients categorized by all aspects of association management.
Forward Thinking & Effective Management
"Having worked with Anas Marketing & Management as President for 3 years, I am more than happy to provide you with information on Peter Anas and the high quality services that his management company provides to the Friends of the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (FNIDCR).
Our leadership is extremely happy with what we are getting from our Executive Director. He is expeditious, forward-thinking, strategic, and effective in matters of marketing, advocacy and fundraising. Without any hesitation, I can attest that he has elevated our organization from a stepchild to a player in the landscape of dental research advocacy.
Without the infrastructure that we are getting from Anas Marketing & Management, we would not be able to sustain our presence at this level.
In sum, it is without any reservations that I recommend his company for services that you are possibly seeking for your organization. Feel free to get in touch with me if you are looking for any specific pieces of information."

Improved Programs & Oversight
"In my four years as President of the Friends of the NIDCR I came to appreciate Anas Marketing & Management and Peter Anas as an exceptional partner rather than Executive Director. He is well organized, transparent, communicative and always proactive. The work of the Friends was enhanced by his staff's attention to detail and taking us through a very difficult financial time as well. The choice of his company proved to be a most important decision for the Friends. Our gala, publications and web presence were markedly improved and the work of our Board enhanced. I can recommend them with the strongest enthusiasm."

Transition
"Shortly after our move to Anas, it was evident that the previous management company had no written daily procedures for staff, and had not completed much work in the final three months of their contract. Anas picked up the slack and was able to bring everything up-to-date and improve all aspects of our national office. In addition, within three months of Anas taking over, our sister organization was jealous of the improved presence of all BONENT member communication. Thank you Peter and staff!"

Full-Service Monthly Accounting
"Travel Tech has worked with Anas Marketing and Management since 2013 when they were retained to assume bookkeeping and accounting responsibilities for our association. From day one, Peter and Marilyn worked with us to understand our bookkeeping and accounting and then set us on a path toward normalizing and managing the systems and process. Ever since then, they have done a tremendous job in maintaining our monthly bookkeeping, finances, and annual budgeting, tax and insurance compliance. Their attention to detail, responsiveness and superior management of our association's records are all exceptional. We are now working with them on graphic design, marketing and production of our annual report. I can't recommend them highly enough."

Executive Director

Day-to-Day Office Operations
"The entire staff has been very helpful to me in my role as President of the National Association of Disability Representatives. Anas took over the day-to-day management of NADR from a Board-managed situation. They created and implemented staff policies and procedures to ensure all areas of the organization ran smoothly. We have worked on several projects together and I find them to be very organized and methodical in their approach to completing tasks, while also being flexible enough to make necessary changes in procedures without markedly disturbing the process or diminishing the returns of such. I can say, unequivocally, that Anas made my life much easier during my tenure as President of NADR, Inc."
James R. Shaw, M.A.,
Immediate Past President, National Association of Disability Representatives
Management of 20 Regional Seminars
"It's been a pleasure working with Anas staff on 20 regional seminars over the last 6 years. They've provided overall management, event planning, marketing, accounting, registration and worked with my committee and all speakers. Very responsive and easy to work with!”
Lyle Smith BSN, CPDN
Vice President of Education & Examinations, Board of Nephrology Examiners (BONENT)

Financial Viability
"Peter Anas and his staff have changed the face of a national non-profit organization on whose Board I serve, turning around a dim financial picture and making the organization highly viable in economically tough times and using creative marketing strategies to build membership and increase visibility. He has brought many different constituents together to work successfully toward common goals."
Kathy Hammitt,
Treasurer, Friends of the National Institute of Dental & Craniofacial Research
Branding
"WESG found a reliable partner in Anas Marketing & Management to help our organization develop a branding program geared to a much larger audience. In a matter of months, we teamed to successfully craft and invigorate core outreach marketing vehicles, with a common new image, including all brochures (membership, corporate and conferences), a complete website redesign, introduction of macromedia flash email announcements, member directory and transition of a quarterly newsletter to a magazine format that garnered broad interest and participation from new and existing members. It also generated new sources of non-dues revenue with the use of corporate ads. Thanks to the Anas team, our association's image is truly representative of the caliber of women we represent."

Executive Director, Women Executives in State Government
Computer Based Testing Certification
"This has been a very exciting time for BONENT and for those nephrology professionals who needed to be certified in the 22 months after federal mandate. With a Paper & Pencil Exam process for over 35 years, the BONENT Board, Exam Committee worked with the staff on many administrative changes over the past year in preparation for a successful implementation of the new Computer Based Testing process at over 200 worldwide locations."

Conference Management
"With regards to the NADR annual education conference this spring in Albuquerque New Mexico, you and your staff were available every minute before the scheduled sessions, during those sessions and afterwards. The extra efforts required to manage evening event activities was especially time consuming and you never flagged in your energy. The conference marketing materials and the conference web site was excellent, in addition to your regular updating of the NADR website on a timely basis."
Judith Knouse,
Board Member and Newsletter Editor, NADR
Publication
"The newly-designed newsletter combined with the new content you developed is spectacular!"

Publishing & Attention to Details
"Anas Marketing & Management took a large coordination project (200 page guide) off our hands and did a great job. They were attentive to detail and very courteous working with over 200 museums from across the USA."
Danette Sokacich,
American Association of Museums
Meeting Promotion
"We are extremely pleased with Anas Marketing's ability to transition Forest Resources Association from a low-key, two color promotion to a co-coordinated marketing campaign with full color and modern graphics. We look forward to working with Anas Marketing in revamping other marketing tools such as our membership brochure and web site."
Richard Lewis,
President, Forest Resources Association
Membership Marketing
"The folks at Anas Marketing are a really good group to work with. After designing a new Membership Brochure, they were very patient and flexible in working with us to make numerous changes to both the text and layout. We have received great response from our local chapters and new members on the new brochure."
Torrey Hairston,
Marketing Director, Professional Aviation Maintenance Association
Conference Management
"The staff at Anas Marketing & Management coordinated every aspect of our Annual Meetings and Fall Seminar (Washington, Toronto, Las Vegas, Hawaii and others). As President and Chairman of the meeting, I was impressed with their knowledge and calm coordination of meeting management."
Robert Meckelnberg, MD,
Past President, American College of Nuclear Physicians
Web Site
"You transformed our small web site into a reliable certification resource of over 100 pages. The design was well received and the tremendous amount of content helped reduce the number of phone calls to our office!"
