These changes are not ideal\, but we are happy to abide by them if it means that we can host an in-person component to this event. Below is a list of items that all in-person attendees need to be aware of. Failure to abide by these guidelines may result in your removal from the event. \n\n \n\n\n Masks will be required. Face masks will be required for admission and must be worn continuously throughout the event. The only time attendees may remove their face masks is for eating/drinking. \n Social distancing will be enforced. I addition to marks on the floor at registration and tables being spaced 6-feet apart with a limited number of seats at each\, all attendees are asked to maintain a 6-foot distance from others at all times. Due to social distancing guidelines and restrictions on mingling\, attendees will be asked to find their assigned seats as soon as they arrive and network with others at their table. \n Temperature checks will be performed at the door. The local health department is requiring that we take the temperature of each attendee before before they enter the event. Anyone with a fever will be required to leave immediately. \n All food/beverages must be consumed while seated. When you arrive at the event\, please go directly to your seat. At 7:15\, a server will bring a plated breakfast and beverages to you. All beverages and food must be consumed while seated.\n Seating will be assigned. In an effort to provide stable table groups\, we are required to have assigned seating for this event. Your table number will be listed on your nametag so that you know where to sit. If you registered as a part of a group\, we will do our best to ensure that your group is seated together\, unless requested otherwise. \n All attendees must be on the guest list prior to the event. Our venue and the local health department require us to keep an accurate listing of all attendees in case contact tracing is necessary. Since this list must be submitted prior to the event\, we will not have the flexibility to accommodate anyone whose name is not on the list. This includes walk-ins as well as individuals wanting to act as a substitute for someone who is not able to use their reservation\, etc. The deadline to reserve your in-person seat is October 9. \n Please remain seated. Attendees must be seated at their own table the entire time they are at the event\, with the exception of entering\, exiting\, or visiting the restroom.\n Please plan to leave when the program is over. We kindly ask that all guests please leave the venue as soon as the program concludes in order to prevent additional mingling and also to allow staff to clean the space.\n If you are sick or experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms\, please stay home. If you are currently experiencing\, or have experienced in the last 24 hours\, any illness\, especially any symptoms that are present among COVID-19 infections\, or if you have had contact with a known COVID-19 case\, you will not be permitted to attend the event. Please do your part to help us keep all of our guests safe.\n\n\n\n\nFor questions or additional information\, please contact the Director of Membership Engagement\, Whitney Schieber at (573) 817-9119.\n\n\n\n\n\nThank you to our sponsors: Presenting Sponsor Zimmer Communications\; Gold Sponsor Visionworks Marketing Group\; Speaker Sponsor MU Health Care\; Printing Sponsor Columbia Printing and Sign\; Door Prize Sponsors Focus on Health Chiropractic and Missouri State High School Activities Association (MSHSAA)\n\n\n\n\n\nA message from our Gold Sponsor\, Visionworks Marketing Group:\n\n\n\nLocal marketing firm makes video\, digital and coaching deliver for its clients.\n\nVisionworks Marketing Group is celebrating 25 years of business in the mid-Missouri area. As a full-service marketing firm\, we provide solutions in traditional and digital formats\, while also providing strategy\, budgeting\, consulting\, and media planning and placement. However\, today we'd like to focus on just three of our service areas:\n\n-Video production\n\n-Digital strategies and placement\n\n-Training and Coaching\n\n\n\nVideo has become essential to today's marketing efforts. Eighty-one percent of businesses use video as a marketing tool. That's because 66% of consumers would rather watch a video than read about a service or product. Video can be used in traditional television placement\, digital viewership\, digital search ads\, social media\, email blasts\, on-site messaging and more. It is so effective\, of the businesses that do use video in their messaging\, 93% say they've landed a new customer because of it. If you are not using video as part of your marketing strategy\, you are missing out. Let Visionworks Marketing Group provide your company with engaging\, professional video production and placement.\n\n\n\nDigital is such a complicated concept to get your head around. For one thing\, so many\n\nmarketing tools fall under that umbrella. For another\, it is literally changing and evolving daily. With Visionworks Marketing Group\, you have a partner who stays ahead of the digital trends and makes your digital strategy work for you.\n\n\n\nDid you know\, 83% of consumers use Facebook and 64% of consumers will make a purchase after watching videos on social media? Especially in this day and age\, your online presence is critically important to your organization's success. We can help you combine video with your social media plan. Les Borgmeyer\, our Market Man\, will sit down with you and help you identify opportunities. He'll also show you where your marketing is not operating at peak efficiency.\n\n(Les@VisionworksGroup.com)\n\n\n\nObviously\, at Visionworks Marketing Group\, we are big fans of digital and traditional advertising. However\, we know that promoting your brand or service or product is only part of the equation. Other parts include running the business and making the sale. We work one-on-one with clients and also provide training to help navigate the challenges that keep good businesses from being great.\n\n \n\nCompanies with dynamic coaching programs achieve 28% higher win rates. Companies who invest in training have a 24% higher profit margin than organizations that do not. Are you\n\n a salesperson who wants to up your game\;\n\n a sales manager who needs a little help kick-starting your sales crew\;\n\n a business leader who requires guidance taking your business to the next level?\n\n\n\nIf so\, we are able to help. John Shrum\, our Smooth Operator\, has provided training and coaching in the areas of sales\, management and leadership for the last 20 years. Call or email to schedule a free 90-minute consultation with John (Lili@VisionworksGroup.com)\n\n\n\nSo\, just to recap\, let me ask you a few questions \n\n\n\nAre you missing opportunities to include video in your marketing?\n\nDo you need to reach more customers online?\n\nDo you need help getting your business to page one of a Google search?\n\nAre your sales stagnant or shrinking?\n\n\n\nIf your answer to any of these questions is "yes\," we should talk.\n\n\n\nVisionworks Marketing Group\n\nCustomer Centric.

\nA message from our Gold Sponsor\, Visionworks Marketing Group:
\n
\nLocal marketing firm makes video\, digital and coaching deliver for its clients.
\nVisionworks Marketing Group is celebrating 25 years of business in the mid-Missouri area. As a full-service marketing firm\, we provide solutions in traditional and digital formats\, while also providing strategy\, budgeting\, consulting\, and media planning and placement. However\, today we&rsquo\;d like to focus on just three of our service areas:
\n-Video production
\n-Digital strategies and placement
\n-Training and Coaching
\n
\nVideo has become essential to today&rsquo\;s marketing efforts. Eighty-one percent of businesses use video as a marketing tool. That&rsquo\;s because 66% of consumers would rather watch a video than read about a service or product. Video can be used in traditional television placement\, digital viewership\, digital search ads\, social media\, email blasts\, on-site messaging and more. It is so effective\, of the businesses that do use video in their messaging\, 93% say they&rsquo\;ve landed a new customer because of it. If you are not using video as part of your marketing strategy\, you are missing out. Let Visionworks Marketing Group provide your company with engaging\, professional video production and placement.
\n
\nDigital is such a complicated concept to get your head around. For one thing\, so many
\nmarketing tools fall under that umbrella. For another\, it is literally changing and evolving daily. With Visionworks Marketing Group\, you have a partner who stays ahead of the digital trends and makes your digital strategy work for you.
\n
\nDid you know\, 83% of consumers use Facebook and 64% of consumers will make a purchase after watching videos on social media?

\n
\nSo\, just to recap\, let me ask you a few questions&hellip\;
\n

\nDo you need to reach more customers online?

\nAre your sales stagnant or shrinking?
