bbcon2013: Round Up from Team Altru

Team Altru had a fantastic time at bbcon this year! Breakout sessions, customer meet and greets, photo booths, demos and more filled the days. Sometimes it's just really nice to finally put a face with a name. There are several of you we talk to on a regular basis.

Here are a few of my favorite quotes from our team:

"During a prospect demo, I came out with this: 'I know I keep saying yes to everything you ask, but guess what? It’s all true.'  I realized what I said 3 seconds later. Someone upstairs is a marketing genius." - Jeff Heffner, Product Lead



"At one point during the ARCU panel discussion, a staff member from a non-Altru aquarium mentioned their disparate systems and the difficulties compiling data to get an accurate picture of what’s going on at their organization. I heard 'you should look at Altru' stated by our customers several times during the session. It’s great that the value of Altru being a comprehensive system is being realized by many of our orgs." - Jonathon Leeke, Product Manager

"I overheard a few attendees (non-Altru customers) say 'that was a bit of an Altru love-fest!' after one of the breakout session." - Laura Beussman, Marketing

"I SOOOOOO enjoyed BBCON this year. Thank you to everyone that attended. We had over 30 customers and ‘future customers” (orgs evaluating Altru) at the conference. I loved getting to talk to all of the Altru customers and hear the great things they are doing at their organizations. I also enjoyed watching everyone interact with each other – sharing best practices, tips and tricks, and a laugh or two." - Jay Odell, VP

I know many of you were unable to make it to bbcon this year. Our marketing guy, Ryan King, was nice enough to take notes. You can check them out below.
