A Warm Welcome For GPS Business Consultants & Analysts!

All of us at GPS Consulting are filled with excitement and anticipation, knowing that our Annual Meeting (when we gather to share best practices and learn about the newest state and federal regulations and tax code changes) is right around the corner. In order to properly greet the over 300 business consultants and analysts flying in for this event, we took over one of our conference rooms to stuff welcome bags, assembly line style.

Four hours later, each bag had been lovingly hand-packed by Tina, Andrea and Jesse, manning a station of bags, tissue paper, snacks, candies, fruit, etc. Tina was pleased to share that without increasing the budget, by sourcing the welcome bags in-house (with a little help from Sam’s Club) rather than outsourcing, she was able to double the amount of snacks and refreshments provided this year for our attendees!

The bags will be handed out at the front desk upon checking in. Nothing says welcome like an assortment of snacks, sweets (we made sure to include a couple healthy options) and bottled water! Also included was a professionally printed map of the meeting/conference rooms, so that people could easily find their way around the hotel. Lastly, there were the three inspiring words from our President, Tyler Burgess, “Let’s Do This!”

I arrived and took photos just before the final batch was loaded. It was quite impressive to see the welcome bags all boxed and lined up, row after row, ready for delivery!

Ken and Jesse load them up on a dolly and out to the company van.

And, off to the hotel!
