The HAHU Annual Symposium was a great success!!!
And we could not have done it without you!
Thank you to all of our Exhibitors, Sponsors, Valued Agents, Brokers, Insurance Professionals and all who took time out of your busy Open Enrollment season to share information and ideas with each other. We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the Exhibitors and Sponsors, without whose underwriting this event would not be possible. Special Thanks to the Symposium Committee, which was comprised of, but not limited to: Dirk Blankenship, Craig Splawn, Crystal Hoffman, Tom Cottar, Don Jones and Jeff Bacot.
As we enter the Holiday Season, let’s keep in mind those who are less fortunate. Thank you to those who contributed to our annual Houston Food Bank Drive at the Symposium—and to those who shared holiday wishes in “Letters from Home” campaign to bring a bit of homegrown thanks to US troops stationed abroad. This is the time of year to spend time with family, remember the value of friendship and set something aside for others.
The fourth quarter can be challenging in itself. Everyone has a hectic schedule trying to renew their block of business, move clients to a new carrier or win new clients with the most compelling proposal. Let’s celebrate each victory and look to those lost opportunities as stepping stones for next year. This can be an exciting time for all of us. I encourage you to feel confident that we will continue in this wonderful industry of ours as we watch health care reform play out.
In closing, let’s keep the leaders of our country and state in our prayers. Let’s prepare to bring home our troops and give them the hero’s welcome they deserve. Continue to stay positive and optimistic! Thank you for your membership and participation in the best organization in the world.
