NYSIA thanks Sherri Sklar!”

From June 2003 until June 2007, as SIG Leader and President, Sherri Sklar organized the Sales and Marketing Communities of NYSIA (New York Software Industries Association).

Every month Sherri held different workshops, panel discussions, and seminars on various topics related to Sales and Marketing, attracting over 1,920 CEO’s and professionals in attendance.

Sherri had made such an everlasting impression on the Sales and Marketing attendees, NYSIA wanted to acknowledge her impact by compiling statements from several colleagues who had frequented her events they have words of endearment and appreciation for Sherri. Here are a few examples of how much people enjoyed her topics, atmosphere and company.

"Sherri always brought high level content to the Sales & Marketing SIG and led the discussions masterfully. Many of the techniques and tips provided by her panels were useful and could be successfully (and profitably) implemented across many industries. Sherri's departure offers big shoes to fill!"
Jack PetrieSenior Vice PresidentCRESA Partners

"Over the past several years I have attended many NYSIA sales and marketing events. Without question, I have benefited from the knowledge of the speakers as well as the networking contacts. Additionally, as a speaker for the sales and marking SIG, it has been a pleasure to know and work with a professional like Sherri Sklar. From my experience, she is highly committed and will bring out the best of any organization that engages her, as she did with me. Her commitment to excellence, creating conducive environments for networking and providing quality events, is inspiring and difficult to match. And she will be missed. As the Co-Chair for the NYSIA sales and marking SIG, I can only hope to fill one of her shoes. Thank you Sherri."

"As Director of the SIG, Sherri Sklar created the opportunity for ALL entrepreneurs and technologists to think outside of their own world with new possibilities for the action. She was an excellent moderator and insightful marketing expert who invited special guests selected to contribute new dimensions to the ongoing conversation of business development. Her topics were always on the edge with new concepts, offering participants to share a wider perspective of original ideas. During her tenure with the SIG, Sherri had definitely left her mark of excellence with everyone... Sherri is an amazing, dynamic person who continues to be THE ONE to watch."
Martin Hara, CEO, MHX Design, Inc.

"The NYSIA Sales and Marketing SIG is terrific! It helps me make valuable contacts, stay fresh on all aspects of marketing and sales for technology and pass along what I know to others. SIG leader Sherri Sklar created events of consistently high quality, introduced innovative meeting structures and ran the group very professionally."

"I've been actively attending the Sales and Marketing SIG for many years, and I have really benefited from the excellent programming.
