SMC Software to host its First Annual Client User Conference

Sept. 14, 2011 - PRLog -- September 15, 2011 – SMC Software (SMC), a subsidiary company of Smart Marketing Concepts, Inc. will hold its First Annual Client User Conference in Tampa, Florida on January 18-19, 2012. SMC believes this type of conference is a first-of-its-kind for the off-airport parking industry.

“Our client base in the parking industry is growing,” said Mike Harley, SMC president, “and, as we continue to enhance our product, improve our services and develop new integration capabilities, keeping our customers informed, educated and able to leverage SMC’s technology to if fullest capacity is absolutely essential. That’s why we felt that this was the ideal time to bring this particular group of entrepreneurs together for a hands-on look at everything SMC has in its developmental pipeline and to encourage broad-based feedback and suggestions.”

The conference will begin with a tour of Tampa’s premier off airport parking facility - A1 Express Airport Parking. Located immediately across from Tampa International, A1 Express, SMC’s first client, provides a unique opportunity to observe the latest innovations of SMC’s web-based technology being put to use in a “real-time” work environment offering both self and valet parking as well as a variety of auto care services.

During the two-day event, SMC clients and invited guests will participate in a number of workshops and interactive discussions whose topics will include:

•   Online Marketing Strategies
•   Real-time Centralized Reservations Platform
•   Leveraging Point-of-Sale/Revenue Management System
•   Proven Methods to Capture Market Share
•   Controlling cost and Increasing Revenue
•   Systems Integration

According to Harley, this conference is designed to help their customers prepare for 2012 and provide an informal venue for networking with their peers from all across the US. Alex Sivar, president of the Parking Club, an SMC client servicing Jacksonville International said, “I am excited about the networking opportunities and motivated to attend with my partner.”
