David McLean Hewitt Manager, aiswalearningnet, ICT: Do You Forum 2004	"Faced with the many challenges of getting this inaugural conference off the round, I was astounded by the cool and calm manner in which you approached each issue and the practical advice you offered to provide a more than satisfactory resolution to each... Whilst it is important to ensure the major parts of a conference are covered, it was your experience in also identifying the small parts, which are equally crucial... I was overwhelmed by the many positive comments passed to me about the highly professional carriage of the conference sessions and exhibition..."
Denise Luscombe Treasurer, Organising Committee, 5th National Paediatric Physiotherapy Conference 2003	"The financial management was particularly important as there were initial concerns regarding the shifting of responsibility from the National Organisation to Promaco. After considerable discussion, we followed Promaco’s advice and utilised their very efficient financial team. They provided up to date reporting with all GST allocated separately to enable a clear picture of the finances at all times. This greatly reduced the load of the Treasurer. We would thoroughly recommend their processes to others."
Dr Wally Cox Chair, Organising Committee, 16th Commonwealth Forestry Conference, 2001	"We have been almost overwhelmed by the compliments received from both Australian and overseas delegates, many of whom regarded this as the best conference they have been to ... and I know this would not happen without the dedication, professionalism and good sense of your staff."
Bob and Joy Graham 4th Australian Multi-Disciplinary Conference on Parkinson’s Disease, 1997	"The generic knowledge of conference organisation you demonstrated and so freely gave us, despite the fact that we had not yet agreed to engage your services impressed me greatly. Impressive also was the patience with which you dealt with our initial, naive questions. Most impressive of all was your empathetic willingness to listen to our description of the particular disabilities associated with Parkinson’s Disease and your obvious capacity to address these as part of the planning process. ... Thank you for guiding us so successfully through the mine fields of venue selection, sponsorship raising, budgeting and program planning. "Thank you for always seeming to have unlimited time, despite your very busy schedule, to keep us on the right track, to listen with such skill and responsiveness to our concerns and questions, to re-enthuse us at those times when we doubted that the whole thing would work. ... And thank you Don for phoning a day or so after the conference to check whether we were feeling too flat after the event. ... It has been a great pleasure to work with you..."
Ellen M Kittson Chair of the ISOPOL XII Organising Committee, 1995	"... the delegates, invited guests and the Committee obviously owe a debt of gratitude to your organisation for the amount of work carried out on behalf of ISOPOL in ensuring that it happened ... with relatively few disasters happening simultaneously. Every award and public recognition of your organisation’s ability is well deserved!"
Clive Kendrick & Wayne McGowan Education Department, 1995	"From the moment you came on board all anxiety that we had previously felt seemed to evaporate. Your calmness, undoubtedly based on your vast experience, immediately made us feel that the conference would really happen - that, although time was short, it certainly did not pose an insurmountable problem. "Nothing ever seemed to be too much trouble ... We were also particularly impressed by your constant attendance at the conference. You or members of your team were always there to assist - from adjusting lights or volume to making sure that all participants knew where they were going..."
Dr T H Edgar Multimedia Symposium Steering Committee Chairman, 1992	"I doubt if we will ever be able to sufficiently highly praise the noteworthy support and effort given to the organisation by the Promaco team. As the highlight of the opening ceremony Promaco requested the opportunity to organise a surprise event in keeping with the Australia Day theme ... I have never witnessed such a moving and professionally presented event at a conference such as this. The presentation and performance were superb and praise abounded from all those present. I believe that our success would not have been possible without the Promaco team. I stress the ‘team effort’ because they acted as a team in the best sense of the word and were ever ready to help in any area, regardless of what their original appointed task may have been."
