What they have to say:

“In the business of events, there are millions of decisions to make.  One of the earliest and best decisions we ever made was to work with Erika Welling. Erika’s expertise could never be totally encompassed on a business card or website.  Her depth of industry knowledge is unparalleled and her creativity is among the best in the business.  She consistently created designs for us that wowed us and our attendees.  Erika is an amazing artist but in addition to that she has a fantastic mind for business, keeping her clients and vendors on schedule, anticipating any needs or issues that arise and always keeping budgets in shape.  Erika’s experience and connections in the industry also serve as a great asset to her clients, helping to solve problems big and small. Make your first decision, and choose Erika!” —- Sierra Smith, Director of Meetings and Events, NIRSA
