When half the world had shut down, they carried on and put on a show, allowing us a very important opportunity to make money. One of the few shows we could do last year. Thanks!

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Worst show promoter. she doesn't hold other vendors to their contact which in turn breaks her contract with you. when you try to speak with her she rudely yells at you.

As a business owner and exhibitor across the United States this is the worst encounter we have ever experienced. Mrs. Starnes has forgotten what customer service and integrity is as a business owner. She miss represented her clientele and did not perform her contract obligations. She treats her exhibitors with great disrespect. I highly caution you before considering doing business with this company.
