From the Desk of MMG President Susan McDaniel
Moving Forward Moving forward is exactly what the Mopar Masters Guild has done. We had our very first annual mee ngs virtually on February 10th and 11th. Our 29thAnnual Mopar Masters Guild Mee ng. I must say it was a huge success! Our a endance was higher than ever, our par cipa on was astounding and judging from the feedback, everyone walked away with some really great ideas and a new hope for the future. There is nothing that compares to mee ng live and feeling that energy flowing through the room, but I could definitely feel it flowing through my computer screen! Ryan Maguire, Serjon Youkhana and their Team Stellan s joined our Wednesday mee ng; we really value their involvement and insight with our guild. They are all very busy with mee ngs and projects of their own but always find me to discuss, clarify, and interject on any topics, issues, ques ons and concerns that our group is faced with. We will con nue to MOVE FORWARD. Our friend, mentor and MMG 20 Group Moderator Mark Beaton joined us on Thursday and gave a very insigh ul presenta on on security. He always has a way of sta ng points and bringing up topics to make us think about things in a whole different light. Well done Mark! A big thank you from the en re group! 2020 was a huge year for change and uncertainty. We have not let fear stop us. Something good comes out of everything bad. We have all stretched our minds, pulled together, learned how to do more with less and have come full circle with the value of cross training. We have done the same thing with the Mopar Masters Guild. We have had huge success with our Virtual Vendor Mee ngs. We have been able to get more people in front of our vendors and provide them a more cap ve audience. On February 24 Chris Messer with 10 Missions Media and John Haluch with OEConnec on will be teaming up to do a very different and exci ng (that’s all I can say for now) presentaon. You don’t want to miss this! Doug Johnson with Katzkin Leather will be live with us on March 18th so please MARK YOUR CALENDARS! We will con nue to have these mee ngs and as many as we possibly can un l we can all meet again in person. The more me goes on, the more we are all coming to the realiza on that that day may be a li le farther away than we originally thought. Un l then, we will improvise, we will con nue to support each other, share informa on, and become stronger as a group. We will MOVE FORWARD. Un l We Meet Again,
