Dear Annamarie,
"Thank you so much for speaking with us and sharing your media expertise during the driver's advancement summit. Your presentation blew me away with valuable information. In fact, I wrote more notes during your section than any of the other speakers. It is too bad I am moving to England, I would have loved to represent your family's company in Texas. They wouldn't happen to have a UK branch would they?! Thank you again and I look forward to seeing you at the track!"
Warmest personal regards,

Marketing & “The Test in the West”
"I mentioned last time that I would be attending a marketing summit this past weekend. I went on Saturday and Sunday to listen to speakers from various areas of the business side of racing (i.e. Kymberly Brantigan PR), Annamarie Malfitana-Strawhand (web design/marketing), Gray Abercrombie [sponsorship (Lowe’s)], Randy LaJoie (driver safety), Peter Visconti (driver development), Matt Yocum (media), etc.). I heard a lot of new tips and ideas that will be very helpful in putting together sponsorship proposals, marketing myself, and presenting myself to others. Annamarie Strawhand was particularly knowledgeable about web sites and driver marketing tools."

"The 2008 Driver Summit was a wise investment and a great way to start the racing season. It covered everything you need to know about presenting yourself on and off the track to keep your racing career moving forward. It was also a pleasure to personally meet all of the the speakers that participated in the Driver Summit. I will definitely be marking my calender for next year's Driver Summit!"
