The Communications Marketing Association (CMA)
The Communications Marketing Association (CMA) membership is comprised of the leading manufacturers, manufacturer’s representatives and distributors in the wireless communications industry. While CMA offers value to these professionals on a year-around basis, the core value is found in the annual Communications Marketing Conference (CMC) event, which has been held for thirty five years. CMA also maintains a database of manufacturer’s reps, distributors and manufacturers, which is valuable to public safety, government and industrial wireless buyers.
Participants in the CMC engage in a dynamic and well-orchestrated event designed to maximize the opportunities for training, education and networking. Manufacturers find CMC to be a convenient, concentrated opportunity to hold classroom style training for their manufacturer’s reps and distributors on new products and company initiatives outside of the distractions of a trade show or the expense of an on-site meeting at their offices. For leaders in wireless, it’s a must-attend.
Successful in terms of attendance and in a conference agenda heralded by all to be both innovative and far ranging, CMC 2009 in San Diego, November 10-13, launched with a keynote address from Marty Cooper, considered the “father of the cellular telephone”. Other program highlights included two presentations and an interactive workshop headed by Dr. Daniel McQuiston, leading international expert on forging successful manufacturer-rep relationships. CMC 2009 also featured three days of training from leading manufacturers for their manufacturer’s reps and distributors, exhibits from emerging wireless communications companies and networking opportunities during the day and at cocktail receptions and a formal dinner.
