Our next meetings
April 23: Ever wonder what it takes to sell an experience? Now imagine selling that same experience dozens of times over an extended period and keeping it fresh for consumers because you definitely want repeat customers. That’s the challenge that Koby Schellenger faces in his job as Corporate Service and Marketing Manager for the Madison Mallards.
You can meet Koby on Wednesday, April 23, 2008 at
the IABC-Madison luncheon as he discusses this year’s promotions
for the Madison Mallards.

The International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) is a global network that provides the content, the credibility and the community to help communication professionals succeed in their careers.
IABC/Madison (Wisconsin USA) is one of 100 IABC chapters around the world. Our members include experts in all areas of communication and across all business, public and non-profit sectors. Most of us work in Madison, but some of us are located in Baraboo, LaCrosse, Beloit, Central Wisconsin and the Fox River Valley.
The Madison chapter began in April 1969 as the Professional Communicators of Wisconsin. It became ProCom/IABC in January, 1981 and became IABC/Madison in April, 1994.
Our monthly luncheon meetings are held at 11:30 a.m. on the last Wednesday of each month except in July and December. We typically have lunch at noon after networking, and have a 30- to 45-minute program after lunch. The cost is $17.00 for members, $23.00 for guests and $12.00 for students.
