Why Technical Attendees Love No Fluff Just Stuff
Attendees at prior No Fluff Just Stuff events give us high marks. Here 
are 5 reasons why:

(1). Excellent Speakers (with great access during and before/after their 
presentations);
(2). Limited Attendance (to give attendees access they deserve, we limit 
attendance to 250 Registrants MAX);
(3). Pre-screened Presentations to Ensure “Good Stuff” (and not a bunch 
of Vendor Sales Pitches, and No Vendor Marketecture Slides
(4). Great Value – (our reg fees are 60% BELOW well-known national 
conferences
(5). Great repeat attendance – Since 2002, we have delivered seventy 
(70) conferences throughout North America with over 11,000 attendees.

One recent attendee told us:
"It is exceedingly rare to hear that many gifted public speakers in one 
environment, and I've never attended a seminar/conference where all of 
the classes I chose were of immediate use to me in my work. Thank you 
for organizing such a spectacular event."
