Our professional non-profit association was going through some transitions with our management association and the Board of Directors deemed it was timely and important to get an objective, external review of our management fees relevant to the services provided. After seeking proposals from several consultants, we engaged the services of Bill Pawlucy from Association Options, LLC and were extremely pleased with both the process and final report! He listened, sought the information needed with professional tact and proficiency, communicated effectively, and delivered as promised. We are grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Bill Pawlucy!

On behalf of the WG, I want to say we appreciate the extra steps you have had to assist us with lately – sending things more than once and remind us of tasks. The significant extra time the past week both out of the office and “attending” video/audio conferences has made it difficult to get everything done for our “real jobs” and track everything.

Thanks to the great support and guidance we received, our organization has been able to make a successful transition to a new management structure.
