As we wrap up Q1, I’m feeling a sense of momentum across the Premier Group community. February brought a surge of energy and fresh ideas, with many of you returning from national shows and jumping right into our Refuel sessions—thank you to everyone who showed up and engaged.
It also feels like we’re finally turning the corner from a long winter stretch. Travel schedules are picking back up, spring breaks are underway, and with that comes renewed energy—I hope your clients are reaching out with new projects and opportunities.
Looking ahead, our focus is firmly on the Annual Meeting in early May. Below, you’ll find exciting updates, including details on the philanthropic initiative we’ll be supporting together onsite. We’re also thrilled to welcome Blezoo to the Premier Group family—please join me in giving them a warm welcome. I’m looking forward to seeing many of you in Scottsdale!
Cheers, Dana Geiger | Executive Director

Our upcoming Annual Meeting in Scottsdale is just around the corner, and we’re excited to once again bring our community together for three days of connection, inspiration, and fresh ideas. This event is designed to spark new relationships, strengthen existing ones, and leave you energized with opportunities to bring back to your business.
We’re thrilled to welcome keynote presenter Seth Mattison, who will lead our Professional Development day conversation after we kick the day off with a State of The Industry conversation with PPAI President and CEO Drew Holmgreen. Be sure to click here to preview the full Education Day lineup and see what’s in store.
This year, we’re proud to partner with St. Mary’s Food Bank for our philanthropic initiative. Together, we’ll take part in a fun, team-based activity to help fill local food shelves while building connections and creating lasting memories. If you’d like to make an additional impact, you can also support St. Mary’s with a donation here .
And don’t miss our morning activities designed to energize both body and mind—from a stretching and flexibility class led by Lori Bolton to a guided hike up beautiful Camelback Mountain with Matt Wagner.
We can’t wait to see you there—it’s shaping up to be an incredible few days.
