    • Scott CollinsPresident/CEO, LinkAge

      Mary Furlong has had a profound impact on LinkAge. Mary's "What's Next" and "Boomer Venture" meetings have been invaluable in helping shape our company's strategy and focus. We truly look forward to expanding our relationship with Mary and her organization. I would highly recommend that anyone interested in working with Boomers seek to develop a relationship with MFA!

    • Peter RadsliffeCo-founder & Chairman, Aging Technology Alliance, CEO, Presto Services Inc.

      From my perspective, it is highly valuable to become part of Mary’s circle. Here are a few different ways to accomplish that: 1) engage her consulting services on a project, 2) become one of her private clients, 3) become a sponsor of one of her conferences, 4) become a sponsor of one of the supporting events at one of her conferences, 5) attend one of her conferences and meet her, or 6) take one of her graduate marketing courses at Santa Clara University. As someone whose business has benefited from the relationships I have gained through an association with Mary, I recommend that you do not overlook the business value that can be gained here.

    • Laura MitchellVP Business Development, GrandCare

      I have attended Mary's conferences for the past few years and can honestly say they are some of the best value conferences I have attended, not only for the connections, but for the educational opportunities. I continue to learn techniques, business strategies and gain significant value from having Mary as a contact and consultant for our organization.

    • Andy CohenFounder & CEO, Caring.com

      If you are involved in marketing products or services to baby boomers, you should absolutely be working with Mary Furlong. Mary has an amazing network, and is the best person I've ever met at connecting people who can help each other. I've attended her Boomer Marketing Summit for the past three years, and have left every conference with at least one new partner and at least one new customer.
