Troy TuckerLubbock Executive Association
CCA Texas – Coastal Conservation Association CCA San Antonio Chapter

“Before we moved to your Company our raffle ticket sales force production and performance was an ‘unknown’ each year. Who would show up; how would they perform; how many raffle tickets and $ were lost? The whole effort around selling raffle tickets was a weak link in our annual banquet process.

With our move to you and The HPPI Agency, Inc., the entire raffle ticket process became so much simpler and pleasant. Your sales force of ladies always dress and conduct themselves in a professional manner. The raffle ticket sales process goes off without a hitch and close out at the end of the night is painless. We never have any significant issues with unaccounted for tickets or $. And it has been like this since the first year you came on board – 25 years!”
