Raving Fans

“I personally have seen NARPM® grow to be a successful organization under the management of OMG. They have ensured that the organization is running efficiently and effectively, while remaining friendly and customer-centric. NARPM® is a national association, so OMG has taken into consideration the different time zones and has extended customer service hours to accommodate all members regardless of location. They listen with a keen ear and are always professional and transparent in all dealings. They genuinely care about the success of our association. Each department of OMG knows what it means to retain a personal touch and they always keep the association’s well-being in mind.”
