MCH hosted a retirement reception for Willa Vaught on Wednesday, June 25th. A large
contingent of current and previous MCH employees joined Willa's friends and family in recognizing
her for 41.6 years of service.
Guest speakers included Dr. Edwin Long, Mary Long, Peter Long, John Hood, Brenda Viets, Gail
Horman, and Ken Hughson. The speakers highlighted how MCH’s business and operations have changed
over the past 41 years and also shared stories about their work experiences with Willa. In his
tribute to Willa, CEO Peter Long said, "Think about this—41 years of service in today's business
environment is almost unheard of. Willa has always been there for the company and has done
everything in her power to help the company succeed. She is the spirit of MCH and we wish her the
very best in this next chapter of her life."

Are you a marketer who enjoys breaking the rules? If so, you'll enjoy a new white
paper authored by John M. Coe, President of the Sales & Marketing Institute. Coe writes, "To
get your share of this market, you have to approach it differently than the traditional B2B market.
Back in the 1980s when I entered the direct marketing business, Bob Stone, one of the legendary
direct marketing lions said to me—'Learn all the rules first, and then try to break them.' We know
the rules in B2B and they need to be bent for B2i and then broken!" Coe provides B2B marketers with
many tips that can be implemented immediately to achieve greater success in marketing to
institutions.
