"We are not a mighty, small company..... We
are a small, but MIGHTY, Company!" says Mr.
Smith. "Our company has remained small
because we recognize that there is a huge
demand for production companies that will
service the client with a smaller budget. In the
20 plus years I've been in the meeting and
event industry, I have noticed a disturbing
trend: f you have a small budget you are
"This is where we stand out from the crowd.
We can achieve this by remaining a small,
hands on, person to person, face to face
production company. When you hire Smoky
Mountain Audio Visual or MiJe Event
Productions, you are not client number 340 out
of 500. You are our ONLY client!" Mr. Smith

adds, " When I used to work for one of the largest event producers in the world , I got tired of
having to explain to the client why the exceptional service he received yesterday is not the
same today. I would have to explain why the equipment they need is not avaliable until after
5:00 because it's in use at another show! With that lasting negative impression still in mind, I
vowed to never treat our clients that way. Even if that meant that we have to do ONE CLIENT
AT A TIME!"
