arena, and how Sales and KAM/SAM leaders can enable KAMs/SAMs to meet current

STRATEGIC ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION (SAMA) FORMALIZES PARTNERSHIP WITH THE
CONGRUITY GROUP

Dayton, OH, April 3, 2023 – The Congruity Group announced today that they have
formalized a partnership with the premier association for strategic account
management.



“We could not be more excited to partner with SAMA,” said Congruity CEO Betsy
Westhafer. “Throughout my career, I have had exposure to many professional
associations, but I have yet to find one that provides more value, a better
community, and a rich, 60 year history of service to their members. Our two
organizations have incredible synergies with one another, and we intend to
leverage those in a way that adds value to the SAMA community and Congruity
clients around the globe.”

SAMA selected The Congruity Group to build and execute their Strategic Customer
Advisory Board and will launch multiple collaboration initiatives to help B2B
organizations accelerate their success with their strategic accounts. 

“We’ve learned that one of the most important elements of successful, strategic
relationships is the engagement of the senior leadership team with their
clients,” said SAMA President and CEO Denise Freier. “The value of having a
Strategic Customer Advisory Board resolves the missing link of how to keep
strong, executive relations with your significant clients. This will bring
substantial value to the SAMA community.”

Westhafer is a featured speaker at the upcoming SAMA Annual Conference, May
23-25, 2023 in San Diego, California. She will be educating conference
participants on how to move from being perceived as a transactional vendor to
that of a strategic business advisor. Discover the SAMA Annual Conference here.

About SAMA

Founded in 1964, SAMA is a unique nonprofit association with a community of more
than 15,000 worldwide. SAMA offers numerous training, professional development,
and networking events throughout North America, Asia, and Europe each year in
addition to research, publications, and other knowledge resources. To learn
