Be Where the Leaders Are: The Summit '25

September 5, 2025

November 10–12 at The St. Regis Longboat Key Resort 

This November 10-12, Tribute Technology and MKJ Marketing professionals together to connect with others, learn from experts, and recharge with others, learn from experts, and recharge in a setting that’s been called “nothing short of exceptional.” 


We’ll dig into the issues that matter most right now: 


  • What AI actually means for funeral service (beyond the headlines) 
  • What today’s families expect — and how to meet them where they are 
  • Pricing strategies that make sense for your market and your mission 
  • Smarter hiring, training, and retention 
  • How to streamline operations and plan for the future 


And it all takes place at The St. Regis Longboat Key — a luxury beachfront resort where you can slow down, think clearly, and make meaningful connections. 


Travel is easy with flights into Sarasota and other nearby airports, followed by a short drive to the resort. 


Featured Guest Speaker 


Every strong business has one thing in common: culture. The kind of workplace where people actually want to show up. 


This year, we’re excited to welcome Jamie Naughton Henriod, former Chief of Staff at Zappos, as our featured speaker. Zappos became one of the most admired brands in the country for its people-first approach — and Jamie helped shape that culture from the inside. 


She’ll share what worked, what didn’t, and how you can apply the same ideas to build teams that stick — and businesses that thrive.
