Top 5 Reasons to Use a CVB What are you waiting for?
Save time. - Instead of spending hours or even days researching, calling and emailing several different venues within the desti- nation of choice, you can fire off a single inquiry to a CVB and get the information you need in an expeditious amount of time. CVBs will often gather bids from qualified area facilities and present them to planners, saving the effort of researching facilities that might turn out to be inadequate for the meeting or event.
Save money. - CVBs offer a wide array of services that are complimentary for planners, such as meeting or event promotion, onsite registration assistance, printing of attendee nametags or providing welcome materials. In addition, CVB staff members can leverage their knowledge and business relationships to get you deals on space and sleeping rooms.
1. 2.
Get in the know. - CVB staff members know their destination’s hotels and meeting facilities. They know what other groups will be in town and when. They know the local peak and off-peak times. By working with a CVB, you’ll have an insider’s perspective on the best time to book your meeting or event and the best tools with which to negotiate.
Find the right site. - With a single phone call, you can determine whether the right site for your group is available in any given destination. If you need state-of-the-art convention space for 2,000 attendees or a non-traditional hole in the wall for 20 at- tendees, a CVB can not only tell you if the space exists, but also enlighten you as to special venues that might not even normally host groups, such as museums, art galleries or other unique facilities.
3. 4.
Get it all. - The work of a CVB is not just about booking meeting space and hotel room nights for your group. CVB staff members can also help you make informed decisions on the best dining spots, popular or off-the-beaten-path activities and entertainment, ongoing events and festivals and many other area attributes. Work with a CVB and get the best of the whole destination.
