Some Thoughts on Travel Incentives September 22, 2008
By James Feldman
Let's face it: We are involved in an industry that makes a difference. It is a radically changing world and incentives often provide the catalyst for employee retention, customer acquisition, products sales, and safety in the workplace. That's why you need to attend our "quick impact" incentive travel training program to be held on Tuesday at 1:30PM.
This powerful training provides attendees with more information, in one place, at one time with a minimal investment. Experts from Marriott, Maritz, Hyatt, Celebrity Cruises, Avis, Travel Incentives On Line, Incentive Travelers Cheque, and more, will all provide high performance guidelines for achieving your business objectives. Sponsored by the IMA Incentive Travel SIG, we will focus on hard results for increased people performance using travel incentives.
Using hard facts and powerful logic, this seminar will deliver information that can be used by both the DIY client and the reseller. The workshop will show how incentives don't cost money but actually contribute to the bottom line.
It will position managers to create incentive programs that target the right audience with the right rewards.
It will showcase how to find the new emerging clients that want to use incentive travel.
It will provide networking opportunities with others in the same industry facing the same 'shifts' in business economics.
If you want to ALIGN your efforts with your target audience, if you want to ADAPT to new challenges and increase your competencies, if you need to ADD VALUE to the end results…
