Do you enlist a
convention and visitors
bureau for help in
planning your meetings?
“We have in the past for conventions in
Orlando and New Orleans. They were superb.”
Norlyn Aitcheson, CMP
Manager, U.S. Events and Motivation
Avon Products Inc.

“Yes. CVB personnel are usually very
well connected and able to assist you by matching the meeting space
needed with the right venue.”
Maria Deibert
Corporate Meeting Planner
Taco Cabana
San Antonio, Texas
“We use a CVB when we’ve never held a
conference in that particular city. They’re a fantastic reference
point to expedite venue requests on our behalf and other services
such as transportation requirements and registration. Most services
are free.”
Francine Miller, CMP
Events Manager
The Canadian Institute
Toronto, Ontario
“Yes we do. We try to use them for our
registration and door-monitor staffing needs.”
