A land-based venue might charge extra for meeting rooms, floral arrangements, audiovisual equipment, but it's all included on a cruise.
Cruises are 10 to 30 percent less than hotels for meetings...Plus you don't have to supply entertainment. Meals are also included in the cruise price. Clients don't have to worry about how much every little thing is going to cost.
Conventions on a cruise ship promote more camaraderie ship, than land-based venues where participants scatter during free time. People have more time together to share best practices, ideas and get to know each other better and build relationships.
Cruise ships also make it easy to reserve 1,000 or more rooms for large meetings and conventions. Not many hotels can give you that.
Today's ships offer a variety of recreational options that can also serve as team building exercises, from climbing equipment, basketball courts and thrill rides to pools, casinos, karaoke and nightclubs, as well as in-port excursions like cultural tours or nature walks.
Clients have a wide variety of ships, number of days and destinations.
The cruise industry has made great technological strides and most cruise ships offer a myriad of Wi-Fi, onboard texting and data options.
There are literally hundreds of thousands of National Associations...
holding business meetings, sales meetings and conventions each year.
The one thing ALL these Associations are all looking for is...
a new place to hold their meetings and conventions that is cost effective.
All you have to do...
is let them know, you have that answer.
Google... "National Associations" and start prospecting for groups...
There's GOLD in them there Groups : -)
