HSMAI Presents Sourcebook For Meeting Planners 2008
January 17, 2008
In cooperation with Ascend Media, the Hospitality Sales & Marketing Association International (HSMA—www.hsmai.org) has prepared HSMAI's Sourcebook for Meeting Planners 2008, featuring articles from 10 of the educational seminars that were presented during HSMAI's Affordable Meetings 2007 shows in Washington, D.C., Chicago, and San Jose, Calif. The summaries are based on insight from expert speakers who shared their thoughts and ideas for generating more profitable and productive meetings, according to an association release.
The articles cover vital and fundamental topics for meeting planners such as: Planning Green: Striving for Sustainability; Mastering Memory: An Essential for Meeting Planners; Webinars and Webcasts: Powerful Outreach Tools for Education and Information; Marketing Your Events; and Igniting the Creative Spark Within You.
The sourcebook also features a "Focus On" section that covers pertinent information for planners as they research venues for upcoming events, such as transportation, airports, city population, average temperatures and rainfall, number of hotels and hotel rooms and area attractions.
In addition, the sourcebook contains a listing of a variety of meeting facilities, convention and visitors bureaus, and an impressive assortment of other meeting products and services. The listings are arranged alphabetically by city, state or region and include descriptions, addresses, telephone numbers, fax numbers, e-mail addresses, and website listings.
