Event Guidelines/ Tips and Tricks
To make this effective and efficient we are listing the following guidelines to ensure that it is a successful day for all.
General Information:
Hoteliers that will be attending are a collective group of our membership, guaranteeing particular members is not available for the event. If there is a member that you want to speak with the in particular there will be time at the end of the event to network. We would suggest the acceptable attire as business.
- The meetings are 3 minutes in length; this time is best used by introducing yourself, accepting a business card and let the GPHA member know you will follow up later.
- Our host accommodates a table for each property. Vendor representatives will move together and only two representatives per company can participate in the event.
- There will a host who will be the timer and call the event. There will also be event staff present on the event floor to direct you and to keep the event moving. We would like to RESPECT others’ time with members and not have anyone go over the 3 minute allotted time or walking around during their respective meeting time. There will be time at the end of the event for more networking.
- Do your homework, the members hear pitches all the time; let them know what you can do for their property and not ask them what they need.
- This is not the time to try to make a sale; it is a time to make a connection. Relationships take time and this event is a wonderful opportunity to meet members.
- Remember to bring your business cards.
- When you arrive please check in with our host at the registration desk. The Event Staff will show you to your table. At the start of the event, allied members will rotate from table to table; the hoteliers will remain at their table.
- Once the Speed Networking has completed and all participants have had the opportunity to meet each other – you are welcome to stay and mingle.
