The article I want to comment today deals with the MICE (ie Meeting, Incentives, Conferences, Exhibitions). I have already worked as an event coordinator, and I love the event management within a Hotel. But this market is almost saturated and suffer from a big lack of originality...
This article gives good advices to make meetings and incentives more attractive for the final client. It explains what meeting planners wants, and what works best to enhance the meeting business, for instance how to create a "meeting package", or how to add a little bit of fun into a boring meeting day!
This article gives also tips concerning the competition, and how to manage it, but also how to generate loyalty with the partners!
The author is convinced that the crisis is Over, and the MICE business will be increasing over 2011, so the moral is, be different, original, and offer the event planners the best they can have from you!
It's very interesting to work for banquets in hotels because that learned you how to deal with rooms, clients, and competitors! Paris is a place very hard for meetings, you must diversificate your offer and always apply for new clients. In fact it is a very important revenu in a hotel but could be also a source of debt.
RépondreSupprimerThis article is interesting because it highlights the importance of the banqueting service in a hotel. This service has many challenges such as to attract customers with an attractive meeting package for example; to get a good reputation despite the competition...Everyday, this service need to innovate, to propose different offers in order to attract many different types of clients, to respond at many different demands. For the banqueting service, it is primordial to be different, original and innovate in its offers.
