Why Me?
After nearly 20 yrs in Hotel Sales & Operations, I can assure you my work ethic
and integrity is of the highest caliber…and Meeting Alliance is where I
belong!
Why Meeting Alliance?
11 years young, its reputation and accomplishments far surpass the other
companies in our “space”. We care tremendously about our Service to our
clients…we are Fair, Smart, Experienced, (and downright fun to partner
with)! We drive Value and believe all relationships need attention to be long-
term…simple but powerful philosophies that have been the backbone of our
success!
Why Now?
People, I dare say, all of us, are tasked with more & more each day…sometimes
there just isn’t enough time! Our partnership immediately increases
efficiencies, minimizes operating costs (our Sourcing service is FREE! And you get
a TEAM of some of the most tremendous, experienced professionals in the
business!), and mitigates risk.
What can I help make a little bit more EZ for you?
