Greetings! An official ‘Happy New Year’ to those I haven’t connected with yet.
I’m personally very excited about 2018 and all the opportunity it represents. Coming up off an absolutely incredible 2017, it seems 2018 has some big shoes to fill – and I have no doubt we are up to the challenge!
Here’s a recap of 2017:
Sourcing Lead Volume increased by almost 20%. Great appreciation and gratitude go to our dedicated Sourcing Team, who rocked the increase in volume – with smiles on their faces, and smoke coming off their keyboards.
Top Sourced Destinations for the year:
1. Atlanta
2. Chicago
3. Phoenix/Scottsdale
4. San Diego
5. Dallas
40% of our volume was sourced in the year, for the year – a similar trend from 2017, so hotels with short-term availability (and great deals!) should connect with us. info@hpnglobal.com
30% of all RFPs sourced were considered short-term (within 90 days of arrival).
HPN Global Partner Conference News:
Our 2017 hosts, The San Francisco Marriott Marquis and San Francisco Travel, knocked our socks off. We had overwhelming feedback on the success of the conference, and greatly appreciate San Francisco Travel for ordering up the right temperatures.
New for 2017, based on the changing dynamics of the world, HPN Global showed our commitment to attendee safety, by adding Conference Emergency Preparedness in partnership with ECI: Emergency Concierge International https://emergencyconcierge.net/.
