Convention Center

The Cvent Supplier Network offers a number of features that benefit both planners and suppliers as they source and book event business. Take, for example, a supplier's ability to include local attractions or "Places of Interest" to its profile. Cvent offers a Places of Interest page within each complimentary supplier listing on the Cvent Supplier Network. This addition not only adds an extra page to the supplier profile, it also provides some valuable information to Cvent meeting planners.

Did you ever get an RFP and under the "decision factors" section see "location"? The placement of a property can have a big impact on event venue selection. So why shouldn't suppliers go ahead and market a great locale from the beginning? Are you close to the convention center or airport? Maybe you have great shopping close by or even a theater district. These attractions can sometimes be the tipping point for winning big business. Take some time and talk about the convenience that the location of your property can offer to a planner.

Suppliers can also use this page to promote the area in general. When planners consider several meeting destinations, the local attractions advertised by each venue can really help in the decision-making process. Is the area a beach or a golf destination? Are there any historic or national sites close by? These descriptions can help planners make an informed decision.

Create a Places of Interest page on your supplier profile! It will help to enhance your offering, and provide much-needed details to planners.
