{The 411 - Site Selection}
Current Events, Inc. is a one-stop shop for hotel site selection worldwide, helping corporations, associations and non-profits manage this time-consuming process – all for FREE! We believe we're in a class of our own, and here's why:
We Have No Limitations
Unlike other third-party companies, we can recommend and source any hotel (or cruise!) in the world for your meetings and events. Hotels don’t pay us to be a member, so we’re not bound by a limited list of properties. The world is our oyster, and we’ll find you a pearl! We’re 100% unbiased and strictly about YOU, customizing our services to meet your needs.
We Save You Time...
We know you probably have more responsibilities now than ever. So go ahead and check off “Venue Search” on your task list. We’ve got it handled! Send us your RFP, and voila! - you’ll receive a comprehensive quote recap detailing the venues that meet your specifications. How soon? As soon as you need it! That’s the gist of it, but feel free to learn more about how the process works.
...AND Money
Not only do we save you time, we also help your bottom line. Our long history with industry suppliers and sales contacts, plus the fact that we are bringing in business from many companies, gives us tremendous leverage and allows us to secure you and your guests the best properties and rates possible.
Did We Mention Our Service is FREE?
Yes, it’s true! We earn a commission – from the hotels – based on the number of rooms actualized in your room block, so you will never see an invoice from us. Now, you might be asking yourself, “Wouldn’t it then make sense for you to book the highest rate possible so you make more money?” Absolutely not. We’re not looking for a way to make some quick cash. We want to build a long-standing relationship with our clients, so we want you to be 100% happy.
Some included services: research all appropriate hotels or cruise lines, negotiate rates, provide area info, create comprehensive quote recap on findings, arrange site inspections, assist with contract, recommend DMCs, provide access to unbiased hotel and cruise reviews from Star Service Online.
We Spread the Love -
Maintaining Your Existing Relationships
Fear not, just because you go through Current Events, Inc. doesn’t mean you’ll compromise the relationships you have with your own hotel sales contacts. We hate break-ups. In fact, the more (strong relationships) the merrier! It only helps our cause. So we’d be more than happy to go through your personal hotel contacts and/or loop in another third-party vendor. That way, everyone gets credit.
Why is it more advantageous to go through us, instead of going directly through your hotel sales contacts? Because, while you might get a good rate on your own, we can get you an even better rate since we’re bringing the hotels business from multiple companies. Think of us as having that special membership at Costco and, thus, getting spectacular bulk prices. Plus, we've been doing this forever!
Our Business Style is Unmatched
We pride ourselves on providing buttoned-up service but with a fun, relaxed attitude. We love to laugh while we work, and we want you to laugh with us! We want you to feel comfortable. After all, we want to build solid relationships, not just “business” ones.
So kick off your heels or loosen your tie, and sit back and relax while we help find and book your next venue!
