Exhibitor General Information
Stayed tuned for information about TRAVDEX 2011.
Exhibitors at TRAVDEX® are on a quest. They engage, qualify and sell travel technology solutions and marketing applications. They come to share their products’ features and benefits, meet prospects and clients, pack their sales pipelines, qualify leads, sell and up-sell, and close business.
This enormous marketplace is highly fragmented because of the terrestrial nature of travel. Suppliers and infrastructure operate all over the world, one destination at a time. However, the travel researching, planning, sharing, purchasing and documenting process is digital.
THE PROBLEM?
Selling of travel technology is labor intensive and requires untold training and patience. Furthermore, the amount of time-to-close varies significantly from client to client. Managing travel expenses associated with sales development, Web-based sessions, marketing collateral, appointments, follow-ups, negotiations, etc. are increasingly time-consuming, costly and under productive.
THE SOLUTION?
TRAVDEX the global, comprehensive travel technology trade show, uniquely solves this inefficiency. Exhibitors at TRAVDEX are on a travel technology sales and marketing mission.
