The OASIS meeting will take place Nov. 4 & 5, 2014 at The New Tropicana. “Our event was held at this hotel last year and our agents loved it!” stated OASIS Vice President of Business Development Kelly Bergin. “The 200 million dollars of renovation has made this hotel a gem. It is small with excellent dining venues and the sleeping rooms are convenient to the conference area. You don’t feel like you are trying out for the track team to get to a meeting.”
“OASIS has added an extra day to our annual Get-Together because we were getting many requests for additional training in addition to supplier information” Bergin added. The extra day will include training on the OASIS proprietary cruise booking system, the Client-for-Life marketing program, best practices, and Q&As.
The OASIS meeting immediately precedes Signature Travel Network’s Sales Meeting and Tradeshow which is across the street at the MGM Grand. Combining the two events gives agents maximum exposure to training and networking. Both events are free to attend. “We want as many agents as possible to attend which is why we do not charge for these events. And this is the perfect time of year to attend these meetings” Bergin said. “It helps set the stage for the next year’s selling season which is right around the corner. Agents return home with new enthusiasm and ideas” Special rates at each hotel are available for participating agents.
This year’s OASIS meeting will include OASIS Agent reward announcements; CLIA’s Dwain Wall will explain the new membership plans; Catherine Heeg will drop in to talk about social media marketing; supplier workshops; a big announcement about website development and a Hawaii Visitors & Convention Bureau luncheon.
Highlights of the Signature meeting that OASIS Agents will be able to take advantage of include the new technology pavilion, the Diana Nyad (Cuba to Florida swimmer) keynote speech, and Mega prize drawings.
