Services
Linwood Group Meetings offers services that save our clients' time and money. Our clients tell us that the experience and professionalism we bring to their conference or event is appreciated by their executives and attendees, as well as their vendors.
The meetings industry is in a seller's market. Event expenses have increased 40% to 70%, contracts are more complicated, space availability is tight. We anticipate this will continue well into 2025. Specific hotel chains have announced they plan to permanently reduce staff and have started charging unexpected fees. We're finding the same with other vendors as well. With the reduction of knowledgeable hotel and vendor staff, increased expenses, and complicated contracts, conference owners need an experienced meeting planner to guide them through the site selection, contract negotiation, budget management, logistics planning, and onsite management of their programs.
Linwood Group Meetings excels at the management, planning, and logistics of:
- City and Venue Site Selection
- Contract Negotiations
- Budget Management
- Attendee Registration
- Vendor Liaison
- Food & Beverage
- VIP & Speaker Management
- Sponsorship Programs: Development and Management
