    4. NTA Convention Proposed Format NTA Appointments ROI Formula: Quantity + Quality = More Business

    5. NTA Convention Proposed Format Why change? You’ve asked for it—NTA is listening.

    6. NTA Convention Proposed Format • Why change? • Many NTA tour companies don’t attend convention because … • It’s the wrong time of year • They “don’t do business that way” • More operators requesting “open books” • More operators coming as “non- participants”

    7. NTA Convention Proposed Format • NTA operators represent: • Domestic group travel • Independent travel • International inbound business • Global travel • Affinity, niche and special interest travel • Adventure travel • Incentive travel, meetings and events

    8. NTA Convention Proposed Format • They sell to: • Students/youth • Young adults • Baby boomers • Seniors • Gays, lesbians and heterosexuals • Americans, Canadians • Customers from various nationalities

    9. NTA Convention Proposed Format Key to Tour Operator Packaging:The Destination

    10. NTA Convention Proposed Format • Operators package and schedule appointments by destination • Suppliers and DMOs in pavilions by state, province or country

    11. NTA Convention Proposed Format

    12. NTA Convention Proposed Format • NTA level playing field: only banner stands or banners in booths • Sponsors (Silver level or above) could still decorate • Operator appointments scheduled consecutively within destinations. • Suggesting 15-minute appointments for more meaningful business • Operators also have regional “shopping” time

    13. NTA Convention Proposed Format • Jump Start Session • Suppliers and DMOs preschedule “quick meetings” with operators • “Speed dating” exchange of business cards, make appointments for later • Early opportunity for suppliers and DMOs to secure operator appointments.

    14. NTA Convention Proposed Format • Benefits • Average of 30 appointments with the Jump Start Session and longer appointments • Each day ends with a “shopping” reception on the floor
