ABOUT THE EVENT

THE SELECTION PROCESS

Advisors in attendance represent every consortium, host, independent and unaffiliated model. Attendees also have significant sphere of influence within their host and consortia organizations.

GAUGING ROI

These stories represent just some of the business conducted as a direct result of attending GTM.

“In the first week after the event, I sold suppliers I'd never sold before. I sold two Oceania penthouse cabins, a last minute Hilton All-Inclusive trip, a 50-person school group to NYC through Goway… and I’m just getting started!” - Lisa Redding Saint, Imagine Travel

“The most surprising result of my GTM experience was my meeting with Michael Gelber of IWorld of Travel. A short 6-minute meeting led to a dinner invite, which led to me chartering the 38 pax Adriatic King in Croatia, and SELLING IT OUT in 13 days.” -Trisha Rathke, VIP Travel Designs

Since attending GTM, I have booked 3 trips for over $40k with Journese and more than $55k with Kensington, all because I met with these wonderful suppliers at the event.” -Jesse Morris, We Book Travel LLC
