7 reasons why every event manager should take a FAM TRIP to Poland:
1. IMPROVE YOUR PORTFOLIO
It’s important each year to stand out from your competitors by offering something new. Poland Poland is a large and diverse country and has a lot to offer! Do you know that Poland moves up in the 2022 ICCA ranking? At the end of May, the International Congress and Convention Association (ICCA) published the latest ICCA Ranking Report, which presents data on the countries and cities in which the association organises the most events. In this year’s ranking, Poland came in 18th globally, having hosted 158 meetings. Poland thanks to its extensive infrastructure, its central location and its intellectual potential remains the only country of the Visegrad Group to be ranked in the top twenty. What contributed to this result is the well-known congress cities, or the so-called first choices (Warsaw Kraków), as well as the second (Poznań, Gdańsk, Wrocław) and third (Łódź, Katowice).
2. GET A QUICK OVERVIEW
Time-consuming research is a thing of the past. During a two or three day Fam Trip, you can discover the destination first hand and determine which events it would be ideal for – and doing this while being there. Now you just have to let this information soak in and decide which of your customers would be interested in this travel destination. This saves time while also giving you a specific advantage over competitors.
3. EXPERIENCE THE DESTINATION FROM A CUSTOMER PERSPECTIVE
A successful event is more than just the sum of its parts. In a professional Fam Trip, you’ll learn not only about the destination, but also become familiar with all the factors that are essential for making an event a success. These include flight options, opportunities for brand communication, transfers, local activities, the hotel and the conference facilities. This is the only way to experience the destination from a customer perspective. And this is the best way to evaluate which services you want to use for your event.
4. GET AHEAD WITH FIRST-HAND REPORTS OF YOUR EXPERIENCES
Taking part in a Fam Trip means you don’t just read about the optional activities, you experience them with all your senses!
5. BENEFIT FROM VALUABLE CONTACTS WITH LOCAL PARTNERS
If you want to arrange unforgettable events, you need the right local partner. Internet research can quickly provide this but cannot replace personal networking. Trust mainly comes from successfully sharing experiences. This is the best basis for long-term cooperation and gives more weight when giving customers recommendations.
6. GAIN PARTNERS THROUGH SUCCESSFUL NETWORKING
Fam Trips are about much more than just discovering a destination. They are also about making new contacts, learning from other experts, building new relationships. The small group size allows detailed discussions and creates a pleasant atmosphere, which often results in long-term collaborations.
7. IMPRESS WITH BETTER PITCHES
Fam Trips are an ideal opportunity to create authentic promotional material, whether photos, videos or first-hand reports. There’s no doubt about it: those who have been there in person are best placed to present exceptional pitches.
