Unconvention 2013 New Session Announcement

We are pleased to announce another session for the 2013 Unconvention...

Building the Better Housing Prospect

Led by Dan O'Neill, Vice President of Strategy and Sales 

for the Bloomington, MN CVB

Join Dan O’Neill, Vice President of Strategy and Sales for the Bloomington Convention Bureau, as he takes you on a comprehensive journey through sourcing, analyzing and budgeting for new housing groups. The Bloomington, Minnesota CVB has offered housing services for a number of years. Starting with a broad range of groups differing in size and market type, it didn't take long for them to realize that not all housing groups are profitable housing groups. Over the past year the bureau has adjusted its focus and is now laser clear on what makes a group a good housing candidate.

This session will include:

• Sales Cycle Analysis for Online Housing
• Marketing Strategies to Support Clients
• Financial Sharing Strategies
• Case Study
• Q&A and open sharing among the group
