American Marketing Group has announced it will hold two Business-Building Bootcamps this fall, September 23–24 at Lowes Pacific Resort in Orlando and October 14–15 at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas. The intensive hands-on workshops are open to Travelsavers licensees and NEST home-based agents in the US, and will help them “pump up their profits” and create healthier businesses.
Head trainer Nolan Burris will guide the two-day programs. Well-known in the travel industry as a motivational speaker and author, Burris is also a former travel agent and Founder & Chief Visioneer of Future Proof Travel Solutions. The core training sessions at the Business-Building Bootcamps—called “Visioneering and the Four Corners of Business”—will provide critical information and interactive exercises in the essential business arenas of Sales and Marketing, Finance, Operations, and Technology.
In the sessions, agents will be involved completing a workbook that will help them define the visions for their businesses and then turn them into action plans that they can implement when they return to their offices. Another key component in the Bootcamps is a preferred supplier showcase. A mini trade show will take place onsite, giving attendees the opportunity to discuss product offerings, marketing and sales tactics, and vendor support with suppliers.
“We’re so excited about our Business-Building Bootcamps because they’re based 100 percent on what our agencies have told us is most important to them in running their businesses,” said Kathryn Mazza-Burney, President of NEST and Executive Vice President of Sales and Service for Travelsavers.
“With our sponsoring suppliers, we’ll help our agencies assess their businesses and design actionable plans to strengthen operations. When the events end, the real work begins, and our Business Development Managers will continue to work with our licensees to implement their new plans in a way that positively impacts their bottom line,” Mazza-Burney added.
Travelsavers and NEST are owned by American Marketing Group, Inc., the parent company of 18 leading travel brands worldwide.
