Why Attendees Love It
Centralized Information:
Providing all pertinent information in one easy place is a key benefit for attendees. Online housing displays all participating hotels together and only presents available inventory for purchase over the attendees' preferred dates.
24/7 System Access:
Online housing provides the ability for an attendee to not only make a reservation when it’s convenient for them, but also permits them to make changes to reservations any time, day or night.
Flexible Reservations:
VIPs, sports teams, event staff, and more can easily create reservations and access exclusive inventory by using a group code for their specific sub-block.
Real Time Inventory:
Hotel inventory is updated in real time so that there’s never any doubt about availability.
Personal Concierge:
The Omaha CVB offers a personal concierge service to answer questions regarding housing for attendees. All questions will be answered within 24 hours.
Why Planners Love It
Established Relationships:
Utilize the relationship the Omaha CVB has with area hotels to negotiate all hotel contracts and concessions. This includes all hotels in and outside Douglas County.
Control Over Rebates & Commissions:
Online housing provides in-depth commission and rebate information, in real time. No longer rely on hotels for this information.
Dedicated Planner Website:
Keep tabs on every aspect of your event. Meetingmax provides planners their own control panel, accessible 24/7 from any device with internet access.
Real-Time Reports:
Pull in-depth reports from the system and use this data to prove your ROI and plan effectively for future events.
Block Manipulation:
By managing your events through online housing, you can force sales at properties that have underachieved, and close out hotels that have met commitments.
Revenue Opportunities:
Ability for your group to earn additional revenue by offering advertising on the housing website to potential sponsors.
