Buyer Testimonials
 

Incentive Travel Exchange's format allows me to maximize my time meeting with suppliers. I get to network with suppliers I currently have business booked with but also get to meet with those that I know little about, thus increasing my destination knowledge. It is definitely the best event for a buyer to attend.
Jennifer Ludwig, Travel Buyer, Maxvantage

I found Incentive Travel Exchange to be extremely productive, educational and a perfect event to strategize with our supplier partners.  The structured appointments, food and beverage events, optional hotel and venue tours offered at Incentive Travel Exchange were an excellent use of time in the high use destination of Las Vegas.
Bruce Schiemo, Division Vice President and Director of Travel Purchasing, BI | Travel Purchasing

I highly recommend the Incentive Travel Exchange for any buyer looking to make the most of a few days out of the office. This event gives you the chance to meet and connect with numerous suppliers on a one-on-one basis and get updates on areas in all corners of the world. I have met with a number of suppliers I was unfamiliar with previously and came away with some great new contacts.
Jennifer Rohne, Director of Purchasing, Advantage Performance Network

Incentive Travel Exchange is an intimate event, affording the opportunity to interact with high quality suppliers and buyers in a one on one situation. I would highly recommend this to both incentive buyers and suppliers looking to get quality time with qualified buyers.
Sarah Brady, Senior Travel Buyer, Creative Group, Inc.

Thanks for the outstanding show this year! I really did feel that it was very worthwhile meeting with the vendors and exploring new options for my incentive clients. The program was outstanding and everything ran very smoothly.
Jackie Fox, Senior Sales Executive, Morris Meetings & Incentives

In our jobs, we are all asked to do more with less and the time spent at this event is well worth the time out of the office.  I enjoy the appointment based format.  The time we spend with each vendor is quality time.
Natalie Koyama, Senior Buyer, Genesis Creative Group

We found Incentive Travel Exchange very useful, made great contacts and received great information!  
Alexis Kereluk, Program Planner, PR1ME, Extraordinary Experiences

Unlike other trade shows where people mill around the floor, the individual meetings at Incentive Travel Exchange are targeted, educational and extremely productive. Because meetings are mandatory, only serious buyers attend which naturally attract only the best vendors.  Each year I come away with a new creative travel solution for our portfolio and although I am definitely worn out after the event I feel rewarded for my efforts.
Mike Farmer, Vice President of Group Travel Sales, Meridian Enterprises Corporation

Thank you for a wonderful experience. The organization and flow of the show was perfect again! I really got a lot from meetings and networking!
Ron Hersh, President, World of Travel

I just wanted to thank you for a great experience at Incentive Travel Exchange.  This is one of a very few events that really utilizes time well – good mix of business and networking in great environments. 
Mimi Almeida | President, All Performance Associates, LLC

I just wanted to give you and the staff a huge “shout out” for a tremendously successful event!  The event surpassed my expectations both in the quality of suppliers and the quantity of work accomplished.  Never has a week in Vegas been more successful for me and my company! 
Stephanie Sorrells, Experience Creator, Vibrant Travel Solutions

Meeting face to face with many individuals I have talked to on the phone and electronically will make a positive impact on negotiations. The information that was shared about different venues and countries was very valuable.
Su Eells, Vice President, TenDot Corporate Travel

Having the ability to sit down with suppliers and ask specific questions, with specific clients in mind, is invaluable.  My wish is that I can do business with all of them!
Linnie Baynham, Owner, More Than Meetings, Inc.

Great Event!  I am so glad I attended and plan to put it on my calendar as a must for 2011.
Dianne Heffernan, Director of Meetings & Incentives, Austin Meeting Services

I find the Incentive Travel Exchange the number one event in our industry.  The format is one of a kind, and well worth a two day investment of my time.
Denean Perry, Manager of Corporate Events, BMC Software

I was extremely impressed with the quality of vendors and information at the Incentive Travel Exchange. The event was well-organized, informative and a lot of fun. The Incentive Travel Exchange staff did a fantastic job with all of the details. I will definitely utilize the new contacts I made for future programs.
Bridget Tursi, Product Development Specialist, Ambassadair Groups and Incentives

Incentive Travel Exchange provides suppliers and buyers with the best possible format of one-to-one meetings with quality suppliers and well qualified buyers. The condensed time schedule maximizes everyone's investment of time and expense.  We will produce more from this event than any other supplier/buyer conference.
William Sellmer, President, SMI Travel

Incentive Travel Exchange's concept of one-to-one appointment based meetings is incredible!  Not only do we get to work with the Suppliers during our 15 min meetings but we also get to network with them at all other functions.  When you are able to be with suppliers in a social setting you are able to form relationships and those are the suppliers we will continue to do business with.
Craig Howard, Vice President of National Sales, Expo Incentives

Not only did the staff at the Incentive Travel Exchange do a terrific job qualifying both buyers and suppliers, they created a productive environment onsite. The appointment format was an excellent use of my time out of the office. I accomplished more than expected and now have new resources for procurement of hotels, services and premiums. Thank you very much for making my job easier.
Sharyn Outtrim, Vice President of Strategic Events, Primesport

The Incentive Travel Exchange is very well managed and provides value to both suppliers and buyers as it creates a unique business environment for strengthening relationships and making new ones in a manageable environment that also has an creative element of networking.
Bob Gilbert, Executive Vice President, HPN Global

Incentive Travel Exchange created a significant problem for me.  Prior to attending, I had my next program narrowed down to 3 cities, but after the event I now have 8 or 10 destinations to consider!  Too many excellent ideas to choose from, but it's a good problem to have!
Ray A. Riley, Executive Vice President & Chief Marketing Officer, Citizens, Inc.

Incentive Travel Exchange is well organized and well executed.  The concept is well thought out and provides a comfortable atmosphere to do business in and supports the building of stronger supplier relationships.
Judy Henrich, Director of Industry Relations, Global Cynergies

Incentive Travel Exchange is a "must attend" event and I love the format. This is much better than a large show where one visits a booth. The environment gives both partners the possibility to talk in a quiet room and discuss business opportunities.
Joost de Meyer, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, First Incentive Travel

This was my first Incentive Travel Exchange and it was great!  I was able to meet more vendors in two days than I would have been able to in three months of work.
KelleeSue Roden, Incentive Program Manager, Stampin’ Up!

The one-on-one appointments in a private setting were so beneficial in learning about product and conducting business on present and future programs.  The contacts I made both with the suppliers through the appointments and with other buyers through the networking events, will be a great resource to help me build my business into the future.  Once again, thank you for the great job and all the effort you put in to make this the premier event for incentive planners.
Caron Lusk, Vice President of Corporate Meetings and Incentives, Crone Travel Professionals

Incentive Travel Exchange allows us to maximize our time out of the office and to create and strength relationship with suppliers we might not otherwise meet. We book business with the suppliers who attend the event.
Debbie Szafran, Business Development Manager, Sutton & Associates

We found Incentive Travel Exchange useful and made great contacts and received great information and, of course, it was great to meet everyone and put some faces to names.
Alexis Kereluk, Program Planner, PR1ME
