CUSTOMER STORIES

See how Meetings Expert can be a trusted partner and create real results:

Executive Assistant,

Real Estate Services

“The 28-point addendum to the hotel contract has been a real money-saver for us this past year.”

“Unfortunately, we've had to change locations for a couple of our meetings and had to cancel existing contracts. The addendum waives the F&B cancellation charges up to a certain date, and this has saved us a considerable amount of money. This has been a very good relationship for us!”

“Meetings Expert provided personalized service in a great way.”

Corporate Travel Manager,

Insurance Industry

“The representative has made my life a breeze in working with local partners and hotels, all while saving my company money. Which makes me look great.”
