Statistics

These are additional opportunities for local Newport News hotels, restaurants and attractions to talk directly with travel counselors and professionals that recommend accommodations and things to do in our fine city. It is an economical way to extend your sales budgets and reach some of the markets that each of us try to achieve individually. We have found that the AAA offices and welcome centers are genuinely interested in what we have to say as a collective team. The bottom line is that we get to see the people who help steer business to Newport News, so please consider joining a sales mission. If you have anyone on your staff that would be interested in this opportunity please forward this message to them. The only expense that you would have with these opportunities is the cost of lunch and any collateral and giveaways you would be handing out . Space is limited so it will be the first to respond that will attend.

Helpful Hints:

  • It is a good idea to wear your logoed wear and a nametag if you have it. The team will be in the van the whole day so comfortable clothes and shoes are a plus.
  • We will also stop for a quick lunch which is the only expense you would have for this mission. Allocate $10-$15 for the meal.
  • Plan on bringing a small give away and some brochures made up in a bag for each stop.
  • We also bring a box of chocolate chip cookies/sweets for each branch.
