I have been in the Hospitality Industry for over 30 years.  I have a unique perspective on sourcing vacation location and deals because I have worked on both sides of the industry.  I was Director of Sales at various hotels, meeting planners and sourcing manager with large Travel Management Companies.  I have first-hand knowledge of all the reasons why hotels make pricing decisions.  As a result, I can better anticipate what could go wrong at any stage in the life cycle of a vacation/meetings - and how to prevent it from happening.
