As the TRENZ trade show in Ōtautahi Christchurch approaches in three weeks, we're sharing tips on how to make the most of your time there. We discuss the importance of preparation to ensure a smooth week, using appointment times to build relationships and gain market insights, structuring presentations during appointments, and following up after the event. We're fortunate to have Adele Marsden from New Zealand Educational Tours, and Louise Bilbie and Rachel Wallace from ANZCRO in Australia, joining us to share their memorable experiences with TRENZ appointments and provide tips for standing out with buyers at the trade show.   Timings:   14.28 - Adele Marsden (https://www.nzet.co.nz) 23.31 - Louise Bilbie and Rachel Wallace (https://www.anzcro.com.au)  34.57 - Update on gifts and pack-in details at TRENZ  _____________________________________________________________ If you, or someone you work with has a great tourism story to share, and would like to come onto the show, please get in touch!
