Meeting venues are your biggest expense and are often the most negotiable. Yet, venue sales managers are far better at negotiation than planners.

Learning Objectives:
- Describe five things you can do to make your event more valuable to a venue that don’t cost you anything and explain why they are of value to the venue.
- Negotiate the cost of in-house vendor expenses such as audio visual and electrical.
- Use supply and demand dynamics in your favor as well as identify types of venues that are not subject to demand, leveraging those opportunities to your advantage.
