Worth, TX – May 2019 / Newsmaker Alert / CCRA
Travel Commerce Network’s (CCRA) first PowerSolutions LIVE of 2019
connected local Atlanta travel agents with twenty-five industry suppliers
on Friday, April 26th at the Le
Meridien Atlanta Perimeter.
After
the success of PowerSolutions National in February, CCRA wanted to continue
the focus on education and trainings for PowerSolutions attendees. Having
surveyed agents over the years, CCRA has learned education is the number
one component travel agents look for when they attend CCRA
PowerSolutions events.
“This
is our third time back in Atlanta and it continues to grow each time,”
said Peter E. Pincus, CCRA’s Chief Commercial Officer, “After four years
of events including our National conference, we have retooled PowerSolutions
by adding a larger focus on education and trainings.” Pincus continued,
“CCRA listens to the agents in our community and we pride ourselves on
being able to deliver quality events based on their needs.”

The
educational components consisted of an in-depth look at CCRA’s new agent-only
hotel booking engine TripSet.com,
followed by marketing sessions with Tammy
Levent, founder, and CEO of T.A.S.K and Jenn Earley, founder of Amplified
Marketing Services, a marketing agency focused on helping small businesses.
A keynote
from the Israel Ministry of Tourism
wrapped up the educational portion of the event, who shared with agents
how to sell a destination that travelers are hesitant about in today’s
political climate. The audience then moved to the roundtable sessions where
they spent an intimate 10-minute session with each of the gold suppliers
in attendance where both agents and suppliers could focus on networking.
The evening concluded with a lively trade show floor that included food,
drinks, and prizes.
The
next PowerSolutions LIVE is scheduled for June 12th and will be taking
place at the New York Marriott Marquis in New York City: www.eventbrite.com/e/ccra-powersolutions-new-york-city-tickets-56497890712
