VISIT FLORIDA Meetings & Conventions Research Project
VISIT FLORIDA is looking for your input to determine the data they need to collect which would be beneficial to support their sales and marketing efforts in the Meetings and Conventions environment. Please send any questions, ideas, concerns or directions to Leslie Mathews so we can forward it to the VISIT FLORIDA Meetings Manager. Your feedback will be reviewed by the sales & research departments and will assist in giving them a good idea on what they need to focus on. Your assistance in this project is very much appreciated and valuable!
