Make the specialist need clear
Identify the regions, travel style and kind of partner you need before using the network. For example, separate a small-group itinerary enquiry from a hotel contracting brief. This gives a prospective contact enough detail to decide whether the opportunity fits its business.
Verify the proposed service
Ask the contracting supplier to confirm the itinerary, inclusions, cancellation conditions and payment terms. Save those answers with the proposal. Association membership can help you find a contact, while the written offer gives you the details needed to assess a particular booking.
