 Advertising Efforts

Event notices are sent out to the entire database beginning approximately 30 days prior to an event and continue until the day prior to an event. Each event is communicated to the entire database at least 5 times. Press releases about all our chapter events are sent to local chapters of all travel / hospitality associations and local media. CNFBTA creates an Event Program for each meeting which is provided to each attendee.  Future meetings that are firm prior to the meeting, will be published in this collateral.  All registrations for CNFBTA events are made on through the organization’s website, www.cnfbta.org.
