7th
DMS Annual Workshops & AIME 2008
Thank
you to everyone who visited our Workshops and AIME stand
and we trust both provided good networking forums to
meet with our international business partners. 30 DMC
and hotel business partners participated and were
motivated by the response from the Australian and New
Zealand market and look forward to returning next year.
Additional thanks to our sponsors for their support.

Working with our New Zealand industry sponsors
As
DMS services both the Australian and New Zealand market,
we were pleased to work with Emirates New Zealand
who sponsored a group of our top New Zealand clients to
participate in our Melbourne Workshop and visit AIME.
DMS’
2007 Incentive Industry Survey
The
survey was sent to our incentive industry colleagues to
gauge feedback on various destinations and any issues
which affected program planning. For participating in
the survey, the lucky winners of the two gift vouchers
were Sarah Dixon (Catalyst Events) and Tanya Wick (Solterbeck
Travel).

Testimonials
Ensuring you have chosen the right DMC to work on your
program is an important decision. As our DMC business
partners have worked with the Australian and New Zealand
market for a long time, we can provide testimonials and
contact details of other agents who have worked with our
DMCs to assist with your reference checks.
In
the last six months, many of our DMCs were busy with
programs and the feedback we have received from agents
is a true testament to their professionalism.
