Venue Sourcing
Find the right venue for your meeting or event.
I help organisations source and assess venues for meetings, conferences, leadership events and client hospitality, taking account of your objectives, budget and the people attending.
You work directly with me, Alan Athey. I compare suitable options, negotiate rates and terms, and liaise with venues through to confirmation, with the scope of support agreed at the outset.
How I can support you
I identify suitable venues against your brief and compare availability, proposals, meeting space, accommodation and overall value. Where useful, I coordinate site inspections to help you assess the shortlisted options.
Venue search and comparison
I negotiate rates and terms, clarify what each proposal includes, and liaise with venues and your team through to confirmation. Support with room blocks, catering and related arrangements can be included in the agreed scope.
Negotiation and coordination
We begin with your brief: the purpose of the event, preferred dates and locations, attendee numbers, accommodation needs and budget. We agree the scope of support, responsibilities and fees before work begins.
I then approach suitable venues, compare proposals and discuss the options with you. Once you have chosen a venue, I support the agreed negotiations and coordination through to confirmation.
