Free and easy, so what's the catch?

 

 

Small meetings no longer require big effort thanks to CWT Meeting & Event's new booking tool

A new tool is taking the strain out of booking small meetings. CWT Small Meetings is our free, quick and easy solution to booking events for fewer than 40 delegates. Better still, a recent upgrade means we can create a bespoke platform for each client.

Meetings bookers say they love the time-saving tool that allows them to search, select and book venues at a click of a button. With great savings on rates and visibility on data, anyone involved with meetings programmes will love it too!

"The solution has been incredibly well received by our clients and we are currently in implementation with a number of UK and global corporates," says Natasha Davies, account manager, CWT Meetings & Events.

It's easy to understand why. Previously it would take about 16 hours to locate, enquire and confirm a meeting space. That might make sense for larger events, but it simply doesn't add up for small meetings. The new tool slashes that time to just a few minutes, allowing meeting arrangers to spend their time where they really need too – planning the meeting content.

Bookers can hone their search using the filters in CWT Small Meetings to find the ideal venue to match their needs, plus a map shows the proximity of the venues available to the delegates' start point.

And it is opening bookers' eyes to new possibilities as a wide selection of exciting meeting spaces are revealed – including hotels, conference centres, warehouses and more – all offering opportunities to freshen up events that may have become stale.

Here's what you need to know about CWT Small Meetings.

What is a small meeting?

Small meetings are events for fewer than 40 delegates, without accommodation.

And what's the new tool?

CWT Small Meetings is a free, easy-to-use, mobile-friendly booking platform which provides an experience similar to that offered by the leisure travel industry with the likes of Airbnb and booking.com.

The online tool offers access to more than 75,000 meeting spaces that can be booked at the click of a button. All you pay is the price of the space you're booking.

What are the benefits?

  • CWT Small Meetings is now available to everyone

Natasha concludes: "Everyone benefits. CWT M&E prides itself on offering a solution for our clients' smaller meetings as well as managing their larger events. For the bookers, it means a quicker and easier way to arrange events. And from a company's point of view, it's a viable solution that fits with a well managed programme."
