Your Three-week-out Convention Checklist

October 21, 2010

Here is your list of 10 things to do before Convention begins (it’s only three weeks away!):

1. Book your transportation and housing (NTA special room rates disappear Oct. 29!) If you plan on flying into Vermont and taking the 1.5-hour Sugar Tours shuttle to Montréal, you need to make your reservations!
2. Sign up for one of the sightseeing tours (They fill up quickly!)
3. Check your passport and read these travel tips.
4. Review and respond to any Direct Request appointments online. (Remember, Direct Request Scheduling opens Nov. 1.)
5. Print out your appointment scheduling list and review the products you’re marketing – are they the newest you have? That’s what tour operators are looking for! (We’ll be sending you a folder to organize your Convention materials in.)
6. Order your t-shirt! (Here’s an order form and the design.)
7. Pack appropriately. Check the weather and bring some warm clothes! Here’s a good guide.
8. Make sure you have enough business cards (we suggest at least 500); and don’t forget them!
9. Be part of the Convention success – volunteer! It’s a great way to meet other members and support NTA.
10. Learn the Hustle and bring your ’70s outfit.
