First Time 2016 Exhibitor AVVIO Shares Company's HX Experience

We interviewed Chris Rose, Head of Marketing for AVVIO, a first time exhibitor of The Hotel Experience in 2016. Chris shares his experience at HX and talks about the perks of exhibiting with The Hotel Experience. Check it out:

COMPANY:
AVVIO is a premium booking platform for hotels. Our highly advanced, cloud-based eCommerce booking platform includes a smart and responsive booking engine, Channel Manager, AB testing capability, a user-friendly CMS and integrations with all key third party technologies, including connectivity to Metasearch channels, property management systems and more

HX GOALS:
 AVVIO is a tech company. We use a SAS platform to help hotels, apartment hotels, and lots of others increase their direct bookings so that they are not so reliant on outside providers like Trivago or similar concepts. “We’re a European company and well known in Europe. Our goal at HX was to increase exposure to the U.S. hospitality market, specifically hotel owners, general managers, revenue managers and other decision makers. Once we connected with them, the goal is ultimately to convert them into new clients.”

HX EXPERIENCE
“We were really impressed by who we could connect with and talk with at the conference. We wanted decision makers and HX has those. We developed a really good batch of leads and actually signed new clients right there at the event. We were right in the tech area and the attendees in that area were always trying things, and were very engaged. So with that, there were just great opportunities to run through our demo to make deals immediately.”

HX RESULTS 
“There is no doubt that HX opens the U.S. hospitality market up to companies like AVVIO. Absolutely in North America, it is the event to go to. Our exposure to buyers was terrific. We could see it in the coverage pre and post event. It had an impact on our digital channels in terms of likes and follows. Our web traffic increased as did our awareness as a whole in the US. It was impressive to meet with so many of the people we wanted to meet in such a short period of time. This year we are going to make our booth even more interactive. It is definitely a show we would recommend.”
