Associate Delegates

Associate members who want to be able to sell their products/services to operator and/or travel industry members on the Networking Floor. Associates can choose to have an exhibit for the entire Marketplace week, one-day at the Product Pavilion, or have no exhibit space.

Appointment-taker Seller:

Appointment-taker delegates make appointment requests, receive pre-scheduled appointments and conduct appointments at Marketplace during their business session.

ABA members are eligible to have at least one appointment-taker delegate if registered before the session fills. Organizations attending for the first time and organizations that did not attend Marketplace in 2011 are eligible for only one appointment-taker seller delegate. ABA member organizations may register additional delegates as outlined below:

Organizations that had thirty-two (32) or more pre-scheduled buyer requests (not appointments) in 2011 will qualify for a second appointment-taker delegate if that delegate is registered before the session fills.
A third appointment-taker delegate will qualify if the organization had sixty-four (64) or more pre-scheduled buyer requests in 2011 and if that delegate is registered before the session fills.

Appointment-taking Associate delegates will be able to select from the following business sessions:

Appointment session: Monday AM/Tuesday PM*
