Plan Your Meetings

On the road with meeting planners in the ‘Ham

Every October, PYM does a really special dual event with the Birmingham Convention and Visitors Bureau. We take a busload of Atlanta-based meeting planners to Birmingham for a daytime PYM LIVE Event (this year it’s at the amazing Renaissance Ross Bridge Golf Resort & Spa), which local Alabama planners also attend. Then, the Atlanta planners get a tour of the city and attend the CVB’s Fright Night, a fun evening event promoting what the city has to offer. We’ve got a couple of tech-savvy planners in the PYM group, including @checklistqueen (a.k.a. Erica Prewitt from A Big To Do Event Planning), who promised to keep us up-to-date on the trip.

Here’s the presentation from @Kevin_Johnston (click to download):
