A new sales representation service, NZ Bespoke, has just launched to the business events sector, connecting the sector to a portfolio of New Zealand’s most inspiring meeting venues, incentive style experiences and business events services.
The NZ Bespoke portfolio comprises of 17 businesses in destinations such as Auckland, Kaikoura, Christchurch, Mount Cook, Wanaka, Queenstown, Central Otago, Dunedin and West Coast. “The portfolio features hotels suitable for conferencing, luxurious incentive style accommodations, active outdoors experiences and team building activities, innovative off-site venues, and, linking them all together, stylish transportation and transfer services”, adds Trish.
Founded by tourism industry marketer, Trish May, NZ Bespoke addresses a gap in the market by enabling smaller – mediums sized suppliers, who lack a dedicated MICE sales resource, to access the business events market. Through NZ Bespoke Trish can provide sales representation, on a shared basis.
Proven Model Now Targets the Business Events Sector
NZ Bespoke was inspired by the New Zealand Travel Collective – an international/inbound sales representation brand, established by Trish May in August 2021. “The model is very similar – providing a platform for outstanding smaller to medium sized products to actively engage with agents, in this case business event agents.”
International Debut at AIME
NZ Bespoke will make its international debut at AIME in Melbourne, 9–11 February. “This is going to be a significant milestone for NZ Bespoke, and I’m delighted to be on the Tourism New Zealand stand,” concludes Trish. NZ Bespoke had a ‘soft’ launch in New Zealand at the Business Events Expo last November.
