FAMILY COMES FIRST Being a meeting planner is stressful and as Thanksgiving approaches I thought it would be a great time to give out some great "Tips" on how to show your family and friends how much you love and appreciate them.

DC's Dirty Little Secret "Suite" Client Event was a success! Between the pre-reception to watching the John Legend concert at The MGM National Harbor in a 25-person suite, everyone had a great time! Why do we call this event "Dirty Little Secret"? That's because RELATIONSHIPS MATTER! People do business with the people they like. These events are so important because they're memorable to all my clients and colleagues. Thank you all for attending! We'll see you next year! #relationshipsmatter Mark Dallman A Meeting Planner’s...

Let’s change that.  My name is Mark Dallman, the Hotel Contract Expert and a Meeting Planner’s Best Friend.   One thing that Covid has taught us is that hotel contracts matter, your Force Majeure Clause matters and having a hotel contract expert on your side will help alleviate your organization’s liability.  I create a Master Hotel Contract...
