Remember to include attrition clauses into your contracts that cover the following areas: Do not forget to ask to apply penalties to future business. Ask for a clause that states that if the hotel represents itself as sold out anytime during your program, then there will be no attrition for the group. Include contract terms allowing the meeting planner to replace...
