Why should you be coming to the ASSC 2019 Conference?

Some words from delegates, speakers and exhibitors who attended the ASSC Conference:

Delegates

This was my second year in an industry that has quite literally changed the shape of my future. To have a conference like this provides an invaluable platform for learning, networking and certainly keeping up to date with changes. Gone are the days where Scotland could trade off its history and landscape. Tourism is increasing but the tourist is more savvy and we must up our game and stay abreast of the changes. The ASSC conference provides us with an annual ‘check in point, an MOT, a reminder that we are all in this because we choose to be; its a lifestyle and we are not alone.

I have been coming to the ASSC conference now for about 5 years and each year I am always impressed with its growth and the quality of topics, information, and speakers they continue to present. I always go away feeling very inspired and energised ready for the next challenge. Thank you ASSC.

The ASSC’s 2018 conference was welcoming, educational and, above all else, truly inspiring. I’d like to say a massive thanks to everyone whose hard work and determination made this event such a success. I’m already looking forward to next year!

The epitome of a professional event. Relevant content, inspirational speakers and an excellent venue. Great job.

The ASSC conference is the one event of the year we would not miss. It is superbly organised, with some really inspiring speakers. You don’t just take one thing away from the day but loads!

A professionally run event with interesting and amusing speakers together with great networking opportunities.

We attended this event with an open mind and had no previous experience in this business. We had no idea what we were letting ourselves in for or what to expect. This was a perfect start for us to listen, learn and take away some brilliant and exciting ideas on how we see our business going forward. I can’t thank Fiona and the rest of the team for letting us into the world of the ASSC and we are both so excited and focused on the way forward and hopefully by this time next year we will be a fully established business. Thanks again. Rab & Paula

Yet again, the ASSC conference proved very valuable in terms of time and financial commitment – I walked away with a handful of immediate actions to implement for my business and learnt a great deal from speakers, workshops and by networking with my peers.

A really useful event: highly relevant topics, excellent calibre of speakers, great networking and exhibitors targeted to my needs. This was my first conference – it won’t be the last. Helen Gray, Owner, The Green Lodge Aviemore

Brilliant opportunity to find out what you don’t know! And you can then work out what you need to find out more about.

The Conference was well organised, well attended and the range of speakers and topics was first class. A very useful event and I will be back in future.

Extremely interesting and informative. Certainly a must attend on the calendar for all of those involved in the accommodation sector in Scotland and beyond.

 

Speakers

Geoff Ramm – WOW.  Just wanted to say how much I loved speaking for you and your members this week in Glasgow.   On the train back home social media notifications and mentions went a little crazy which is always a great sign people ‘got’ the message, so I can’t wait to see the ideas that people create.

Andrea Nicholas, Green Tourism Great conference – congratulations and well done to you and your team ?.  Thanks for the positive feedback – it was a great event and we did have a lot of interest – we will be monitoring this over the next few weeks so we can assess our ROI on the sponsorship with regard to new business – however the networking with strategic partners was definitely worth it for me and I am sure it will help with our overall development

Stephen Whitelaw, Orthic ConsultingJust to say a big thank you to both of you, firstly thank you for inviting me to present and also a big ‘well done’ on the organisation of the event – it went really well  and the AV Dept guys were excellent – they really know their stuff.

Garry Marshall, Scottish Fire & Rescue Service – The event was extremely useful and a great opportunity to engage with the sector and provide them with the advice and guidance they were looking for.  Congratulations again to you and the team on such a well ran event.

 

Exhibitors

Linda Slinger, Cumberland Business Another great conference – congratulations.  We thought the speakers, format, venue and food were all excellent.

Janet Torley, Inspire Design – We’ve already had some excellent leads to follow and rather excited with the outcomes

Chris Nettleton, Leisuredays – Just wanted to thank you both for another fab conference.  All was very well organised and it all went very smoothly Pre event info and speakers were all excellent. No negative comments all positive – well done.  Thanks again for delivering a very worthwhile conference and hope to see you at the next one.
