Find Event Planners for Hotel Bookings

Posted 6 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

I'm a luxury travel advisor (IATA-affiliated, working with a major travel platform) who arranges hotel bookings — including full or large room-block bookings — for events, conferences, weddings, and corporate gatherings, anywhere in the world. I'm looking for someone to find event planners (corporate event planners, wedding planners, conference organizers, production coordinators) who regularly need to book multiple hotel rooms or take over full hotels for their events — and reach out to introduce my service directly. What I need done: 1. Research and build a list of event planners (individuals or agencies) who organize events requiring 10+ hotel rooms or full hotel takeovers — anywhere in the world, any city. 2. Reach out to each one directly (email, LinkedIn, or other appropriate channel) with a message I will provide, introducing my hotel booking service for their events. 3. Track outreach and responses in a simple spreadsheet, and flag any interested replies to me immediately. What I'm offering as my service (for your outreach message): I handle all hotel bookings for an event planner's clients or attendees — sourcing rooms, negotiating group rates, and managing the booking process — so the planner doesn't have to deal with hotels directly. No cost to the planner or their client; I'm paid through standard hotel commission. What I need in a candidate: - Real experience in lead generation, B2B outreach, or sales research — not just general admin - Comfortable researching and using LinkedIn, event industry directories, and general web research to find real event planners - Able to write or personalize outreach messages professionally in English - Organized — will track outreach and results clearly Trial task (before ongoing hire): Research and provide a list of 15-20 real event planners or event planning agencies (corporate or wedding, any location) known for booking large group hotel blocks or full-hotel events, with verified contact info (email or LinkedIn). Fixed fee: $[your amount]. To apply, please answer in your proposal: 1. What's your experience with B2B lead research or outreach? 2. What sources or tools would you use to find event planners who book large hotel blocks? 3. Can you personalize outreach messages, or only send generic templates? Generic proposals that don't answer these will not be considered.
