Convention and Visitors' Bureaus
Convention Bulletin Board
Convention Bulletin Boards (CVBs) can help large conventions and trade shows by
providing centralized information lines or even voice mail boxes when attendees
are housed in several hotels. Attendees can be assigned voice mailboxes for the
duration of the conference.
Events Hotline/Fax-On-Demand
Visitors and convention attendees can find out about events scheduled in town. A
fax-on-demand system can send similar information in more detail and can help
with pre-trip planning.
Hotel Room Reservations
Callers can inquire about hotels with vacancies, enter room and price
preferences, and be put through to reservation desks.
Entertainment Hotline
Callers can inquire about theater offerings, sporting events, concerts and
restaurants, and be put through to ticket/reservations desks. Directions,
seating diagrams, menus, and promotional coupons can be faxed out.
Electronic Yellow Pages
The traditional, printed Yellow Pages is a listing of businesses categorized by
products and services that is normally distributed by the local telephone
company free of charge to all homes with a telephone. Each listing contains the
phone number and address of the business and (for a fee) some information about
available products and services. Because these listings are updated annually,
they do not include time-sensitive information about sales or new products. A
CT-based, electronic Yellow Pages can provide this kind of information and be
updated much more easily and can go a step further by placing calls out to the
advertiser selected by the caller. The two kinds of directories can complement
each other: Each listing in the printed Yellow Pages can provide an associated
telephone number. Callers who dial this number hear a customized message that
contains information about current sales or special events.
