We ran our first conference and exhibition for business travel booking assistants last September and I’m very excited to announce that we will be running Assist Travel again this year. At the end of this conference attendees will have the knowledge and the connections to greatly improve their business travel processes and procedures.

When Nicky approached me to speak about my top tips for beginners at The Assist Conference I was truly honored. Despite my passion for social media I haven’t always been adept at it and was a twitter virgin until The Assist Conference 2015. You can get free headshots at PA/EA conferences such as Office Show.

We held our first Assist Travel conference and exhibition on Friday 25th September at the Hilton Bankside and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed the day. The hotel itself was not open to guests and you could literally smell the fresh paint in the conference space. As you can imagine I was really excited to get the conference started.

I will be presenting on this very topic at the conference. A well organised travel itinerary is an essential service that assistants can provide for their managers. In addition I suggest you upload the information to an online document management website (Dropbox for example), just in case they misplace the paperwork.

The only upside in my example is that I was the client, so I haven’t lost business, just a good supplier. I think in general I’ve managed to keep it from going far beyond what I actually intend, but I definitely have written posts purely because I’m pissed off. It continues to bother me that I may have over reacted.
