Recent News: It's about relationships, not COVID.

There's a natural tendency for people to want to get together, whether it's for business or play or family. That's why it's not surprising that of all the economic sectors badly hammered by COVID, the travel and hospitality industries took the worst hit.

Business travel — including corporate, group and government — is the hotel industry’s largest source of revenue.

And according to a report issued last month by the American Hotel & Lodging Association and Kalibri Labs, “The hotel industry is projected to end 2021 down more than $59 billion in business travel revenue compared to 2019... That comes after losing nearly $49 billion in business travel revenue in 2020.”

The report concluded that “Business travel revenue is not expected to reach pre-pandemic levels until 2024.”
​
Clearly, once COVID hit in March of 2020, the carefree days of jetting to distant places for meetings, conferences, conventions and trade shows vanished overnight.

So if you make your living creating these events, what are you supposed to do?

Well, if you're Cindy Delaney, who has built a million-dollar business as an event, convention and conference planner based in Winooski — with reach across the US, including Hawaii and Alaska — you instantly embrace the digital and carry on.

Delaney, 58, founded Delaney Meeting & Event Management in 1997 after a career in hotel sales.

Since then, she has steadily increased her business, expanding the range of events and the depth of her services.

“We manage about 50 events a year,” Delaney said. “The typical one, that's probably two-thirds of what we do, would be a multi-day conference at a destination, regionally or nationally, where there's workshops, a keynote speaker or two, board meetings, meals, social events and a trade show. That's a typical event.”

Before COVID, the company was making “a little over a million dollars a year,” Delaney said. But COVID has changed everything.

“Due to COVID, it was probably down 20-to-25 percent last year,” Delaney said. “It could have been a lot worse. Look at the wedding industry and the hotels, and you know, we did better than most. We got some loans, thank God, and that helped a lot.”
