The Business of Marketplace starts now!

APPOINTMENT REQUESTS BEGIN TODAY!

The appointment request process begins today, Sept. 24, 2008.  You can change your requests with additions and deletions, seeking that perfect match, as many times as you like until November 14, 2008.  The appointments are scheduled based on your company's registration date, NOT the date you submit your appointments - so update them frequently.  You will receive your appointment schedule via email on November 21, 2008.  If you have any difficulties with the Appointment Request process, please contact ABA at meetingsdept@buses.org or (800) 283-2877.

With more than 2000 delegates including nearly 300 appointment-taking buyers confirmed, Marketplace's pre-scheduled appointments will start your new year with a great return for your company.  Marketplace appointments will be money in the bank with booked business!

The ABA Appointment system uses your requests to pre-schedule the maximum number of appointments.  Thus, you are assured quality appointments with the companies you want to see.  We match you with the companies you identified during your research so you don't have to do the work again later.  However, after you receive your appointment schedule in November, you will be able to participate in our Manual Scheduling Process if you have spots to fill.  This is the fourth year Marketplace delegates have been able to add appointments into their schedule before the show opens and during the Marketplace week.
