OutsideAgents.com’s Inaugural Cruise Symposium Sets Sail for Success Aboard AmaWaterways’ AmaPrima

 

Jacksonville, FL, April 11, 2024 – OutsideAgents.com, America’s premier host agency, held its inaugural cruise symposium with AmaWaterways aboard the AmaPrima. The symposium brought together OutsideAgents.com members, preferred vendor representatives and OutsideAgents.com staff for the week-long event. The river cruise itinerary was round trip Amsterdam with stops along the Rhine and Moselle Rivers.

 

The symposium included group business sessions, networking opportunities and one on one meetings between agents, suppliers and OutsideAgents.com staff. The sessions and meetings allowed the agents and suppliers to engage and review supplier products. Several agents also had the opportunity to experience a river cruise for the first time and have shared that they received inquiries from clients after posting photos and videos on their websites and/or social media platforms. 

 

Steve Muraca and Chad Burt, Co-Owners of OutsideAgents.com, stated, “The Cruise Symposium was designed for agents to become familiar with the river cruise experience, expand their knowledge of preferred supplier products and immerse themselves in meaningful exchanges with like-minded entrepreneurs and we succeeded in accomplishing these objectives. We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to AMAWaterways for hosting us and giving us the privilege of experiencing their exceptional product.”

 

Tara Waldrop, owner of Tailored Travel and a member since 2019 stated “I was delighted to be able to participate in the Cruise Symposium aboard the AmaPrima. It allowed me the opportunity to experience AMAWaterways and network with fellow agents, supplier representatives, and key staff from OutsideAgents.com. The supplier training sessions were invaluable and I look forward to applying what I learned to my business.”
