Hi (Insert Supervisor’s name),

Registration is open for the Maine-Stay 2023 Conference, and I’d like to attend on behalf of (your company name). It’s a conference for tourism and hospitality industry leaders who want to level up their marketing efforts to help build their business into a tourist-attracting/customer-retaining Maine-Stay. It’s happening October 18-19th, in Bangor, Maine.

It’ll be an amazing opportunity for me to not only represent our business among 250 other attendees, industry leaders, and influential speakers, but I’ll also be able to bring back new skill sets and marketing tools from sessions that span topics like improving customer experience with a strong sense of place,  using video in social media, itineraries, and blogs, how to use and attract social media influencers, making the most of our website and social media and more.

To ensure this benefits the entire team, I’d love to share what I learned by giving a brief presentation to our team after attending.

Looking forward to discussing this further! Thank you for your consideration.
