If you’ve ever had to book flights, hotels, and an event space for a business conference or company incentive trip, you know just how complex and time-consuming the process can be. Juggling airfare, room blocks, and event space rentals is overwhelming, to say the least. But what if we told you there are companies that can handle all of that for you… at no cost? We didn’t know either until we met GMI Worldwide.
GMI Worldwide is a corporate meetings, events, and conference planning agency that helps professionals plan and execute events with far less stress. At the core of their services is hotel and destination sourcing and booking, along with contract negotiation—all completely free to you. Not only does this save an incredible amount of time and stress, it often saves money too. Honestly, it’s a no-brainer.
Beyond sourcing and booking, GMI can take on the many moving pieces that make event planning so complex. From registration and branding to attendee communications, event websites, and on-site management, their team can handle it all. Their goal is simple: hire them where you need them to save time, money, and headaches while delivering high-quality, impactful events anywhere in the world.
With more than 40 years in the meetings and hospitality space, GMI has built invaluable relationships with hotel partners over their decades in business (booking over 200,000 nights in hotels annually). While they have a global reach, they’ve never lost their personal touch, providing dedicated, personalized support for their clients, while offering them the ability to stay with major hotel brands around the planet. With this in mind, GMI Worldwide has made it their mission to emphasize transparency in their work, never having hidden markups, and advocating for the client’s best interests through every step of planning.
While GMI had spent years delivering exceptional results for their clients, their website never quite told the same story. They had tried building a public-facing site before, but the end result never reflected the level of quality, luxury, and expertise they brought to every event. Ultimately, they made the decision to take it down altogether rather than present something that didn’t truly represent who they were.
That’s when they came to Anchor Wave. They knew it was time for a digital presence that matched the experience they deliver in real life; and they trusted us to bring that vision to life with an online storefront that finally reflects their level of expertise, luxury, and quality.
Biggest Improvements
GMI Worldwide has a unique problem; many don’t know that their line of work even exists. They even told us that many people don’t believe that there are companies that will manage booking hotels and event spaces for businesses for free. With that in mind, Anchor Wave was able to create a MarketingHub which stands as a centralized place to educate and empower potential customers!
With their new beautiful site, GMI can show their clients not only their commitment to high quality customer service, but also the in’s and out’s of their industry, and the numerous advantages it brings to business owners the world over.
Biggest Challenges
GMI Worldwide, as their name suggests, is a globally minded business, whose employees are constantly travelling around the world, making connections with employees, hotel and event spaces, and much more. Due to this reality of their industry, we were not able to get a proper photoshoot scheduled for them.
At Anchor Wave, we think it is always extremely powerful to show the people behind a business, providing faces and identities to the names at a company. We hope to complete a proper full team photoshoot in the near future so we can add more authentic imagery to their MarketingHub.
What We Are Raving About…
“Working with GMI Worldwide was incredibly rewarding because of the depth of expertise and passion their team brings to an industry not many people realize exists. It was exciting to help tell their story in a way that matches the level of quality, luxury, and trust they deliver to every client they work with. Their openness, collaboration and excitement for their work made it clear just how much they care about their clients. Building a MarketingHub that educates, empowers, and truly reflects who GMI is was a project we’re especially proud of.” – Taylor, CSC
