Being a member of any industry
association is not only a
demonstration of your support for that
particular industry, it’s also an indication
to present and potential customers
that you take your business seriously
and have confidence in your sector.
This week’s announcement by Cruise
Industry Associations from around the
world that they are joining together to
create one global cruise association is
evidence that a collective approach to
business does work, “one industry, one
voice”.
As a retailer, the value of your
professionalism cannot be
underestimated and by being part of a
global association representing a
major part of your business
demonstrates your commitment to
the cruise industry.
Clients are also likely to be
impressed by a business that is proud
to promote their credibility by
endorsing their industry association.
Through your membership you are
taking a leadership position that says
you are knowledgeable about your
industry and interested in its future.
This is a low cost way of
demonstrating your involvement in
the industry and contributing to its
growth.
We anticipate that being part of our
global association will lead to more
robust partnership programs and
networking on a broader scale for our
growing number of retail members.
In closing 2012 with this very exciting
news we look forward to what lies
ahead in 2013!
On behalf of our team at the ICCA
and our member lines, we wish you all
a safe and prosperous festive season.
