Member Benefits

The Greater Phoenix Convention & Visitors Bureau is constantly striving to service each and every member in the best way possible. It is our goal to provide benefits that will enhance the business opportunities for member organizations. The following resources will help you make the most of your GPCVB membership:

Meeting & Travel Planner Guide for Greater Phoenix:
All members receive a listing in this guide with a 25-word description. It is used by convention planners, corporate decision-makers and group-tour coordinators to choose the various sites and suppliers necessary to hold a successful gathering in Greater Phoenix. 15,000 guides are published each year.

Official Visitors Guide to Greater Phoenix:
An informational four-color publication distributed to 300,000 tourism and convention visitors each year, the Visitors Guide is published each December. Members, who provide services directly to the visitor, i.e., attractions, restaurants, transportation, etc., receive a listing in a directory style guide. Local points of distribution include Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, hotels and resorts, convention registration desks, concierge centers at Phoenix Convention Center, and the CVB's Visitor Information Centers located in Downtown Phoenix and at Biltmore Fashion Park. The Visitors Guide is also mailed to those requesting visitor information.

These leads are set up on an open-bidding basis, and members can market directly to the tourism and convention decision-makers. Leads are sent to members based on the needs of the person making the request. There is no guarantee that all members will receive leads.
