Membership Works

Read what members are saying about Bureau membership.

"The contacts I've made at Bureau events have helped me spread the word about my tour. One event even resulted in a radio interview. I have also utilized the Online Convention Calendar to reach meeting planners as they come to town. The Calendar is a tremendous help, because it lets me know how and where to advertise. Everyone is so impressed when they discover that I'm a Bureau member. Thanks for everything!"

"Bureau educational seminars was wonderful. We learned about potential prospects and we're excited about the opportunities to help grow our business. In particular, we're looking forward to participating in Familiarization (FAM) Tours and other incoming group opportunities. San Francisco is in good hands with the Bureau representing us. Thanks again."

“The official opening of “Are We Almost There?” was first announced to the world at a Bureau networking event in June 2001, and since then, the SFCVB has been an invaluable ally. Our two man-two women musical review features songs and comedy sketches dealing with the fun and frustration of travel. Unfortunately, the events of 9/11 happened a week after the show opened. The ripple effect forced the closure of many theatre companies, and our show went on hiatus. But “Are We Almost There?” reopened in February 2002 at the Shelton Theatre and the show now runs open-ended, drawing enthusiastic audiences Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. This success story would not have been possible without the excellent resources of Bureau membership. The use of the Visitor Information Center at Hallidie Plaza, to display our brochures, partnership with other Bureau members and our listing on sfvisitor.org have all contributed greatly to the show’s continuing popularity.
We give the San Francisco Convention & Visitors Bureau a big round of applause and a standing ovation.”
