Dawson Marketing Concepts Prioritizes Business Travel
The team members at Dawson Marketing Concepts are no strangers to travel. According to Vince, the company's Director of Operations, traveling regularly is worth the investment. He also talked about the firm's hiring push.
Houston, TX, February 25, 2015 (Newswire.com) - The marketing professionals at Dawson Marketing Concepts regularly travel to meet with clients and to execute campaigns. This not only broadens the service reach of the firm, but also allows the team to achieve greater results by conducting business face-to-face. Vince stated that this has consistently led to stronger client relationships and increased profitability.
“I believe that business should be done in person whenever possible,” he said. “It greatly improves communication and often means that things happen faster. All in all, I think traveling is central to my team’s success.”

He’s not alone in this sentiment – studies have shown that traveling for business can increase profits by up to $15 for every dollar spent on travel. This clearly indicates that superior results can come from hitting the road. As such, Vince often sends team members to conferences, on road trips, and even on retreats. He believes that keeping them moving promotes creativity and adaptability.

Vince also offered some advice to new travelers. He focused on how to reduce stress and take better care of oneself during travel. According to Vince, many of the issues that arise from it are rooted in poor planning and neglecting oneself.
“It’s important to realize that nothing is really different when you’re traveling,” he said. “You may be in another city and staying in a hotel, but your routines should remain more or less the same. Make sure you eat well – lighter choices are generally best – and exercise. Also be sure to sleep enough. So many people neglect these simple things when on the road, and end up paying the price.”
He also advocated packing carefully. According to Vince, it is best to avoid checking a bag unless absolutely necessary. Furthermore, traveling light will make the whole ordeal less stressful. Similarly, he suggested that professionals prepare thoroughly, well before departing. “Check-in online, be sure that your name is spelled correctly on your reservations, get everything you need together, and do it all early.”
Choosing flights with a bit of leeway is also a good idea, he indicated. Be sure to give yourself plenty of time to make connections, reach your hotel, and meet with customers. There are often delays while traveling and tight schedules can make things much worse.
“Finally, be ready with headphones and reading material,” he concluded. “There’s plenty of downtime while traveling. All in all, plan ahead and think through what could go wrong. If you’re prepared both mentally and physically, you’ll enjoy a good trip.”
Vince was quick to point out that travel opportunities are abundant at the firm, and are offered as a perk to those team members who are interested. “One of the reasons people join our company is because they get to be mobile,” he explained. As the company is currently looking for new people to join the team, Vince is confident that this benefit will continue to bring in fresh talent.
