Fees

Consulting services are determined at a no-cost initial meeting to determine the scope of work that will be required.

Site Selection and Contract Negotiation services are remunerated through commissions or placement fees from hotels. Oversight for services related to the contract — banquet event orders, audiovisual requirements, and other concerns — are also covered by this compensation. Peggy Young & Associates will ensure that your contract will include a multitude of determinable cost-saving solutions.

Comprehensive Meeting Management services are billed at a project or daily rate determined by a detailed and agreed-upon Scope of Work and Letter of Agreement.
