Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
Is this really necessary? Typically when I'm at the Clink I am there for an event.. not to sit on my phone the whole time.
Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
I think so. concerts never start on time, sporting events always have down time, and they always have trade shows and conventions.guitarguy wrote:Is this really necessary? Typically when I'm at the Clink I am there for an event.. not to sit on my phone the whole time.
May be when its all working people will actually show up to sporting events on time.

MECA profits up by 30 percent in past year

They should finally expand out the convention section.

Hi Mark. That includes some of the things they've already done in this fiscal year: new scoreboard and video control system and concession stand improvements, among them.

Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
I'm sure they do but I wonder why Clink doesn't get more trade shows. It's easy money and there are tons of them around the country. Omaha is right in the middle of the country and who wouldn't want the airport & hotels to be within minutes of the trade show? the ones I go to range from Dallas to Columbus, Oh, to Nashville to bigger and midsize cities. they aren't all in Vegas and Orlando. Just wondering. The CC is the perfect size for it & as it is connected to the arena it's very competitive.

I think the Marriott being built next to the CLC will definitely assist in both getting these shows, but also other conventions.

Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
I spoke with a sales director this week at a DT Omaha hotel and we talked about this. She said Omaha is still a tough sale nationally. Many question the entertainment value around town. She claimed it's less about available hotel rooms around the arena and more of the perception of Omaha, and how much fun it would be to come here for a convention/trade show. An uphill battle against more established markets.NovakOmaha wrote:I'm sure they do but I wonder why Clink doesn't get more trade shows. It's easy money and there are tons of them around the country.

First, I go to a ton of trade shows. Most are in cities Omaha's size and smaller. It's all about the facility & hotel rooms. Food & booze are just as plentiful in Omaha within a mile of the Clink as any city Omaha's size and many that are larger.
Second, the sales director needs to quit making excuses and consider another line of work. That's a cop out. Where I come from you hire winners and producers. She sounds like neither. I know that sounds harsh but I just don't buy her excuses.
Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
We get a lot of business people here ever week for one reason or another. When I am at the gallery and I can tell someone is here from out of town, I always ask about where they are from and why they are here. They always say that Omaha is a great place and the ones that have never been here before always say how surprised they are about how great Omaha is.

Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
That is exactly my point Brad. For trade shows, conferences, training programs, etc., Omaha is perfect. Coast to coast flights, in the middle of the country, plenty of hotel options, plenty of food options, Clink has convention center and arena combined, affordable hotels (especially compared to many other cities) and on and on. I do to a ton of trade shows all over the country. Absolutely zero reason for Omaha not to be incredibly competitive for this business.
Maybe UNO or Metro need to offer hospitality marketing courses. Sounds like there is a need for salespeople in Omaha.

Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
In my area of medicine, the shows are either getting so small that they don't need (and cant afford) a place like the Clink, or are too big (and only getting bigger) for the Clink.
American Society of Hematology is 25,000 people. It is tiny compared to AAP at 30,000 or the Cardiologists at 50,000. Even the dental groups are just too big for the Clink. On the other side, there are small groups like the American Society of Ped Hem Onc that celebrated last spring that 1000 people attended. When we could fit our whole group into the hotel and the NBA draft combine could go on next to us, you know that the Clink is not going to show up on their radar screens.
As for Omaha being a tough sell, I have to tell you that the answer to that question is yes. When we get people here, we get good feedback, and the people have a nice time, but the image of Omaha outside of people who have been here, is crappy. They would rather pay twice as much for a crappy room in Chicago than go here. Another issue to consider in the image category, is that Postjudice is a factor here. If a meeting is held in some other second tier city that turns out bad, your meeting planners are going to be so unwilling to go to a second that Omaha could be the best city in the world, and they won't consider it.

On a side note the Georgia World Convention center is huge. At least 4 levels if bit 5. I have been in two rooms that seem to be at least as big as CL convention hall. Oh and I think there is only ONE hotel attached - the Omni.
Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
Flights are probably a big issue too. Why would some conventions come to a city where a number of their attendees would have to transfer in other cities when they could just host their event in one of the cities everyone is already transferring from.

One attached hotel and then one next door that CNN is in. Then there are about 3 that are across the green space from the center. It is vast. I had to walk from one end to another in about 15 minutes to get from one meeting to the next. It could swallow the Clink and the Hilton with room to spare.Uffda wrote:I am down in Atlanta for ISTE Ed tech conference.

I found their agenda and they said they don't like how the garage is emptying out so they are either considering a left turn out of the garage to keep traffic from all going right to Cass street or a ped bridge to eliminate the pedestrian/car bottleneck. It wasn't highly detailed.

Won't there be even more foot traffic going to the Capital District?
Greg
Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
Yes, but it depends on how the build it (entrances and doors). Right now, there is no fence or anything, so people who park in that lot can cut across wherever. If they orientate it with the main enterances facing Capitol or at least the 10th and Capitol intersection, I think people would be less inclined to walk across 10th by the parking garage.Greg S wrote:Won't there be even more foot traffic going to the Capital District?

Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
The specific language:
However, in situations when attendance is very high and everyone is exiting at the same time, pedestrians normally are the main cause of stalled traffic. The problem escalates with the combination of pedestrians, the traffic exiting from garage being limited on 10th Street (directly into pedestrian traffic), and driver’s trying to reach the interstate. The Board of Directors all agreed that a solution needs to be a priority, with talks of possibly inserting a median cut, using
bollards or adding a pedestrian bridge. Mr. Dixon will first set up a meeting with the Public Works Department and then the traffic division to find a solution.

Re: MECA Business News (CLCO/TDAPO)
For the first time when parking at the Creighton game last night, they were charging $8 to park in the lots on the east side of the C Link near Storz. They had it all roped off and only a few cars were parking there. I don't think you should have to pay $8 to walk 5-6 blocks. Hopefully they don't do this for future events too.
