Host agency OutsideAgents.com recently held its inaugural cruise symposium onboard AmaWaterways' AmaPrima. The weeklong event brought together host agency members, preferred supplier representatives and OutsideAgents.com staff for a round-trip river cruise itinerary from Amsterdam, with stops along the Rhine and Moselle rivers.

"The Cruise Symposium was designed for agents to become familiar with the river cruise experience, expand their knowledge of preferred supplier products and immerse themselves in meaningful exchanges with like-minded entrepreneurs, and we succeeded in accomplishing these objectives," said Steve Muraca and Chad Burt, co-owners of OutsideAgents.com.

Several advisors also had the opportunity to experience a river cruise for the first time and shared that they received inquiries from clients after posting photos and videos on their websites and/or social media platforms. The symposium also included educational sessions on group business sessions, networking opportunities and one-on-one meetings between agents, suppliers and OutsideAgents.com staff. 

"I was delighted to be able to participate in the Cruise Symposium onboard the AmaPrima,” said Tara Waldrop, owner of Tailored Travel and a member since 2019. It allowed me the opportunity to experience AmaWaterways and network with fellow agents, supplier representatives and key staff from OutsideAgents.com. The supplier training sessions were invaluable, and I look forward to applying what I learned to my business."
