Inventa Brand Experience
« Working with an organization and individuals who ‘get it’ is always a pleasure – and that is the experience with Strategic Site Selection. Having a true partner who understands your needs, can negotiate challenges (sometimes before you even see them!), and offers workable solutions is invaluable to us in the events industry. On every project they have offered turnkey solutions that would have eaten up precious resources had we taken them on internally – and with better outcomes! Creativity, Passion, Collaboration and Integrity are Inventa’s core values as an agency, and they have been consistently reflected back to us by our partners at Strategic Site Selection. We’re looking forward to many more projects together! »

« Working with Strategic Site Selection, has truly been not only a pleasure, but also makes me look forward to planning events, meetings, receptions (something that I wouldn’t have dreamed that I would be saying). Being not only a small company, but a small, Not for Profit Company, finding a company that gives the same attention and care to a larger organization as they do to a small team of 8 is very rare, and is something to be cherished.
Through every event, Strategic Site Selection has come through on every asked deliverable and has worked with the hotels to ensure that we are getting the absolute best that we can. After each event, I genuinely feel as if they took the same care and attention to detail as if they were planning the even for themselves. The relationship that they have fostered with all of the hotels that they work with ensures that no matter the size of your company or budget, you are truly getting treated to the best.
I cannot recommend higher the services of Strategic Site Selection, and indeed, refer the company to anybody that I know that requires any kind of event management/assistance ».

« SSS has made our job infinitely easier by helping us identify the best homes for our conferences and negotiate the best venue packages. A lot of the perks and contractual benefits that we received would not have been possible to obtain without the SSS’s expert advice.
SSS not only brings a wealth of technical expertise but also an exceptional customer service and readiness to support us with any issues, no matter how difficult, to make sure that we, in turn, deliver the best conference experience to our clients. We are very fortunate to have this partnership with SSS and look forward to many productive years together ».

« Our experience with the team at Strategic Site Selection over the last three years has been wonderful. They are personable and professional, and clearly understand our unique needs as a charity organization that runs 6-7, multi-day, national learning events every year. What we appreciate most about working with the SSS team is that they clearly communicate our principles to prospective partners and negotiate on our behalf when needed. As a result, SSS has saved us time and protected our bottom line on several occasions. «

« Working with Strategic Site Selection has made event organizing so much easier for us. With the help of SSS we have more options for where to host an event, our contracts have included more services/amenities and also important clauses to manage the unexpected. SSS are there to help liaise between our office and the venue and have patiently reviewed policy and strongly advocated with us to resolve any concerns. This is a company that we recommend to our colleagues without hesitation. »

« I have had the sincere pleasure of working with Strategic Site Selection since 2008. I had never heard of a site selector prior to meeting Mark Dosman and now I couldn’t imagine not working with one nor could I imagine working with anyone else! We have worked together on countless contracts and established a relationship and trust that I have rarely felt on a professional level. Mark Dosman is a true ambassador and advocate for his clients. I am always made to feel like I am a priority and an invaluable contributor to the success of SSS. I have recently started working with other members of the team and can attest that the level of professionalism, friendliness and ‘can do’ attitude runs rampant within the organization. »

Ontario Catholic School Business Officials Association
« The Directors of the Ontario Catholic School Business Officials Association (OCSBOA) brought Strategic Site Selection (SSS) on board to assist with the search and negotiation process in selecting a host site for its’ annual AGM and Conference.
The result of this decision has been very beneficial. SSS has provided valuable financial and other related data that has made the annual process of selecting a conference site much more informative.
SSS at no cost to the association has negotiated contracts that meet all of our conference needs. I highly recommend that SSS be utilized by any group looking to secure a meeting /conference site. »

Syngenta AG
We are one of Strategic Site Selection’s first clients and have used them for many years. When I first met Mark I didn’t even know what a site selection company did, as I had always sourced out my own meeting space.
As a meeting planner my time is valuable and when a company like Strategic Site is there to source out properties, negotiate the complexities of hotel contracts and be our support system with any issues that arise, well that is simply priceless.
The fact that we don’t pay any fees to Strategic Site was an easy sell to higher management on the value that this type of service can bring to a large corporation such as ours, but at the same time, smaller businesses would also see these same great benefits.
All of our meeting planners across Canada use Strategic Site Selection for our meetings and only trust them because they know our culture and act as advocates on our behalf when negotiating. This saves us time and money and in the end that is the biggest value they provide to us as a company.
On a personal level, their team is supportive, hard-working and have a great sense of humor which you need in this business and that makes our jobs easier and much more enjoyable too!
