Here’s what MMGY has to say about the ser­vice they offer:

As the largest inte­grat­ed trav­el mar­ket­ing firm in the world, we inspire peo­ple to go places. We now exe­cute strate­gies and tac­tics across all mar­ket­ing dis­ci­plines with­in one inte­grat­ed com­pa­ny. We under­stand where trav­el­ers are going, how they think and why they want to go places. We lis­ten, study and engage as we take a proac­tive approach to thought lead­er­ship in the trav­el industry.

Most of all, we con­tin­ue to sur­round our­selves with pas­sion­ate peo­ple. You might think that pas­sion is exclu­sive­ly about the trav­el itself. We believe it’s a pas­sion about the ben­e­fits of trav­el and what it shows us about oth­ers and, ulti­mate­ly, our­selves. To me, it helps make the world a lit­tle small­er. And to Clay­ton, myself, and to the rest of our team, trav­el is about move­ment – as we con­tin­ue to give trav­el­ers what they need to keep going.
