A VPN encrypts your connection over them, so the rate sheets, client emails and CRM logins you handle across a week in Sao Paulo travel through a network you don’t control without being readable on it.

If attending from overseas, set up an eSIM before you travel for local data rates in Brazil.
Is ILTM Latin America worth attending as a travel sales rep?
For travel sales representatives covering Americas or selling product into the region's source markets, ILTM Latin America is one of the highest-leverage uses of trade-budget time. The combination of pre-scheduled appointments, ad-hoc floor conversations, and the structured networking outside official hours typically delivers more new business contacts per day than weeks of separate property visits. The economic case depends on how rigorously you capture meeting notes and follow up afterwards — both areas where a structured logging system pays back many times over.
How should travel sales reps prepare for ILTM Latin America?
The most productive reps walk into ILTM Latin America with a confirmed meeting schedule, briefing notes on each contact, and specific objectives for each conversation. Preparation typically begins 4–6 weeks ahead: locking in appointments, refreshing relationship history on each contact, identifying portfolio gaps to address, and pre-loading any property or rate news worth sharing. RepBud's Meeting Prep feature generates per-contact briefings from your interaction history, and the trade-show command centre tracks meetings, captures business cards by photo, and logs follow-ups in real time.
What's the best way to follow up after ILTM Latin America?
The follow-up window after ILTM Latin America is short — most attendees lose a meaningful share of their warm leads to inbox chaos within ten days of getting home. The reps who convert at the highest rate work from a structured log captured during the show rather than reconstructing from memory afterwards, send personalised follow-ups within 72 hours, and have a clear next-touchpoint plan for each contact. RepBud's smart logging — voice notes between meetings, business-card scans, forwarded emails — keeps the record while it's fresh, so your client reports and your follow-up list are built from what you captured rather than from memory.
How do experienced reps approach ILTM Latin America differently from first-timers?
First-time attendees often try to meet everyone; experienced reps pre-qualify ruthlessly and target the contacts who match their actual portfolio gaps. They block out floor time for the people who matter most rather than chasing serendipity, use unstructured evening events for deeper conversation rather than business pitches, and keep post-show follow-up effort proportional to long-term contact value. Above all, they work from a system — a reliable way to log everything as it happens, so ILTM Latin America pays back not just in the weeks afterwards but for years through accurate records of who said what.
