SKO planning questions, answered.
Everything you need to know before you book your sales kickoff.
What's the typical timeline for booking an SKO venue?
Most SKOs should be booked 3-6 months in advance to secure the best availability and rates for large groups. If you're working with a tighter timeline, Marco has helped teams finalize venues in 1-2 weeks when needed.
Can Marco find venues with large general session capacity?
Yes. Our venue search filters specifically for meeting space capacity. Tell us your general session headcount and breakout requirements and we'll surface properties with confirmed availability for your format.
Does Marco handle AV and production vendors?
With Offsites Pro, yes. Your dedicated Event Designer can source and manage A/V, production, and technical vendors as part of your planning package. Instant Offsites focuses on the hotel booking itself.
Can I book room blocks and meeting space in the same checkout?
Yes. Marco consolidates rooms, meeting space, and on-property F&B packages into a single checkout, with one invoice. No more separate contracts with different hotel departments.
What if our SKO headcount changes after booking?
Marco's group rates include standard attrition clauses, so you have flexibility as your final headcount solidifies. Your advisor can walk you through the specific terms for your property.
