Fastline Media Group, a media company offering 22 catalogs and the largest database of agricultural equipment online, chose CLI Groups to help bring its annual sales incentive program to the next level.
Las Vegas Incentive Program Experts
When the executive assistant to Fastline Media Group’s CEO contacted CLI Groups, she had already selected ARIA Las Vegas as the host hotel for the 50-person group. She knew the group wanted to offer an unforgettable, seamless experience within budget, but needed a Las Vegas event planner to bring together the extra details.
CLI Groups has executed hundreds of Las Vegas incentive programs since 2004. Our team got to work to coordinate the group’s restaurant, team-building, airport transfers, group photo, and branded welcome gifts.
Engage:
Restaurants & Las Vegas Venue Selection
The majority of the group was traveling in from the Midwest and preferred a high-quality steak restaurant without inflated hotel prices. CLI Groups was able to work with existing contacts at Prime Steakhouse, the premiere steakhouse at Bellagio Hotel & Casino, to offer guests a prix fixe menu that worked within budget.
Not only did our team coordinate a crowd-pleasing menu within budget, but we also used our local expertise to make the experience more convenient for guests. Typically, Bellagio transportation operations permit mini bus drop-off’s and pick-up’s from the Tour Lobby Entrance only. This requires guests to walk a greater distance through the hotel and casino to the restaurant.
However, because of our rockstar transportation & event operations team, our savvy event planner talked with Bellagio valet workers following dinner and were able to pick-up from the North Entrance instead of the Bellagio Tour Lobby. Entrance This pleased Fastline Media Group’s guests with a shorter walk following dinner.
It’s the little pieces of local knowledge and connections like this that can make all the difference when hosting a Las Vegas event. At CLI Groups, we go above and beyond to make our clients’ experiences unforgettable.
Team-Building with a Philanthropic Twist
In the spirit of giving back, Fastline Media Group desired a team-building event within their Las Vegas hotel that had a charity element. CLI Groups and one of our preferred partners worked together to bring in a Build-a-Bear event complete with ice breakers and a fun activity. The group created bears, rocking chairs, and horses and donated items to children through the Nevada Children’s Heart Foundation.
ARIA Las Vegas, the selected hotel for Fastline, offers brand-new, state-of-the-art convention and meeting space which opened in Spring 2018. With our event held just one week following the opening, CLI Groups worked carefully to protect all hotel furniture and equipment to relieve liability of our client.
Branded Welcome Gifts
We at CLI Groups believe first impressions are as important as final impressions. That’s why we helped our client create branded welcome gifts for all guests. Our event staff took on the hotel room drop coordination so our client had one less detail to worry about.

No other destination management company offers the attention to detail, clean vehicles, and professional drivers we offer.
