September 29, 2009 – First it was the new Trump Kids for the Junior Jet Set and Trump Baby Attaché program for younger visitors at Trump Tower. Now Trump is launching another program aimed at the business sector. The Trump Express Meetings program is designed to accommodate smaller groups of businessmen and women, usually up to 15 at the smaller Trump Hotels and as many as 50 at the larger ones. For Trump Tower in Chicago, meetings of up to 25 persons can take advantage of this new service offered.

According to a profile in Hotels Magazine, the service is broken down into categories by the time of day or evening you want to schedule your meeting. The Trump Express Day Meeting is suited for all-day meetings. Breakfast in the form of pastries and coffee or tea is served. Lunch consists of an assortment of soups and sandwiches, plus there is a sweet afternoon snack available. Drinks such as bottled water, sodas and coffee are available at all times. This costs between $75 and $145 per meeting attendee.

Trump Lunch I is as the title implies, just for a lunch meeting. Soups, sandwiches, salads, dessert, coffee and tea are served for $40 to $80 per person. If you opt for the Trump Lunch II you get a bigger menu for your lunch meal and this will run about $60 to $95 per meeting attendee.

Finally, the Trump Happy Hour will get you two hours at an open bar, gourmet hors d’ oeuvres, both hot and cold, plus some salad options. This costs about $45 to $114 per person.

No matter which package you pick, you’ll be able to use the meeting room for free. Chicago’s Trump is advertising a discount on the use of their audiovisual equipment plus 15% off treatments at The Spa at Trump and 10% off anything you order at the Rebar lounge. This program and the discounts are good through April 30, 2010.

And while this may help boost business at the hotel portion, Trump is most likely hoping to net a few sales at their Chicago real estate development. The competition for buyers of Chicago Luxury Condos is pretty stiff, and Trump seems to be trying anything except actually lowering prices.
