Abstract:
This paper shows the possibilities of business-to-business-research to outline the business travel market. The Business Travel Monitor, a yearly research project, covering 4000 business-establishments, creates additional ways for market segmentation for suppliers in the business travel market. It offers new entries for marketing-auditing and marketing-planning. Finally an upgrading of the reliability of the data is attained by interviewing two persons per establishment, the business traveller himself and the booker of the business trip.
