Jim Krotz
I grew up in the heart of the Midwest, in the great state of Iowa. I'm happily married and have a daughter at the University of Iowa—Go Hawks! I've spent nearly 30 years in media sales, with 19 of those years at Meetings Today. Honestly, I can't think of a better job—working with travel professionals and getting the chance to travel myself is incredibly rewarding. There's nothing quite like connecting our dedicated readers with our clients and seeing the amazing results. Outside of work, I love traveling, golfing, fishing, boating, and spending time with family and friends. At Meetings Today, we're more like a family, and I truly enjoy working with each and every one of my colleagues.

I live in beautiful Marin County, CA (SF Bay area) and love it! My daughter just gave me a grandson 6 months ago which is amazing, but they live back on the east coast so I don't see them as much as I'd like. My son lives in SF and I'm so proud of both my kids! I've been in the media industry for over 30 years with the vast majority being in B2B travel. Having worked with several industry brands Meetings Today is by far the best- I love our products and team. But it's the great relationships I've made in the travel industry over the years that make me LOVE my job- I've got such great clients and I love working with them to help drive meetings their way!

I was born in Boston, and my wife and I raised our 2 (now married) kids in New Jersey before moving to North Carolina, where we built a home. Living on the NC/SC border, just 30 minutes from Myrtle Beach and 10 minutes from the Sunset Beach shoreline, we truly love the lifestyle here. I've enjoyed a 35+ year career in the media industry, with many of those years representing hospitality media. Since my first "newspaper" sales job, I have taken pride in understanding a client's business and finding ways to help. Building and creating relationships is what I find natural...and that has led to many lifelong friendships.
I know I'm lucky when I say that I LOVE waking up each day to my job, the associates I work with and all the clients I am privileged to assist and help. And on that rare day that might be "long"...I like to enjoy a glass of wine from Provence to cap the day!

I've been working in the meetings industry for the past three years, and it's been an exciting journey that began when I discovered a passion for planning, connecting people, and creating seamless advertising opportunities for our clients. Since then, I've loved every opportunity to grow in this fast-paced, dynamic field.
Outside of work, I've been married to my husband, Mike, for 20 years, and together we stay busy keeping up with our two amazing kids, Kennedy (16) and Kannon (11). Both are deeply involved in sports, which means our schedules are full—but we wouldn't have it any other way! We're a family that thrives on teamwork, energy, and making the most of every moment.
