To ensure reliability and validity of the survey, we proceeded face-to-face and explained the purpose of the study in detail, and conducted an empirical study by administering questionnaire. Our findings show that information provision, emotional touch and stimulation of customers' favor had significantly positive effects on the trust, while recommendation and promises had negative effects. Information provision and emotional touch had positive effects on satisfaction, while recommendation and promises had negative effects. As tactics which most effectively enhance the relational satisfaction, in the correlation between resort MICE salespersons and event managers, information provision is the most effective sellers' influence tactics for resort MICE salespersons.
