Passion for sales and the online world, as it is not getting any smaller. You have one chance to sell your hotel, resort, restaurant, spa, ac company or any business online before the potential customer moves on to your competitor. Photography and video are so vital these days to sell your property. Updated? Relevant? Marketable?
I have always had a strong sales initiative. You need group business layered in with transient, all year long.
I started by selling numerous items on Ebay, using correct content / verbiage and enticing photos. Here I realized how important in today’s online world, with the phones emerging to everything BUT calling you, that a potential customer is making more and more decisions online than ever before.
As this world wide web emerges with new technology, platforms, and opportunity, companies must be on top of all of this, daily. Bottom line…critical to be part of all this action.
Spending a lot of time in hotels when I was little, thinking how cool it was that you can mess up your room and when you come back after a long day traveling, your room is as good as new. Knowing I did not have to make my bed made me love hotels like never before.
