The Hotel Business is your first love and selling the hotel is a close second.

• Be Someone that Asks -- knowing that you have a competitive landscape, be sure you are asking for the business so that you can exceed revenue expectations (and profit goals!)
• Be Diverse in your Efforts -- solicit, negotiate and book new and repeat business using multiple channels such as outside sales calls, telemarketing and social media.
• Be a Community Presence -- represent your hotel in the local community and be seen as resource when the local community needs to plan an event.
• Be a Hotel Presence -- be sure you know, support and celebrate the hotel's staff as it takes a team to ensure success.
