Attention Tenerife Hoteliers
Recently I have been working on a marketing plan for a local hotel, here are some interesting points from that plan:
- The Internet has established itself as the main travel planning and booking channel.
- The Hyper-Interactive Travel Consumer has become your main customer.
- Engaging guests via Social Media is now a must.
- There is a growing demand for mobile travel services.
- There is a need to launch promotional campaigns simultaneously across all available marketing channels offline and online. SOURCE
Some other points to take note of:
