Viewpoints / Interview
“The work by the marketing and sales team at Paris Honotel is first and foremost…teamwork with the Hotel Manager. The types of hotel customers – groups, businesspeople or tourists – are studied to set prices and yield. That is how we develop sales and hotel occupancy rates.
Who hasn’t made a purchase on the Internet? Web sales are also an essential element in getting new customers. Whether with on-line retailers or on the hotel’s own site, you have to make the most of each channel to make sure the hotel is visible on the Internet.
Lastly, each hotel is different. A hotel = a strategy.”
