In the intricate tapestry of the #hotelindustry, a #brand is the compass that guides travelers on a transformative journey of trust, belonging, and cherished memories. It is the custodian of a promise, an emblem of #excellence that extends far beyond a mere logo or name. Much like a cherished family crest, a brand embodies a #legacy of values, service #standards, and a commitment to creating moments of profound significance for guests. It serves as a beacon of reassurance, offering travelers a sense of familiarity and belonging, much like a reunion with an old friend in a foreign land. A strong #brand is not just a name; it's an assurance of #quality, a symbol of #hospitality, and a warm embrace that welcomes guests into a world of comfort, care, and heartfelt experiences. In this realm of hospitality, a brand's place in #customerservice is akin to a trusted companion, ensuring that every guest's stay is not just a sojourn but a chapter in a beautiful story of #hospitality and genuine connection. https://influentialke.com/ #CustomerServiceWeek #CSW2023 #CustomerAppreciation #ServiceExcellence #CustomerLove #ThankYouCustomers #CXWeek #CustomerCare #SupportHeroes #CelebrateCustomers #CustomerRelationship #CustomerExperience #CustomerEngagement #CustomerSatisfaction #ClientRelations #CustomerCentric #CustomerFeedback #BuildingTrust #CustomerLoyalty #ProductQuality #ProductShowcase #ProductFeatures #CRM#CustomerService #ServiceQuality #ServiceExperience #LuxuryTravel #Hospitality #BrandIdentity #BrandStory #BrandBuilding #BrandStrategy #BrandAwareness #BrandDevelopment #BrandMarketing #BrandImage #BrandValues #BrandExperience

📍 The Power of Small Place Branding in Hospitality. In the world of hospitality, big cities like London and Paris often steal the spotlight. But there's something magical about lesser-known destinations. It's like discovering an incredible band before they hit the big time. This is the essence of small place branding—a chance to delve deep into the unique character of an area. Targeted Appeal Over Broad Interest. Brands like Brixton Brewery have shown that focusing on what makes a small place special can give a brand broad appeal. They're not trying to be everything to everyone; they're speaking to a specific audience that resonates with their core story. The Importance of Exclusion to Grow. This mindset is often seen in challenger brands in the hospitality sector. They dig deep into what makes them unique and focus on a specific audience. It's an exercise in exclusion, but one that allows for genuine connection and engagement. Storytelling is Key. Whether it's a small brewery or a lesser-known travel destination, the power of storytelling cannot be overstated. It's those hidden, fascinating details that create a compelling narrative. And in today's competitive market, a compelling narrative is what sets you apart. For hospitality businesses, especially those in less well-known areas, the lesson is clear: Authentic storytelling is not just a marketing strategy; it's the cornerstone of brand identity. It's time to look inward, discover those unique details, and share them with the world. #branding #hospitalityindustry #citymarketing #brandstrategy

In the #hotelindustry, service is the exquisite tapestry that transforms a mere stay into a cherished memory. It's the invisible hand that orchestrates #comfort and #luxury, like a skilled conductor leading a symphony of experiences. Service isn't just a task; it's a heartfelt #commitment to anticipating and exceeding guests' desires, making them feel not just welcomed but genuinely cared for. It's the personal touch that turns a room into a #sanctuary and a meal into a gastronomic #adventure. Like a gracious host, exceptional service crafts an environment where every guest feels like an honored friend, creating #heartwarming moments that linger long after checkout. In this industry, service is not just a practice; it's the very essence that defines a hotel's character, leaving an indelible mark on the souls of those it serves, making the place of service in #customerservice within the #hotelindustry a source of enchantment and lasting fondness. https://influentialke.com/ #CustomerServiceWeek #CSW2023 #CustomerAppreciation #ServiceExcellence #CustomerLove #ThankYouCustomers #CXWeek #CustomerCare #SupportHeroes #CelebrateCustomers #CustomerRelationship #CustomerExperience #CustomerEngagement #CustomerSatisfaction #ClientRelations #CustomerCentric #CustomerFeedback #BuildingTrust #CustomerLoyalty #CRM#CustomerService #ServiceQuality #ServiceExperience ##LuxuryTravel #Hospitality #CustomerService# TravelExperience #RoomWithAView #FamilyFriendly #SpaDay #AdventureTravel #PetFriendly #Sustainability #BusinessTravel #RomanticGetaway #Staycation

In a market that, although destined for increasing concentration by groups and chains, is still strongly characterised by the independence of hotels, such as the Greek hospitality market, it is not always easy for individual establishments to stand out and place themselves profitably. To remain competitive, marketing experts agree, it is crucial to shape one's brand and communicate it accordingly. Orientation - Knowledge and Goals- First of all, it is essential to take stock of one's identity: knowing one's history, the key characteristics of one's personality, one's product and the services offered is the starting point for defining the contours of one's brand. Likewise, it is important to clearly focus on who your customers are, their profile, their needs, preferences and expectations, taking one point for granted: you cannot please everyone. Positioning yourself clearly implies, of necessity, the elimination of certain customer types and scope, but it is also what allows you to be more focused on the target guests of your offer. Identity identity is also what helps you remain consistent over time without necessarily having to keep up with all the trends of the moment: keeping up with the times and updating your offer accordingly is fundamental, but doing so without a strategy risks seeing your brand 'go out of fashion' too quickly. In the same way, one can decide to find a way to distinguish oneself from the others .... even by implementing eccentric positioning and communication choices: in this case, however, one must not forget that the hotel guest always wants to feel somehow 'at home' and that a certain sense of 'familiarity' must always be preserved. Line to follow The consistency of the positioning - and thus its effectiveness - ultimately stems from the formation of the team. The fact that all members of the team have a clear understanding of the values behind each of the hotel's operational choices allows them to move with the guest in an aligned manner at all times: one of the best calling cards for a hotel that wants to be remembered by its costumer.

Reality Marketing Traditionally, the hotel industry has lured guests in with fairytale descriptions and fantasy photos, hoping they won’t notice the grim reality when they arrive. That tactic doesn’t work today because it will lead to a backlash of bad reviews. You must strive to ensure that your brand story is consistent with guest's stories. The trend today is reality marketing..... being so honest and authentic that you leave ample opportunities to exceed expectations, thereby creating advocates who help spread the word.

3moLoved that last takeaway about being cross disciplinary! I think the best marketers are those who have other interests outside of the industry and can cross pollinate ideas between them!
