Groups of approximately 20-25 students will arrive by bus at
the participating hotels and be at the properties in the

they are not our future employees for next year, it is time

Tourism
is a strong force in the hospitality industry in Houston
with conservative estimate of 300,000 room nights per year
and an estimated impact of in excess of $291 million to our
economy. The Greater Houston Convention & Visitors Bureau
has launched two initiatives to help strengthen the positive
perception of Houston as a destination and further stimulate
tourism in the City.
The Houston CityPass offers a wide range of access to
Houston’s unique personality and attractions covering a
variety of areas including history, art, sciences, and
distinctive characters.
Come join
us as Ms. Susan Wilson, Vice President of Communications
with City Pass, gives an overview of the new program as well
as how Houston area hotels can partner with the CityPass to
further increase Tourism in our City.
Ms.
Holly Clapham-Rosenow, Vice President of Marketing with the
Greater Houston Convention & Visitors Bureau, began a
marketing campaign known as “My Houston” a little over two
years ago. This program focuses on the positive aspects of
Houston as seen through the eyes of celebrities that are
native Houstonians. Covered in countless publications, this
campaign is becoming the cornerstone of Houston’s image.
Holly will elaborate on how it can be used and incorporated

ALEX
BRENNAN-MARTIN
“The
Simple Truth For Your Business”
Famed
Restaurateur Alex Brennan-Martin, owner of Brennan’s of
Houston
, presents an engaging recounting of how he took his
acclaimed restaurant team through the process of
discovering the “Simple Truth” about their business, a
process which subsequently became a best-selling business
book.
Alex says, “Contrary to belief, hospitality is
not about the hotel or food service business, rather it is
the human connection that holds the service chain
together, and what builds a successful business.” He
explains that by discovering “The Simple Truth” of
one’s business – the defining characteristic that sets
it apart from others in its industry – the emotional
connection your customer has with the brand – a
foundation is created and a focus will exist for every
action and decision made within the business.”

Unlimited
Sales for Limited Service
with
Karen Pena
Selling hospitality in
this fast paced technological world is difficult for hotels that
have a sales person for every given market, but seems almost
impossible for those who have very little or no sales staff at all.
With competition at an all time high and an uncertain, day-to-day
economy, it is imperative that limited service facilities
aggressively and persistently promote their visibility and
communicate their value to the customer. Karen Pena has
developed a simple yet effective program to improve the frequency of
customer contact and enhance the message to targeted niche markets
even when resources are sparse. This three hour course will
include the following topics:
-
Finding your true
niche (Branding)
-
9 Tips to Value
Selling (Small hotel/Big benefits)
-
Selling your staff and
staffing to sell
-
Networking (Technology
vs. face-to-face)
-
Maximizing visibility
with minimum time
-
Quick ways to
customize
