According to Ms. Verret, today’s revenue management challenges are “extremely difficult in terms of forecasting, predicting and stimulating demand.” Don’t miss this opportunity to learn best practices for discounting, distribution strategies and managing your market segment mix.
- Hear best practices to REDUCE COSTS: In the Reducing Operational Costs program, our three panelists: Mike Kaminski from the Chula Vista Resort, Matt Matenaer with Focus on Energy and Neil Locke from Neil Locke & Associates will share expert advice on how to reduce energy costs, control or reduce purchasing costs PLUS practical advice on how to actually implement it all. Bring your questions and ask these experts how you can apply these strategies to your property!
- FREE TRADE SHOW: Monday afternoon you’ll have the opportunity to shop more than 70 hospitality-specific booths. If you’re interested in new quotes on your insurance needs, looking for affordable linens or upgrading your technology, it’s all here at Wisconsin’s only lodging-specific Trade Show.
Whether you drive in Monday morning or come early & join us for the NEW Sunday Night Challenge, the full Conference wraps up Tuesday by Noon so you can be back on property that day – Give yourself the tools you need for a successful 2010!
