Hotel Sales Professionals Can Begin to Harness the Power of Web 2.0 with
a New eLearning Course from Newmarket International, Inc. and
Carol Verret and Associates Consulting & Training

 


Portsmouth, NH � February 17, 2009 - Newmarket International, Inc., and Carol Verret and Associates Consulting & Training announce the release of �Sales in a Web 2.0 World�.   This is the first in a series of hospitality eLearning courses available on www.HoteLearning.com.

Because customers now use different methods to locate and select hotels, hotel sales departments have had to change their processes. In this course, industry expert Carol Verret will teach you how to use the power of Web 2.0 for new business development in the corporate, association, and SMERFE market segments. 

�In these tough economic times, hotel sales people need tools to refine their sales processes in order to target more prospects with the potential to generate revenue for their hotels,� says Carol Verret. �We are very excited to partner with Newmarket International to create this engaging and effective eLearning course.� 

�The adoption rate of Web 2.0 by consumers continues to grow. The internet allows consumers to connect, collaborate, and buy goods and services � including hotel guestrooms and function space. To stay competitive as a hotel sales manager, you need to know where your customers are shopping online and establish sales practices that take advantage of the Internet.� said Jay Krupp, Director of Educational and Custom Services for Newmarket International.   �The interactive format of the Sales in a Web 2.0 World course provides an engaging environment for any hospitality sales professional to learn strategies that will provide immediate results.�
