“If hoteliers lack a consistent, integrated marketing message across all channels, they may not reach consumers in the right channels at the right time, and in turn, lose bookings,” says VIZERGY President & CEO Joe Hyman. “Hotels and resorts need to remind travel shoppers – in each channel they use – that the hotel is here. That reinforced exposure across all channels certainly contributes to increased bookings.” “This white paper with VIZERGY and Tim Peter is a valuable tool our members and the industry can use to inspire marketing and fuel sales, which are core to our mission,” says HSMAI President & CEO Robert A. Gilbert. “We know that integrated marketing is an important issue in the industry that needs to be addressed, and are confident this paper will benefit hoteliers.” About VIZERGY VIZERGY is an award-winning website development and Internet marketing company specializing in providing innovative digital solutions for the hospitality industry.
