MARKETING & SALES FOR HOTELS AND RESORTS

Marketing and Sales are strategic departments in the life of a hotel.
The task of the Marketing and Sales department is the maximisation of a hotel's revenue by developing strategies and business plans to increase revenue. The responsibility of the Marketing and Sales department is also on verticals such as the room department, event space, wellness centre, restaurants, bars, etc., again to maximise revenue.

The activities involve the design and development of marketing plans to support sales strategies. The team must consist of several specialists capable of filling all needs. By way of example, marketing activities cover online and offline, thus, both digital marketing and traditional marketing. Likewise, the sales department is involved in direct online and offline sales and distribution via OTAs - Online Travel Agencies - and GDSs - Global Distribution System - as well as via traditional travel agencies and tour operators. Among offline activities, participation in trade fairs, B2B meetings, and targeted industry events can also be included in Marketing and Sales.
