This really makes it accessible to those wide eyed boutique owners that are muttering "SEO? Rate integrity? What?" =) Very well done. Solid hospitality consulting advice. I will be sending this around.. hopefully it drums up some inquiries. Cheers!

This list is a bible to give out to all hotel managers as a christmas present! I can’t wait to assess these predictions in a year from now. Do you think the innovation and outsourced rebranding mentioned here can be effective through affiliations? It seems to me that more and more partnerships are created (and joined) by independent boutique hotels, as a way to become more visible and spread widely their rebranding message. One of the most recent I have read about is Kindred Hotels: http://www.hotel-online.com/News/PR2009_4th/Oct09_Kindred.html As we are getting out of the recession, the remaining independent properties stand as survivors and need to look forward, as they are now able to switch from “survival” mode to “marketing” mode. What I wonder is: will this strategy work as a catalyser and boost business, or will it on the contrary drown the hotels in a mass of names and brands and prevent them to stand apart?
