About this Event
This course is with the Cornwall Hospitality Collective and has been funded by Experience.
Cornwall has experienced a rocky few years with hospitality being hit by extensive costs and also a change in buying behaviour and there are more on the horizon to prepare for. Equally there are opportunities to grab.
It's time to think differently about what you offer, giving value for money and relaying that to a customer that has the money to spend. In this session we will explore barriers that the group is finding and look into the future about the changing customer expectations for food and drink and accommodation. We will investigate moving our planning further ahead to get earlier booking and season extension. We will also look at the overall marketplace and see where being more niche in your hospitality offering can benefit.
All of this will be set alongside your strategic channels of social media, websites, traditional marketing and email.
