House Of Cards Part 1

Part 1

I bought The Hotel Of Cards a one of a kind experience a multi chain of different venues in a compound.

The space is about a entire ten blocks of a city and huge condo like buildings on top of each other.

I have been doing renovating for the longest time decorating it to perfection for me at least.

���What a beautiful sight? This place is so perfect.”

“I bet boss, my name is Chris.”

“Who the hell are you Chris?”

He smiles offering his hand out for me as I take it in mine and we shake.

I press my thumb harder in to his soft palm giving it some undo pressure.

I can see him a squirm a bit closing my eyes as I channel a bit of energy.

“Will you open your heart to me and listen?”

“No….wait….I can’t……yyyyyeeeessssss”

“Excellent! I am your Master”

I guide him in to the void of his mind as he is falling under my spell, and he giggles.

His body shakes with that dopey look over taking his face and he falls back a bit.

His body shook out of control facing me a bit awkwardly as he jumps,

I take his chin in mine slowly leaving in to a kiss, a slow steady one and full out kiss.

It was a make out session so hard when my back forces forward and his on to the wall.

My body presses on to him kissing him so so slowly, and he becomes mine.

“Oooooohhhhhh Master Lawrence!”

“What are you doing to me?”

“I am enslaving you”

“No wait! Don’t fight me”

“I love you”

“I claim you forever”

“Will you be mine Chris?”

“Yyyyeesss”

“I love you”

“You are my Master”

“Master Lawrence”

“My love sire”

Part 2

Chris Heaven is the new manger of Hotel Of Cards but I am in control.

I have plans for him we sleep together that long night of kissing, sex and lust.

He enters the hall space from the shower in to the wardrobe I left him and some heavy polishing.

He is so sexy in a grey tee shirt, jeans and a empty glass.

I can smell the beer on his breath as he is greeting my guest, he is all too happy with me, and shakes his ass.

He kisses me looking so damn sexy with a hot tight ass, and I grope him.

“Master Lawrence, come here please.”

“Yes Chris”

“Please meet my brother Scott”

“Oh Sire, I love to work here”

“Oh yeah! Do you?”

“Give me your hand”

His hand meets mine grabbing hold of him tight as Chris sighs a bit jealous.

Two hands now in mine tightly grip our eyes

meet and they glow.

I tell him to focus on my eyes drawing all of his attention on me.

He leans on to me with smile licking his lips, a long kiss and Scott falls for me.

We sneak out of the room to leave Chris my main boi, race up the staircase and hit the bed.

Downstairs Chris is so jealous the rage is so high, so in love with me and he owns me.

“Scott you feel so good”

“You are perfect”

“Hardly Scott”

“You are, don’t deny it”

“Get dress now”

“Where am I going Sir?”

“You are the main server “

“Get to work”

“Take orders, bring them and dance”

“Yes sir”

“Sir Yes Sir”

“Yyyyeeeessss”

The end

Any headcanons about Jinx in the SharkTank! Au? Maybe her relationship with silco and what she gets up to in this Au?

[shark tank au]      this au is meant to be a reader au and yet all of my replies are canon character centered lmao. if you want some jinx + reader for this au let me know. but here’s a ton of powder living her best life ✌

powder appears on shark tank to pitch the sharks an entertainment business. she has a ton of original recreational game ideas that would be played with inventions of own design. there was only one slightttt problem

none of them were patented bc her inventions didn’t worked. 

so silco ripped into her real hard.

“why would you come on to national tv and be so canned about your ideas that aren’t even patented because they don’t work? what’s stopping someone smarter than you from stealing them? that was a horrible decision on your part. incredibly stupid. i’m out.”

obviously, the powder is devastated and the other sharks mortify. mel calls him out, the two exchanging words that would have to be cut from the family friendly edition airing next season.

still, despite the rest of the sharks trying to soften and boost powder’s ego, all of them went out.

vi will never forgive silco for the heartbreak he put her sister through

powder channels that rage into ambition. she wanted to prove silco wrong. 

she had to.

her plan is simple: perfect her inventions, sneak into silco’s home, impress him with her ingenious mind, hook a shark.

idk what’s crazier. powder’s line of thinking or the fact that silco is unhinged enough to say “yeah, this so determination and she’s from zaun. a chip off the old block.”

with silco’s help, powder launches an entertainment brand by the name of JINX.

he never officially adopts her. she still remains under vi’s guardianship as a minor, but she does spend an awful lot amount of time with silco and developing a familial bond. 

he refers to her as his daughter in interviews, causing one of his most popular google questions being “who is silco’s daughter?” followed by “is silco married?” and ofc the top question “why is silco a massive dick?”

vi really fucking hates him. she’s happy for her sister and it’s not like they’re relationship is that fucked up compare to canon but the man is a creep and she doesn’t want his vibes influencing powder as much as it does. vander’s chill tho. she likes him.

vi and vander + silco and powder for team tennis on the weekends

silco would force powder to go to board meetings with him and other incredibly boring events for the experience and exposure of the business world.

powder would take notes using gel pens. there’s 100′s of them lying around in any given room of silco’s home and office. she’s never out grown them, even as a young adult. she keeps a dark royal blue with sparkles on her at all times for legal documents.

she’s kept busy inventing new games that push the boundaries of safety. she still makes time to be the unofficial manger of all of silco’s social media accounts bc heaven knows he’s not creating his own content.

she has her own apartment and access to some of the best hotels but she likes to crash at other people’s places. she doesn’t do well alone and will couch hop depending on her schedule. she stays over all silco’s place a lot since he’s home more than others. 

kind of a dick to her employees. she takes a very flippant approach to business, wanting to be an inventor more than an enrapture. so when deadlines start closing in, her poor assistances and staff have to make up the slack.

OH YOOo! let’s talk knock offs !! powder is silco’s number one go to girl when it comes to product knock offs. the famous hextetch that is revolutionizing the silicon valley of runeterra? jinx inc is producing a similar product for a fraction of the cost.

it’s all about accessibly to the masses.

powder and ekko are good friends but they have a fun little business rivalry, seeing how ekko has his own side business going. they like to compare numbers and spreadsheets. sometimes things will get heated but will always end with them laughing at how stuffy the other sounds. 

ekko, laughing “you sound like silco”

jinx, blowing a raspberry “shoot me before that happens!”

Going Up?

I woke up in the hospital. I have an IV hooked up to me and I feel like I’ve been hit in the head with a frying pan. I began to sit up and I’m looking around. The room is full of windows but the blinds have all been draw shut so there’s not a lot of light. I see a big flower basket in my room that has a note on it. Another thing that I’ve noticed is that I have a one person room. Then it hits me. Holy shit, I was in an elevator with Shawn Mendes. My eyes go wide as I try to remember everything. “What the fuck is my life.” I say out loud to myself, then I look for the call button and not long after a nurse is walking in, leaving the door half way open. Shawn is standing out there, talking to someone I can’t see. He looks in at me, smiles and look back at the person. “Hey sweet heart. I would like you to look at me.” The nurse says so I do “How are you feeling?” I take a second to think “My head just hurts and I’m hungry.” she writes this down “Okay and is that all?” I nod and look back out the door. He’s gone, Shawn is gone. 

“Hello Miss Y/N. Just coming to check on you.” The male Doctor says as he walks in closing the door behind him. He’s checks my eyes and looking over the note from the nurse “So Y/N nothing too serous happened just a little hit in the head. You passed out they couldn’t get you to wake up, so Shawn made them bring you to us and we did a whole lot of tests and everything came back perfect.” I nod “What about Shawn? Was he okay?” I ask the Doctor. He smiles “Oh yeah he’s fine, he was very worried about you. He made sure we took good care of you. Even got you those flowers.” He says pointing to them “Now some people are gonna come in and talk to you about how everything that’s happened. You know legal stuff. But Brooke hear will stay in the room with you, so if you need anything let her know. She’ll try and help the best she can.” With that he left. 

“Do you want to watch the press conference?” Brooke asked grabbing the remote to the TV. “About the elevator?” “Yes Shawn is talking in it.” I nod with a small smile. She turns the TV on goes to the news channel. Shawn walks on screen and sits down at the table. Andrew his mangers is with him and you can see all the camera flashing, I can’t began to imagine the amount of people that are in that room. “Is this being filmed in the hospital?” I asked looking at the nurse she nods. The reporters are yelling Shawn’s name and he point to one the noise dies down as he speaks “Is it true a fan ran into the elevator to be with you?” reporter one asks. “The person that was in the elevator forgot their bag in the elevator that is why they ran back in and the doors shut before they could leave again. Had nothing to do with me.” Shawn says picking someone else next. “Did you at any point feel like you were in danger in the elevator?” reporter two asks “If you asking if I felt scared of the person stuck in the elevator with me, No. Now when we found out we were stuck we both panicked but we collected ourselves pretty fast after that.” Shawn picked another one, answered that question. Then the crowd go really loud and Shawn held up his hands to quite things down.

I noticed that he didn’t have his zap anymore. Making me look at my own hands where mine has remained. Complete an utter shock is the only way to describe my thoughts. It was a phone number with the words “Text me” under them. Shawn wrote down his number for the zap. What the hell. Then suddenly fear washed over me. Did he see his zap before it was gone? The thought that he could have possibly saw it made me fall into a pit of embarrassment. What was I thinking writing that down in the first place. Plus if he did see it, and didn’t do it that’s just even more embarrassing. Maybe I was dreaming a little too big, or maybe I just wrote it down for the hell of it. What if he wrote his down then saw mine and regretted putting his number down. Great I’m that creepy fan.

Then a question pulled my out of my thoughts “Why won’t the name of the girl be released?” a reporter asks Shawn looks surprised when they said ‘girl’ but Andrew quickly took over “Listen the other person involved is just as much as a victim in this as Shawn. The persons name, age and gender have been kept under wraps for a reason. For their safety it would be great if it could stay that way.” Andrew finishes. He leans into Shawn saying something in his ear then stand up and leaves. So they’re trying to protect me?

                                           ( 3 months later.)

It’s been quite some time since the elevator thing happened. Found out Shawn wanted to keep my name out so I could go back to living a normal life, Brooke was telling me how cute it was that he was so protective over me. She told me she’s felt like he liked liked me, but as cool as that might be it couldn’t be. So I didn’t text him but I did save his number in my phone. Then things went back to normal. Well up until 2 weeks after when TMZ released pictures and audio from the elevator. Which let people find out who I was and where I lived and my place of work. Which was hell to say the least. Good thing as that it’s August 3 months have passed since the whole thing. Life is getting back to normal for the most part. 

“So Y/N, what are you going to do about Shawn’s birthday party?” My best friend  May says jump and landing on my bed as she eats those rainbow sour candies. She’s kicks her feet in the air staring at me. I groan wrapping myself back in my blankets “What!” She dramatically says. Well you see after everything I needed to tell someone about it, that person is May, but when I told May in one of our ‘stay at home, drink wine, maybe get a little high, and watch movies’  nights she grabbed my phone found the contact for Shawn then texted him. I was pissed and yelling at her but then the phone went off seconds later and it was Shawn calling to make sure it was me. 

Ever since then we’ve been texting everyday and he wants me to come to his 21st birthday in LA. I told him no I couldn’t because of work, then May told our boss everything that was going on and my boss gave me a week off with pay to go. Still told Shawn I couldn’t make it because I didn’t have the money. Shawn said he already bought my ticket. Then I said I would think about it. Now it’s 2 days away and I still haven’t made up my mind. 

“Y/N just go. You have an outfit, you have the time off, you don’t need to worry about how you’re getting there. Plus Shawn really wants you to go, you guys are friends as much as you try to make it not a real thing, it is. He texting everyday even if it’s just one big long text before he goes to bed telling you about his day and asking you about yours. Or if it’s a phone call or facetime every other week maybe. He puts in so much work in your guys friendship. I hate to say it, but you own him.” May was right, and I hated that she was right. I sit up in my bed groan “You suck.” As I got out of the bed, walking into the hall to the bathroom. “So you’re going?” She yells to me and I smile to myself then “slam” the door. “Yes Bitch! I’m packing your bags right now!” She yells out making my laugh. I text Shawn, letting him know I’ll be seeing him in two days.

                                     ( Shawns Birthday Party) 

  I’m sitting on the bed in the hotel room Shawn had got for me and it’s honestly the nicest hotel room I’ve ever stayed in. I’ve been scared to touch things. So all I’ve done is change into the same three outfits over and over again, took a nap one or two times. Picking the right outfit to meet a whole bunch of famous people is hard. Like do I go bold, stay casual, or just a little more dressed up than normal? I get up to look at myself again in the mirror one more time but a knock at the door makes me jump. I walk over to the door taking in a deep breath before opening it. “Hey Y/N it’s Brian, Shawn had me come and get you. The Party started just a little bit ago, so we should get going if you’re ready.” He says with a smile. “Um I just have one question.” Brian smiles “Shoot.” I smile back “Do you think this outfit is okay?” I say looking down at the clothes on my body. “Do you feel comfortable?” He says making me look at him “Yeah?” I say kind of awkwardly “Then you look good. Now lets go if we take any longer Shawn’s gonna have someone else drag us both down to the party.” I and grab my room key from the table. “Already.” I say as we walk out the door.

The party was being held in the hotels Ball room, but it looks like it had been turned into a club for the night. Famous people everywhere, I think I just passed by Niall. My eyes we’re looking at everyone, “Does he know all these people?” I yell to Brian over the music. “Some are friends, some are just people he’s meet over the years. This Party is more for business purposes than a party.” I nod then ask myself then why am I here then? Brian takes me to a table where Alessia Cara is sitting. 

“Alessia this is Y/N, Y/N this is Alessia.” He introduces us we both extend our hand to each other. “Come sit next to me.” she says tugging my hand lightly. So I do “Shawn talks a lot about you, you’re kinda stealing my best friend you know.” She says sounding a little serious but something told me this was all a joke so I say “Can you take him back?”. Her face goes straight and now I’m thinking I’ve read the situation wrong but then she bust out in laughter. Thank God, “You know that’s the best response I’ve ever gotten from someone.” I smile at her, and laugh a little as well. “You know what, I like you. Want a drink?” She ask and Brian gets a phone call and steps away for a second. “So now that He’s gone, Do you like Shawn?” She asks and I’m shocked and don’t really know how to respond. “Um, Well he’s amazing, so yeah I guess.” she looks at me with squinted eyes “No like do you like him like him?” my eyes widen “Do I have a crush on him?”  I ask back, she face palms “Girl you’re just as bad as he is, Yes that’s what I’m asking.” I think for a second “Yes I do.” She smiles and nods “Good.”. Brain comes back “Y/N I’m gonna go get Shawn we’ll be here soon.” He says leaving me with Alessia. 

Well soon isn’t soon, soon is 2 am when I’m shit face drunk with Alessia talking about what color of light in the room is the best one. “No the green one is just so pretty though.” Alessia says as her head rest on my shoulder “But look at that purple, It’s just so peaceful.” We giggle to ourselves. “Maybe they’re both the best ones, because all of them are the best ones!” Alessia says sitting up really fast. She almost falls out of her seat be I grab her arm. “Oh, that could have been bad.” We laugh together. “Hello.” I hear Shawn say from behind me and I turn to look at him. He’s smiling “You know soon isn’t 3 hours later right?” I say pointing a finger at him. He smiles and asked “Are you drunk?” 

“So what if she is?” Alessia says coming to my defense leaning on me, clearly drunk also. “Nothing wrong with that, I mean it is a party.” Shawn says laughing to himself, taking a seat next to me, he puts his arm around the back of my chair. I can feel his skin touch my back wear the silk tank top hangs low. It send shivers through out my body. I turn to look at him and he’s talking to Alessia, they’re laughing and smiling. He’s not even playing attention to me but I can’t help it. I reach out a touch his cheek. He stops talking and looks over at me “yes?” He smiles “You’re beautiful.” I says rubbing my thumb over his cheekbone. Brian laughs and Shawn blushes.

“Alessia how many drink did you guys have?” Brain asks trying not to let his laugh take over his words. “About 7.” “Oh that’s not too bad” Shawn begins to say “each.” She finishes. Brain and Shawn’s eyes go wide “oh okay.” Shawn says grabbing my hand from his face and holds on to it. I smile to myself. They talk for a little longer, I’m not paying any attention just watching Shawn’s hands play with mine. I’m getting tired now and I yawn. “Let’s get you to your room.” Shawn says standing up still holding my hand helping my off the chair and I still almost fall to my knees. “Whoa! A little more drunk than I thought.” Shawn says putting an arm around my waist. “Actually a lot more.” I say with a giggle placing my hand on his chest for more support. He laughs at me, “Come on lets get you going.” I turn to face Alessia and wave goodbye to her with a big cheesy smile on my face, she does the same back.

We mange to get out without being stopped much. Shawn is still holding on to me, but I’ve gotten better at walking and could walk on my own now. Something tells me Shawn knows this but doesn’t care. We’re walking to the elevator “Hey remember that’s time we got trapped in one of these things.” I say as Shawn presses the floor number. He chuckles to himself “Yes I do remember.” I groan leaning my head on his side “It was horrible!” I say. “I don’t think it was that bad, I got to meet and get to know you.” He says, I know I’m blushing but I look up at him anyways. “You think meeting me was good?” I ask he nods smiling “You’re pretty great.” I blush deepens making my smile. Then the elevator doors open and we step out. 

We walk down the hallway to my room, when we get to the door I turn to face him “Did you ever see your zap?” He smiles this tells me he did “You’re Drunk, we can talk about this in the morning.” He laughs trying to avoid this topic. “Oh no, Listen I’m sorry I only wrote it down because... Well I don’t actually know why.” I say feeling my face warm up from embarrassment. So I try to hide it with my hands. Shawn laughs, shakes his head, and places his hands on my shoulders. “Y/N” He starts “You’re right, I’m drunk and I should really get going to bed now.” I say really fast, turning around grabbing the key card from my back pocket. I open the door but stop when Shawn says “You know the rules of the zap game never tells you when we had to do the dare.” I turn to him “I mean that is why you took so long to text me right?” Shit he got me on the one. I still don’t turn around and I begin to push the door over. Hoping to get away from the question, but stop once again.

“I am going to kiss you. Not just because of the Zap thing, but because I want to.” I turn to look at him. He smiles and licks his lips then laughs “So you should get to bed and I’m gonna come down in around noon tomorrow, and we’re gonna go on a date.” He says with confidence but then is falls for a second and he says “If you want to.” I smile “Yes that sounds nice.” Shawn smiles bigger and he nods stepping back. “I’ll see you in the morning.” he says leaning forward to kisses my cheek. Then he steps back again, gives me a thumbs up and walk back to the elevator. I step into the room and smile to myself.

I plan on doing a part 3 but would you guys want it? If you have any requests send them in, would love to do some. 😁❤️

[avengersaremyforte]

I got tagged by @lunaticonice to post 10 photos in my camera roll to describe myself. Do you know how hard it was to only pick 10?! Also right off the bat I’m a horrible speller and really bad about not looking at what I’m typing. So I make a lot of mistakes and auto correct is my worst enemy but my best tool in spelling so sorry for the mistakes.

I have a really good green thumb. Most of the succulents you see I’ve grown from leaves. I’m a proud plant mom

I like to diy stuff and refurbish furniture. In this case old palettes that I sanded down repainted and made into my bed. Im really crafty and like to draw and repaint stuff or repurpose things(that includes clothes). The thrift store is my best friend!

I’m um... extremely lucky. That Moped is a prize I won at a manger meeting for my job that I wasn’t even supposed to attend. My manger was out of town so I went in her place and won this thing. And it doesn’t stop there. I’ve been to multiple conventions where I want to meet youtubers or famous people and somehow I do it effortlessly. Like ask my friends I literally said one time, as we were leaving a con, how I was sad I didn’t get to see a youtuber before we left and we turned the corner to go to the parking garage and BOOM! That youtuber was there heading to the convention. Not to mention at my old job at the hotel I meet contless NBA players and singers all the time. Like you wanna meet someone famous hang out with me.

I took a class on Video editing because I wanted to try something new and maybe start a YouTube channel. But now that I took this class I actually want to try and shoot to be a video editor for The Dallas stars. Because I see the intermission videos at the games and think, I can easily do that, why am I not out there doing it. So that’s my goal for 2020. Have enough of a portfolio to try and get that rolling somewhere.

In this picture I was in Pittsburgh for a Stars game go figure and found a out door skating rink around a Christmas tree. I don’t like Christmas that much my family runied it for me but I love winter and all things related to it. And I’ve skating is one of my favorite things to do. And this moment was magical and the best part of the whole entire trip!

This picture is a double whammy because picking just 10 was hard. I’m putting this on here because I’m so proud of how far I’ve come at makeup. Like I’m not beauty guru good but I’m getting there. I love doing my makeup, especially eyeshadow, because it gives me a chance to show the world my artistic skills. And I loved this look especially because I wore it to pride. Because I’m bisexual 🏳️‍🌈

I love to travel! Especially spontaneous trips. When it comes to me and traveling I’m more of a go to the place you wanna go then figure out what you’re doing as you do it kind of person. Like my first major trip to Colorado I drove 9 hrs from Oklahoma to get there had no plans other than I have to be back in a week. In fact I was actually supposed to go to Arizona and Utah for the majority of that trip! I only went to Denver just to see the mountains. But I loved Colorado so much I stayed the whole week. I booked hotels as I went and even slept in my car on the way back. This picture was taken from my last trip to Colorado at the first of November And the only plan I had then was to go see the stars play, then I had five days to do whatever else i wanted.

& 9. I’m a proud mom of 5 beautiful fur babies who couldn’t all be in one picture because the cats hate the dogs! It’s actually a miracle that all three cats where in one photo and that happen today! In order from left to right you have Prowl the cats grey one shoes the oldest (10) and hates the dogs but love the other cats. He runs the show around here and my friends call him Mob boss. Next is Hope the youngest (2) she is also the most destructive cat I have ever had, in more ways than one. She chews on walls, scratches furniture, destroys blinds, she even scratched the cat tree so bad that she tore a hole in one of the posts and made it collapse. She’s also the only animal I’ve had that had to have a major surgery (she got he tail shut in a door and had to have 2” of it cut off). She likes the dogs though. But she also destructs the balance in this house. (We has two cats and two dogs. Two boys two girls, perfect balance before her) Because the cats next to her, Sparkel (5) hates her. They fight constantly so that’s why it’s a miracle they’re laying next to each other. Sparkle also tolerates the dogs from a distance. And now my puppies. The pure breed husky is named Sophie (6) she’s a husky in every way If you have huskies you know. She’s also the mom of the half husky half lab Snoopy (5) the happy accident. Snoopy is special. He’s the only animal I have had since birth and it might sound corny but we share a special bond because of it. He’s a certified service dog and an all around good boy that has the best worst traits of both of his breeds. If I could take him with me everywhere I would. And this section has gotten way to big so moving on to number 10 -

I’m a Stars fan.

And I’m currently mad at them right now so catch me waxing poetry about them on another day.

Yeah so as per usual I ranted long enought about myself.

So yeah, now is the part where I tag other people to do this thing. If you’ve done it before I’m sorry I don’t know who to tag so... @xr-ox @otter-solutions @darthbenn @bisexualtylerseguin @saucerfulofsins @my-adequate-blog @stupidsexyseguin @jakeoettinger @captainpetty @beckygs

The hotel industry is extremely competitive, and several different hotels will often be competing for the same potential customers. As a result, it is crucial that hotels use a variety of marketing strategies to make themselves visible and to promote their hotel as the best available choice.

Below, listed are seven fundamental hotel marketing strategies, to ensure they remain competitive.

1.  Make your hotel brand website a visual treat for visitors

Your hotel website is an important marketing tool, while also serving as the single most important distribution channel, as it is the only one that can be used to generate direct sales. Through your website, visitors should be able to find out important information about your hotel, see photos of hotel rooms, and make bookings. It goes without saying that you should, therefore, ensure that you have an efficient booking engine installed.

Your chosen booking engine should be easy to use and should require as few clicks as possible to make a booking. The website design should be visually appealing and easy to navigate, with clear tabs to make bookings and fast loading times. It is also imperative that your website is optimized for viewing on mobile and tablet devices.

2. Use Search Engine Optimization (SEO) best practices

Having a website is one thing, but its value is limited if it is not easy to find. For this reason, search engine optimization is extremely important. By optimizing your website with the use of keywords and other SEO tactics, you can boost its visibility on search engines like Google and Bing and attract more visitors.

In addition to researching high-value keywords related to your hotel and placing them in content, headings and image ALT tags, you have to use other SEO best practices. Make sure your business listings are all consistent and use the same format; claim your Google My Business page, in order to reap local SEO benefits; and write engaging, high-quality meta descriptions, which will draw search engine users towards your website.

3. Market your USPs

When it comes to building hotel marketing strategies, it is vital that you have something which makes your hotel unique, or which makes it stand out from the pack. There are many different approaches you can take to this, but a great way to market your hotel is to create a clear identity and convey that identity throughout all of your marketing channels.

Why should people stay at your hotel, rather than a rival hotel? Is your building unique? Do you have an interesting back-story? Is your service a cut above the rest? Do you have a different pricing strategy from your rivals? Is your location special? Does your hotel have a particular theme? Are your rooms decorated in a way that makes them stand out? You need to establish exactly what your USP is and make sure everybody else knows it too.

4. Connect with Online Travel Agencies and GDS

Online travel agents are an important distribution channel and the likes of Booking.com, Expedia and Hotels.com are great for generating increased exposure. This will allow guests who may not have encountered your hotel through other channels to find you and book a hotel room. Today, the majority of mobile bookings come through OTAs.

Furthermore, a presence on global distribution systems (GDS) will ensure your hotel is available for travel agents to book for their customers. This is especially important because global distribution systems have an enormous reach and will potentially give you access to customers in parts of the world you are not currently able to target effectively through your various other marketing methods.

5. Work closely with local authorities

It is also worth speaking to your local tourist board to find out the various ways they can assist with promoting your hotel to visitors in the area. Similarly, communicate with any local business authorities and see if they would be willing to promote your hotel as a venue for conferences, training sessions or other business functions.

To achieve success here, it is important that you produce and distribute plenty of marketing literature to the various local authorities and that this literature is eye-catching, professional and persuasive. You should also make sure that you are listed on relevant websites and your listings are as a complete and up-to-date as possible.

6. Proactively utilize social media

In the modern, digital world, social media is one of the single best inbound marketing tools available to hotel owners and marketers. As well as allowing you to post promotional posts to an established audience, paid advertising on social networks like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram enable you to reach out beyond this audience and target other people in specific locations, or with specific interests or qualities.

Online Reputation Management is a very important aspect in the hospitality business. Social media competitions can be a great way to spread the word about your hotel, while Twitter hashtags can help hotels to spark conversation and keep it all in one place. Moreover, LinkedIn is a great tool for keeping in touch with business partners and high-value clients and can be used as part of a social selling strategy.

7. Use content marketing progressively

Finally, a content marketing strategy will ensure fresh content is regularly added to your website and can be used to draw visitors in or keep them coming back. Additionally, content marketing can be used as part of your SEO strategy and this content can also be shared across the full spectrum of social media platforms to increase views.

Examples of content you can produce include a blog, which should be updated regularly, web articles, which can be used as part of a link building strategy, and video content, which can be more overtly promotional. Generally speaking, the best content is useful, shareable and either help its audience or provides valuable information.

Conclusion

With the hospitality industry being so competitive, a strong and diverse marketing mix is essential. It is especially important that you work to differentiate your hotel, optimize your website for maximum search engine visibility, have a presence on GDS and OTAs, and use things like social media and content marketing to attract attention.
