Social Media = Conversations with #Hotel Guests

Social conversations help differentiate your hotel + the positive advantages of your locale expertise.  Most hotels are using social media just to push out sales messages.  Smart hoteliers use social to engage guests in conversation - prior to stay, in destination (key = mobile users on Facebook), poststay.

This brief presentation highlights best content mix....relevant for guests + shareable to THEIR social networks.

I thank Corentin ComBalbert for putting it together.
