Another idea would be to join websites like expedia or travelocity if you are not partnered with them. Many more people are shopping online for deals now that price comparison is just a click away. You may have to offer discounted rooms but your rooms occupied ration should increase by enough to be more profitable. Hosting events is also a major way to advertise a hotel brand. You sponsor a major sporting event, convention, or concert. An example would be like Motel Six sponsors the professional bowling association and hosts events. Get in on trends like texas hold em poker or the x games to reach out to younger generations. You need to find out if the costs will be worth the revenue gains to take on a sponsorship. Last I would look into other forms of transportation to hook up with because moving people=people who need a hotel. Look at advertsing on trains, buses, or boats in europe and asia. If you get a good job and make it to the top reward me with a job in the future. what you need to do is advertise with international airlines. you need to get the hotel in the airline magazines and featured at airports. this way when people travel to a foreign nation and dont know where to stay they will have your brand already in their mind and it will seem familiar to them. they will choose your brand more often because its familiar. you could also offer discount coupons in those shopping magazines on planes or in magazines and newspapers at major airports(JFK, La Guardia, O’Hare, LAX) .
