Do the right thing.

?We are living in the age of Corporate businesses, they are dictating price, indifferent service & attitude. I believe we are reaching the time when young entrepreneurs will take the obvious, add a generous pinch of the imagination a bucket full of courage stirred well, bring it to a boil, and provide quality service, timeliness dependability, communication, and deliver what the consumer wants.
Typically major Group Branded Corporate Hotels fall in the same category they have loyalty programmes in place to attract the interest of corporate conference organizers and the MICE market, but they are still delivering indifferent cookie-cutter, shelve-type conference packages.
The conference landscape is changing, and the modern savvy Marketer and organizers want more, they have the latitude and choose what best suits their lifestyles, they don't buy features of the product or service they don’t even buy benefits; they want to know the product and service is going to receive is creative “Hip & Stylish” genuine experiences, personal engagement, and convenience.?When looking for Conference Venues they look for original design, unique identity, local experience, recognition and focus on what’s in it for them and their consumers.
