Is Your Business Ready for the Projected Upswing in Travel?

Hey, guys. Jesse Cole, founder of fans first entertainment and owner of the Savannah bananas and I am fired up to be back for the hospitality roundtable on Monday. And we're talking about the comeback baby of travelers. Customers, yes, people coming back to the hospitality industry, it is coming, we can feel it, we're seeing it. The planes are starting to get booked, the people are booking hotels. It's coming back, baby. So we are getting fired up. We're going to talk about is management ready? Are your employees ready? Is everyone ready to go full? All in on delivering an amazing experience. We're going to have a lot of fun. How are we getting ready with Savannah bananas? We're mostly just singing the song from frozen for the first time in forever, where we get to see actual people. And we get to open the gates just like an Elsa from that amazing Disney movie, which we will actually probably reenact that whole thing to open the gates. But yes, while we have played games throughout the pandemic. And at a much smaller scale, we will be enlarging it. And so bringing it back and hopefully having everyone ready to rock and roll. So in the spirit of hospitality and in the spirit of our roundtable on Monday, what I will suggest is one thing that you can do that is fans first today. But we always say, every decision we make, we ask ourselves, is it fans first? So my suggestion today would be to send something to a fan or a customer without asking for anything in return. And this isn't a sales pitch. I'm talking about something of value, whether it be maybe a simple video and just say, hey, I'm thinking about you. Thanks for all the support, especially during this past year. We appreciate you or it's a thank you letter or it's a special gift of some sort. But how can we give something to someone without asking for anything return? That's how you create fans. And I'm talking about creating revenue, create fans by giving without anything in return. So that is one thing. And I say this Fans first entertain always is our mission. It's every decision that we make. And in hospitality, we look at the definition of hospitality is in a sense, entertaining people. All right. The definition of entertain is to provide enjoyment and provide amusement. So how can you entertain? What can you do to provide a little bit of joy to show up, provide some fun, maybe make someone laugh and give that to a fan? And we'll talk about some of these crazy fun ideas on Monday. We're back, baby.
