Thinking about 2009 . . .

Carino Collection Co-Op Opt-In Marketing — one kind does not fit all

We need your voice!

We would like your input in our ongoing quest to research and present more co-op marketing programs that are exactly what Carino Collection members are looking for. Now that the marketing team has been working on programs for almost a year, Peter, Joe, Colleen and ourselves think it is time for a Marketing Steering Committee.

We have 24 program participants as of November 2005 and we look forward - with your help - to increasing this number and the value of marketing programs to each of you.

What is in it for you?

If you feel your marketing experience will contribute to the overall results of these marketing programs, then this steering committee is for you! It is also a great way to network with your colleagues, share best practices and learn more about various marketing programs other luxury hotels have had success with.

You won't have "lots" of work to do but we will have conference calls on a regular basis- as the group feels it is necessary to discuss programs, offerings and creative.

Remember, marketing is not just print ads anymore. We consider lots of electronic, direct mail and web options for target audiences you would like to reach.

Thanks for considering joining us in this endeavor. Please let us know if you are interested.

Best, Sandy and Eric

One kind does not fit all.
