Let me tell you about Ana Beatriz, a hospitality consultant from Portugal. → She is a pioneer.  → She advocates to weave wellness into the fabric of a hotel’s brand.  → She ensures wellness is part of the hotel’s DNA - in every project. However, back in the day, when wellness wasn’t the trend it is today, she faced strong resistance from hotel owners. Why? Her fellow hospitality consultants were always chasing the latest trend, seducing hotel owners with these trends. These hotel owners didn’t want to invest in wellness - it was a risky bet. Then, Ana decided to switch things up. She started using the language she loved and knew owners would understand too. She developed investment maps to show these owners the potential scenarios for their hotel with and without a robust wellness component. This strategy was effective in securing everyone's buy-in. With consensus from the start, Ana fast-tracked the successful pitching of her wellness concept. Ana's approach perfectly reflects the principles of the ESSENCE framework. It highlights the importance of getting everyone on board when you’re building a profitable wellness concept. Without this consensus, no matter how grand your facilities, great your idea or amazing your talent, you’ll never have success with wellness. 🎓 Key learning: Having success with wellness requires more than technical knowledge. What is that extra? A proven framework to follow. My ESSENCE framework is a step-by-step process that helps you: → Plan → Implement → Iterate  → Grow ____ Interested in making wellness a success?

If you're building a business in the wellness industry the rapidly growing wellness tourism market should be a consideration as part of your growth strategy 📈 As more and more wellness consumers are travelling with wellness as a key deciding factor for the hotel they stay at I am seeing more and more brands develop partnerships with hotels embracing this trend ✈ We are currently working on a rebranding project for a luxury resort to put wellness at the heart of their brand. This means they are going to engage with multiple wellness brands to offer a full spectrum wellness experience to their consumers 💚 Developing partnerships in this sector can be an advantage. #wellnesstourism #wellnessindustry #partnershipideas #wellnessstartup #wellness

Next week I join fellow industry leaders and innovators in Dubai at the Future Hospitality Summit to dive deep into the pressing topic of "Navigating the Complexities of Building Wellness Brands and Experiences Today." In an era where the wellness economy is booming, standing out in an increasingly crowded market is more challenging than ever! During our panel we address the conflicting ambitions that often arise among owners, developers, and operators. Balancing the desire for profitability with the commitment to be unique and add differentiation is crucial in a landscape where wellness brands often appear homogenized. We share best practices from across the industry, highlighting consumer trends that are shaping the future of wellness. What does the next wave of wellness look like? How can brands effectively communicate their unique value propositions? I look forward to sparking conversations on building impactful wellness brands! #hospitality #luxurybrands #wellness #brandexperiences #luxuryhospitality #wellnesshospitality #buildingbrands #wellnesstrends #traveltrends #development #impactbrands
