Go big or go home. We chose the first one for our next event… Haven’t you heard? The word in the streets is that our events are a must-attend. Our events team led by Kayla Drake knows this, and that’s why we hosted our very first "Cocktails & Community” event last week in Austin and had the best time with our friends and customers. The good news is… We’re now hosting another "Cocktails & Community” event for the first time in Chicago. So, if you are a Sales & Revenue Operations Leader. And you’re gonna be in Chicago on January 24th. Go register in the link in our comments now. See you in there? (if you’re not in Chicago, let us know which city should we do next!) #salesevent #salestips

Check out the case study below about how IDeaS Revenue Solutions helped The Dewberry Charleston increase efficiency and maximize revenue in a high-demand market. "We are still in the system daily but only for short periods of time, giving us far more bandwidth for strategic planning,” says Krista Rasheed, General Manager at The Dewberry Charleston. “I trust the system completely. I know I can let G3 RMS run on autopilot when needed and don’t have to constantly worry about the decisions it’s making." #RevenueManagement #HotelManagement #Hospitality

Port is for Christmas, or is it? I always remember one summer at Majestic where the Muswell Hill branch welcomed a new member to the team. He had just returned from working at Taylor's Port House, where serving port in the height of summer was the norm. Guess what? He absolutely smashed sales for the store that summer breaking company records. I questioned him whilst he visited our store on a stock run. How did you manage it? Here's what he did: Had the confidence to challenge conventional thinking. Changing customer perceptions is no easy feat, but he embraced the challenge. Leveraged his unique experience and knowledge. By sharing his expertise and enthusiasm for port, he made it accessible and exciting for the customers. Created a unique customer experience. He offered tastings and shared the perfect summer pairings, transforming port from a winter drink into a summer sensation. Lesson learned: Innovation often starts with challenging the status quo. When we have the courage to think differently and share our passion, we can inspire others to see the world in a new light. #Innovation #CustomerExperience #SalesSuccess #ThinkDifferently #PortWine

Have y'all heard of Buc-ee's, Ltd.? (Yes...I brought a little Texas out there for y'all. Jennifer will be proud). When I lived in Texas many years ago, Buc-ee's wasn't a thing, so when we moved Paul down to attend Texas A&M University, we were told we HAD to go! Wow...it lived up to its reputation. And now is a staple for us to go to on every trip. A friend and business coach, Oie Dobier, just wrote a great blog about "The Power of Being Known for Something: Lessons from Buc-ee's". If you are in marketing or are running a business, take a minute and check out this post. https://lnkd.in/g5zY28PS ~ What are you known for? #CustomerExperience #Marketing #Business

What do you do during the seasonal drop in sales? Both of our locations are in tourist towns, we have high summer traffic and crazy low winter sales. We opened Joes on the Beach at the end of September and by mid October we could see that we would need to do something to drive bums in seats. Even if we managed the costs, had we not done something we would not have made it through the winter. Our very first event was lobsterfest ( I know rather predictable but it did the trick) Even better was what this did to our cheque average. So we knew that given what we knew about sales trends in town that we would be ok over Christmas, but e would need to do something in January. What we learned from lobster was that we would need to find a low food cost item to create an event around. What we create was Autobahn, Where Joe’s does a tour of German food + Drink. It was so popular that this year is our 2nd annual event. Low food cost, high traffic resulted in cash flow and happy staff. #localbusiness #lobsterfest #event

Just got out of Glover U’s ADAPT & THRIVE "13 Ways to Own Your Market This Summer" at the Courtyard by Marriott Cincinnati, and let me tell you, this wasn't your average hype machine. Most events leave you with a bunch of vague promises and teasers, then hit you with a sales pitch for some expensive "secret sauce" that you think will finally give you the goods. But this? This was different. Jeff Glover actually laid out 13 actionable steps we can take to dominate the market this summer. No fluff, all substance. Feeling pumped to implement these strategies and take my business to the next level! If you're tired of events that waste your time, Glover U is the real deal. #GloverU #RealEstate #ABC #LetsGo #MarketDomination #ActionableSteps #13WaysTour #OneTeamOneGoal Jeff Glover
