This document summarizes the findings of the Zone 1 Account Management Project. The project analyzed opportunities to increase revenue at 40 hotel properties through corporate travel, group bookings, and CLC contracts. Methods used included reviewing Hotelligence and rooms consolidation reports, as well as tools like Cvent, Hotel Planner, and local Convention Visitors Bureaus. Specific opportunities were identified for properties like increasing corporate travel for top local companies, ensuring complete listings on group booking tools, and attracting CLC contracts with minimal rate reductions. The project uncovered over 400 business cases and thousands of potential room nights. Next steps include reviewing progress on RevPAR index goals and determining rates for competitors.

Editor's Notes
Introduce ourselves
Explain Zone 1 Project
Failure to meet RevPar Index goals
Research on 40 properties (Conversion & New Construction)
Lay out Agenda
Hand off to Mitch
Importance of mid-week business
Best of the best: Allow corporate travel
Base line business; Repeat business; Build relationship
Several lacking logical evidence to support business cases
EXPECTED VALUE
Direct Booking -> Not on Hotelligence or Rooms Consolidation
Revenue Management (ChoiceRM) helps to manage the rate changes; Becomes even more evident with CLC
Business cases missing from important points of business: Capture locally
Shrink the market; Easy win
Repeat business; Quick revenue
Backlinks (local attractions) – Is it possible to include this on the website?
Cvent- puts focus on meeting space
CVB- town website- accommodations not listed
