Here are a few points to get you started with:
1) A website: Or should we say a responsive website. It should have genuine photographs and
data. Clear contact details and should be easy to navigate. Allocate money from your budget
to marketing, i.e. SEO (search engine optimisation), face book marketing, YouTube marketing,
getting yourself registered on all the top websites related to your area i.e. make my trip, etc. to
make yourself visible in this over crowded market of internet. There are many companies
which can help you develop your brand and handle your marketing.
2) Your online reputation: Take care of all the reviews you get, whether they are positive or
negative. Be gracious enough to thank the customer for reviewing it. If there is a genuine
negative review, work towards improving it. Be prompt with any queries, issues or feedback
you receive.
3) The staff: In an industry which demands exceptional communication skills, one needs to
assess the performance of their staff on a regular basis. Hiring people who have come out from
a reputed is very important. One institute is this. They have high quality Certificate, Diploma
and Degree courses in Hotel and Hospitality Management available with excellent
infrastructure and faculties. One who is interested and has good interpersonal skills can Enrol.
In the end I would say that food blogging is indeed an effective tool with a faster response rate

The internet has become the bread and butter of individuals and has become an integral part
of a person’s life, irrespective of the day, time and hour of its use. It serves as a crucial mode
of communicating with different groups or individuals in cyber space. One of the essential
modes of communication are blogs. Over the years, blogs have gained a tremendous growth
with respect to its usefulness, enjoyment, readership etc. It is viewed as a form of information
system that allows for accumulation of information. The research paper delves into the aspect
of social influence that attempts to captivate an individual’s intentions of using blogs. To
understand the concept of blogs, one needs to be synonymous with the terminologies such as
Information System, Information Quality, System Quality, Blogging Function Quality and

common thing that is shaping and sharing their identities online with others who love to read
about their food and lifestyles. According to a survey conducted by ‘The State of Food

respondents were aged 24 and younger. 45% of respondents had no background related to

. From waste to delicacy: Collective innovation in food disposition practices through
blogging
CR North American Advances, 2013
A significant amount of food produced ends up as waste. It has been estimated that up to a
half of all food purchased by households is thrown away (Mache. org 2013). This is alarming
from the point of view of the environment, and relates to the negative consequences of
Western overconsumption (Acholi and Kotler 2012). It has also been found that intentions of
not wasting food do not correlate with actual food waste. Instead, routine practices of food
purchasing and provisioning are more significant (Rope 2009; Stefan et al. 2013). These
practices are often unelected upon by consumers yet they have a big impact on sustainability.
Therefore, it is essential for research to focus on these practices in order to make a difference:
to understand how waste emerges and to find ways to reduce it. The purpose of this study is
to examine consumer practices aimed at actively reducing food waste. These practices,
consisting of materials, meanings and competences (Shove, Panzer, and Watson 2012), are
investigated through an ethnographic study of a Finnish food blog campaign. Special
attention is paid on how consumer bloggers and their audience turn reducing food waste into
a collective project of innovation, making these practices more socially acceptable and even
trendy

. Impact of influencer marketing on hotels & cafes
How do guests choose hotels? Are they influenced by personal expectations, or do their
choices reflect what they believe others expect of them? What is the role of social influence
on guests’ decisions? Do guests compare competing offers and make purposeful choices?
Marketing is the most critical step when a specific service or product is to be introduced on
the brand. Advertising influences individual’s attitudes behaviour and lifestyle. (Dada, 2019).
In different topics, the hotel sector has. grown from private hotels, resorts, restaurants and
16
16
now cafes. Now, you'll find fancy cafes for a few days if you go somewhere in the country.
The newspapers used were news reports, hoardings, pamphlets, well its changed due to the
introduction of emerging technology, despite the old days when we had no social media
channels for selling the new restaurant
(Woods, 2016) As social media platforms are growing and evolving it’s important for the
brands to stay relevant. Utilisation of influencer marketing can be one of the ways to sustain
in the market. Influencer marketing is the being where there is potential where the brands can
explore. As there is an increase in advertising agencies and increase in the spending on social
media the agencies have started to include the social media marketing. There are multimedia
agencies that are dedicated to provide social media as the first solution. When it comes to
working with influencers that the brands are aware of paid and non-paid partnership. This is
done in a variety of ways, most commonly by using the hashtags #ad and #sponsored in the
post. It’s important for brands to get to a trustworthy influencer. The social media influencer
was born due to lack of opportunity to advertise on social media. Where the brands would
seed their content or product via influencers so that there can be awareness created amongst
the customers. The use of influencer marketing can serve reach and engagement for the
brand. As influencers are the people that look up to for any suggestions about any things. So,
investing in this kind of marketing can serve a virtual word of mouth and awareness about the
brand and hence effectively influence the potential buyers.
(Ms. Arena Nidamarthy, 2020) Marketing has grown exponentially over last few years and
also there are new trends. Now a day’s companies, organizations, and even government are
looking for new ways to reach customers. Influencer marketing is used to create a trust
between customers and organizations by making use of individuals. As there is a visible
growth in social media platforms these individuals called as influencers use these platforms
to communicate with their audience. The social media platforms that are used are Instagram,
followed closely by Facebook and YouTube. There are different age groups that show
positive results on trusting opinions and trusting the reviews. The age group of 22 to 25 is the
most influenced of all the groups. This indicates that the consumers are the young generation
people. Hence there is a positive effect on the customers if the right set of influencers are
chosen. Marketers should keep in mind that there are 2 types of influencers that is the paid
review and the unpaid ones but the marketer should be. Also, giveaways can be considered as
a part of influencing where these influencers create awareness about the product and hence it
can reflect in to positive growth of the brand. However, it’s not important that these
influencers would always provide with a positive review the honest review can be also
negative. So, the businesses should reach out to correct influencers. And provide them with
some personalized products and appropriate products. As the product will be of their benefit
it can give a positive review.
(ÁDEKOVÁ, 2018) Influencer marketing is a type of marketing that influences customers to
buy any product or service. This market is ruined by individual expertise, popularity,
reputation. This kind of marketing is like mouth of word. By creating Instagram,
Facebook, YouTube followers which can give greater and better opportunities for the
industries. As in the past also the branding was focused on the known personality and now it
has moved to the well - known bloggers and today it is all about the everyday

Madriz Syahbani, Arry Widodo in their research “FOOD BLOGGER INSTAGRAM:
PROMOTION THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA”, it is said that many culinary businessmen are
interested in promoting their restaurants through food bloggers on Instagram to let people
know about it. Mostly, food bloggers become an information centre to people in deciding if a
restaurant is worth enough to be visited or not. In addition, Instagram is considered as the
most effective and efficient media to promote because they provide kinds of contexts with
their best multimedia features.
IA Damayanti, Shoqib Angria wan, Rangoon Puja S. in their research entitled “THE USE OF

enough as long as there is a similarity of meaning in the message that is being delivered. The
similarity of meaning in particular is the similarity of language that is used in a sentence or
phrase that is being delivered in a certain language. Yet, it cannot guarantee that the
similarity of meaning occurs to the others because the meaning(s) can be misunderstood. It is
called communicative if the communicator and the communicant speak the same language
and they understand each other's meaning. Communicating is not only for giving information,
but it can also be a mean to persuade, which means an activity that is done by persuading
people in order to make them acknowledge an understanding or belief. The goal is to make
people do something that is expected by the communicator.
Terence A. Shrimp (Periklanan Promosi, 2003:4) marketing communication is an important
aspect of marketing, it is also a determinant of the marketing process, whether it is successful
or not. In the last decade, the component of marketing communication becomes more
18
18
important. Even it is claimed that "marketing in the 90s is communication and
communication is marketing, both cannot be separated". Marketing communication can be
understood by elaborating the two main elements, which are communication and marketing.
Communication is a process where thoughts and understandings are delivered between
individuals, or between organizations and individuals. Marketing is a set of activities where a
company and the other organizations transfer their values between them and their customers.
Of course, the understanding of marketing is more general than marketing communication. If
the two are combined, marketing communication represents the whole elements of brand
marketing, which facilitates the occurrence of exchange by creating a certain meaning that
spread to the customers or clients. The born of new media, especially the internet gives a
chance for marketers to arrange a different marketing communication in approaching their
targeted consumers. The existence of new media that offers interactive communication
activities is one of the answers for the matter of marketing communication activities to
generate a message that affects their targeted consumers. Robert C. Blatberg and John
Deighton stated that the goal of a marketer is how to build an interactive relationship with
their consumers personally, and the advanced innovation of technology that is based on the
database will make their goal come true (Sugiyama & Andree, 2011:43).
West and Turner (2009) stated that there are 2 kinds of group, which are the problem-solving
group and the task-oriented group. The problem- solving group consists of people that make
decisions and provide policy recommendations. While the task-oriented group consists of
people that have one goal, which is getting their tasks done. A small group communication
consists of skills.

. The Effectiveness of Social Media by Brand Awareness, Information Platform Gaining
Feedback, Customer Acquisition and Retention of Organic Food and Beverages
Marketing is a systematic activity to satisfy customers' needs while also stimulating and
increasing the sales of a product or service There are three elements in marketing namely All
of this involves strategies in matters relating to products, prices, promotions and distribution
channel selection. This strategy is used to compete with competitors so that companies or
organizations, especially cooperatives, can survive and continue to be competitive (Andrews,
& Shrimp, 2017).
Recently, Social media became better than the traditional method of marketing (Tauten, &
Solomon, 2017). According to Dahl (2018), social media in life is no longer a stranger
because the platform is used not only to track contacts at school but it is also used as a
medium to generate profits that are now increasingly popular by businesses throughout the
world regardless of whether it is a well-known company or individual who is new in various
industries. This has attracted them (traders) for the opportunity to expand the network which
is very important to gain the influence of the public to gain trust by maintaining a loyal
customer relationship as one of the strategies to make the customer a company asset
(Strathdee, 2017). So, what is a media social page? It is defined as a website-based service
that allows individuals to build a profile tied to a system, influence other users to share
relationships and browse the list of connections that have been made within a network
19

(Lamberton, & Stephen, 2016). The trust given to Facebook is so huge that Donald trump the
new US President has also won in the election due to information provided by Facebook.
According to Stevens, Aarts, Termeer, and Dewulf (2016) there were a limited number of
studies at the insights from social media literature to the domain of agro-food sustainability.
Mozas-Moral, Bernal-Jurado, Medina-Viruel, and Fernández-Uclés (2016) identify
explanatory factors for success in online social networks. A fuzzy set Qualitative
Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) confirms that human resource capabilities (specifically
management training), the intensity of firms' social network activity, and the experience firms
accumulate in these virtual media are key factors for social network success
The Malaysian food and beverage industry (F & B) has also experienced rapid
growth in recent decades, with the influx of international fast-food chains such as McDonald,
Subway, Nandos and Yum! Brands (KFC owners and Pizza Hut, among others) (Lim, Lee,
Choue, & Wang, (2018). The quality of services in F & B also increased significantly.
However, technological advancements in the retail and F & B industries are extremely low.
The Department of Statistics survey found that only 10% of businesses in this sector utilize
technology (Fernando, Wah, & Shaharudin, (2016).
According to Ward (2016), the main challenge facing firms in penetrating new markets is
lack of knowledge, for example no accurate contacts, unable to handle business logistics, and
do not know business rules in foreign countries. "The F & B industry is growing rapidly as
we can produce delicious food with the uniqueness of Malaysia. Here are more F & B
owners, who add new branches, but most of them are young and they do not know how to
export (Santoro, Vrontis, & Pastore, 2017). However, here the questions are, how about the
organic food business way of marketing?
The demand for organic products in Malaysia is projected to grow more than 12.4% a year
with a financial value of more than RM20 million a year. The government policy on organic
agriculture started in 1998 when a formal guideline for organic farming was introduced to the
farmers. A study by MARDI in 2010 found that more than 90% of Malaysian consumers
knew about organic products and they associated these products with free chemicals, good for
health and all-natural. The study also revealed that 53.8% of consumers in Malaysia had
consumed organic products at least once in six month

. The Role of Electronic Word of Mouth, Health Protocol, Perceived Usefulness and

the purchase of a product or service such as a hotel. Unfortunately, Covid-19 pandemic
occurred in 2020 and changed consumer behaviour regarding information needs to fulfil their
sense of secure to stay at hotel. Therefore, this study aims to examine the role of electronic

about the hotel as a whole as perceived usefulness of hotel online reviews as an external
factor in hotel management and the application of hotel health protocols as an internal factor
in hotel management before stay. The managerial implication of this research encourages
boutique hotel management to provide the best service and promote the uniqueness of
boutique hotels to encourage good and detail reviews and implement health protocol in order
to increase boutique hotel booking intentions.

The Effect of COVID-19 on potential tourist's consumption behaviour: Evidence from
GCC countries
Coronavirus and other previous epidemic
The tourism and hospitality industry is an essential economic sector for many countries (Zane
Majid, Boston, & Reba Khalil, 2019), where many countries' revenue and survival depend on
tourism (Abuelhassan & Elsayed, 2020; Hossain et al., 2020; Wang, 2017). Unfortunately,
21
21
various natural diseases have influenced this industry. Given the global increase in
population, pressures such as the human movement for tourism or work, as well as the
significant technological revolution, natural crisis are now more various, intense, and
geographically diverse than before (Gössling et al., 2020). Further, the growth of global
transport systems and channel contributed in the expanse of disease causes, industrialized
food production, increased consumption of food and beverage, are all grounds for the
increase of diseases infection in the 21st century (Labonté, Mohindra, & Schrecker, 2011).
Several researchers have endeavored to define disaster to increase people knowledge and
understanding of this phenomenon. For example, disasters as described by Faulkner (2001) is
a situation where companies faced with unanticipated, unpredictable changes which they
have no control of. Wang (2017) mentioned that a disaster is either natural or human-made,
suddenly, or gradually, affecting other communities with acuteness and the influenced
community reacts towards using exceptional measures.
Tourism industry has been influenced by a various of natural and human-made disasters and
impact. In terms of natural disasters; for example, in 1999 in Taiwan, the earthquake disaster
caused a (15%) decline in arriving tourists globally (Huang & Min, 2002); on September
21st, 1999, a huge earthquake occurred reaching 7.3 on Richter scale hit Chinese Taipei,
Nantou county causing 2,455 losses, 8,000 people injured and 38,935 houses damaged (Wilks
& Moo, 2004). That causes a 11.4 U. S billion dollars’ damages costs in the most touristic
regions of Chinese Taipei. Furthermore, on December 26th, 2004, the tsunami, the most
terrible natural disasters occurred in contemporary history, attached eight countries in South
Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Africa. By this sudden catastrophe resulted in a significant
damage to the tourism industry of that region, reaching many miles away from coastline
decimated, and as many as 250,000 deaths and losses billions of dollars (Qi Zhang, 2005).
It has noted that the inclusive damage of natural disasters can affect both components,
intangible and tangible of tourism business (Faulkner, 2001; Laws & Rideau, 2005). Due to
socio-economic effect of the tourism industry (Zane Majid et al., 2019), the consequences of
crisis would be disastrous and might have long-term effects on the destination's economy
(Alkathiri et al., 2019; Kim & Wong, 2006). Rosella et al. (2020) accentuated that disasters
cause unexpected effects that disturb the tourism system of the destination form the nature
and limits of impacts. Most disasters have severe consequences on tourism activities and the
country's whole system, such as the economy, individuals, organizations, and communities
(Walters et al., 2019), either directly and indirectly at a destination country (Jinn, Qu, & Boa,
2019).
Several studies provided empirical evidence of declines in destination tourist arrivals
following some disasters (Huang & Min, 2002; Otoe & Kim, 2018). Accordingly, tourists
won’t expend their money to go to a destination, where they risk their safety (Chen & Gur
soy, 2001). Hem, Viersen, and Nyssen (2003) contended that some traveller target markets
are risk-prospectors and thus respond more positively to the risky trip, while other segments
are risk hatred and whereby respond negatively to the event. This is clearly shown through
the theory of fear appeal, which indicates that when fear is aroused, the recipient will become
motivated to alleviate the negative impact or influence (Brennan & Bonney, 2010). Fear
motivates actions, aimed at reducing the unpleasant emotions, or undesirable effects. One of
the actions that fear motivates, is knowledge or information that is collected of the
phenomenon, or situation, or crisis, that causes the fear, or unpleasant feeling (Witte, 1992).
For example, in a study conducted by Otoe and Kim (2018) on Hong Kong inbound tourism
from 2003 to 2015, shows a significant decline in overall tourists' arrivals during several
22
22
crisis events. Due to this background, it is possible to assume that the health crisis forms vital
aspects that reform the goals of inbound tourism.

system; articulate a multiple users list with shared a known relationship, and observe the list
of relationships of those persons with known and unknown people within the system.
Merriam-Webster “Social Medias like social networking sites, Micro blogging sites,
facilitates communication electronically and helps various users to create online groups and
affiliations to share and spread various information like text messages, images, Audio clips,
videos and other content.” Wikipedia defines social media as “Media for social interaction,

The Impact of Pandemic Crisis on the Restaurant Business
Over the last ten years, the Portuguese restaurant industry has experienced enormous growth,
associated with the growth of tourism in Portugal, especially in the Algarve coastal regions,
Lisbon, and Porto. Further, Portuguese wines, Portuguese cuisine, and Portuguese chefs have
become internationally renowned, which has resulted in an increase in the number of wine
tourists and gastro tourists. According to Bank of Portugal [1] data, in 2018 the share of the
accommodation, catering, and similar sectors represented 10% of companies in Portugal, 9%
of people in service, and 3% of turnover.
The restaurant business sector plays an essential role in the economy of a country even
though many small and medium-sized restaurants fail during their first four years of activity,
which is an example of the need for strategies to financially sustain their business beyond
25
25
five years [2]. Other authors have also pointed out the importance of a survival strategy for
the restaurant sector and for re-establishing consumer confidence [3–5].
Economic sustainability is the additional income provided to local inhabitants to compensate
them for the presence of tourists and what that can result in. It can also be defined as the
improvements to the local economy that the development of tourism can produce in the long
term, taking into account all the impacts that affect the different sectors and the economy of
local industries [6]. Nunez-Rios, Sánchez-Garcia, Rojas, and Olivares- Benitez [7] also
evince that organizational sustainability and sustainable performance continue to be a
challenge for small and medium-sized companies because their resources and organizational
structure are very limiting. Unsustainable economic growth generated factor.

Impacts of COVID-19 on food security and nutrition: developing effective policy responses
to address the hunger and malnutrition pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic that has spread rapidly and extensively around the world since late
2019 has had profound implications for food security and nutrition. The unfolding crisis has
affected food systems1 and threatened people’s access to food via multiple dynamics. We
have witnessed not only a major disruption to food supply chains in the wake of lockdowns
triggered by the global health crisis, but also a major global economic slowdown. These
crises have resulted in lower incomes and higher prices of some foods, putting food out of
reach for many, and undermining the right to food and stalling efforts to meet Sustainable
Development Goal (SDG) 2: “Zero hunger.” The situation is fluid and dynamic, characterized
by a high degree of uncertainty. According to the World Health Organization, the worst
effects are yet to come (Ghebreyesus, 2020; Khorsandi, 2020). Most health analysts predict
that this virus will continue to circulate for a least one or two more years (Scudellari, 2020.
1. HOW COVID-19 IS AFFECTING FOOD SECURITY AND NUTRITION
COVID-19 is a respiratory illness and there is no evidence that food itself is a vector of its
transmission (ICMSF, 2020). However, the virus, and measures to contain its spread, have
had profound implications for food security, nutrition and food systems. At the same time,
malnutrition (including obesity) increases vulnerability to COVID-19. Initial and ongoing
uncertainty surrounding the nature of the spread of COVID-19 led to the implementation of
strict lockdown and physical distancing policies in a number of countries. These measures
caused a serious slowdown in economic activity and disrupted supply chains, unleashing new
dynamics with cascading effects on food systems and people’s food security and nutrition.
Below we outline these dynamics. We then highlight how these trends are affecting the six
dimensions of food security proposed by the HLPE in its 15th report—availability, access,
utilization, stability, agency and sustainability—which are essential for ensuring the right to
food (HLPE, 2020b).

infections and deaths are reported daily. The current article explores the food systems in the
era of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. It provides insights about the properties of bioactive
ingredients of foods and herbs for the support of the human immune system against infections
before discussing the possibility of COVID-19 transmission through the food chain. It also
highlights the global food security issues arising from the fact that one-third of the world’s
population is on lockdown. Finally, it underlines the importance of sustainability in the food
chain in order to avoid or reduce the frequency of relevant food and health crises in the
future.

FOOD BLOGS ON INSTAGRAM:
The use of social media in today’s twenty-first century has been increasing rapidly. Over the
last decades, the number of internet users have drastically increased (Cop, 2016). Social
media has become a natural part of everyday life. It has made communicating with friends,
family and companies easier than before as it is accessible almost everywhere through
Internet connection with the help of different devices such as laptops, tablets and
smartphones (Terttunen, 2017). Instagram is a social networking application, which allows its
users to share photos and videos from a smartphone. It is a first social media site built
specifically to work on mobile device. A mobile device refers to any type of mobile phone or
similar device such as iPod touch, iPad or other tablet that uses cellular technology (Miles
2014, 4.). Photo sharing communities such as Instagram have made it possible to
communicate with large groups of distributed people through an image, be it a picture of
what is for dinner or a selfie, perhaps more easily than through words alone (Bakhsh, Shame,
& Gilbert, 2014, p. 965). One of the aspects that makes Instagram unique is that it is not a
web-based social media platform, but a mobile-based platform, which means it generates a
certain type of image posting and interaction from its users (McNealy, 2012).

Food for the soul: How immigrants use food blogs to heal during times of crisis
Food is a powerful medium that brings people together. Some express their love for others by
cooking for them. Some who are bothered by the chaos of the outside world find a sense of
calm in the order and method involved in cooking. Then there are others, such as me, who
read food blogs and watch food-related videos. We derive immense pleasure in watching
complex dishes come together in under three minutes. Food blogs are therapeutic for me. I
subscribe to several, but the ones closest to my heart are those that demonstrate Indian
cooking. While I am an adventurous eater, during times of crisis I tend to fall back on
comfort food from my country of birth. I find it calming to taste familiar flavours that remind
me of my childhood home and the warmth and love of my family. During the shutdown
caused by the pandemic, one particular Indian food blog, Bongo’s Cookbook, has been my
go-to for coping with the ongoing sense of dread and uncertainty in the world.

antecedents of restaurant customers’ revisit intention, and that restaurant type moderates the
effect of customer satisfaction with service quality, atmosphere, and price and value on
revisit intention. We also used text mining technology to identify detailed evaluation
indicators in each dimension and explore customers’ evaluation behaviour characteristics. We
found that food quality and, price and value have four indicators while service quality and
atmosphere have two indicators. The results are useful for restaurant operators to take
effective actions to attract more customers to revisit.

Changes in energy content of lunchtime purchases from fast food restaurants after
introduction of calorie labelling: cross sectional customer surveys
Obesity prevalence in the United States is at an all-time high for both adults and children; the
most recent data report that a third of adults and 17% of children and teenagers are obese.1 2
In an effort to refocus the fight against obesity, elected officials and public health
professionals are shifting towards legislative policies that alter the food environment to
facilitate healthier nutritional choices.3 Among such initiatives are soda taxes, restrictions on
food marketing to children, updating nutrition guidelines for schools and public procurement,
regulation of vending machines, and moratoria on licensing fast food establishments.4 5 6
Requiring chain restaurants to print the energy content of their meals is one such intervention.
Since New York City’s regulation was passed in 2006, which required chain restaurants to
include the calorific value for all items on menus and menu boards, other US jurisdictions
have introduced similar policies.7 The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, approved
in March 2010, will require calorie labelling at chain restaurants nationwide. In the United
Kingdom, 28 organisations have pledged to implement similar labelling in 2011 as part of the
Department of Health’s voluntary Responsibility Deal programme.8 These include some food
chains that have been required to provide calorie labels in New York City.

5 Reasons Why your Hotel Needs a Blog
Blogs can bring new customers: Believe it or not, blogs are a great way to get new customers
to your website. A blog brings in different set of customers and it also encourages visitors to
keep returning for new blog content. Blogs are a great way to attract visitors who use search
engines for information on specific hotels, therefore, making your website a reliable source
for new customers. Blogs keep your website fresh on content: If you churn out fresh content
regularly via blogs then your website will surely find its way up in Google’s rankings. Search
engines usually look for fresh and interesting content and if you stop publishing it then your
website will become stagnant and your rankings will automatically decrease. So, blogs work
as a rescue mechanism to keep your site fresh and content rich. Blogs help create an identity:
Blogs are the easiest way to create a strong identity in the hospitality industry. If you don’t
post any information, then you don’t even exist in the market. Therefore, use blogs to your
fullest advantage to share all hotel related information and create a strong identity for your
brand in the market. Blogs help develop relationships: Since people are growing to be net
31
31
savvy, most guests prefer to post their queries through the comment section on blogs rather
than calling up the hotel or sending mails. So you can build relations with your guests

From waste to delicacy: Collective innovation in food disposition practices through blogging CR North American Advances, 2013 A significant amount of food produced ends up as waste. It has been estimated that up to a half of all food purchased by households is thrown away (Mache. org 2013). This is alarming from the point of view of the environment, and relates to the negative consequences of Western overconsumption (Acholi and Kotler 2012). It has also been found that intentions of not wasting food do not correlate with actual food waste. Instead, routine practices of food purchasing and provisioning are more significant (Rope 2009; Stefan et al. 2013). These practices are often unelected upon by consumers yet they have a big impact on sustainability. Therefore, it is essential for research to focus on these practices in order to make a difference: to understand how waste emerges and to find ways to reduce it.

Impact of influencer marketing on hotels & cafes How do guests choose hotels? Are they influenced by personal expectations, or do their choices reflect what they believe others expect of them? What is the role of social influence on guests’ decisions? Do guests compare competing offers and make purposeful choices?

The newspapers used were news reports, hoardings, pamphlets, well its changed due to the introduction of emerging technology, despite the old days when we had no social media channels for selling the new restaurant (Woods, 2016) As social media platforms are growing and evolving it’s important for the brands to stay relevant. Utilisation of influencer marketing can be one of the ways to sustain in the market. Influencer marketing is the being where there is potential where the brands can explore. As there is an increase in advertising agencies and increase in the spending on social media the agencies have started to include the social media marketing. There are multimedia agencies that are dedicated to provide social media as the first solution. When it comes to working with influencers that the brands are aware of paid and non-paid partnership. This is done in a variety of ways, most commonly by using the hashtags #ad and #sponsored in the post. It’s important for brands to get to a trustworthy influencer. The social media influencer was born due to lack of opportunity to advertise on social media. Where the brands would seed their content or product via influencers so that there can be awareness created amongst the customers. The use of influencer marketing can serve reach and engagement for the brand. As influencers are the people that look up to for any suggestions about any things. So, investing in this kind of marketing can serve a virtual word of mouth and awareness about the brand and hence effectively influence the potential buyers. (Ms. Arena Nidamarthy, 2020) Marketing has grown exponentially over last few years and also there are new trends. Now a day’s companies, organizations, and even government are looking for new ways to reach customers. Influencer marketing is used to create a trust between customers and organizations by making use of individuals. As there is a visible growth in social media platforms these individuals called as influencers use these platforms to communicate with their audience. The social media platforms that are used are Instagram, followed closely by Facebook and YouTube. There are different age groups that show positive results on trusting opinions and trusting the reviews. The age group of 22 to 25 is the most influenced of all the groups. This indicates that the consumers are the young generation people. Hence there is a positive effect on the customers if the right set of influencers are chosen. Marketers should keep in mind that there are 2 types of influencers that is the paid review and the unpaid ones but the marketer should be. Also, giveaways can be considered as a part of influencing where these influencers create awareness about the product and hence it can reflect in to positive growth of the brand. However, it’s not important that these influencers would always provide with a positive review the honest review can be also negative. So, the businesses should reach out to correct influencers. And provide them with some personalized products and appropriate products. As the product will be of their benefit it can give a positive review. (ÁDEKOVÁ, 2018) Influencer marketing is a type of marketing that influences customers to buy any product or service. This market is ruined by individual expertise, popularity, reputation. This kind of marketing is like mouth of word. By creating Instagram, Facebook, YouTube followers which can give greater and better opportunities for the industries.

Communication will last long IJSTR©2019 www.ijstr.org 9) enough as long as there is a similarity of meaning in the message that is being delivered. The similarity of meaning in particular is the similarity of language that is used in a sentence or phrase that is being delivered in a certain language. Yet, it cannot guarantee that the similarity of meaning occurs to the others because the meaning(s) can be misunderstood. It is called communicative if the communicator and the communicant speak the same language and they understand each other's meaning. Communicating is not only for giving information, but it can also be a mean to persuade, which means an activity that is done by persuading people in order to make them acknowledge an understanding or belief. The goal is to make people do something that is expected by the communicator. Terence A.

Marketing communication can be understood by elaborating the two main elements, which are communication and marketing. Communication is a process where thoughts and understandings are delivered between individuals, or between organizations and individuals. Marketing is a set of activities where a company and the other organizations transfer their values between them and their customers. Of course, the understanding of marketing is more general than marketing communication. If the two are combined, marketing communication represents the whole elements of brand marketing, which facilitates the occurrence of exchange by creating a certain meaning that spread to the customers or clients. The born of new media, especially the internet gives a chance for marketers to arrange a different marketing communication in approaching their targeted consumers. The existence of new media that offers interactive communication activities is one of the answers for the matter of marketing communication activities to generate a message that affects their targeted consumers.

West and Turner (2009) stated that there are 2 kinds of group, which are the problem-solving group and the task-oriented group.

Unfortunately,
  • 21. 21 21 various natural diseases have influenced this industry. Given the global increase in population, pressures such as the human movement for tourism or work, as well as the significant technological revolution, natural crisis are now more various, intense, and geographically diverse than before (Gössling et al., 2020). Further, the growth of global transport systems and channel contributed in the expanse of disease causes, industrialized food production, increased consumption of food and beverage, are all grounds for the increase of diseases infection in the 21st century (Labonté, Mohindra, & Schrecker, 2011). Several researchers have endeavored to define disaster to increase people knowledge and understanding of this phenomenon. For example, disasters as described by Faulkner (2001) is a situation where companies faced with unanticipated, unpredictable changes which they have no control of. Wang (2017) mentioned that a disaster is either natural or human-made, suddenly, or gradually, affecting other communities with acuteness and the influenced community reacts towards using exceptional measures. Tourism industry has been influenced by a various of natural and human-made disasters and impact. In terms of natural disasters; for example, in 1999 in Taiwan, the earthquake disaster caused a (15%) decline in arriving tourists globally (Huang & Min, 2002); on September 21st, 1999, a huge earthquake occurred reaching 7.3 on Richter scale hit Chinese Taipei, Nantou county causing 2,455 losses, 8,000 people injured and 38,935 houses damaged (Wilks & Moo, 2004). That causes a 11.4 U. S billion dollars’ damages costs in the most touristic regions of Chinese Taipei. Furthermore, on December 26th, 2004, the tsunami, the most terrible natural disasters occurred in contemporary history, attached eight countries in South Asia, Southeast Asia, and East Africa. By this sudden catastrophe resulted in a significant damage to the tourism industry of that region, reaching many miles away from coastline decimated, and as many as 250,000 deaths and losses billions of dollars (Qi Zhang, 2005). It has noted that the inclusive damage of natural disasters can affect both components, intangible and tangible of tourism business (Faulkner, 2001; Laws & Rideau, 2005). Due to socio-economic effect of the tourism industry (Zane Majid et al., 2019), the consequences of crisis would be disastrous and might have long-term effects on the destination's economy (Alkathiri et al., 2019; Kim & Wong, 2006). Rosella et al. (2020) accentuated that disasters cause unexpected effects that disturb the tourism system of the destination form the nature and limits of impacts. Most disasters have severe consequences on tourism activities and the country's whole system, such as the economy, individuals, organizations, and communities (Walters et al., 2019), either directly and indirectly at a destination country (Jinn, Qu, & Boa, 2019). Several studies provided empirical evidence of declines in destination tourist arrivals following some disasters (Huang & Min, 2002; Otoe & Kim, 2018). Accordingly, tourists won’t expend their money to go to a destination, where they risk their safety (Chen & Gur soy, 2001). Hem, Viersen, and Nyssen (2003) contended that some traveller target markets are risk-prospectors and thus respond more positively to the risky trip, while other segments are risk hatred and whereby respond negatively to the event. This is clearly shown through the theory of fear appeal, which indicates that when fear is aroused, the recipient will become motivated to alleviate the negative impact or influence (Brennan & Bonney, 2010). Fear motivates actions, aimed at reducing the unpleasant emotions, or undesirable effects. One of the actions that fear motivates, is knowledge or information that is collected of the phenomenon, or situation, or crisis, that causes the fear, or unpleasant feeling (Witte, 1992). For example, in a study conducted by Otoe and Kim (2018) on Hong Kong inbound tourism from 2003 to 2015, shows a significant decline in overall tourists' arrivals during several

The unfolding crisis has affected food systems1 and threatened people’s access to food via multiple dynamics. We have witnessed not only a major disruption to food supply chains in the wake of lockdowns triggered by the global health crisis, but also a major global economic slowdown. These crises have resulted in lower incomes and higher prices of some foods, putting food out of reach for many, and undermining the right to food and stalling efforts to meet Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2: “Zero hunger.” The situation is fluid and dynamic, characterized by a high degree of uncertainty. According to the World Health Organization, the worst effects are yet to come (Ghebreyesus, 2020; Khorsandi, 2020). Most health analysts predict that this virus will continue to circulate for a least one or two more years (Scudellari, 2020. 1. HOW COVID-19 IS AFFECTING FOOD SECURITY AND NUTRITION COVID-19 is a respiratory illness and there is no evidence that food itself is a vector of its transmission (ICMSF, 2020). However, the virus, and measures to contain its spread, have had profound implications for food security, nutrition and food systems. At the same time, malnutrition (including obesity) increases vulnerability to COVID-19. Initial and ongoing uncertainty surrounding the nature of the spread of COVID-19 led to the implementation of strict lockdown and physical distancing policies in a number of countries. These measures caused a serious slowdown in economic activity and disrupted supply chains, unleashing new dynamics with cascading effects on food systems and people’s food security and nutrition. Below we outline these dynamics. We then highlight how these trends are affecting the six dimensions of food security proposed by the HLPE in its 15th report—availability, access, utilization, stability, agency and sustainability—which are essential for ensuring the right to food (HLPE, 2020b). 19)Website: https://www.google.co.in/amp/s/www.thehindu.com/life-and-style/food/food- photography-emerges-as-a-popular-covid-19-lockdown-activity/article32504673.ece/amp/ Time: 9:00am

The current article explores the food systems in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. It provides insights about the properties of bioactive ingredients of foods and herbs for the support of the human immune system against infections before discussing the possibility of COVID-19 transmission through the food chain. It also highlights the global food security issues arising from the fact that one-third of the world’s population is on lockdown. Finally, it underlines the importance of sustainability in the food chain in order to avoid or reduce the frequency of relevant food and health crises in the future. 21)Website: https://minerva- access.unimelb.edu.au/bitstream/handle/11343/249359/Restrict,%20clean%20and%20protect - %20Signalling%20consumer%20safety%20during%20the%20pandemic%20and%20beyond. pdf?sequence=4 Time: Restrict, clean and protect: Signalling consumer safety during the pandemic and beyond The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a sharp, steep economic shock and a profound disruption to all service industries.

Over the last decades, the number of internet users have drastically increased (Cop, 2016). Social media has become a natural part of everyday life. It has made communicating with friends, family and companies easier than before as it is accessible almost everywhere through Internet connection with the help of different devices such as laptops, tablets and smartphones (Terttunen, 2017). Instagram is a social networking application, which allows its users to share photos and videos from a smartphone. It is a first social media site built specifically to work on mobile device. A mobile device refers to any type of mobile phone or similar device such as iPod touch, iPad or other tablet that uses cellular technology (Miles 2014, 4.). Photo sharing communities such as Instagram have made it possible to communicate with large groups of distributed people through an image, be it a picture of what is for dinner or a selfie, perhaps more easily than through words alone (Bakhsh, Shame, & Gilbert, 2014, p. 965). One of the aspects that makes Instagram unique is that it is not a web-based social media platform, but a mobile-based platform, which means it generates a certain type of image posting and interaction from its users (McNealy, 2012). 24)Website: https://oaktrust.library.tamu.edu/bitstream/handle/1969.1/188174/Newly%20Paul%20 %28QAB%20Entry%20%2334%29.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y Time:12.30am
  • 28. 28 28 Food for the soul: How immigrants use food blogs to heal during times of crisis Food is a powerful medium that brings people together. Some express their love for others by cooking for them. Some who are bothered by the chaos of the outside world find a sense of calm in the order and method involved in cooking. Then there are others, such as me, who read food blogs and watch food-related videos. We derive immense pleasure in watching complex dishes come together in under three minutes. Food blogs are therapeutic for me. I subscribe to several, but the ones closest to my heart are those that demonstrate Indian cooking. While I am an adventurous eater, during times of crisis I tend to fall back on comfort food from my country of birth. I find it calming to taste familiar flavours that remind me of my childhood home and the warmth and love of my family. During the shutdown caused by the pandemic, one particular Indian food blog, Bongo’s Cookbook, has been my go-to for coping with the ongoing sense of dread and uncertainty in the world. 25)Website: https://brd.gov.md/sites/default/files/webform/attachments/pdf-optimize- how-to-attract-and-engage-more-customers-by-integrating-lee-odden-pdf-download- free-book-079611f.pdf Time:10.am How to attract and engage more customers by integrating SEO, social media, and content marketing Optimize offers a proven customer-centric and adaptive online marketing strategy that incorporates the best of content, social media marketing, and search engine optimization tactics.

We used regression analysis to analyse quantitative scores of 10,136 restaurant reviews collected from an online life community in China, and found that food quality, price and value, service quality, and atmosphere are the antecedents of restaurant customers’ revisit intention, and that restaurant type moderates the effect of customer satisfaction with service quality, atmosphere, and price and value on revisit intention. We also used text mining technology to identify detailed evaluation indicators in each dimension and explore customers’ evaluation behaviour characteristics. We found that food quality and, price and value have four indicators while service quality and atmosphere have two indicators. The results are useful for restaurant operators to take effective actions to attract more customers to revisit. 27)website: https://www.bmj.com/content/343/bmj.d4464 Time:11.00pm Changes in energy content of lunchtime purchases from fast food restaurants after introduction of calorie labelling: cross sectional customer surveys Obesity prevalence in the United States is at an all-time high for both adults and children; the most recent data report that a third of adults and 17% of children and teenagers are obese.1 2 In an effort to refocus the fight against obesity, elected officials and public health professionals are shifting towards legislative policies that alter the food environment to facilitate healthier nutritional choices.3 Among such initiatives are soda taxes, restrictions on food marketing to children, updating nutrition guidelines for schools and public procurement, regulation of vending machines, and moratoria on licensing fast food establishments.4 5 6 Requiring chain restaurants to print the energy content of their meals is one such intervention. Since New York City’s regulation was passed in 2006, which required chain restaurants to include the calorific value for all items on menus and menu boards, other US jurisdictions have introduced similar policies.7 The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, approved in March 2010, will require calorie labelling at chain restaurants nationwide. In the United Kingdom, 28 organisations have pledged to implement similar labelling in 2011 as part of the Department of Health’s voluntary Responsibility Deal programme.8 These include some food chains that have been required to provide calorie labels in New York City. 28)website: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=related:Ob969v1nL- 4J:scholar.google.com/&hl=en&as_sdt=0,5#d=gs_qabs&u=%23p%3DINWavIGMUOw J Time:4.00pm Tasting the digital: New food media On an average night in 2015, around 10,000 people tuned into the P2P live video streaming website Africa TV to watch a young Korean man, Lee Chang-hymn, eat his dinner in front of

But many marketing professionals often wonder if the time and effort that goes into blogging will draw a significant enough return to justify the investment. We at Oracle Retail advocate for property or branded blogs for a variety of reasons, but suggest that hotels consider not only how the blog can impact and enhance their overall marketing strategy but also if they are good candidates for the platform. In this first post in the three-part series, we’ll explore the key benefits for a hotel or brand- based blog. 30)Website: https://www.hotelogix.com/blog/2014/06/30/5-reasons-why-your-hotel- needs-a-blog/ Time:6.45pm 5 Reasons Why your Hotel Needs a Blog Blogs can bring new customers: Believe it or not, blogs are a great way to get new customers to your website. A blog brings in different set of customers and it also encourages visitors to keep returning for new blog content. Blogs are a great way to attract visitors who use search engines for information on specific hotels, therefore, making your website a reliable source for new customers. Blogs keep your website fresh on content: If you churn out fresh content regularly via blogs then your website will surely find its way up in Google’s rankings. Search engines usually look for fresh and interesting content and if you stop publishing it then your website will become stagnant and your rankings will automatically decrease. So, blogs work as a rescue mechanism to keep your site fresh and content rich. Blogs help create an identity: Blogs are the easiest way to create a strong identity in the hospitality industry. If you don’t post any information, then you don’t even exist in the market. Therefore, use blogs to your fullest advantage to share all hotel related information and create a strong identity for your brand in the market. Blogs help develop relationships: Since people are growing to be net

So you can build relations with your guests through blogs by answering their queries through blogs. Another benefit is that if you answer a popular question then it will become easier for others who are looking for the same question on search engines. In essence, you’re providing an answer not to just one person but many others.
