A document outlines a possible customer discovery path for a hotel using various digital touchpoints. It shows that a hotel like Morgans could engage customers through its website, LinkedIn, Facebook, Tumblr, YouTube, Instagram, Google+, Twitter, and Pinterest accounts. The likely customer discovery path would involve using all of these digital channels to reach existing and potential customers.
1) Marketing is the process of planning and executing various activities involved in moving a product or service from a manufacturer to a consumer. It includes designing the product, determining its price, promoting and distributing it.
2) Marketing management involves choosing target markets and creating, delivering and communicating superior customer value to get, keep and grow customers.
3) The marketing environment comprises factors outside of the firm's control that influence marketing decision making, including social, demographic, economic, technological, political and competitive conditions. Changes in the external environment can impact marketing strategies.
The present perfect tense uses have/has + past participle to indicate an action that began in the past and has relevance to the present. It can be used positively to relate ongoing or recent situations, negatively with haven't/hasn't, or in questions with have/has. Time expressions like just, already, or yet are often used with the present perfect to provide additional context about the timing or completion of an action.
Reputation management involves understanding and influencing how individuals and businesses are perceived. While search results online are important, personal experiences and word of mouth are also significant sources of reputation. To maintain a good online reputation, companies should participate proactively through communication and address issues promptly to prevent lost opportunities. Reputation management is generally a shared responsibility involving multiple departments within a company.
The document discusses how online customer reviews and reputation directly impact key financial metrics like hotel pricing, occupancy, and revenue per available room (RevPAR). Recent research from Cornell University confirms that positive online customer satisfaction leads to better hotel performance. Revenue managers must now factor reputation scores and social media mentions into pricing strategies to maximize financial gains. Customer reviews published on review sites and social networks can increase or decrease a hotel's perceived value and influence purchase decisions, translating directly to changes in demand, pricing power, and overall profits.
The document discusses several digital marketing strategies including online travel agencies (OTAs) that allow customers to book hotels and flights online, search engine optimization (SEO) and search engine marketing (SEM) techniques to increase website visibility, interactive campaigns that engage customers through social media and real-world experiences, and direct booking which allows customers to book directly with hotels and cruise lines without a third party travel agent. Examples are provided for each strategy.

Break Even Analysis
Tsorakidis et al. (2011) define break even analysis as a point at which the total cost equates the total revenue. Break-even point analysis helps in determining the number of units or amount of revenue required to cover the total costs- fixed costs and variable costs. Fruity Surprise’s break even analysis indicates that the business will have to sell 2,824 units of beverages to cover its total costs. At the break-even point of 2,824 units the total revenue equates the total costs at $28,240. Fixed costs stand at $15,530 while variable cost amounts to $12,708.
