A Sales Guy

Ego is a silent killer of sales and marketing teams. Our incessant compunction to talk about ourselves, our products and our accolades is crushing our ability to connect with our prospects and deliver valuable customer-centric information.

Getting A Rush Out Of Your Job

Experience Hotel

Depuis 2 ans, j’entends de nombreux hôteliers se plaindre de la “concurrence déloyale” et du “désastre pour l’hôtellerie” que représente Airbnb. Mais pour la première fois hier, un de mes amis hôteliers a soulevé cette question finalement très pertinente : “Et si l’avenir de l’hôtellerie indépendante était sur Airbnb ! ” Surprenant n’est-ce pas ? Et pourtant l’opinion est bien légitime.
