Infor: “Has my crystal ball stopped working?”\nA frequent discussion with hoteliers is the unpredictability of the market and the changing behaviour of their guests. It is becoming harder to predict what will happen in the coming months.\nWeeks that would normally be busy appear quieter\, whilst weeks that are expected to be slow fill with unexpected demand. Guests seem to behave in ways that they never used to before. The change is blamed on many things: ease of booking\, transparency of supply\, the OTAs and even the millennials. Is there anything we can do to make our business easier to forecast?\nThe answer is YES. Let us share some insights on how to better forecast your business and how to better understand your guest’s behaviour.Niels Mekenkamp\, ‎Director Hospitality Pre-Sales – EMEA – ‎Infor\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2.

Agile pricing is one of many ways hotels are now able to price – by person\, all inclusive\, agile\, BAR by XYZ … ultimately the journey is to offer consumers the relevant\, granular and personalized choices during their shop and booking path\, and pricing needs to follow accordingly.Neil Corr\, Senior Consultant\, EMEA\, IDeaS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5.

SUMMARY:Breakfast seminar "How to reach the Chinese market better"
DESCRIPTION:HSMAI Region Europe invites you to a seminar on\nHow to reach the Chinese market better\n Hilton Berlin at the Executive Lounge on Thursday March 8th\n 8.30 AM – 11 AM\nWith 1.38 billion people and the economy growing at 6.7% (source: World Bank); and with only 6% of the population had passports in 2016 (source: Forbes) surely it is a huge market where the European hospitality industry can target. Still it is a misconception that China is an easy market.\nAt HSMAI\, we are putting together a special presentation on this interesting topic\, especially 2018 is the official China-EU Tourism Year.\nWe will cover: \n\nThe potential of the market\nThe latest trend (the image of everyone coming in tour groups\, following someone holding a yellow flag\, and visiting 7 countries in 5 days is no longer valid)\nOvercoming the barrier of the Great Firewall of China\nUtilising Chinese social media (especially Weibo and WeChat) to connect with Chinese audience\nEstablishing a bullet-proof website inside China\nGet “visible” in China\n\nBy Cho Wong and Deiv Salutskij from Compass Edge Europe \nMore about Cho Wong: Before establishing Compass Edge Europe last December\, Cho Wong was the MD of Supranational Hotels. He was heavily involved in building a team of account managers and sales managers to support the GDS and distribution/RFP services for hotels. Cho was also Sales Director at Pegasus Solutions and GM of a Sino British hotel booking service – SHTJ in Beijing. Cho was trained as a civil engineer but because of his interests in hospitality\, he successfully completed the Revenue Management certification by HSMAI. \n  \n  \n  \n \nMore about Deiv Salutskij: Deiv has more than 40 years in the hospitality industry in four continents with Internationally known chains like Hilton\, Sheraton\,IHG\, Ramada Hotels and private hotels in v \narious management positions as well as General Manager positions. His network among tour operators is truly international covering the most important markets for the Nordics in the Far East\, Middle East\, Europe and the US. He has also been heavily involved in establishing GDS (Global Distribution Channels like Amadeus\, Sabre\, Gallileo and alike in Restel). He is the past Global President of Cornell Hotel Society and presently the President of Finland\, Russia and the Baltics and thru this network able to stay up to date with our industry´s latest trends. \nHSMAI has reserved the Boardroom at the Executive Lounge at the Hilton Berlin. We have limited space there for just 10 guests at each seminar so we will offer the seminar twice. \nJoin the breakfast seminar at 8:30 AM with breakfast first and we continue with the seminar until 11.00 AM Q & A included. \nIt is free to attend if you are working directly in the hotel and travel industry. We will also do this seminar in Amsterdam on March 20th and in Oslo on May 24th. Other cities coming up soon. \nPlease note: Your attendance to this event is free of charge\, but not entirely without obligation. If you register\, we expect you to attend.
