My very enjoyable role on the committee includes selecting and managing our much valued sponsors. This involves introducing the products and services of selected specialist hospitality companies to the top hoteliers of luxury hotels that attend the Annual Master Innholders Conference and black tie dinner. Organised by General Managers for General Managers, the intent is to position the sponsors' messages in an engaging, useful, informative yet non intrusive way so as to excite interest, encourage new ideas and successfully blend in with the audience. All monies raised through sponsorship contributes to the Master Innholders scholarship programme. Our sponsors, most of which are longterm and loyal supporters, network to maximum effect in a relaxed and informal environment and in doing so, learn of new developments and win business. "Top benefits to us of being a sponsor are definitely the increased visibility amongst senior people from our existing customers, the opportunity to introduce our company and brand to new potential customers. We received some real leads to deal with straight away!”
